Her name was Chen Xiangsheng, and she grew like wild grass.
Abandoned by her closest family, she trudged through childhood and adolescence amid rumors and bullying.
Life offered her nothing but thorns, yet she saw them as just another part of the road, because she had once known the most precious warmth in the world.
Becoming a lawyer was her fight to escape the mire. She thought the light had finally arrived, only to discover that shadows still lurked beneath the law.
She used herself as bait to drag her abuser into court, but the verdict she won could not restore her good name.
When a soul has been repeatedly battered but never truly broken, it may eventually find a quiet place to kindle a little light for itself and the people it loves.
