She Came Into My Quarters

Shen Lihan is the deputy captain of the Economic Crime Investigation Detachment—cold, precise, and unfeeling. Having been in the force for fifteen years, he has only ever worked to clear up a cold case: his father was framed for embezzling public funds and died in prison, leaving behind a suicide note with only five words: I am innocent. Wen Ruzhou was transferred over from the Audit Office. She has pear blossoms of dimples when she smiles and looks harmless, but in truth, she is the most adept at making people lower their guard. At their first meeting, Shen Lihan resented her for being five minutes late, while she resented Shen Lihan for throwing his official weight around too much. One tracks money with data, while the other pries mouths open with gentle charm. From illegal fundraising to money laundering, listed company fraud, and cross-border financial crimes, their partnership in solving cases is seamless, yet neither is willing to speak their feelings first. It isn’t until Wen Ruzhou walks in using herself as bait that Shen Lihan’s hands tremble as he rushes into the alley. Five volumes from entering into the ledger to balancing the books, every single entry is settled. Except for the one in his heart, which will forever be short of her count. — Description from novelcodex.orgFull novel: She Came Into My Quarters — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠
