Back then, Xiao Xiao quietly settled into my heart. I wanted nothing more than a simple wish for her safety and happiness. No matter how fierce the storm, I would stand guard over my Xiao Xiao.
In the modern world, Xiao Xiao boards Malaysia Airlines flight HM730 to Malaysia for a vacation, hoping to get away from her overbearing older brother's love. But the plane crashes, and she transmigrates to an unknown world in an alternate timeline. Here, the great clans are prosperous and evenly matched, all eyeing the tottering former dynasty with hungry ambition. The Xiao, Chai, Hu, and Zheng clans, along with the former dynasty's Helian clan, are locked in open and covert struggles. Within these families, men and women alike either become pawns in political marriages or hone their skills in schemes and stratagems amid perilous struggles, carefully plotting against those close to them and those who are not.
Clever and patient, she must once again confront an illicit love within her heart, all while navigating this complicated world. What fate awaits the court amid the clans' rivalry? What sparks will fly as she and her brother face off? Now that she has set the past aside, can she accept this unusual love? And what schemes will her tender, inscrutable brother devise to win the beauty's heart?
At that time, it was small and settled in my heart. I just want to be safe, let it be precarious, and I will keep my own little self.
