The love-hate relationship of a killer female teacher and an iron-willed, upright criminal policewoman.... more>>

Starting from junior high school, Jiang Qinglan finally had light in her life. To support herself and her useless, wastrel father, Jiang Qinglan had to start working as a prostitute at the age of 13, doing unspeakable things. Verbal and physical abuse, going to school with a battered face, were only a matter of course.

Before Xue Yunxin appeared, Jiang Qinglan had never known what others called “love.”

She gave her manhua to read, took her out for fun, and gave her food. They did everything friends and family were supposed to do. Xue Yunxin was the light in Jiang Qinglan’s heart.

“Yunxin, will you leave me?”
“No! I’ll always be with you!”

After growing up, when thinking of these words, Jiang Qinglan only felt ridiculous. Liar!

And Xue Yunxin, who’d already become a criminal policewoman, had never expected that her reunion with Jiang Qinglan would be at the arrangement of a mu*derer. She’d also never expected that, one day, she would stand in opposition to her own lover. <<less

On the verge of becoming stagnant, rotten water, I was transferred to a dating simulation game.

Just as I was about to celebrate the end of a life chasing after the tails of criminals and screaming at the top of my lungs, a torn and shattered crimson system window appeared in my mind.
