Cheng Qiqi has spent her life suppressing herself, even though deep down she is rebellious to the core. Then one day, she finally turns the tables and sings her own tune: after giving her awful boss a piece of her mind, she quits.
The Heavenly Dao System comes knocking soon after. Is it because she is so good at getting under people's skin?
From then on...
One task after another comes her way, involving all sorts of wealthy-family melodrama, rare and wondrous beasts, vengeful ghosts, and evil spirits.
Cheng Qiqi's "wild, unhinged, and ruthless" style quickly makes her an internet sensation. Through a twist of fate, she also forms an unbreakable bond with Chu Xun, the capital's most notorious playboy, who seems like a complete airhead.
Each with their own secrets, the two are drawn together by a series of misunderstandings and join forces to solve mysterious cases.
As they do, Chu Xun's true nature gradually comes to light, repeatedly turning Cheng Qiqi's assumptions upside down.
A walking source of merit? A God of Wealth? A genius? A great sage?
And at some point, he starts answering every question she asks...
Why does Chu Xun pretend to be a playboy?
Are the System's endless tasks really about balancing good and evil?
Why did the System choose Cheng Qiqi in particular?
In this world of rampant materialism, a rich man's romantic scandal can dominate the headlines, while no one cares that a young woman died unjustly.
Yet in this same world, some people have seen the world's coldness and still hold fast to a warm, innocent heart. Others burn themselves up for love and would face death again and again without regret.
Foolish!
But fools have no regrets.
Both leads are devoted only to each other, one-on-one romance.
The heroine is a brilliant oddball who can be timid one moment and unhinged the next, and who loves getting under people's skin. The hero is a fake playboy and a true saint.
