On the night when Shanghai fell, she was told that Qiu had protected her with her life, escaped alone, faked her death, and fled to Hong Kong. Since then, "Chu Shaohua" has died, and she, under the pseudonym "Shen Zhao", has quietly risen in the undercurrent of Hong Kong.
Using business as a blade and wisdom as a shield, she worked her way through the cracks of the Japanese puppets, the military, and the comprador forces, rebuilding the intelligence network and delivering anti-war supplies. Mother and daughter recognize each other, master and apprentice meet again, lover still alive...
Multiple layers of identity mysteries are revealed one after another; the puzzle between father and daughter, the showdown of beliefs, the choice of family and country, and the tests of life and death temper one's edge. This is not only a woman's journey of revenge, but also a magnificent picture of a generation of women saving the country with industry and establishing their lives with faith in troubled times.
Each chapter is full of suspense, with major twists and turns in several chapters. The plot is compact and the climax comes one after another, taking you into a more thrilling legend of the women of the Republic of China than the TV series.
