After unexpectedly transmigrating, Cong Ning has no choice but to rely on her strongest skill to survive: opening a tutoring academy. In this world, where everyone must think alike, education is shackled, and free speech is forbidden, she has to tread carefully...
As her tutoring business flourishes, Cong Ning discovers that the rigid, orthodox, imperial-loyal Director of the Imperial College, who has always opposed her, not only sabotages her business but also hunts her down at night...
Worst of all, after failing to kill her, the Director feels guilty and insists on making amends by working with her to build the business... (Good heavens, does this lord have a split personality or something!!)
Mini-scenes:
"My lord, a hobby class has opened in the capital, with all sorts of riffraff attending. It's hardly proper." "Shut it down!"
"My lord, there's a new adult literacy school in the capital, and men and women study together. It's scandalous." "Shut it down!"
"My lord, there's a new intensive course in the capital, called 'Special Tricks for Winning Over the Director of the Imperial College.' Should we shut it down?" "Hold on!"
Cong Ning retreats step by step: "My lord, please behave yourself. I only want to run a tutoring business, not get involved with a man."
The Director presses closer, step by step: "Behave myself? And you do?"
