After Her Inner Power Awakened, the Brocade Guards Became Her Shield

A strange phenomenon in an underground palace in the thirteenth year of the Zhengde era sent Shen Yan, a Jinyiwei officer, tumbling from the bloodshed of the Ming dynasty into the concrete jungle of 2025. Without his flying-fish uniform or embroidered spring saber, unable to use a phone or drive a car, and lacking even an ID, the once-renowned palace guard could only pawn his jade pendant for instant noodles and sleep beneath a bridge. Eventually, he became an ordinary security guard at a Qinghe Group shopping mall.

He thought this strange world was just a place to scrape by. But when the group's heiress, Su Qingyuan, was cornered, instinct made him step in to help. Then, in a life-or-death crisis in the underground parking garage, his sealed inner strength awakened. He subdued four thugs in three moves, reviving the Jinyiwei's old instincts for combat and becoming the most dependable bodyguard at Su Qingyuan's side.

His old-fashioned sense of propriety clashes with the modern heiress's carefree nature, while the Jinyiwei code of loyal service meets the city's glittering nightlife. He learns to use WeChat and drive, and puts ancient martial arts to work against modern-day ambushes. She helps him fit into this world and keeps him safe. As they face one crisis after another side by side, he falls for her.

From a beggar beneath a bridge to her personal shield, from a stranger in another world to the one in her heart, their meeting across five centuries holds both the fiercest devotion and the sweetest romance: “Su Qingyuan, from this day on, you are the only person I care about in this world.”
