From Workplace Castoff to Capital Hunter: A Lethal Comeback

Ding Xi has spent eight years struggling under the stigma of being a “corporate spy” and a place on the industry's blacklist. At last, she gets a chance to clear her name. Posing as an ordinary project manager, she infiltrates Longteng Industries, one of China's leading real estate groups and the culprit that ruined her reputation. Her goal is not only to prove her innocence, but to personally destroy the corrupt empire controlled by Lu Chengze, her former lover and now the group's vice president. But she must contend with more than a heavily monitored workplace and a boss and colleagues who make things difficult at every turn. There is also one deadly secret: if the evidence in her hands, enough to bring down the entire group, is exposed, it will put her long-lost daughter in danger. Her daughter has resurfaced, only to become a hostage in the hands of her enemy. This is a revenge plot played out on a knife's edge. Within three months, Ding Xi must complete the redevelopment project for the group's central business district, maneuver among three scheming antagonists, and win the trust and support of a mysterious investor known as “Black Dragon.” Every shrewd business decision is a fierce counterblow against the oppression she suffered in the past; every emotion she keeps in check is a deadly defense of her vulnerability. When the truth finally comes to light, Black Dragon's true identity intertwines with her buried past. Ding Xi will discover that true redemption is not becoming one of them, but redefining the rules.
