"The Aristocrats" Episode Introduction: Full 60 Episodes Grand Finale Summary
In the early years of the Republic of China, Shanghai had already become the largest emerging city in the Far East. It was filled with carriages, travelers, finance, and commerce, where Western suits and leather shoes mingled with traditional long robes, and various dialects intertwined with European and American languages.
On a bright morning, the British luxury liner arrived carrying Wang Yuqiu, the daughter of Shanghai business tycoon Wang Zhengde, who had returned from studying abroad. Just as she disembarked, Wang Yuqiu was confronted by a petty thug attempting to steal from her. Coincidentally, Du Qingyuan, a carefree young man from the countryside who had just arrived in Shanghai, intervened without fully understanding the situation. Known for his adventurous and unrestrained nature, he mistakenly ended up being identified as an accomplice to the thug.
