During the winter rain in Haicheng, legal aid lawyer Shen Yan reunited with his old friend Wen Ruan, who had disappeared for seven years, in front of a defamation subpoena.
She is the author who exposed the truth about the mining disaster. She was threatened and sued for her article "Under Black Gold", and she was in a state of embarrassment.
And he is now a lawyer who stands in court and refuses to give in.
Seven years ago, they agreed in the wind and snow in Yunzhou that they would go to Haicheng together to speak out for the silent people.
Later, one person went to Quanzhou and another to Haicheng, and the young man's thoughts were cut off by reality.
We haven't seen her for seven years, but when we meet again, she is involved in a lawsuit and is surrounded by enemies.
Wen Ruan was afraid of bringing up old things again and dragging him down again. He just wanted to bear all the threats and criticisms alone.
But Shen Yan picked up the crumpled summons with a firm gaze: From today on, I am your attorney.
The truth she writes is her father's unexplained grievances;
The conscience she wants to uphold is the justice she must try her best to uphold.
A yellowed old letter from home, a deep love hidden for seven years, was re-opened on a rainy night.
This time, she used her pen as a blade to illuminate the injustice in the dark;
She uses the law as a shield to block all open and hidden arrows.
It's not too late to come side by side.
Together, they want to return the buried truth to the world
Intention: To meet again after a long separation, go in both directions, heal each other and grow together in love and protection.
