[Older woman-younger man romance + scheming couple + two-sided heroine + revenge and putting scumbags in their place + playing the fool to catch the tiger]
By day,
she is the cool and elegant goddess Lian Junran, gentle and well-educated.
By night,
she becomes the “scumbag cleaner” known in certain circles, hunting down predators who use love as an excuse to take what they want: those who drain their partners' self-respect, empty their wallets, and more...
She carefully weaves a web of affection, then delivers a fatal blow when they are at their most pleased with themselves, ruining their reputations and lives.
The shadow of her father's infidelity and domestic abuse, along with the pain of losing her mother young, made her shut her heart away completely.
The thrill of revenge is her only salvation, even if it earns her the reputation of a world-class heartbreaker.
That is, until Shu Yu, the bright-smiling “little brother,” barges into her bookstore.
She dismisses him as beneath her notice, writing him off as the least remarkable type of man. Little does she know that ever since she picked her first target, Shu Yu's gaze has followed her like a shadow.
He has not only witnessed her cold-blooded “executions” with his own eyes, but also seen her blood-soaked past.
He sees the broken soul beneath her elegant facade and aches for her as she destroys herself in her pursuit of revenge.
She thinks he is a lamb who wandered into her game, only to realize that she is the ultimate prey he has carefully laid plans to claim.
Will the blade of revenge ultimately bring destruction or release?
Is that gentle “Junran” a helping hand at the edge of the abyss, or another, deadlier web of love?
The world she carefully built begins to crumble in silence.
