[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

At the secret base where Chu Jie, Ying Yue, Cocoa, and Long Hu were kept, another loud shrill echoed throughout the place.

Xue Jingjing was thrown on the ground. She hit her elbows and knees as she collided on the ground that felt as if her bones almost broke.

The men around her were dumbfounded. The guards who kidnapped Ying Yue exclaimed. "Hey, she is the same woman who escaped!"

"Wohoo! So we got a double treat after all!"

Everybody looked at Rodey in appreciation. "Thanks a bunch, Rodey. We didn't know you went to pick her up."

"You made things more interesting now."

Xue Jingjing slowly turned around and jolted to see so many people laughing at her. Then her glance shifted at Rodey, and she burst into tears.

"Y-you! What is this place? Why did you bring me here? Let me go!"
