When the steady, precise scalpel meets the meticulous, sharp sword of the law, they are opponents, yet also each other’s strongest shield.
Xu Luheng is a partner at a top law firm who wields logic as a weapon, specializing in the defense of medical malpractice cases. Because of his past, he views doctors with professional scrutiny, though in private he hides a gentle fondness for collecting old medical texts.
Yun Shutan is deputy director of cardiac surgery at a top-tier hospital. She treats skill as her creed and holds fast to the principle that “life comes before procedure.” After refusing to cater to the powerful, she is repeatedly suppressed, yet never wavers in her original convictions.
A lawsuit over what is called “over-treatment” binds the two, who stand on opposite sides of the courtroom, together, and the gears of fate begin to turn.
Their first clash ends in mutual displeasure.
Later, he is no longer the attorney arguing against her, but an ally defending her and the truth. She is no longer someone under his scrutiny, but the strongest professional support he could ask for.
Watch the sword of the law and the blade of medicine join forces, pierce the fog, and protect the light together.
