After Dark

share time: 2025-12-01 00:35:06

Lin Xiaoman, an ad agency social animal, breaks down and squats by the road after working overtime until dark, only to bump into Gu Chengchuan, a man covered in wounds. On a whim, she takes him home, thinking she’s picked up a “poor boy on the run”—but he’s actually the heir to the business empire “Jiangshan Group,” who has been in hiding for three years. Gu Chengchuan disguised himself as a down-and-out to investigate the internal traitor in his company, but he’s touched by Lin Xiaoman’s passion and kindness. With his silent help, Lin Xiaoman goes from a scapegoat to a project leader, and discovers that this “poor boy” is the industry legend she admires. When the traitor surfaces and Gu Chengchuan has to return to the group, Lin Xiaoman backs down due to their status gap—yet he pulls her into his arms with a smile: “The Jiangshan I want has always been you.”
