When Yan Cixia was fifteen years old, she followed her mother into the Li family and met seventeen-year-old Li Yichen. That young man who was as cold as snow became the only light in her gray youth with the words "Including me, you don't need to please anyone in this family." From then on, a decade-long silent secret love quietly grew in the name of pseudo-brother and sister.
She grew up to be a calm and sharp top lawyer, using legal rationality as armor; he became a rigorous and restrained heart surgeon, using the precision of a scalpel to build walls. They have successful careers and stand side by side, but they are repeatedly pulled apart in their relationship. Because of his deep-rooted inferiority complex and obsession with protecting her, he regarded every heartbeat as a betrayal of his "sister" and pushed her away with the most indifferent attitude, but appeared with the most decisive attitude at every moment when she needed protection.
When she bet her career against the world for him, and when she finally took out the "statement of love" written over ten years, she asked him: "Li Yichen, can you deny the authenticity of this evidence?"
This is a long lawsuit about love and unworthiness. She is the plaintiff and his only defense
