Attack: Shen Shiyan | 30 years old | Financial upstart/investment bank partner | Seemingly gentle but actually paranoid and deep
Subject: Jiang Lin | 28 years old | Art restorer/former financial genius | Alien and indifferent on the surface, but sensitive and tough in reality
Seven years ago, Jiang Lin from the Department of Finance at the University of Hong Kong was a genius that everyone looked up to, and Shen Shiyan was the silent shadow behind him. A well-designed financial trap caused Jiang Lin to fall from the clouds with huge debts and stigma. But Shen Shiyan chose to protect himself and watched him disappear into the sea of people.
Seven years later, Shen Shiyan was already a hot upstart in the financial world. At an auction, he met Jiang Lin again, who was restoring ancient paintings. The eyes that once shone with golden light were now only wary gray.
"Jiang Lin, let's talk."
"Mr. Shen, you have recognized the wrong person."
A financial merger involving tens of billions of dollars tied the two people together again. Shen Shiyan discovered that Jiang Lin had enough evidence to overturn the entire situation; and Jiang Lin realized that the trap back then was far deeper than imagined, and even Shen Shiyan was just one of the pawns.
In the vain and impetuous "Fake Gold Era", what is difficult to distinguish between true and false is not only the number game in the financial market, but also the unquenched embers between two broken souls. As old scars are uncovered layer by layer, they must find a way to the truth between revenge and redemption, truth and lies, destruction and reconstruction.
