When financial whiz Lin Xiao and wealthy playboy Gu Yan wake up in a hotel and discover that their souls have switched bodies, a life-upending game of mistaken identities begins.
In Gu Yan’s body, Lin Xiao makes one call to short her family’s stock and deftly navigates the battlefield of high finance. Trapped in the body of a poor academic prodigy, Gu Yan clumsily handles a plagiarism scandal, only to glimpse an abyss that money cannot reach.
They share memories, but carry each other’s secrets: he fears his family will treat him as a discarded pawn, while she longs to escape the mire of her upbringing.
As Gu Yan’s unfathomable older brother, Gu Chengze, closes in, and wave after wave of financial warfare and family intrigue drags them into a deadly game of chess
They must wager everything:
Live on in each other’s identities,
Fight their way out using each other’s skills,
And, before their souls return to their rightful bodies,
Win this all-or-nothing gamble!
If they’re exposed, they’ll be torn to pieces; if they succeed, they’ll be reborn from the ashes.
