Synopsis:

A skilled assassin from the 21st century finds herself unexpectedly reborn as the seemingly inept Fourth Miss of the Su Manor in a world steeped in imperial politics. This delicate situation is complicated by the presence of Jin Empire's aloof and formidable Emperor, a ruler known for both his exceptional abilities and emotionally detached demeanor. Initially dismissed as useless and often ridiculed, the Fourth Miss becomes an object of unusual attention from the Emperor.

The narrative explores the dynamic between these two contrasting personalities – her stubborn resilience against his unwavering focus. The story unfolds as a quiet examination of power imbalances and unexpected connections, focusing on the subtle interplay of affection and obligation amidst a backdrop of courtly intrigue and personal growth. It presents a character-driven experience centered around their evolving relationship and the unconventional bonds that form between them.
