A headstrong, unruly young detective × a beauty in a qipao
In Shen Yan’s eyes, Bai Qianhe seemed quiet on the surface, but deep down she was a flirt, a schemer, and a fake innocent. She was absolutely the kind who could row a boat without oars, relying entirely on her waves! After graduating high school, he swore he would never see her again for the rest of his life.
In Bai Qianhe’s eyes, there was no one in the world colder, prouder, and harder to get along with than Shen Yan. That guy could put on an act like nobody else.
After the college entrance exams, top student Shen Yan went north for university, while underachiever Bai Qianhe stayed in the south to attend a vocational school.
Ten years later, Shen Yan had become a police officer. A murder case brought him face-to-face with Bai Qianhe again. On a day that was hardly warm, she was squeezed among the crowd of onlookers in an ivory qipao, her slender waist bent into an S as she did her best to flaunt her charms. Shen Yan coughed twice. Bai Qianhe glanced back, and in an instant, their eyes met with a click, like two locks at opposite ends of time.
Shen Yan asked frostily, “What are you doing here?”
Bai Qianhe smiled seductively, so seductively that Shen Yan was inexplicably annoyed. Ten years had passed, and she hadn’t changed one bit. Bai Qianhe pointed to the qipao shop beside her and said, “I own it.”
Shen Yan gave a snort. “The Old Times Qipao Shop?”
“That’s right. Old times.”
Ten years had passed. All the secrets buried deep in the past were hidden among those old times. They would have to be peeled back layer by layer before the truth could be seen.
