Bai Yueguang, whom financial tycoon Xie Canglan had been looking for for three years, suddenly appeared at a banquet hosted by his business rival, wearing a waiter's uniform.
He imprisoned her in the hotel corridor in public, his fingertips trembling: "In the past three years, would you rather be a waiter than come to me?"
Shi Ci looked up calmly, the silver epaulettes lining his suit flashing slightly under the light: "Mr. Xie, you are suspected of manipulating the securities market, cross-border money laundering and endangering financial security. You are now being summoned in accordance with the law."
Behind her, four plainclothes men flashed their IDs at the same time.
It wasn't until she sat in the interrogation room that Xie Canglan realized that the girl who said "We are not the same world" back then is now the youngest warden of Jinggang Women's Prison and the leader of the "Broken Mirror" operation of the Special Economic Investigation Team. During the three years since she disappeared, she passed top-secret selection and became the sharpest "legal scalpel" that pierced the dark side of capital.
In the prison visiting room, Shi Ci looked at his former lover wearing equipment through the bulletproof glass.
"Stop chasing, Xie Canglan." Her voice was as clear as reading an indictment, "From today on, I am your responsible police officer. I am responsible for your 'sentence' and 'future'."
What he didn't know was that the "Broken Mirror" operation that Shi Ci took over on his own initiative, in addition to the mission, hid a private application - to fight for a tomorrow where he could start over in a place where even sunlight needs approval.
