Yue Wan, a modern office worker at a company, finds herself inside her beloved Republican-era mystery drama, Checkmate. She thought she'd be a classmate of Lu Yao's who had returned from studying abroad, or perhaps some young lady from a distinguished family. Who could have guessed she'd turn out to be a stunning beauty who became a board member of the Shanghai Municipal Council at a young age? Yue Wan can live with her curvy, alluring figure, but who knew the original owner was good friends with that devil Norman!
Thinking she wouldn't get to solve cases and have fun with the three famous detectives, Yue Wan was already miserable enough. But things got even worse: why was she treated as a suspect every time there was a case?! Yue Wan couldn't help sighing, "I guess Heaven thinks I'm too beautiful to suffer, so it's kindly severed my romantic prospects for me."
Whenever Yue Wan went out for a date and candlelit dinner with a handsome man, halfway through the meal, that dear Detective Qiao would take her away as a suspect. But later, even when there were no cases, why was she still being taken away as a suspect by Detective Qiao? Or was she being carried away?! At the station, Yue Wan protested. What had she done now? How had she gone from a suspect to a proven criminal? Detective Qiao's explanation was:
"You stole my heart."
Theme: After arriving in this world, Yue Wan becomes a rich woman and thinks, surely she can flirt with handsome men now? Detective Qiao grits his teeth and says that someone still has far too much energy.
