On the very first day Fu Shu entered the palace, Emperor Wen, Yuan You, took a fancy to her. She enjoyed four years of unbroken favor. Tragically, Yuan You was a foolish ruler who neglected state affairs and cared only for drink and pleasure.
Everyone said the Fu family harbored treasonous ambitions, using a seductive consort to manipulate the emperor and seize the throne. But Fu Shu knew the truth: her family had served loyally for generations, and by working with her from within, they had protected the crumbling Kingdom of Wei year after year. It was just that the emperor was beyond saving.
Then one night, the drunken emperor climbed the palace tower alone and stumbled down its steep steps. Fu Shu happened to pass by and reached out to save him, but he dragged her down with him. She died at the foot of the stone stairs.
When she awoke, Fu Shu had become an agent mocked by everyone in the entertainment industry, all because her client had more haters than fans.
Wait a minute! Why did this artist look exactly like that foolish emperor of hers?
No acting skills, double-booking shoots, making terrible movies, throwing his weight around on set, mistreating the staff...
Fu Shu nearly spat blood. What kind of sins had she committed in her past eight lifetimes to get saddled with this good-for-nothing twice?
This time, Fu Shu threw in the towel. She grabbed her luggage and headed for the door, but before she could step outside, she ran into the man standing there. His eyes were red. "A Shu, where are you going? I'm all alone here. Please don't go, all right?"
Huh? The foolish emperor hadn't died either?
Fu Shu's heart softened. She couldn't forget her father's teachings. Fine, she'd stay until she got this hopeless case back on his feet. And if she did leave, she'd make sure to earn enough money first.
The more she wanted to leave, the harder she worked.
Those four years in the palace hadn't been for nothing. No matter what industry she was in, wouldn't she be able to handle it with ease? She dragged the "disgraced" artist with the surname Yuan onto variety shows and into film crews, keeping him busy every moment. Just as things were finally getting on track, though, the whole situation gradually veered off course.
Yuan You attended Fashion Week.
Fans: Agent sis, you should walk the runway too! It'd be such a waste to keep that gorgeous presence sitting down.
Photos and videos of Yuan You on set went viral online.
Fans: Agent sis's gaze is so fierce, I'm in love. Have you considered acting?
Yuan You won Best Actor.
Fans: When are you going to become Fu Shu's agent?
Yuan You: ???
During an interview one day:
Actor Yu: My ideal partner? Probably someone like Miss Fu.
The person who had been silent all this time: Get lost!
(You're trying to steal my woman right under my nose?)
