Set in the world of the TV series The Magic Sword and the Chess of Life and Death, this story follows the original heroine, Shen Nanxin, and Ren Qianxing, the series’ villainous second male lead. They stand by each other, choose one another without hesitation, help each other fulfill their ambitions, and join forces to sweep aside every obstacle. In the end, they uncover the plots and schemes, unravel the secrets of the Chess of Life and Death, and fulfill their long-held wishes.
Neither lead is a good person. They always get even, and do whatever they please. Please don’t read if that’s not your thing. (A heads-up: the story mainly focuses on the leads’ perspectives, but it also mentions events unfolding at the same time, so it may be hard to follow if you haven’t seen the show.)
