Jiang Lingxue rescues Lu Chenzhou, who seems down on his luck, at a bar. It’s just a kind gesture, a casual flirtation, but she has no idea she’s awakened a “caged beast” lurking in the shadows.
From then on, Qi Jinhan uses tenderness as bait, weaving a net of love around her one step at a time. “Sis, you’re my light.”

An encounter that began with pity ultimately becomes a maddening cage she can never escape…
