Ancient-to-modern transmigration: 1v1, happy ending
Lou Jingmo, the Great Chu dynasty’s most unyielding historian, suddenly transmigrates to the modern era and takes over a documentary magazine on the verge of bankruptcy.
Faced with assassination attempts and a crackdown by unscrupulous capitalists, she picks up her fountain pen and writes her first viral exposé.
From then on, The Daily Lives of the Modern Elite becomes a blade hanging over the heads of the capital’s powerful families. Corruption, smuggling, human beings sold like mystery boxes... the privileged beg for mercy through the night. Only the capital’s ruthless “living King of Hell,” Jing Suihan, forces her way into the fray with a trillion in capital, becoming her strongest shield.
Her left knee hurts on rainy days. She fills her teacup only seven-tenths full. When someone serves her tea, she taps the cup twice with her fingers.
Step by step, Lou Jingmo probes her and realizes that inside the body of this modern tycoon lives the Great Chu princess who ordered her beheaded a thousand years ago!
Then a black obsidian sarcophagus from Great Chu is unearthed in the southern suburbs.
On a live television broadcast, a modern signature in bold, wild calligraphy is clearly carved into the bottom of the thousand-year-old stone coffin: Jing Suihan’s. In the mud at the bottom of the coffin, a tattered wooden cangue, once worn by a death-row prisoner, is tightly wrapped in a crimson robe symbolizing the highest imperial authority.
The deadly schemes of their past lives crash into the conspiracies of the present.
Lou Jingmo grabs her by the collar, her eyes reddening. “Princess, you were the one who had me killed back then. Why are you the one building my tomb now, too?”
