The plot is simple, straight police officer goes undercover to take down criminals, falls in love with the gay son of the crime leader. MC is the gong, ML is the shou.

I liked the story, and I rate it here as 5 stars because it's good and I don't want it to lower its rating, however in my heart I give it 4 stars instead of 5 because I feel like I didn't really understand how the relationship developed. I mean, almost everything is from the MC's point of view and I understand more or less the reason why he fell in love with the ML but I have to say that I don't really understand at what point I can say that the ML fell in love, since At the beginning, for example, he is a little obsessed with his scar and I don't know if the author forgets that because although (ML) says at the end that he already knew the identity of the MC's police officer because of something that happened when he was 13 years old that he had to to do with a robbery they leave it up to interpretation -- and let's say that it is not at all serious or a matter of importance to many but those small details that are left to free interpretation or ambiguity really leave me with a bad taste in my mouth, Because throughout the entire reading the ML maintains an attitude that I would say is "Tibia", he appears dependent but at the same time he distances him for several chapters and I feel that in a certain way their relationship does not advance much either.

Another point is regarding the secondary characters, those who are ultimately important and give the final evidence to 'catch' the ML's father - whose names I don't remember - I didn't really understand what they were doing, I feel more like they had suddenly appeared, They would have become friends with the MC, help him in the plot and then say goodbye and disappear again, which also stresses me out a little.

However, I must finally say that despite showing a 'discomfort' with my previous words, I really don't feel that it was a bad read despite the small 'plot holes' which I also think are minimal details which are very I usually notice in detail, I really liked what I read, reading filled me with emotions - emotions like suspense, sadness, joy, tenderness - and that is the most important thing for me and for which I give 5 stars, because I had a good time.

Shi Hongqian deserved his own happy ending with his love.

I know that MC has a mission and I also know how ruthless undercover officers are (from movies, of course). But when Shou was being dragged to the dark room, screaming and crying for help, and MC did nothing..... I wanted to kill him. MC is actually a pretty well written character. But I wish there was a variation of this story where the shou's love isn't a cop. Better if it's someone on the dark side, because if I want to see a scenario where shou doesn't get badly hurt, but is pulled out of that hell anyway, that's the kind of partner who could help him with that. To let MC run away, he even went through hell all over again. Although the impact is not high on the reader because we never saw shou's POV..... just imagining it breaks my heart to pieces. Again, MC is a well written character with clear motivations and goals. But I really can't get myself to like him, given the number of times I literally wanted to kill him with the way he treated shou at times. It was very VERY frustrating.
