Gentle Light Against the Grain

[Beautiful Designer x Undercover Narcotics Officer] Wen Wu was as her name suggested: radiant and alluring, but with a somewhat odd personality. A young woman fresh out of college ought to be full of youthful energy, but she made a living sewing qipaos in her grandmother's tailor shop. She wore them herself, her figure swaying gracefully, beautiful as a fashion illustration from the Republican era. Only her personality didn't quite match the gentleness of her clothes. A new male tenant moved in across the way. Broad-shouldered, long-legged, and devastatingly handsome, he was an unemployed loafer with a rogueish air. He often leaned against the entrance to the old alley with a cigarette between his fingers, and every time she passed, he'd raise his eyes with a grin and whistle at her without a care. Wen Wu couldn't stand it, so she piled all the cigarette butts from the stairwell outside his door. Duan Chi opened the door and saw the scene. After a brief pause, he raised his eyes with a grin. "Were you waiting for me, miss?" Wen Wu: "I'm waiting for your dad. What the hell are you?" - Duan Chi had nothing to do in the alley, so he earned a living repairing household appliances. His sweet talk and handsome face won him countless matchmaking offers from mothers eager to find him a girl. He had no interest in romance, but he did find Wen Wu, who wore qipaos and talked tough, rather interesting. That day, he saw a group of young men following Wen Wu. He tossed aside his cigarette and put an arm around her slender waist. "Hey, miss, want to go on a date? Your big brother will walk you home." "Go date your dad. Get your hand off me." Only after the group left did he let go. An order came through his earpiece: "Attention, the drug traffickers have picked a new location." That night, Wen Wu was delivering a qipao to a customer when she was unexpectedly taken hostage by drug traffickers. A gunshot rang out, and the bad guy fell. Duan Chi lowered his gun beneath the neon lights and gave her a helpless, reassuring smile. He walked toward her against the light. "Get up. I'll take you home."

He's as cold and abstinent as ever. His long fingers tend to her wound. She still can't help falling for him, and her eyes turn red, but she pretends not to know him. When she tries to leave, those elegant, sharply jointed fingers catch her by the wrist. 2. The City No. 1 Hospital has two things at the top: its medical expertise, and Ji Xingzhou. His scalpel saves lives, and his face is handsome and aloof. He has politely but coolly turned down countless confessions from nurses and patients. One day, a fair-skinned, beautiful patient arrives. She can't feel a thing during her local-anesthetic surgery, yet cries until her eyes are red the entire time. She's bad-tempered, too, snapping at him, "Can you even do this? If not, get someone else." Nurse: He's the best doctor in our hospital! After the surgery, she doesn't thank him once. She looks weak and unsteady, so Ji Xingzhou carries her away in his arms. Nurse: ?? 3. Xia Tian brightened Ji Xingzhou's entire high school life. This problem girl was always following him around, wearing her feelings openly, yet still pure and radiant. "Hey, Ji. Be my boyfriend." While he was weighing his studies against romance, Xia Tian died unexpectedly. He never saw that open, innocent smile again, not until today. He changes everything about himself for her and becomes the one to pursue her. He replaces her cold, gloomy basement with a bright, sunny home, and arranges a job for her at his mother's company. When her red lips press against his, he pulls her into his arms, his voice hoarse and frenzied. "Xia Tian, I missed you after all." Xia Tian is beautiful, passionate, and poor. Before long, she gets together with a shareholder in Ji Xingzhou's mother's company and dumps him. That day, Ji Xingzhou watched her get into a Rolls-Royce, his eyes reddening. "Why?" Xia Tian didn't answer. She walked away with a brilliant smile. A month later, he saw Xia Tian lying in a pool of blood. She tried to smile at him. "Ji Xingzhou, because I'm a narcotics police officer." [Ji Xingzhou, I love my country, and I love you too] Theme: A tribute to love and justice
