Yan Xiaoxi is determined to become a police officer, uncover the truth about her parents' deaths, and get revenge. But as she investigates one case after another, she falls in love with Shan Qingjian, repeatedly lowering her own standards for her. Loving her so much that dying for her feels like a decision that requires no thought.
Yan Xiaoxi: "Qingjian, don't be afraid. I'm not here to hurt you. I'm here today to repay the two lives I owe you."
Shan Qingjian believes there could never be another woman in the world like Yan Xiaoxi: warm-hearted, blushing in silence, arrogantly brave and fearless. But why is Yan Xiaoxi so closely connected to her mother's death? And why won't Yan Xiaoxi offer a single explanation?
Shan Qingjian: "Yan Xiaoxi, what good are your words now? What does it matter if you give your life? Can that make the dead forgive you? You had so many chances, so why didn't you say a word? Were you just trying to figure out how to patch up your lies again? Please, just let me go."
Love is a single word, half a lifetime of earthly warmth and half a lifetime of quiet joy. It breaks down the walls of status between people, yet still cannot stop love from turning them into prisoners.
