* Have you ever thought about it, Song Zhi?
What would it be like to save a panic disorder patient who failed a nine-part personality assessment?
When she was thirteen,
Song Zhi rescued a wickedly handsome man who had been drugged by an old rich woman.
Not only was he ungrateful, he turned around and blamed her. Bending down to meet her eyes, he grinned roguishly. “Little girl, you’ve ruined your big brother’s livelihood. You’ll have to take responsibility.”
Song Zhi: “What am I supposed to take responsibility for?”
“...”
The man brushed a finger over the tip of Song Zhi’s nose. The smile faded from his peach-blossom eyes. “You’ll have to take care of your big brother.”

The man who fell ill whenever a thunderstorm struck was a complete lunatic. In the rain, he smashed his head against the ground until it was bloody.
Song Zhi rushed into the rain. “Big brother!”
She could barely keep her eyes open as the rain battered her, but stubbornly reached out and placed her hand beneath him, letting his forehead strike her palm.
But he said, “Stay away from your big brother, and be good.”

Years later, the once-obscure man committed several criminal cases that shocked the nation in quick succession. He became the hottest criminal defense lawyer in the country, with his fees soaring.
At the end of April that year, the man took on a sexual assault case with a very generous fee.
The client wanted an acquittal.
Smoking a cigarette, he smiled faintly. “No problem.”
But when he learned that Song Zhi was the plaintiff, everything went completely off the rails.
...He beat his own client into the hospital.
Half a month later, the renowned Lawyer Wen appeared in court as a defendant for the first time.
At the end of a long street, Song Zhi saw him. Just as he had all those years ago, he bent down and smiled at her tenderly, so tenderly it was impossible to miss.
“Big brother messed up a case. Zhizhi, will you take care of me?”
Song Zhi feigned composure. “You’re not the lawyer you used to be, Mr. Wen. I can’t afford to support you.”
Wen Shili: “Of course you can. Big brother doesn’t eat much.”
“...”
Song Zhi thought it over seriously, then replied, “How about two steamed buns per meal?”
He answered without hesitation. “Sure.”
·Starving to death, with only five yuan in his pocket
·Still, he’d rather buy Zhizhi a rose
I don’t care if I live or die. I want romance.
Wen Shili
★ A sweet-faced girl with a knack for social embarrassment x a flirtatious, sharp-tongued top criminal defense lawyer
Six-and-a-half-year age gap / one-sided crush → mutual crush / slow, gradual romance / HE, lighthearted, healing and sweet :D
Theme: A story about love and redemption.
Wen Shili and Song Zhi, you want to be happy
In fact, I was really sad when I didn't see Zhizhi and Nini walking around and taking classes like little sisters.
I really like Nini's character
It's Song Zhi who is young and full of love, and Wen Shili who doesn't want to hurt little Song Zhi even if he gets sick. Let's live happily!!!!!
After reading it, I couldn't let it go for a long time. I couldn't think of the next novel. I kept thinking about the plot, which made me feel a little bored.
The female protagonist doesn't love the male protagonist enough and is not very lovable. Most of the plot comes from the weak sense of network substitution. Still a great book
HE or BE, let the two of them be freed as soon as possible.
I feel like Nini is going to commit suicide. BE, BE, it's too torturous
Ah, that's great!! Be happy forever
