A devoted couple, a love forced upon them, a heroine who lies through her teeth, and a cool beauty of a hero driven to madness.
Bai Hui has never been very lucky. Just after starting college, she is diagnosed with a terminal illness. She goes skydiving to lift her spirits, only to get caught in an air disaster.
When things reach their worst, they can only get better. At last, luck is on her side.
The good news: She survives.
The news that may or may not be good: She seems to have transmigrated.
Trapped in a primeval forest, Bai Hui happens upon Nan Xunzhou, who has been ambushed by assassins and gravely wounded.
Desperate to escape, she takes advantage of his predicament and half-forces him into a mutually beneficial hire agreement: they will work together until they make it out of the forest.
After enduring one peril after another, Bai Hui finally escapes the forest with the demanding young master. She even turns her misfortune into a blessing and finds the medicine she needs to stay alive.
But she never expected that, because she is so capable, her temporary employer Nan Xunzhou would ask her to stay by his side before he left.
Poverty cannot sway her, and wealth cannot corrupt her. Bai Hui refuses without hesitation.
What she never considered was that she was dealing with an aristocratic young nobleman raised in a feudal society, a member of the ruling class who had never even heard of human rights.
She could refuse, but he had the right to take what he wanted.
From then on, after carelessly provoking someone she should never have crossed, Bai Hui's struggle to survive is beset with twists and turns.
Nan Xunzhou is the son of Princess Fengxiao, the Empress Dowager's own daughter and the Emperor's younger sister of the Great Yan Dynasty.
