[Complete. Free to read in full.]

The company cuts back its business and lays off employee after employee. Meng Jiaqi is swamped, working overtime while sending out resumes and looking for another job.

At the meeting, the boss keeps making empty promises.

After several sleepless nights, she feels a dull ache in her heart.

Suddenly, everything goes black and she faints.

When she wakes up in the hospital, she receives two messages.

1. She's been granted a week of paid leave.

2. Someone has asked about the house she's had listed with an agent for a long time and wants to view it.

When she gets home, the couple upstairs, who are always arguing, are unusually quiet today. She takes a gift upstairs, hoping they'll keep the noise down when the buyer comes to see the house.

The door opens.

The woman looks utterly exhausted.

Meng Jiaqi's eyes widen.

She sees the usually fearsome man lying motionless on the floor.

Jiang Kaixin is summoned to the police station after her boss mysteriously falls into a lake.

The two had argued repeatedly before, and their resentment ran deep.

The officer asks, "Did you ever think about killing him?"

Jiang Kaixin denies it.

The officer opens her computer. Her browser is full of searches for "how to kill your boss without getting caught."

Jiang Kaixin: "..."

The officer asks, "You also bought an axe and a saw?"

Jiang Kaixin denies it again.

The officer brings up her purchase history.

She protests, "But I really didn't do it."

Jiang Kaixin discovers that her roommate, Ke Zhuo, has a set of surgical scalpels and a bottle of anesthetic hidden under his bed.

She reports him immediately.

Ke Zhuo juggles several jobs and is busy around the clock. He hates the boss just as much as she does.

The police review his dashcam footage and discover that he took the same route as the boss.

Ke Zhuo claims it was a "coincidence."

There's not enough evidence to hold them, so the two can go home, but they have to remain available for questioning.

They learn what it means to be unable to prove their innocence, and their resentment toward their boss turns into an inexhaustible supply of energy. They work by day and investigate by night, determined to find the culprit and clear their names.

From that day on, Jiang Kaixin keeps feeling like someone is watching her.

Ke Zhuo finds the boss's wallet by the lake.

Inside is a huge life insurance policy!
