Background / History
Ten years before the main events, Su Yao was a timid girl who was bullied because of her police-officer father. Fei Yangyao frightened the bullies away, carried her home after she sprained her ankle in the rain, treated her injury, and urged her to become stronger rather than remain helpless. These experiences became the foundation of her admiration for him. 108 109 113
By adulthood, Su Yao had become a police officer and a Martial Master, outwardly fearless and strongly committed to justice. However, her childhood fear of thunderstorms intensified over the years despite her formidable combat ability. 46 47 124
Appearance

Personality
Su Yao is righteous, direct, and confident in her own strength. Her instinct is to intervene personally when people are in danger, even when doing so alone is tactically unwise. 46 47
She is also emotionally earnest and deeply grateful toward those who help her. Once she recognizes Fei Yangyao as the same person who protected her in childhood and saved her again at the abandoned factory, she becomes unusually bold and persistent in pursuing him. 102 113 117
Despite her fearless public image, thunderstorms leave her vulnerable and dependent on reassurance. After overcoming that fear, she deliberately pretends to remain frightened to keep Fei Yangyao close, showing a playful and calculating side beneath her sincerity. 124 126

Story Role / Major Arcs
Abandoned Factory Rescue
After receiving an anonymous alert about an abandoned factory in Changning District, Su Yao enters alone to confront kidnappers and rescue hostages. She defeats the gang's outer members, captures an elderly leader, and negotiates the hostages' release. 46 47 48
The operation collapses when the final “hostage” is revealed to be the disguised leader. Su Yao is struck by a poisoned hidden weapon, weakened, and bound. Fei Yangyao intervenes after the confrontation, stabilizes her wounds, and evacuates her. 49 52
Fei Yangyao's Amnesia
When Hong Song attacks Fei Yangyao, Su Yao finds him injured and learns that he has lost his memories. Believing that posing as his girlfriend will allow her to care for him and repay his past kindness, she tells him that they are together. 102 103
Her deception becomes difficult to sustain after she learns of Gu Xiyue and the other women living in Fei Yangyao's home. Rather than withdrawing, Su Yao eventually admits that she has liked him since childhood. 104 111 113
Overcoming Her Fear of Thunderstorms
Fei Yangyao accepts a mission to help Su Yao confront her fear of thunderstorms. Her initial attempts fail repeatedly; she instinctively runs to him whenever thunder strikes. 119 123 124
During her final trial, Fei Yangyao holds her hands instead of allowing her to hide from the storm. Su Yao faces the thunder directly and realizes that she is no longer truly afraid, though she briefly feigns fear to receive more affection from him. 126 127
Partnership with Fei Yangyao
Su Yao becomes increasingly involved in cases surrounding Ye Chen and the criminal network in Changning District. Her professional concern for Fei Yangyao repeatedly conflicts with her personal feelings, particularly whenever he places himself in danger. 225 270 311
After Fei Yangyao recovers key childhood memories, the two finally address their feelings directly. He asks her to remain by his side, and Su Yao agrees despite her misgivings about his existing relationships. 315 317
