Left with only her wits, modern knowledge, and all the dramas she’s ever watched, she must navigate this new world and become the smart and strong protagonist of her own story—without losing herself. As the worlds collide and fates intertwine, will Wang Jingyuan find her happily ever after, or will reality shatter every beautiful daydream? ----- Note: This is an ORIGINAL story, not a translation!

The heart of the Capital was very much alive with activity. Many shops and restaurants were still open and filled with patrons. Wang Jingyuan and Yan Qiufeng were greeted very enthusiastically by a waiter when they entered a bustling restaurant.
"Welcome, esteemed guests! What would you—oh my goodness, Little General Yan! What an honor!"
Yan Qiufeng nodded politely. "Are there any private rooms available?"
"Yes! Please follow me to the second floor." The waiter led them up a flight up stairs, away from the rowdy chatter and laughter of the guests in the open-seating first-floor area. He showed them to a room with a large, open window that provided a nice view of the street below.
"What would the general and miss like to have today?" asked the waiter.
Yan Qiufeng looked at Wang Jingyuan. "I am not a picky eater. Miss Wang, please order whatever you like to eat."
