When Lin Xiaoyu was ten, she huddled in a dark closet and watched helplessly as her father’s best friend, Zhao Dehai, brutally murdered her parents with a shovel. That rainy night, blood seeped into the floorboards with the rainwater, and Zhao Dehai’s icy voice still echoes in her ears: “Old Lin, don’t blame me. This gold mine could feed us for generations. You insisted on reporting it, so this was the only way.”
If a patrolling police officer hadn’t suddenly appeared, she too would have become a cold corpse.
Fifteen years later, Lin Xiaoyu has been completely transformed into a decisive public relations expert. She navigates the business world with ease, but has never forgotten her family’s murder. She carefully spins a web of revenge, waiting for the day she can face her enemy again.
At last, fate gives her a chance. A business deal takes her through the doors of Zhao Group. When the elevator opens and she meets Zhao Dehai’s eyes, her blood nearly freezes. The elegant business tycoon in his tailored suit is the very same butcher from that rainy night.
He no longer recognizes her, and she will not make the same mistake again.
Under the guise of a flawless PR professional, Lin Xiaoyu approaches Zhao Dehai, advancing step by step until she infiltrates his business empire. She intends to plant the seeds of destruction in his world and make him watch everything he owns collapse. But the deeper she gets, the more she realizes that the truth of that night is far darker than she imagined...
The flames of revenge have been lit, and the game between hunter and prey is only just beginning.
