If your destiny is to be someone else’s copy, do you have the right to love?
In 2045, a cyberpunk metropolis is awash in gene-editing technology. Lin Xi, an intern reporter investigating a bizarre collapse in the slums, accidentally trespasses into a restricted zone belonging to the powerful Gu Group, only to discover that her life is a carefully designed experiment:
- The crescent-shaped birthmark on her collarbone and the burn scar on Gu Chengze, heir to the Gu family, are identification marks from the same cloning experiment.
- The boy who saved her life during an orphanage fire twenty years ago is now a cold-blooded tycoon’s killing tool.
- The truth about her mother’s death in childbirth is hidden in a bluish viral reagent inside a freezer. Its label bears her genetic code: X-1998-3.7
