Three women graduated from the law schools of second-tier colleges.
Ten years later.
One struggled mightily to pass the bar exam and became a lawyer with no clients. Just when she finally met a “benefactor,” she became his ambiguous “mistress.” Is her career over for good...?
One is still dreaming of fairytale encounters with princes, moving among all sorts of men and becoming a bona fide “player.” Is she destined to be unlucky in love and never marry...?
One is a junior civil servant unwilling to settle for the ceiling of a staff-level post. She works diligently but never gets promoted, while her home life is a complete mess. Should she just head for the mountains to cultivate immortality and chant Buddhist prayers...?
No. There is a long road ahead, and the future is unwritten. Any of us could yet be a dark horse.
(My first attempt at a sweet romance. I'll see it through to the end.)
