Tao Zi is an ordinary employee in the Heavenly Realm’s Reincarnation Bureau. She’s pretty but not much more than a decorative vase, and her abilities are nothing special.
By mistake, she assigns the wrong mortal identity to her bureau’s decisive, icy director, Jin Tinghan, for her trial in the lower realm.
She was supposed to get the life of a rich heiress, but instead becomes a poor woman on welfare with the same name.
To avoid Director Jin making her life miserable once she returns to the Heavenly Realm a hundred years later, Tao Zi has no choice but to get involved and become Jin Tinghan’s sidekick.
The first day they meet.
Tao Zi, nervous and stumbling over her words: “Um... I fell in love with you at first sight.”
Jin Tinghan, on full alert: “I’m not into women, thanks.”
The Nth day they meet.
Tao Zi: “Ugh, I don’t want any of this stuff, but it’d be such a waste to throw it away...”
Jin Tinghan, looking down at the brand-new smartphones, computers, and tablets: “I know a secondhand market...”
The NNth day they meet.
Tao Zi chases off a man who was trying to harass Jin Tinghan.
Jin Tinghan: “I’m a little scared. Could you stay with me tonight?”
The NNNth day they meet.
Jin Tinghan, looking pitiful: “This person keeps bothering me. Could you help me think of a way to deal with him? Maybe... pretend to be my girlfriend?”
Right up until the two of them end up in bed, Tao Zi thinks she’s done a great job protecting her boss and that her career prospects are looking bright.
The next day, after sobering up, Tao Zi realizes with dawning horror that she slept with Director Jin while she was in the lower realm for her trial. Wait, was that really all her fault?
But first things first: run.
One day in Heaven is a year in the lower realm. Tao Zi spends dozens of days in Heaven on tenterhooks, never expecting that after Director Jin returns, she won’t say a word about what happened below.
But...
Hasn’t Director Jin always refused to attend Heavenly Realm dances?
Is Director Jin really drinking and chatting with them?
Director Jin starts complaining about being abandoned by her girlfriend. She’s had a girlfriend? Wait, why does this story sound more and more familiar... Is she talking about me?!
Director Jin invites me to dance... Director Jin gets drunk, and I take her home... Director Jin... Why is my picture all over her house?!
Tao Zi turns to run, but the door clicks shut behind her. Jin Tinghan throws her onto the sofa, her voice cold enough to freeze.
“Let’s settle the score now. Tell me, can we be done by daybreak?”
