About This Novel
The first time Lu Yanhan met Ruan Xingwan was during a gunfight in the rainforest of northern Myanmar. She huddled in the ruins holding the stray dog. The burn scar on the inside of her wrist matched the shape of the old wound on his heart. "Come with me, I'll protect you." He blocked the bullet for her, but she put a dagger to her throat. Ten years later, she married him as the useless daughter of the Ruan family. When she was hiding a tracker in his suit pocket, she touched a warm silver bullet - engraved with her English initials. "Do you like it?" He bit her earlobe, "Every time I miss you, I will carve it." He made her fingerprints into an arsenal key, and she programmed his birthday into a virus program, until during a certain mission, he blocked a sniper rifle for her, and the blood soaked through his shirt to reveal the tattoo on his heart: When the nightingale flaps its wings, the owl's nest is due to return.
