Such a bittersweet ending!! I read the webnovel so I knew what happened between the places the artists couldn't do bc of time. I'm glad they were able to do this even though they had to end it sooner than they expected... This was the first manhua I knew I had to finish when bilibili announced that they had to shut down, so here we are! Lovely art 🥰🥰🥰

Han Xiaomei was right. Yan Xie truly is terminally straight

Con este tipo de novelas con tramas serias, misterios profundos y personajes misteriosos, me tomo la tarea de leer tanto de manera critica como ligera. Desde hace mucho tiempo había tenido la mira en esta novela y algo dentro de mi me decía que sería una de mis favoritas (spoiler: si lo fue) y cuando vi que su traducción había sido concluida me lance a leerla.
No voy a dar una reseña por cada volumen -que pereza- así que daré una critica en base a todo lo que leí en esta novela.
En primer lugar algo que me atrapo desde el primer instante fue el personaje de Yan Xie, un hombre rico de unos treinta años que ha vivido su vida desenfrenada sin conseguir una conquista. Guapo, formidable y confiable, yo estaba al mereced de este hombre. Desde el momento en que conoce a Jiang Ting siente cierta conexión que le hace querer estar más cerca de él y me sorprendio que no solo combinaran bien en el crimen sino también fuera del trabajo. Yan Xie sigue los casos junto con Jiang Ting y ambos hacen un buen equipo, pero obvio no deja de indagar más sobre Jiang Ting y su pasado.
Jiang Ting a su vez (no le tengo miedo a la funa ok?) fue un personaje que no me caía bien. Siempre estaba con Yan Xie y a su vez no, era un cuerda floja entre la confianza y la pasión. No me agradaba el detalle de que a pesar de vivir con el, salir con él y demás, él seguí ocultándole cosas. En su momento llegue a dedicarle un hilo odiándolo... hoy puedo dedicárselo pero amandolo JAJAJ
En cuanto a la trama me encantaron los casos, seguí el hilo de la tensión hasta el ultimo momento y me quedaba atrapada con cada nueva pista. Un solo detalle que no me gusto y esto si tengo que decirlo es (alerta spoiler) fue el personaje de Haitao K y su obsesión con Jiang Ting. Este capo de la droga pudo haber sido el mejor! seguir escalando! pero todo se fue a la mierda porque decidió mantener a Jiang Ting a su lado. Me hubiera gustado que fuera un poco más cruel y desconfiado pero lo tomare como conveniencia de la trama.
En fin no quiero darle larga al asunto porque no me gusta criticar punto por punto, solo dire que me gusto mucho y para rematarla fue mejor con los extras, ahí confirme el amor que se tenían Jiang Ting y Yan Xie porque no hubo anda más hermoso que los extras de su boda (alerta de spoiler tarde) para resumir los extras se basa en: preparación de la boda, más preparación, celos de Jiang Ting, aparicion de un personaje, y de otro también importante en la trama y un final 10/10
Es que woa, no puedo describir mi sentir con palabras. Estoy gratamente agradecida de haber leido esta novela, ¿ahora que hare con el vacio que siento? AKJSJAKS t.t

I don’t think I’ve ever laughed this hard while reading a crime novel—let alone one dealing with heavy themes like drug trafficking, violence, and trauma. Yet here we are. Breaking Through the Clouds is a whirlwind of razor-sharp wit, heart-stopping tension, and a romance so electric it left me breathless.
From the very first chapter, I was hooked—not just by the intricate crime plot (which is brilliantly crafted), but by the explosive chemistry between the two leads. Yan Xie, the smug, flirtatious detective with the emotional depth of a golden retriever, and Jiang Ting, the enigmatic, razor-tongued amnesiac with enough sass to power a small city—their dynamic is everything. The banter? Hilarious. The tension? Palpable. The moments where their walls crumble, revealing raw vulnerability? I wept.
Huai Shang has this incredible gift for balancing darkness with humor. One second, you’re gripped by a brutal case; the next, you’re wheezing at Yan Xie’s shameless flirting or Jiang Ting’s deadpan comebacks. The emotional whiplash is real, and I loved every second of it. Even in the darkest moments, there’s warmth—a reminder of humanity amid the chaos.
And oh, the pining. The insecurity. The way these two idiots orbit each other, desperate and hesitant and so obviously in love—it’s painfully good. If you’ve ever craved a danmei that blends crime thriller intensity with a romance that’s equal parts hilarious and heartbreaking, this is it.
I finished the book in a daze—laughing, crying, and immediately diving into the sequel. If you love smart, emotionally layered stories with unforgettable characters, don’t miss this. Just be prepared to lose sleep, because once you start, you won’t stop.

I had high hopes picking this book
Most times I don't even understand what was going on due to the diction of the work.
The chronology is giving me serious migraine.
Confusion is just everywhere.
Why does sex between Yan xie and Jiang Ting feels like rape all the time.
Yan xie forcing himself on Jiang Ting.
Can't both parties agree to have intercourse and engaged in it actively with passion.
I'm tired of reading this forceful acts seem this book encourages the act.
I don't know the state of mind of the Author I would love to understand why everything is always forced between the two main characters.
Why Yan xie talk down on women??
Why he wants to take Jiang Ting has a wife not husband??
I'm tired of reading about the kings of spade, Nothing interesting about him.
The police force is a clown circus with clowns everywhere.
This book has no direction from the beginning to the end
At a point I wondered if this book is meant for humans.

4.5⭐️Just because the ending was a bit rushed and they didn’t continue the novel. “Yeah my boyfriend is pretty cool, but he’s not as cool as me” coded. I LOVED the main characters. One of the best manhua I’ve read in a while.

Breaking Through the Clouds
Rating: 4.5⭐️
Premise: Three years after the Captain of Crime Investigation Team, Jiang Ting, died in a failed operation against a large syndicate, Yan Xie, Vice Captain of the Crime Investigation Team, sees a man who seems oddly familiar. Caught in a web of lies, crimes, and betrayal, Yan Xie forges ahead, seeking the truth of what happened three years ago.
Review: As an action, mystery, and crime-investigation novel, “Breaking Through the Clouds” is a clear 5/5. It had me at the edge of my seat itching to get to the revelations. It really did a good job of hooking the reader with scattered clues and hints all the while never really being clear on the circumstances of three years ago.
You can’t rest easy with what they’re revealing either, those clues could be outright lies or carefully manipulated truth.
That said, I would have docked it a star since the romance wasn’t well-developed. The initial romantic buildup was lacking in substance, it just wasn’t convincing enough. I do think the MC and ML could fit together, that wasn’t the problem, it was the execution of it that failed to deliver.
In the end, the reason why I only had 0.5 stars removed was because the romance did one aspect well.
Since they were on uncertain grounds with the MC being a police officer and the ML basically being a fugitive whose motives are unknown and has an undeniable connection with a large figure in the underworld, the MC and ML, though confirming that they had an attraction and affection for one another, were at a stalemate where they could trust the other with their lives but couldn’t trust that the other is not hiding something that would be detrimental to their respective plans.
I really liked that part and it was well-executed, so while the initial foundation for the relationship was lacking, that part of the romance had me interested.
