Introduction:
Gu Yanheng, the president of Hengyuan Group, stands at the top of the business empire, calm, dignified and in control of everything. An employee file that was too "clean" brought a man named Lin Yu'an to him - the group's newly hired crisis response expert with a simple background but bottomless eyes.
Lin Yu'an, burdened with the mystery of his brother's disappearance, transformed into an elite and sneaked into Hengyuan. He has only one purpose: to find out the truth, even if his opponent is an unfathomable man like Gu Yanheng. He thought this was a well-planned secret battle.
However, in their first confrontation, Gu Yanheng revealed his hidden identity and offered a bait he couldn't refuse: "Do you want to know the truth about your brother's disappearance?"
A seemingly ordinary disappearance case actually involved the "Styx", a top-secret project within the group that was kept secret. In the darkness, countless hands tried to cover up the truth, pushing the two people into the center of the whirlpool.
Gu Yanheng and Lin Yuan went from rivals testing each other to allies forced to join forces. In this chess game full of lies, betrayal and fatal temptation, they are each other's only variable.
When the secrets are peeled back layer by layer, when trust is tested on the edge of life and death, they discover that what is deeper than the conspiracy is the intertwined fate. Two lone stars, in the endless undercurrent, are the only light before falling into each other.
