I’m Tao, the most unnoticeable maid in the palace. After knocking over enchanted water from the imperial kitchen, I gain the ability to read minds—even the thoughts of Xiao Jingheng, the revered 'cold and wise' emperor. Planning to just enjoy the gossip, I discover his hidden side: he secretly eats osmanthus cakes in the study, fears the dark (needing a plush doll to sleep), and spent half a year knitting a scarf for the Empress Dowager but hasn’t dared to give it. Just as I’m hooked on his 'contrast cuteness,' Xiao Jingheng grabs my wrist: 'You can read minds, can’t you?' He’s known my secret all along and wants to use me against the villains plotting to usurp his throne. As I try to keep 'watching the show,' I’m pulled into his world—his loneliness, his softness, and the genuine heart behind his imperial facade. Little do we know, the villains are closing in, and our 'gossip game' might turn into a bond of survival… and maybe, love.
