#The biggest taboo in this line of work is falling for a client#
After finally making it through her internship, newly licensed lawyer Chen Rumian had never even considered looking for a partner.
Her family urged her to get married, arguing emphatically, "You'll be all alone and miserable when you're old. Hurry up and have a child while we're still young enough to help you raise them."
Chen Rumian replied impatiently, "Then I'll find someone who's divorced and has a child. That'll make you happy."
She'd only said it offhandedly.
The next day, Chen Rumian met the client for her first case.
The woman was stunning, her voice calm but resolute. "Can you help me get divorced and make sure I get custody of my daughter?"
Chen Rumian replied instinctively, "Of course. My legal fees are..."
Xiao Li leaned closer, her eyes brimming with tears as she pleaded softly, "I don't have much money. Could you give me a discount?"
Before she finished speaking, the woman's coat slipped off by accident, revealing a smooth, snowy-white shoulder and a delicate collarbone. The room was suddenly filled with an enchanting atmosphere.
Watching Chen Rumian blush and grow flustered, Xiao Li swept a loose strand of hair aside and murmured, "I'm sorry."
Accompanied by a faint, almost imperceptible laugh, the woman's sweet scent drifted past her nose. As if possessed, Chen Rumian closed her eyes and nodded, her heart pounding wildly.
The legal fees would be free... but there would be another price to pay.
A loyal puppy of a lawyer x a seductive mature woman, who has a daughter.
"I'll use the law I've learned to help you. If that doesn't work, I'll use everything I have to fight for you."
"The pear blossoms are about to bloom. Wherever you are is spring."
Please don't nitpick unless you can show me your lawyer's license.
No romance before the divorce.
