[COMPLETED] It's a race against time.

But the challenge gets even harder as there is a certain difficulty that they both have to overcome.

With Bai Li facing his own inner demons, will their quest for truth spiral out of control? Will he get his honour back?

Who is the enemy hiding in the shadows that Xin Lei and Bai Li would have to fight?

Along this journey to find their answers, will it also spark the flames of love between them?

***

Amidst the booming crack of ear-piercing gunshots, Xin Lei bumped into the ex-army officer, Major Bai Li, who recently got a dishonorable discharge. He was the only hope for her who could help her in digging the truth behind not only that syndicate chasing after her life but also to find about her father and brother who have mysteriously disappeared.

Together, they set out to search for the truth, but it shapes into something much darker and sinister as they learn about the case Xin Lei's father was working on - to prove a father innocent of his little daughter's disappearance, plunging them into one of the dangerous worlds, hidden from everybody.

--- Scene Excerpt ---

My foot was stuck in the pit and I pushed Bai Li away from me who was trying to get me out. There was no time. The sounds of sirens were growing closer and closer. How can I let the police catch him?

But my strength wasn't enough. I tugged his shirt. I begged him. 'Please go.'

Bai Li grabbed my arms. "Don't push me away, Xin Lei. Soldiers never leave anyone behind. It's either we are caught together or we escape together."

Before I knew it, his lips were on mine.

"Whatever it is, sticking together is the only option I give you."

Crimson Instinct

This was the third time after Yi Xing's harassment and the attack in Tianjin Port that she somehow landed in his arms. And today she was shaking and quivering in his embrace.

Ugghh...Damn, I felt so annoyed!

I understood that she might be attacked and was injured on top of that, but...but why only her! And why is Bai Li supposed to save her every time!

They might be my suspicions before, but now I was sure.

Zhang Ning liked Bai Li. It was so clear. Her gaze, when she looked at him as I just entered the room, said everything. It was filled with delight and admiration. Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and she seemed nervous - that kind of nervousness you see when a man or a woman is with his or her crush.

That made me feel so irritated. It seemed as if she was asking him about something, and I couldn't quite catch it, but she suddenly stopped when she saw me.

That increased my suspicions even more.
