A Hong Kong power player × a pampered, headstrong princess from Beijing’s elite circle
Jin Xiaocheng is a scion of one of Hong Kong’s most powerful families, the true authority at the top of the city’s elite. At 26, he exudes an intimidating air that warns strangers to stay away. When he was 23, his parents divorced for good after their interests drove them apart. His father promptly married his new love and brought his stepmother and her daughter into the Jin family’s main residence. Jin had never felt attached to this false, hypocritical household, and he had nothing but contempt for the “new family” that had suddenly barged into his life.
Wen Si, the stepsister his stepmother brought with her, is 24, a pampered, headstrong princess from Beijing’s elite circle. Raised as the apple of everyone’s eye, she is willful, dazzling, bold, and carefree, with a fierce streak and ambition to match anyone’s. She fears nothing: neither the strict rules of the Jin household nor its widely revered young heir. She even dares to openly compete with him for the Jin family inheritance, eyeing both the family fortune and the seat of power. In front of outsiders, they are a close and harmonious pair of step-siblings, affectionate enough that no one could find fault with their behavior. But they alone know the truth: in private, they are ruthless, calculating at every step, and tacitly regard each other as their most dangerous opponent. They constantly undermine and check one another, yet when Shen Yinqiu arrives, they have no choice but to join forces and eliminate their formidable rival.
