Ten years ago, a heart-stopping rescue quietly bound two boys together, only for fate to pull them apart and send them to opposite ends of the world.
Ten years later, one is a stern and formidable chief of the criminal investigation brigade, a decorated officer burdened by his family's expectations and the shadows of his past.
The other is a seemingly aloof and distinguished CEO who has recently returned from abroad, carrying childhood trauma and an obsession buried deep in his heart.
A sudden case brings their parallel lives together once more.
One pursues, the other evades. One tests the waters, the other retreats.
“Captain Gu, care to join me for dinner?”
“Mr. Ling, I'm busy.”
As the sealed memories of the past are slowly laid bare, that fleeting glimpse and the feelings long hidden in their hearts surge back to the surface.
This time, can he overcome his inner demons and hold on tight to the light that once shone through his darkness?
And can the other let go of his misgivings and accept this passionate pursuit?
A clash of equals, tensions simmering beneath the surface, a case solved together, and the truth revealed through the haze.
