After a brain-medicine product that could change humanity hits the market, a once-cherished genius is thrown into an asylum.
Her monstrous genius of a younger sister becomes a vegetable, and her parents disappear after falling into the water.
What began as the launch of a new technology sets global forces stirring beneath the surface, all hunting her down.
The powerful elite of the capital watch as the once-untouchable genius lives in a shack at a construction site, selling pancakes at a stall, carrying cement, delivering food, and driving for hire...
The people who once grovelled before her laugh: "At last, the moon up in the heavens has fallen into the mud, where anyone can bully her!"
Yet every time they try to bully her, they end up on their knees, crying, "Spare me, Grandpa!"
Jiang Longmian: "Ever heard of filial piety? Even if Grandpa falls on hard times, he's still your grandpa."
Later, everyone watches as she rises from the bottom, step by step, and fights her way back to the throne.
The richest man puts on her shoes for her, China's most powerful forces protect her, foreign tycoons rush to offer her partnerships, and global bigwigs fight to get a chance to meet her...
Oh, and there's also her former archenemy, the lucky young master and crown prince of the capital's elite. Ever since she fell on hard times, he's been crying nonstop, making the whole capital's powerful families turn their lives upside down to serve her.
Gu Yenian: "You think I'm dead, her childhood friend and archenemy? I was only pretending to bully her so she'd look at me! How dare you actually bully her?!"
