What is it like to wake up as a sheltered young lady who never steps beyond her household, when you used to be a renowned venture capitalist?
Qiao Xin says she can't give up her venture capital career.
It was the time of year when candidates traveled to the capital to sit for the imperial exams. Qiao Xin sent her maid away and set her sights on the Gaosheng Inn, a place every traveler to the capital had to pass.
Whenever she met a scholar who didn't seem foolish, she struck up a relationship with him and gave him a lock of her hair as a token of their love.
Then came the day the exam results were posted. A suona procession arrived at her door, with the top-ranking scholar carrying an imperial marriage decree, followed by an eight-person sedan chair.
Of course, investments are risky. How could she possibly put all her money on one horse?
So there were actually several more suona processions, all on their way.
Qiao Xin: "Who is he?"
What do you do when you have face blindness and can't remember what anyone is called?
And what do you do when your project's returns exceed expectations?
Notes:
1. The heroine is a total heartbreaker, the kind who steals a man's heart and takes no responsibility.
2. The heroine has face blindness. See the conversation below:
Qiao Xin: "I have face blindness. I didn't get together with him because he was handsome, because I have no idea whether he is handsome or not. What I value is talent."
3. The hero's looks are out of this world.
4. The hero and heroine are each other's only partners.
