The Dark Conspiracy in Jinling

In 1946, Nanjing’s underground intelligence network was wiped out. The ace agent Ye Wange, code-named “Nightingale,” was entrusted with a mission at a critical moment. Carrying the organization’s only ten flawless South African blood diamonds, she infiltrated the city of spies alone.

Before that, she had been a notorious cast-off wife from one of Shanghai’s wealthy families. Afterward, she became the most sought-after “Mrs. Bai” in Nanjing.

Faced with the inescapable nets laid by the Military Statistics Bureau, the Central Statistics Bureau, and the gendarmerie, Ye Wange neither carried out assassinations nor crawled through sewers. She put on the finest cheongsam and entered the most exclusive social circles, building an entirely new intelligence network amid the shuffle of chips at mahjong and poker tables.

“Mrs. Bai, you’ve won again.”

Ye Wange nudged the chips forward with her jade-like fingers and smiled with beguiling charm. “I’ll take the money. As for the city defense map Commander Zhang mentioned just now, I’ll pretend I didn’t hear it.”

When Zhou Yichen, the cold-blooded officer of the garrison headquarters, fixed his sights on her, he discovered that he had long since become a pawn at her card table. Through the long night, watch this queen of the card table plan her moves and win an entire city!
