...

Xue Guangli was a young woman who followed her mother’s legacy; she won’t marry to get above her status. She will earn it. 

However, when a tragedy struck her home, she lost sight of the things she wanted. 

To get her life in order, she must regain the classy legacy she left behind, find the real suspect of her mother’s killer, and pave a way through the challenges thrown at her. 

But when it comes to her mother’s murder trial, Xue Guangli is forced to get help from the man she hates the most—Long Huojin. Long Huojin is an achingly handsome and devastatingly perfect successor of a large conglomerate, but the two never got along. 

Xue Guangli hated Long Huojin for most of her life—so much that when he looks at her, she can hardly breathe. 

Long Huojin, on the other hand, secretly pines for Xue Guangli patiently waiting for the day she’ll let him in.

Wang Weimin's lawyer presented the documents.


"There is video surveillance of Mr. Long entering the home at the time of the murder."


On the screen, it showed Long Huojin entering and exiting the house that night, completely distraught. It stunned Xue Guangli, as she didn't know he there in the first place. 


"I want to speak on the connection between Mr. Xue and Mr. Long," Wang Weimin's lawyer began. 


"It appears that Mr. Xue bought technology from Long Group for military advancements. I believe that he uncovered some unethical secrets from the company, thus, threatening to expose Long Group. As a result, Mr. Long Huojin organized the murder of Xue Gao to silence him. As for the fatal wounds inflicted on Mrs. Xue, it was a result of being at the wrong place at the wrong time." 


"Thank you," said the judge. He looked over the documents, and said, "Can I have Mrs. Song present the details of the defendant."
