Office drone Lin Xiaoxiao transmigrates into the body of the Fourth Prince's principal consort. All she wants is to slack off in the Buddhist shrine and eat hot pot. But one night, her icy husband checks in on her and frowns at her watered-down sesame sauce: “Add vinegar to bring out the flavor!”
“Wait! Sesame sauce? That doesn't sound right!”
Her secret identity is about to be exposed! The probing escalates: she sends him the “996” code, and he replies with a fruit platter labeled “KPI.” She smashes a cup and snaps, “You call efficiency a blessing?” He sneers, “Still better than 007!” The truth is out! Inside the cold-faced Fourth Prince Yinzhen is a modern-day workaholic and investment banking mogul!
Fellow sufferers, you say? No! They're employees bound by a “Partnership Agreement”: he provides political protection and hot pot funds, while she supplies creative ideas and plays along. Their goal: get him on the throne efficiently, avoid working themselves to death, and try to live a little more comfortably! Her main demand? Hot pot whenever she wants! Two days a month when she's absolutely allowed to do nothing!
And so, the Qing palace takes a wild turn:
Smoke alarms going off in the Buddhist shrine? No big deal! A front-page gossip sheet in the capital makes the censors quit en masse!
The Eighth Prince's faction causes trouble? Postal couriers sing “The Delivery Song” as they quell the rebellion, then deliver packages nationwide!
The Eighth Prince is a shrewd operator? One copy of The Communist Manifesto persuades him to obsess over research into “surplus value”!
Weren't they supposed to be strategic partners? Then, on the night of an assassination attempt, he howls, covered in blood, “Lin Xiaoxiao! How can I live without you?”
The copper hot pot bubbles in the Buddhist shrine, and the cold-faced workaholic finally falls. Two transmigrators turn the script of the Nine Dragons' succession struggle upside down with hot pot dipping sauce and delivery slips! They agreed to work together to conquer the empire, so how did his lifelong contract end up saying, “I belong to you”?
[Double transmigration + bickering couple + career and romance] A hilarious, feel-good story of career and love. See how the laid-back consort leads the workaholic Fourth Prince astray!
