Three years ago, an important lawsuit turned intern Lin Wan into a stepping stone on Lu Chengyu's way to the top. The phrase "the weak are not worthy of negotiating fairness" became the deepest thorn in her heart. Three years later, she returned strongly as the youngest partner of Raycus Law Firm, with legal weapons in her fingertips and ice-cold eyes, vowing to regain her own dignity in front of the man who once crushed her.
At the negotiation table, she was a "gold lawyer" who refused to give in, using her precise professionalism to dismantle Lu Group's capital traps and crush his arrogance one by one; in the smoke of the workplace, she built a legal barrier for Xingtu Technology and fought her way through the turbulent business wars, impressing those who once despised her.
But Lu Chengyu's gaze always followed him like a shadow. He is a domineering CEO in the shopping mall, but he has repeatedly failed in front of her - his pressing steps during negotiations hide an unnoticeable concern, the hot milk tea delivered late at night has the warmth of old times, and his desperate fighting in the fire has torn away all disguises.
"Why are you so nice to me?"
"Because I regret it."
The truth of that year gradually emerged, the fulcrum of hatred collapsed, but the deep love became clearer in the confrontation. She was killing people in the workplace, and he was tossing and turning in her longing; she used a hard shell to resist the trap of tenderness, and he tasted the pain of lovesickness at the peak of power. This game that started with harm finally shines into the thorny past with tenderness like moonlight.
When the arrogant CEO learns to bow his head, and when the thorny rose lowers its guard, can they survive the smoke of business war and the cracks of old wounds?
