Next Winter

Beautiful, unhinged male lead, coming-of-age heroine, reunited after a breakup, fated redemption, criminal investigation mystery

Shen Fang was born with a beautiful face that could belong to either a man or a woman,

but inside, he was a madman incapable of feeling emotions.

He clawed his way out of the mire, and the only tenderness he had in this life

was reserved for the poor student who once pulled him out of a bar.

At twenty, Lin Xingche waited tables, worked nightclubs, and went into the morgue.

She worked herself to the bone,

just hoping to snatch her father back from Death.

Meeting Shen Fang drew her into the darkness too.

Lin Xingche thought Shen Fang was the light in her life.

He lent her money and stayed by her as she said goodbye to her father,

but just when their feelings ran deepest, he cruelly pushed her away.

Lin Xingche once thought that her story with Shen Fang had ended ten years earlier, that winter.

Ten years later, she is a decisive businesswoman, President Lin, while he is the youngest captain in the criminal police division.

They reunite in the heavy snow and rescue a hostage with effortless teamwork,

then work side by side on cases, only to discover that it is all a trap laid by fate.

Lin Xingche is caught up in a cross-border money-laundering case and becomes the prime suspect.

Only Shen Fang believes her, quietly searching for evidence on her behalf.

Blazing flames tear through the darkness. Shen Fang risks his life to shield her in his arms,

then disappears into the depths of the fog amid a barrage of accusations.

Only then does Lin Xingche realize that during all those years they were apart,

he had spent ten years walking through hell alone.

Shen Fang entered the abyss alone long ago and battled the darkness for years.

Now it's her turn to lead him back into the light.
