[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

Ying Yue was watching them with an impassive glance, but her heart was racing like crazy. She didn't know what was going on and why these men suddenly appeared, saying that it was a trap.

She slightly trembled and clenched her dress in her fist.

Was this interview fake? A scam? But why? Why do they want us? I don't even know them.

Xue Jingjing, on the other side, was already starting to lose it.

First, that thief who stole all the money at gunpoint and now these two men…

She shuddered, seeing their guns pointed at her. A fight or flight response was already making her body shiver in fear.

"T-this…" she jerked her head towards Ying Yue and gritted her teeth. "Yue, what the hell is this! Who are these people?"

The second man laughed. "Everybody would be so happy. There was supposed to be only this bitch here…" he pointed his finger at Ying Yue, "but now we have got two!" He looked at Xue Jingjing.
