Wu Shiyanzhi and Tong Sanshui are the heirs of the Wu family and the Tong family, which monopolize half of the business world. They are also rivals engraved in their bones - a three-generation feud that has made the two families at odds with each other and pushed them into the competition since they were young. They are all academic masters who are unattainable in the eyes of others. They compete with each other with words and scores, and never give in even a single point. The feud is hard to break, and the love is secretly born. The two young men standing at the top of the pyramid, in the starlight of Northern Qing Dynasty, are bound by the shackles of family grudges on one side, and the involuntary heartbeat on the other. Where will this entanglement that started with a fight go in the end?
