Love Across Borders | Dominant Male Lead and Submissive Female Lead | A Push and Pull of Love and Hate | A Bad Seed | 1v1
A bomb shatters Yin Zhiyu's peaceful life of twenty years.
Caught in a quagmire, she falls to the ground in a miserable heap and clings desperately to a passerby's leg. “Please, save me.”
The man looks down at her from on high, his gaze languid. “Well, look who it is. Come on, crawl over here.”
To survive, she casts aside her dignity and learns to tread carefully, as insignificant as dust.
He protects her, and he confines her.
“You may think for yourself, but you may not refuse or question me.”
She accepts. She obeys. But she never forgets that she's only a visitor who wandered into this gray land by mistake. Her homeland is peaceful and safe, and sooner or later she'll go back.

Song Lie is a businessman, a man in human skin who operates beyond the bounds of order and makes his living in a game of life and death.
Then one day, he reveals his true nature.
His towering figure looms over her. His burning breath brushes Yin Zhiyu's ear. “Just thinking that you once lived with another man for 7,305 days makes me unbearably jealous.”
Thunder rumbles outside the window. She trembles all over. “Please... be normal!”
The vessel that bears the weight of his descent must also accept his filthy soul.

Six years later, Yin Zhiyu lies in a grand bed in a private villa on Palm Jumeirah. In the distance, the tip of the Burj Khalifa gazes silently down over the City of Gold.
And he is right beside her. The past is like a mirage in the desert. What's true, what's false, who's right, who's wrong: she no longer has the strength to tell.
