Under the Corridor: Time Is a Circle

This is a suspenseful love story about time loop and redemption. There is a "backlight corridor" on the 27th floor of Cheng's International Headquarters Building, with a line of Latin inscribed on the glass floor - Tempus est circulus (time is a circle). On that winter night with the heaviest snowfall in ten years, Ruan Zhiqi saw Cheng Yanzhi lying in a pool of blood at the end of the corridor for the third time. She desperately tried to change the ending, but was a step too late every time. It wasn't until Cheng Yanzhi said those words before her death: "In 2005, on the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, on that bridge, you gave me a bag of chestnuts." She realized that this time loop was much longer than she imagined. The overt and covert struggles of the chaebol family, the corruption conspiracy of the corporate empire, and the truth of the unresolved old cases... Ruan Zhiqi peeled off the cocoon time and time again, trying to find the murderer and save the young man who always said "I am dirty" but always protected her tenderly. However, when the truth gradually emerged, she discovered that some injuries were doomed long before time began to cycle, and some redemption did not mean changing the ending, but learning to reconcile with fate. The story finally stops in front of that corridor. Time is still going around in circles, but this time, they chose not to write the ending for the time being - because living itself is the best resistance to fate.
