Reunited After Years Apart, Lawyer Fu, Let’s Keep This Professional

[Both leads are inexperienced in love + one-on-one romance + two lawyers + rekindled romance + evenly matched bickering + jealous hero + happy ending] [Bright, clear-eyed lawyer heroine × cool, stubborn, deeply devoted hero] After Xu Zhiyi and Fu Shiyan meet again, she insists their past is long behind them, while he insists on keeping things strictly professional. But whenever someone gives her a hard time, he’s always the first to step in. He knows better than anyone when she’s feeling unwell. And when another man appears by her side, he’s clearly seething with jealousy, yet all he can manage is a chilly reminder: “People who aren’t involved should stay out of it.” Xu Zhiyi always assumed he was simply too much of a workaholic, controlling, and fond of meddling. It wasn’t until later that she realized: He followed the rules with everyone else, but when it came to her, everything was an exception. She didn’t dare turn back, so he hid all his favoritism in one “just happened to” after another. Xu Zhiyi finally snapped: “Lawyer Fu, how long are you planning to keep interfering in my life?” The man who was always so composed finally looked at her without making excuses. “Until you’re willing to admit we’re more than just colleagues.”
