Hey, He's Your Supervising Lawyer

The handsome, brilliant supervising lawyer, Chu Yixian: "Why did you choose to become a criminal defense lawyer?"

The beautiful, androgynous trainee lawyer, Lin Leyi: Because I like you.

But he couldn't say something like that right when they met, or the other person would think he was a lovesick idiot, a fool smitten with someone.

So instead he said, "I don't want to follow the path my parents chose for me. If they tell me to go east, I'll go west." Lin Leyi was twenty-five, a trainee lawyer who had never been out of his parents' sight, from childhood to adulthood.

Chu Yixian, the supervising lawyer who had lost both parents early in life, was baffled. "Are you sick or something?"

Lin Leyi was the only child of an intellectual family, tall and handsome, and a bit of a loose cannon. He seemed carefree, but was actually sensitive when it came to love. With a crush on his supervising lawyer, he stepped into the legal profession.

Before he even started at the firm, supervising lawyer Chu Yixian had already dismissed him: "I don't mentor half-baked trainees."

On his first day at the firm, he was also mistaken for the wrong gender by Attorney Chu.

Lin Leyi, meanwhile, could think of nothing but: This guy is so handsome. I like him.

Although Attorney Chu had never been in a relationship, he was still righteous and adamant: "I'm straight."

(Question: Is there any evidence to prove that?)

Love is a light in the darkness, and Lin Leyi is willing to be a moth drawn to it. Though the way he flutters toward it is hard for a straight man to judge, and the light doesn't respond, trying to reject him.

But who's to say that when the moth stops fluttering, the light won't feel lonely?

Younger man, one-on-one romance, happy ending. Workplace setting.

Note: After the unrequited love ends, they rush toward each other.
