She is later transferred to the city's criminal investigation division. During this time, she follows the veteran officers at the station and experiences the busy, mundane work of a beat cop. After moving to criminal investigations, she joins her colleagues in facing the hardships and dangers of solving cases.
Xie Bei, an art teacher, has been unable to emerge from the grief of losing his former girlfriend in an unfortunate accident. Policewoman Su Xuefei, meanwhile, was hurt deeply by a relationship in college and no longer believes in love. By chance, Xie Bei and Su Xuefei meet, and after several years of spending time together, they gradually grow close.
As she spends more time with Xie Bei, Su Xuefei gradually lets go of her fixation and develops feelings for him. She also discovers that Xie Bei has been looking after his late girlfriend's parents all along. Touched by this, she gives even more of her heart to him.
Later, while working on a case, Xie Bei, who is skilled at sketching faces, uses his pencil to point Su Xuefei toward an unexpected breakthrough, allowing them to solve the case successfully and further strengthening their relationship.
After Su Xuefei boldly confesses her love, Xie Bei, who had been somewhat resistant, finally embraces the love that came late. Through his actions, he tells her: If you are destined to face the darkness, I will always stand by your side with the light!
