Their mission ignites when **Liú Xīngchén (柳星辰)**, China’s most luminous actress, joins their ranks.

But the Loom’s mastermind watches from the glittering darkness, ready to shred their new family apart. From haunted alleyways to vipers’ ballrooms, Qí Hǔ and Xīngchén walk a razor’s edge between vengeance and redemption—where every stitch in the shadows could save Shanghai... or unravel their souls.
