Rongxin Technology, a hundred-billion-yuan AI and new energy giant, is a top-tier star of Shanghai’s business world. Beneath its polished exterior, however, lie undercurrents of power struggles and family secrets. The Lin family of Suzhou, a respected family of antique book restorers with generations of tradition, cannot withstand the tide of the times and is left ruined and bereft.
Lin Weiyu, the last descendant of the Lin family, brings a collection of rare books concealing shocking secrets to Rongxin. Her fingertips can restore thousand-year-old manuscripts, but the family vendetta in her heart remains unresolved. Cool and aloof, sensitive yet resilient, she finds that only Jia Yunchen, Rongxin’s heir, can understand the obsession and purity in her eyes.
Jia Yunchen is the sole heir to Rongxin’s hundred-billion-yuan fortune, yet a “spirit-communing chip” has trapped him in the chess game of capital. He despises the coldness of business and is devoted to traditional aesthetics. Lin Weiyu is the only light in his dark life. Their bond is a soulmate’s salvation, but a match made for wealth and status is a shackle of family interests forced upon them.
Xue Zhiyu, the daughter of the Xue family’s biotech empire, arrives with a flawless plan for a commercial marriage. Her Cold Fragrance Pill can soothe emotions, but not her greed for power. Wang Xifeng, Rongxin’s true power behind the throne, is ruthless and embezzles public funds, driving the family toward the abyss. Grandmother Shi, the elder who built a business empire, can preserve its wealth and glory, but not keep its people from turning against one another.
When the secrets hidden in antique books collide with AI algorithms, and traditional ideals meet the fangs of capital, a battle among the wealthy begins in secret. A bride-swapping conspiracy at a wedding, family secrets hidden in ancient books, the truth about the power behind the chip: layer by layer, everything is revealed, all of it
