Su Wan inherits a dilapidated old house and accidentally discovers the secret of traveling both ways between the past and present.
On one side is a modern inn on the verge of closing. On the other is the outskirts of Xianyang in the twenty-eighth year of Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s reign.
No System, no pocket dimension. Her only golden finger is a door that lets her travel between the two worlds.
Fine salt and white sugar transform coarse, meager meals. Cotton cloth and soap amaze the people of Great Qin.
With clean rooms, hot noodle soup, braised snacks, and pastries, she turns a rundown house into Xianyang’s finest inn.
Merchants come and go, alchemists take a seat, and even Xu Fu, who is about to meet the emperor, stops by to rest.
Prince Fusu is gentle as jade, yet time and again he draws his sword to protect her:
“Wherever Su Wan is, that’s where I’ll stay.”
She seeks no power, makes no bid for the throne, and wants no part in court politics.
With nothing but modern supplies, she thrives in Great Qin.
Her modern guesthouse becomes a hit, and her ancient inn becomes legendary.
Gold and silver in one hand, the man she loves in the other: both worlds are full of the warmth of everyday life.
“I came from another world, not to change my fate, but to live in peace and find a safe home year after year.”
