share time: 2026-02-26 00:38:56

Modern office worker Su Wan stayed up late binging a historical romance, only to wake up as a down-and-out concubine daughter in ancient times—bound to a "Mountain and River Protection System." She must help the God of War, Gu Tingzhi, survive three fatal disasters to return to her world. But Gu is the feared "Living Yama"; their first meeting has him tossing her into the training ground as a spy. Desperate, Su blurts: "General, you’ll be shot by a hidden arrow today!" Gu sneers, but when the arrow flies, he pulls her into his arms without thinking. As they navigate dangers, Su discovers Gu’s "coldness" is a shield for his country, and Gu finds himself drawn to this quirky girl who always says "I want to go home." But when enemies besiege the city and Gu tries to take her to safety, Su hesitates: the modern world she’s dying to return to, or the man who’d die with her—which is her true home?
