When lawyer Wu Fei was being interviewed, his son got into a car accident. The person who wrote the story was his white moonlight Wu You Wei. For the honor of being a gold medal lawyer, Wu Fei chose to defend his white moonlight and forced his wife Jiang Xin to sign the settlement agreement so that white moonlight could escape from the car accident. However, Jiang Xin realized that the car accident did not seem simple and refused to sign the settlement agreement. As a gold medal lawyer, Wu Fei chose to stand on the opposite side of his wife for the sake of honor, and tried to use power and law as weapons with Wu You Ling to force Jiang Xin to surrender. Jiang Xin understood that she could only deal with this war by herself. (Source: Chinese = Taicike.com || Translation = Google Translate) Edit Translation

Heartbreaking tale of a grieving mother betrayed by her husband

I was preparing a reddit post on a collection of Han Jia Hui dramas so I chose this one for research. I had never seen Zhou Hang's dramas before. Thank gosh drama is less than 1 hour because I was heartbroken.

What I liked:
1. Acting - This is the most dramatic role Han Jia Hui has portrayed. She was good in her role of a grieving mother and a betrayed wife. Zhou Hang did well in his role too - he wasn't over the top since his character was a moron. However I wish he expressed anguish when he found out about his son's passing.
2. Supporting character - I really liked FL's sister who was there during tough times.
3. Pacing - Well-paced and written. A betrayal tale told in less than 1 hour. It wasn't draggy.
4. Backstory - I appreciated that writer added a challenge for FL's sister. I also appreciated that writer made the antagonist a public figure so when she was brought down, she lost a lot.
5. Trust - I liked that trust was a value highlighted in this story. There was no point for reconciliation / support when the trust is gone.

What I disliked:
1. Antagonist - One of the most evil antagonists in vertical dramas - she harmed a child! Manipulative too. Her assistant was an idiot for agreeing to be an accomplice.
2. ML characterisation - He was an a$$hole for putting his & his white moonlight's needs first. For a successful lawyer, he was a moron for not checking for his son's health updates.
3. Cheating - Even though the relationship of ML and antagonist was lawyer-client and not lovers, I still considered him as a cheater. Emotional cheating because he prioritised his ex over his wife and believed every single thing his ex said.
