On the eve of their wedding, his fiancée, Su Wan, vanishes into thin air from a hotel room like a sealed chamber, leaving behind only a text message: “Don't look for me. I never existed.”
Criminal defense lawyer Shen Yichen is forced to call off the wedding, only to discover that everything about his fiancée was fabricated: her education, her job, her identity. The only lead points to the powerful Gu Group and the unsolved case of its eldest son, Gu Mingxuan, who mysteriously fell into the sea three years ago.
As Shen Yichen unearths the secrets of the wealthy family, an even more terrifying truth comes to light: Gu Mingxuan's death was no accident, and there was DNA from a second person aboard the yacht. Su Wan's true identity is that of a private investigator who has been undercover for three years, holding evidence capable of bringing down the entire family.
Now the kidnappers have sent their final ultimatum: “Tomorrow night at ten, Warehouse No. 3 at the Binhai Wharf. Come alone. If you call the police, she dies.”
Shen Yichen grips the decrypted USB drive and heads for the abandoned steel cage. This is both a rescue mission and a trap. But he has to go, because the woman who vanished is the only person he knows for certain he loves.
On the eve of their wedding, she never existed.
But this manhunt in the name of love has only just begun...
