[A cold-blooded, ruthless female strategist × a carefree, fiercely protective, scheming young general]
Childhood sweethearts, dual identities, and a reversal of fortune + extreme push-and-pull, love and rivalry + two powerful Alphas joining forces
/
In her previous life, Chu Zhaozhao, the Prime Minister’s legitimate daughter, was a spoiled young noblewoman whose heart belonged entirely to the reserved, clever young general Gu Muzhou. Then came a winter day when she was sixteen, with rain pouring down. As she lay in a pool of blood, she watched the Gu army wipe out her entire family. Her hatred was so intense that it pierced her heart like ten thousand arrows, and she died.
Reborn at the age of ten, Chu Zhaozhao buries all her innocence and brightness, becoming a cold and ruthless strategist who leaves nothing to chance. In this life, she swears to protect the Chu family at all costs!
But why is Gu Muzhou so different in this life? The reserved, restrained boy has become a lazy, black-robed troublemaker with a vicious, cruel streak at his core.
Open and covert attacks, an intense game of push-and-pull amid deadly rivalries. At first, he watches from the sidelines with amused detachment. But as he sees the prickly girl risk her life, treading carefully through one deadly predicament after another, the coldhearted master of the game is finally the first to lose his composure.
Only when the wounds of the past are ripped open does Chu Zhaozhao realize in horror that someone else betrayed the Chu family in the rain that day.
The deadly game begins again, and the flames return. Beneath a sky ablaze with red, the man who has no memories of his previous life fights by her side through mountains of corpses amid the carnage. She uses every calculation at her disposal to tear open a path from certain doom; he wields his bloodied saber to cut down every enemy in their way. He grins, arrogant and carefree. “Chu Zhaozhao, now that you’re aboard my pirate ship, the sky itself can’t fall on us.”
