After transmigrating a thousand times, Lin Ya is on the verge of completing his "ultimate mission" and retiring in peace to the modern city. But who could have guessed that his direct superior, female CEO Su Qingyue, is the sworn enemy he's crossed paths with over several lifetimes?
From that moment on, his retirement KPIs go completely off track:
The System tells him to "win the heroine's sympathy and make her cry." He throws himself into the role, but she splashes red wine in his face in front of everyone. "Had enough of pretending?"
The System tells him to "sabotage her important project." He steels himself and does it, but she turns the mess into an opportunity for promotion, then gives him a raise and promotion herself while keeping an even closer eye on him.
Just as the burned-out Lin Ya wants nothing more than to "get this over with," the System delivers a fatal warning: "If you fail the mission, you will be bound to Su Qingyue and transmigrated into a matriarchal world. You will be her consort, and she will be the emperor!"
Lin Ya: "...!! I think there's still time to save this!"
And so, under the domineering CEO's death glare, a veteran transmigrator fights one ridiculous performance review battle after another in the modern workplace. When memories from a thousand years ago awaken, they discover that this epic love-hate relationship is the most heartfelt salvation fate could have written for them.
