Her fate was bitter from the beginning.
Xia Shasu has been unhappy since birth. She is the product of her mother's romantic relationship with a Hong Kong boss. When Xia Shasu was ten years old, she witnessed her mother being violently assaulted by her "father" and ran away from home in fear and helplessness. Hong Kong police academy student Fok Hoi-yin, who was traveling to the mainland, reached out to her for help. The mixed-race police academy student cast a glimmer of light into her gloomy childhood with her broken Mandarin and clumsy kindness.
The noose of fate suddenly tightened six years later. Her mother used a backless suspender skirt to bundle Xia Shasu as a gift to the wealthy businessman Chen Suiyang, and she moved to Hong Kong as her lover. Falling from a mistress village to a thousand-foot mansion in Central is like reaching the sky in one step. The expensive uniform of the aristocratic girls' school and the Patek Philippe watch given by her lover split her into two halves - during the day she was a popular top student in the school, and at night she was a lamb to be slaughtered in the bed.
The luxurious life in Hong Kong almost drowned Xia Shasu. Until one day in an English cram school, Huo Kaixian, who has become a policeman, broke into her life again. The smell of washing powder on the handkerchief overlaps with the musty smell of the childhood wardrobe. Memories flow back like a tide, and desires surge like ocean currents. Destiny is once again undercurrent.
In the humid air, a shadow as thick as asphalt always shrouded Xia Shasu's desire and trauma. She reached out to the distant sky, trying to catch a trace of starlight that had not been cut to pieces by neon lights.
