the crowded nightclub

When I was seventeen, I left my village and went to Dongguan, chasing the kind of hope only a desperate kid believes in. The city didn’t welcome me. I was cheated, bullied, overworked, and nearly robbed— until she appeared. Li Yan. Twenty-three. Beautiful. Mysterious. Untouchable. Everyone in the factory knew her name, but no one dared to talk about her past. Our first meeting? She saved my luggage, shut up the supervisor who tried to bully me, and handed me a warm meal I hadn’t eaten in days. “Stick with me,” she said. “No one here can hurt you again.” People whispered that she was dangerous. That her background was dirty. That she had seen and done things she would never confess. But I saw her crying alone in a tiny rented room. I heard the pain she tried so hard to hide. I realized she gave me all the softness she denied herself. She wasn’t my real sister— but she treated me better than family ever did. And somewhere along the line… the way I looked at her changed. Until the night I discovered her secret— a truth that could destroy both her future and mine. She lives in a world of neon lights, smoky bars, and invisible scars. But she is also the woman who taught me courage, tenderness, and desire. And I made a promise: If the world refuses to protect her, then I will. Because the boy she saved has grown up— and he’s coming back for her.
