Everyone has a scale in their hearts to measure the weight of justice. However, whether this justice can be guarded is another matter. In "Article 20", Han Ming, played by Lei Jiayin, is such a middle-aged man who struggles between justice and reality.
Han Ming, an ordinary prosecutor, has been suspended for many years, and there is no hope of becoming a regular. His greatest wish is to become a regular employee of the court and obtain the stability and recognition he has always dreamed of. However, he is well aware that to achieve this goal, there will be a heavy price to pay.
As early as his college days, Han Ming was an unsung hero full of a sense of justice. He is well aware of the power of the law and the legal terms behind fights. However, when he saw that his rogue classmates were harassing Lu Lingling, he resolutely chose to help. His actions were like a ray of light, illuminating Lu Lingling's originally gloomy life.
However, the impulsiveness of his youth took a heavy toll on Han Ming, and his future became bleak as a result. Now, he is close to the age of confusion, and he has finally been transferred to work in the city, but he unexpectedly found that his immediate boss turned out to be his ex-girlfriend Lu Lingling. The man's self-esteem is intertwined with family conflicts, which throws Han Ming's life into chaos.
Lu Lingling's persistent belief in justice stems from Han Ming's righteous help. In the face of Wang Yongqiang's case, she firmly believes that as long as Han Ming is here, she will be able to return Wang Yongqiang's innocence. Because in her heart, Han Ming will always be the teenager full of a sense of justice.
However, life is always full of drama. Tian Jian, the leader of the procuratorate, actually pursued Lu Lingling, and even wanted to match this relationship through Han Ming. In the face of Tian Jian's pursuit, Lu Lingling has never been moved. It wasn't until Han Ming withdrew Old Man Liu's appeal with his own efforts and asked Wang Yongqiang to be acquitted that Lu Lingling finally understood her intentions.
Tian Jian's timidity, his indifference to the poor, and his suppression of Lu Lingling made Lu Lingling completely disappointed in him. In her view, what Tian Jian represents is not true justice, but hypocrisy corrupted by power and interests. On the contrary, Han Ming always adhered to the belief in justice in his heart, and no matter how difficult life was, he never gave up.
If Tian Jian wants to win Lu Lingling's heart, he should learn from Han Ming's pure spirit of justice. Instead of using the law as an excuse all day long, setting all kinds of rules and regulations to restrict people's actions and thoughts. Only those who truly understand and practice justice can win the favor and respect of Lu Lingling.
