Name: Breaking Through the Clouds
Author: Huai Shang

Synopsis

Dark clouds churn over the city.

Three years ago, during an anti-drug operation in Gongzhou, a chain of explosions occurred because Commander Jiang Ting made a mistake in his judgment. The anti-narcotics unit suffered heavy casualties. Three years later, Jiang Ting, who should have died in the line of duty and left no remains, miraculously awakens from a vegetative state.

His fallen comrades cannot rest in peace. He must return from hell and give everything he has to uncover the bloody, bizarre truth.

In this story, Yan Xie appears to be a cheeky, wisecracking rogue, but he’s sharp-eyed and deeply righteous. Jiang Ting is highly intelligent but physically frail. He speaks only after carefully weighing his words and is restrained and cautious in temperament. He seems gentle and refined, but there’s something wicked about the way he operates. Both protagonists are clearly and consistently characterized. Neither is based on a real person, and neither should be treated as a substitute for anyone.

Modern urban crime thriller. A handsome, charming, all-around capable gong who can snipe someone in the head from a hundred meters away and dismantle a bomb with his bare hands, and loves showing off whenever he gets the chance × a shou who stays calm no matter what happens because he’s always prepared for everything to fall apart anyway.

Normally updates six days a week, with one day off. Happy ending.

I'm open to all kinds, but I do have my limits. kk and cpj can both find things they dislike in this list. I'm too lazy to read the gossip and warnings. I've subscribed to everything, so cut me some slack.

Reading Notes

I read just about anything, except for weak gong, Japanese gong, mud gong, and specially catered-for insects. I really can't stand specially catered-for insects, and I'm always applying for insecticide.
