On the day of the internship interview at Huanjing Law Firm, there were more than 20 applicants vying for just two positions. Pan Yan, a young man living in a bungalow, got an interview opportunity through a friend and hurriedly washed up before rushing over, without even putting on the suit his mother had taken out for him. On the other hand, Shu Yinan, who lived in a luxury villa, dressed in a high-end suit and drove to the interview. However, he went to Huanjing Law Firm and coincidentally met the interviewer in the elevator, smoothly introducing himself. Pan Yan also squeezed into the same elevator, feeling embarrassed as he looked around and saw that all the other applicants were wearing suits while he was in casual clothes. It was only when he arrived at the law firm with everyone else that Pan Yan realized he had gone to the wrong place and immediately turned around to rush to Rongke.

When he arrived at Rong Ke's office, his friend's request had already been waiting for a long time. Pan Yan approached and greeted Zuo Na, explaining that he had been delayed by something. Zuo Na directly took Pan Yan to Du Feiyu's office and asked him to accept the interview. After reading Pan Yan's resume, Du Feiyu was interested in the cases he had handled and asked Pan Yan to carefully explain the process of the case, which mainly involved property disputes arising from the father's failure to repay borrowed money. Considering that hiring an outside lawyer was too expensive, Pan Yan represented himself and successfully won the case by presenting evidence. Du Feiyu was satisfied with what he heard and continued to ask for a practical solution to the issue of different amounts of money. Pan Yan's realistic response passed the interview, and he was assigned to work under the guidance of intern lawyer Zuo Na.

Meanwhile, Shu Yinan was interviewing at the Huanjing Law Firm. His resume was excellent and he smoothly answered the interviewer's questions, catching the attention of Liao Songting, who had recently arrived at the firm. After the interview, Liao Songting went to Rongke to try and take away Lu Shuangjian's client information. Zuo Na was hesitant, so he brought up their previous teacher-student relationship to try and get what he wanted. Pan Yan, who was nearby, saw this and quickly called Yi Fan over to help Zuo Na out. Yi Fan and Pan Yan worked together to convince Liao Songting to back down, and the client information was successfully kept.

Later, Pan Yan learned from his colleague about Rong Ke's past. It turned out that when Liao Songting joined Rong Jing, he took away several excellent lawyers, which made Rong Ke very quiet and lost many clients. Pan Yan was surprised to hear this because he thought Rong Ke still had many elites, but apparently only a few newbies were left. Since Rong Ke was too busy, Du Feiyu asked Zuo Na to delegate some work to Pan Yan, as they were relatives. Zuo Na took Pan Yan to a place where nobody was around, told him not to disclose their relationship, and asked him to go downstairs to buy food.

When Pan Yan was going downstairs, he met Shu Yinan in the elevator. They greeted each other and asked about their interview results. Shu Yinan was surprised to learn that Pan Yan had passed the interview and had already started working. They didn't talk for long before parting ways. After buying lunch, Pan Yan went to the office and invited Zuo Na and Du Feiyu to eat together. During the meal, Du Feiyu talked about Lu Shuangjian's client, and he was worried that the case would be taken over by Liao Songting. As expected, Zuo Na called Xiao Ai and learned that Lu Shuangjian had decided to go on a business trip. She felt disappointed, as losing an important client was a big blow. Du Feiyu comforted Zuo Na, saying that losing cases was common, but Zuo Na didn't want to give up. She planned to continue to work hard and not waste the effort she had put in before, so she asked Pan Yan to help organize the materials.

As the end of work approached, colleagues gradually left, but Pan Yan and Zuo Na were still sorting out the invoices between Shuangjian Group and Qian Ning, showing no intention of leaving. Pan Yan understood the whole case and proposed his idea to Zuo Na, saying that no matter what, they had their advantages, but they were stuck in not being able to schedule a meeting with the other party, so they couldn't come up with any solution. Then, Pan Yan also said that if there was really no way for this case, they could switch to another one, and he asked Zuo Na not to get stuck in one place. However, Zuo Na was unwilling to give up and interrupted Pan Yan from continuing to speak.

During the day, Pan Yan made plans with his girlfriend to have dinner with her parents, but as time went by, it got later and later. His girlfriend urged him to come quickly, which made Pan Yan very conflicted. Zuo Na noticed that Pan Yan was troubled and suggested he leave work early. Pan Yan was very happy to hear this and quickly made his way to meet his girlfriend, Dong Jiaorao, thinking it wouldn't be appropriate to show up empty-handed to meet her parents. He suggested buying a cake, but Dong Jiaorao refused, saying that she really likes Pan Yan and wanted to make sure her parents didn't worry, and told him to follow her instructions later.
