When someone falls into the mire, some fight desperately to escape, while others give up struggling. When a ray of light shines into the mire they’re trapped in, will those who have given up fighting be willing to escape?

This is a story about loving and being loved, about pain and still loving despite it.

Four years later, Chu Sizhe returns to the Security Bureau, and memories of his past love with Gu Jinxiao resurface. Bianhai, one of the country’s most developed cities, has changed dramatically. Will Gu Jinxiao, who lives there, have changed as well?

Several strange cases arrive with him. Who would dare provoke the authorities by murdering someone, dismembering the body, and dumping it at the entrance of the Security Bureau?

Why has a man who disappeared for days suddenly shown up on the highway, disfigured beyond recognition?

Who planned it all, and who is pulling the strings behind the scenes? Does good really always triumph over evil? Can the bad truly be brought to justice?

He should have understood long ago: if you get close to a rose growing in the mire, no matter how beautiful it is, you’ll have to step into the mire and brave the thorns.

Embrace him, protect him, and accept the thorns he uses to protect himself. He thought he’d pulled them out long ago, but in truth, he’d simply grown used to having them tear his flesh apart.

You are my chess piece, and more than that, you are my lover.
