Zhou Zhou, a former member of an elite gang of thieves, decides to go straight. First step: turn herself in.
But her first attempt goes badly. Police officer Ming Tian mistakes her for a robber and arrests her.
Well, she might as well go along with it and find herself a “safe house” to stay in.
Ming Tian is an elite officer, calm and composed. Then he receives a bizarre prophecy: protect a girl named Zhou Zhou, and love her well.
When a highly skilled thief collides with a meticulous, stone-faced police officer,
a tacit game of living together begins in secret.
She tests his limits, deliberately disrupting his orderly world just to see him lose control.
He probes her secrets, calmly observing the traces of her past that slip out in unguarded moments, hoping to pull her out of the darkness.
She thinks she is the one moving the pieces, unaware that she has long been on his “protection list.”
He thinks he is simply following orders, but gradually can no longer tell which crossed the line first: surveillance or the stirrings of his heart.
When trouble from her past comes knocking, and the truth behind the prophecy is revealed,
they discover that this encounter, which began with handcuffs and a prophecy, is both salvation and the only light they have for each other.
