This is a story about two lonely souls who meet amid turbulent times, stay by each other’s side, and rewrite their fates together.
A transmigrated woman scientist × a restrained young prince
Lin Qi is no traditional, refined young lady. Armed with a modern mindset and principles, she speaks plainly, acts decisively, and never follows convention. In the inner household’s schemes, she uses psychology to analyze her opponents. In business, she applies modern commercial ideas to outclass the competition. And in courtly power struggles, she uses her knowledge of economics to help Xiao Cheng implement new policies.
As for Xiao Cheng, the young man who has borne a blood feud since the age of fifteen, he is cold and ruthless in front of others. But only with Lin Qi can he be the boy who acts spoiled and admits when he’s tired. He has two faces: one for the world, and one only for her.
The story of two lonely people, beginning in a secluded courtyard
In her previous life, Lin Qi was an orphan who spent countless nights alone in the lab. Xiao Cheng’s birth mother died young, and he had to tread carefully at every turn in the imperial palace. Both were accustomed to loneliness, but in that remote courtyard, they felt the warmth of someone looking out for them for the first time.
Lin Qi says, “You’re the little wolf cub I rescued.”
Xiao Cheng says, “In front of Sister, I’ll always be that boy from the courtyard.”
Business × romance × political intrigue
This story is about more than romance. Lin Qi’s business ventures, Xiao Cheng’s struggle for the throne, and their battles side by side make up its three central storylines. She opens shops, starts a newspaper, introduces paper money, and builds a bank. He bides his time, plans every move, and ultimately ascends the throne. They are each other’s weakness, and each other’s armor.
