[Criminal investigation, the arrogant and loyal dog wolf dog × the cold, dignified, sick and beautiful woman, the two strong men doted on each other, and they reunited] Five years ago, Yan Guici, the most famous genius scholar in University C, left without saying goodbye. Five years later, he returned from the air as a top special consultant. He looked cold and dignified, and his IQ still topped the crowd, but he had a "sick beauty" physique that could collapse at the slightest wind and suffer from stomachache at any time. As luck would have it, the person responsible for cooperating with his partner was none other than the old acquaintance he cruelly abandoned back then - the now resolute and hot-tempered captain, He Wenxiao. When they met for the first time, Captain He made sarcastic remarks, but Yan Guici turned a blind eye. Everyone in the bureau thought the two were incompatible and mortal enemies. Until one day after working overtime - everyone saw with their own eyes that the irritable He team member who threatened to "do business business" wrapped a heavy coat around Consultant Yan's thin shoulders with a dark face, holding a cup of freshly soaked warm honey water in his hand, and coaxed in a low voice: "Ancestor, can you take the stomach medicine first and then read the documents?" They had promised to be strangers, but in the end they became personal caretakers who entered the room. They promised to be selfless, but in the end they turned into never-ending partiality and protection of shortcomings. Yan Guici thought he would walk alone among many mysteries, but he never expected that the seemingly wild and untamable man had actually been waiting for him for five years, broke into his world again without any explanation, and faced all the ups and downs with him. This is an evenly matched reunion after a long absence, and it is also an absolute preference for warmth and healing. Go round and round, as long as it is you, my heart will be moved no matter how many times.

He only served as emperor for one day, and allowed his substitute to go south and be captured. He then led three thousand remnants of his troops north to face hunger and cold, snowy fields, white-haired wind, no food, wolves... There was no golden finger, only survival in a desperate situation. At the same time, Zhu Qiyu was in the capital, watching the treasury empty, and guarding the country with Yu Qian.
