The city looked normal.
Busy.
Loud.
Alive.
But beneath it—
Something was moving again.
Jisoo sat in her office.
Calm on the outside.
But inside—
Nothing was calm.
Chapter 60 echoed in her mind.
Every word.
Every look.
"…We act like nothing happened…"
Her own voice felt distant now.
"…Why does it feel worse…" she whispered.
Her fingers tightened around the pen.
But she couldn't focus.
Because now—
It wasn't just the past.
It was something else.
Something coming.
Meanwhile—
Shen Yan stood near the window.
Silent.
Still.
But his thoughts—
Restless.
"…Jisoo…" he said softly.
Not hiding it anymore.
Not denying it.
Because now—
He remembered everything.
Every promise.
Every mistake.
Every moment he lost.
His jaw tightened.
"…This isn't over," he whispered.
But before anything could change—
Something else did.
At LH Group—
Minji rushed into his office.
"Sir," she said urgently.
Shen Yan turned immediately.
"What happened?"
Minji stepped forward.
"There's been another breach," she said.
Her voice serious.
"This time—it's targeted."
Silence.
Shen Yan's eyes darkened.
"…Targeted at what?" he asked.
Minji hesitated.
"…You," she replied.
A pause.
"And Man Ning."
The room went cold.
Shen Yan didn't move.
But his presence changed.
Sharp.
Dangerous.
"…Track everything," he said.
"Now."
Minji nodded quickly.
"Yes, sir."
Meanwhile—
In a hidden place—
Darkness filled the room.
Two figures stood apart.
Unseen.
Unrevealed.
"…They remember now," the first voice said quietly.
Calm.
Controlled.
The second figure stepped forward slightly.
"…Then we don't wait anymore," another voice replied.
Colder.
More dangerous.
A pause.
"…She interfered last time," the second voice continued.
"Saved him."
Silence.
Then—
A faint, chilling tone—
"…This time… she won't be able to."
Back in the city—
Jisoo stood up suddenly.
A strange feeling.
Stronger than before.
Like something was wrong.
Very wrong.
At the same time—
Shen Yan stopped mid-step.
The same feeling hit him.
Both unaware—
That the danger had already begun moving.
Not watching anymore.
Not waiting.
Acting.
Later that evening—
Jisoo walked out alone.
The streets quieter now.
Lights dim.
Her steps steady.
But her mind—
Not.
A shadow moved behind her.
Silent.
Careful.
She stopped.
Slowly turning.
"…Who's there?" she said.
No answer.
Only silence.
But this time—
She didn't ignore it.
Her eyes sharpened.
Because now—
She understood something.
This wasn't coincidence.
This was planned.
Elsewhere—
Shen Yan received a message.
Unknown number.
No name.
Only one line—
"Stay away from her."
His expression darkened instantly.
His grip tightened.
"…Too late," he said quietly.
Because now—
He wouldn't step back.
Not again.
Back in the shadows—
The two figures stood still.
Watching.
Waiting.
"…Let's see how far they go this time," one voice said.
The other responded softly—
"…Not far."
Silence returned.
But it wasn't empty.
It was dangerous.
Because the game—
Had started.
👉 Some enemies don't attack immediately.
👉 They wait… until you have something to lose.
