Ten years ago, Sheng Qiuxing abandoned his career in finance to study law after his beloved grandfather died in a tragic accident—his reputation tarnished, his lifelong honor destroyed. Determined to clear his grandfather’s name and prove he had been framed, Sheng Qiuxing hardened his heart through years of relentless pursuit of justice, eventually becoming a cold, unyielding, and renowned lawyer.
After returning to China from his studies abroad, Sheng Qiuxing began practicing law in Nan City. While handling cases, he continued his clandestine investigation into the truth behind his grandfather’s downfall.
His grandfather, He Rui, had been a celebrated finance professor at Nan City University and a nationally renowned financial expert, instrumental in numerous high-profile commercial cases. Yet in the end, criminals exploited his name to orchestrate a massive financial scam. Shortly after, He Rui died in a car accident—while the embezzled funds vanished without a trace. The meticulously planned crime was pinned on him, leaving his legacy in ruins and his spirit unable to rest in peace.
This injustice became a thorn in Sheng Qiuxing’s heart. Now, armed with the law, he is ready to drag the true culprits into court, expose their crimes, and restore his grandfather’s honor—no matter the cost.
