Episode 1
Pan Yan and Su Yi Nan started as interns at Rongke Law Firm at the same time.
They are as different as night and day. Su Yi Nan is from a privileged background while Pan Yan was from an ordinary family.
Pan Yan’s mother is so proud of him and had called his aunts and uncles and everyone she knew that her son is now a lawyer. Pan Yan kept telling her that he is yet to become a lawyer but he was talking with deaf ears so it was easier to just agree or ignore what his mother brags about.
The work environment was a jungle. He was told that a whole team resigned at the same time and only the no-hoper were left.
Pan Yan’s first task was to clear the bulletin board of leavers’ names and their photos.
I like the drama, it is so raw. Reminds me of my first day at work where I wanted to resign immediately. LOL
