You Were Sent to Go Undercover, So How Did You Get the Intelligence Chief Wrapped Around Your Finger?

Waking from a night of heavy drinking, Lu Yunzheng is horrified to discover that the woman lying in his arms is none other than Ye Qingxuan, the bloodthirsty director of Special Agent Headquarters No. 71, a woman whose name strikes fear into everyone who hears it!

The moment she wakes up, she’ll tear him limb from limb!

After a panicked escape, Lu Yunzheng realizes that this romantic trap, which nearly cost him his life, was a deadly scheme laid by his mentor, the legendary Judge of the military intelligence service!

“Putting the two of you together was the only way to drive you, a doomed chess piece, deep into the enemy’s heart!”

In the turbulent Shanghai of 1940, Lu Yunzheng has no System to support him and no cheats to fall back on.

From a disposable pawn to a two-faced kingpin who can turn the tide with a wave of his hand.

Years later, as the dawn of victory breaks, the various factions are stunned to discover that the “nighttime chessmaster” who had stirred up Shanghai was right there among them all along...
