At eleven one night, Su Mian received a phone call: her younger sister, Qiao Siqi, had fallen to her death from the second floor of the Song family villa.
The Song, Xu, and Lu families were intricately connected. They were the most powerful families in City A, with influence across politics, business, and medicine.
The police swiftly closed the case, ruling it an accidental fall.
But Su Mian didn't believe them. She was only a junior reporter at a TV station, but for her sister's sake, she chose to face the danger head-on, and found herself forced to navigate between several men.
One was the sole heir to the Song family, violent and ruthless, determined to possess her;
One was the youngest neurologist at Century Hospital. He was always at her side, offering gentle support without asking for anything in return;
And one was the Lu family's second son, the general manager of Zhongkong Group, cold and aloof. Su Mian couldn't tell whether he was friend or foe.
Su Mian gradually discovered that her sister's death was only the tip of the iceberg. Her stepfather's "car accident" six months earlier, under-the-table dealings surrounding a ten-billion-yuan city government project, and the "eldest Song son," who had never appeared in public: the more clues she found, the deeper the mystery became.
