After five years, Ning Xi returned to the place that had pushed her away — home. With a sister who turned her parents against her and made her childhood sweetheart betray her, the odds seemed grey. However, five years abroad had changed her, and she came home to fulfil her childhood dream of becoming an actress. Despite her evil sister still out to get her, tables will be turned. One day, after falling into one of her sister's schemes, she saves an adorable kid and found herself staying at his house to help him come out of his shell. Slowly, his father Lu Tingxiao began falling for her. This was before they realised how their lives had been intertwined all this while without their knowledge.
Lu Jingli was about to break into the room to rescue her, when he saw the situation inside flip 180 degrees, and he just stood where he was, stupefied.
"Single-handedly… and even with a gun! Holy shit! If I’m right, that’s a Beretta 92F! Where did she get that from?" Lu Jingli was impressed.
Then a miserable thought floated through his mind after that: his second chance today to become the hero who saved the beauty had fallen through yet again!
Inside the house, Zhang Qiang stared intently at the gun in Ning Xi’s hand, afraid that she would fire at the slightest provocation like earlier. She left him no leeway to react at all, how cruel!
"I, I, I… I’m telling the truth! Every single word is true! Otherwise, may the heavens strike me down with thunder and lightning!"
Ning Xi didn't say anything, and he didn't know if she really believed him or not. She spun the gun in her hand skillfully.
