Shen Yan is a legend in Jiangcheng's legal circles. In five years of solo practice, he has never lost a case. He has beaten countless renowned lawyers through sheer skill, stands firm for justice, and only takes cases he believes in. He is deeply respected by clients from humble backgrounds.
Su Wan comes from an ordinary working-class family. She worked tirelessly to earn her law license, determined to help ordinary people get justice. But at a small law firm, her colleagues repeatedly schemed against her. Cases were snatched away, evidence was mishandled, and she lost nearly every case she took. Yet she was tenacious, quietly reviewing her mistakes and growing after every defeat, never losing sight of why she became a lawyer.
A wage dispute involving migrant workers shatters the calm. The contractor has withheld their hard-earned pay and is brazenly unapologetic. The case is so difficult that no one dares take it, but Su Wan accepts it without hesitation. Meanwhile, the contractor hires Shen Yan at a hefty fee to represent him. At first, Shen is in it for the money, and when he meets Su Wan, he mocks her for overestimating herself.
But as Shen reviews the case, he uncovers the truth: the contractor has concealed evidence. He immediately switches sides. Su Wan's tenacity and sincerity move him, and the two former adversaries become partners. Together, they speak up for ordinary people and defend justice, and as they stand by each other, a love grows between them, with both of them moving toward the other.
Not bad, I really like legal novels
The plot is exciting and the length is moderate. It's my favorite legal theme
