Fifteen years ago, Lin Shuang was timid and meek, unable to get out a single complete sentence.
Fifteen years later, she returned under the name Xia Muyang.
She was the heiress of Yunan Group, an award-winning journalist, and a new arrival at Anning City Television.
She created a program called 47 Minutes.
Pingchuan Pharmaceuticals, Anning City's largest drug company, was deeply trusted by patients.
The first thing she did was invite Pingchuan Pharmaceuticals onto her show.
In front of the cameras, she smiled with practiced composure.
Behind them, she had laid her trap.
A contaminated-water scandal, substandard medicinal ingredients, the smell of sulfur, voices forcibly silenced.
She wasn't just reporting on Pingchuan Pharmaceuticals' crimes.
She was exposing a cold case buried for fifteen years.
Only she knew that 47 Minutes was never a stage. It was an execution ground.
Starting with Pingchuan Pharmaceuticals, the net slowly tightened.
A chain of profiteering broke apart, partners turned on one another, and a corpse sank to the bottom of a fish tank.
Desire, greed, fear, and karma all surfaced, one by one.
Everyone thought they were the winner.
Until they realized that every “victory” they'd ever claimed came with a price already marked out.
To bring them down, she wagered everything she had.
She brought the past she'd once been most afraid to face right before the cameras with her own hands.
At the forty-seventh minute, the truth was laid bare.
She looked at that face, the person she could never forget from her dreams, finally pinned down before everyone.
She smiled. She had waited fifteen years for that smile.
“I've never won, and I've never dared to hope I would. But this time, I will win.”
