Zhao Qingyue was reborn before her family collapsed, only to find chaos all around her.
Her wastrel younger brother was about to sign away his freedom. Her "gravely ill" father had withdrawn from public life, and their enemies were sharpening their knives.
She tore up the contract, froze the family assets, and seized control with an iron hand.
Everyone thought the eldest daughter of the Zhao family had gone mad, including her father's haggard figure in a wheelchair.
That was until Shen Zhenguo, the newly appointed governor, arrived and took aim at "certain families" during a high-level meeting.
Zhao Qingyue stood and answered him in front of everyone: "Governor Shen, Jiangdong needs integrity and a clean breeze, but not a gale that harms the innocent."
That night, the hospital room door closed.
Zhao Guohua slowly rose from his wheelchair and opened a secret room. The walls were covered with chessboards mapping out Jiangdong and the whole country.
He turned, his gaze sharp as lightning.
"Qingyue, you've done well."
"But you haven't seen the real game yet."
"Because..."
"Dad was reborn too, and I've lived twenty years longer than you."
From then on, his daughter wielded a bright sword, battling in the business world and strengthening the nation through technology;
her father played the hidden pieces, planning from behind the scenes and upholding what was right with wisdom.
From one corner of Jiangdong to the international stage,
from the survival of a family to shouldering the responsibility of an era.
