Newly crowned Best Actress Shen Yuege is accidentally electrocuted on awards night, and her soul transmigrates to Shanghai in the 1930s.
From the start, it's hell mode: her reputation is in tatters, she's been blacklisted, and a famous actress has framed her and plans to disfigure her and sink her in the river!
At the critical moment, she stakes her life to stop the car of Mo Tingchen, the most powerful man in Shanghai.
Facing this cold, ruthless man with overwhelming power, Shen Yuege wipes away her tears and stands tall. "Mr. Mo, save me. My life is yours."
From then on, she becomes the canary in his cage, and also his sharpest blade.
She takes on rival actresses, starts a company, and creates box office miracles. With acting skills and intelligence from the future, Shen Yuege carves a path through these glittering, chaotic times, turning all of Shanghai upside down.
Mo Tingchen thinks he has merely found an amusing plaything, but without realizing it, he engraves her stubborn figure in his heart.
When the secret of her transmigration intertwines with a family blood feud, the conspiracy comes to light.
He pins her against the wall, his gaze burning and dangerous. "Tell me, who are you really?"
She rises onto her toes and whispers in his ear. "I'm your leading lady, and your accomplice."
This romance begins as a deal in turbulent times. In the end, they become each other's one and only refuge.
