Ling Wei and Su Jin have been bitter rivals for twenty years, ever since they met at the orphanage. One has overwhelming strength but is impulsive and reckless; the other is brilliant but frail and calculating. A sudden struggle over an unexpected prize sends them both transmigrating to an unfamiliar ancient world.
A hellish start? One becomes a disgraced young lady on the run, the other a penniless servant with no legal identity? Wrong! They’re back together in another world, where they’re bound to cross paths!
Forced to stick together, they must set aside their modern-day grudges (for now) and figure out how to survive in an unfamiliar era where the rules are everything. One handles “physical persuasion,” the other “intellectual domination.” From setting up a street stall to getting caught up in political turmoil, they make ancient life “unforgettable.”
Then, while standing up for someone in trouble, they unexpectedly save a dying old man, only to get their hands on a ledger detailing embezzlement in the grain transport system, a book capable of stirring up a storm! They instantly switch from survival mode to hell difficulty, becoming targets hunted by every faction.
From Qingchuan to Linzhou, from the streets to the imperial court. The cold-faced magistrate’s son, the smiling but scheming prefect, the mysterious “Starfall Pavilion”... One character after another appears. Old wrongful convictions, shocking conspiracies, hidden treasures from a previous dynasty... The truth is far more complicated and dangerous than they imagined.
Facing deadly threats and layers of mystery, the two modern-day rivals have no choice but to truly work together. “Don’t be scared, my fists make the rules!” “Shut up and follow my brain!”
Can they survive the treacherous struggle for power? Can they uncover the ultimate secret behind their transmigration? And can they find a place to call home together in this unfamiliar world?
