When the last line of defense of reason meets the gentle inquiry of sensibility.
Shen Yizhou, 46 years old, is the president of the First Civil Trial Division of the Municipal Intermediate People's Court. He holds a gavel in his hand and believes that law is the ultimate criterion for maintaining social order. He has been obsessed with human relationships and right and wrong for half his life. He has already built a solid city in his heart where rationality is supreme.
Lin Zhiyi, 34 years old, is a teacher at a university psychology center. She has insight into people's hearts and believes that true salvation lies in understanding and healing. She is committed to exploring the warmth and glimmer of human nature under the cold rules of behavior.
A high-profile "campus loan" case brought them face to face in court. He is the majestic judge on the bench, and she is the expert who dares to question in the audience. A discussion about "legal principles" and "human feelings" quietly begins.
He tried to use the judgment to clarify all rights and wrongs, but he was subtly wavered in front of her sentence, "The law should see every specific person behind the judgment." She tried to heal all wounds with empathy, but she saw another kind of power in his persistence in seeking the greatest justice within the rules.
From peers who collide with each other's ideas to friends who fall in love with each other, this road is full of thorns. He carries the rigor and sensitivity endowed by his profession, while she conceals the hidden pain and strength left by her native family. When trust is tested, when the shadows of the past reappear, when communication is on the verge of despair... Can they find the balance point called "happiness" in the fierce collision of reason and sensibility?
This is not only an evenly matched love, but also an in-depth dialogue between law and psychology. They are mirrors to each other, reflecting each other's truest hurts.
