Nineteen-year-old Zhu Baoer went to England at the age of nine. Ten years later, he returned to his hometown of Beijing and lived in the Wen Family Courtyard.
She came here for the Hanfu culture.
Her parents died young in the millennium plane crash. She grew up in the discipline of a British aristocratic girls' school, but she always used "eccentricity" to hide her longing for her parents. Hanfu is the last stronghold deep in her soul.
She was going to apply for the School of Archeology and Museology at Teito University. Her uncle scolded her for being "unpopular" and "unkind", but she just took one step at a time and nailed herself into the door called love.
Wen Yanqing is her "cell boss".
Thirty years old, business elite, founder of "Zhilan Technology" and controller of Wenshi Capital. He is cold and restrained, like a precision-operated machine, and does not allow anyone to disturb his order. She is his "troublesome spirit", quirky and heartless, who makes his courtyard a mess.
But he saw her eyes as she stayed up until early morning at her desk, saw her talking to history after putting on Hanfu, and saw her seriousness in thinking over and over again for an email. That "precious" girl turns out to be serious.
He started to stew rock sugar pear for her.
Along the way in Xitang, she knelt before her parents' souls and shed tears for ten years. Only then did he realize that underneath her "heartless" smile was a lonely man who grew up licking his wounds.
She wants to restore the makeup and flower gauze of the Ming Dynasty and let more people see the beauty of Hanfu. Insufficient funding, doubts from scholars, ridicule from conservatives... She fell down and got up again, and he silently held an umbrella behind her, repairing the wall she had broken down where she couldn't see it.
She is his "rich flower in the world", and he is her "Mount Tai" who is solid and down-to-earth.
