Enjoying First-class Lawyer very much. I'm about 50 chapters in, Yan Suizhi's snark and Gu Yan's response made me laugh a lot.

I want y’all to read First-class Lawyer right now

I started reading First-Class Lawyer by the goddess Mu Su Li. It seems like an exceptional story! It's a sci-fi filled with mystery. The CP dynamic is rivals to lovers and they're teacher-student. They also look hot!

Book of the Week: First-Class Lawyer

Author: Mu Su Li (木苏里)

Genre: futuristic setting, legal system, danmei

Rating: M (mostly for dark themes around the cases—nothing too graphic—but also fade-to-black sex)

My Synopsis: Do you like court dramas and murder mysteries? Well, you're in luck because so does our main character, Yan Suizhi! After waking up with a whole new face and identity after the bombing that supposedly killed him, Yan Suizhi decides to infiltrate the law firm of his former student, Gu Yan—who he is convinced hates him—in order to investigate the circumstances behind his "death." Along the way, Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan will uncover a conspiracy affecting even more than they thought they knew.

My Actual Review: Let's start here: Yan Suizhi's acting abilities are directly on par with Wei Wuxian's when he was pretending to be Mo Xuanyu. Man was a whole renowned lawyer, decides to pretend to be an untrained intern as his secret identity, and just... continues to act as a strong, highly experienced lawyer. The jokes write themselves. Anyways, the investigations for each case were interesting, as were the court cases, themselves, though I wish they got to play out for longer. I also enjoyed the side characters and how their backstories eventually weaved into the greater plot. Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan definitely have my heart as a couple, but Gu Yan was definitely not being paid enough to deal with the chaos that is Yan Suizhi, not when he was a student or his mentor 😭 Content warning for the court cases, which do involve themes such as kidnapping, child abuse, murders, etc. described to varying degrees, and an overdosing/(assumed) attempted suicide scene, also not described too graphically. However, nothing is described too graphically for those that are squeamish (like me).

A quick presentation on why you should read First-Class Lawyer by Mu Su Li !

[starlightkun]

oh this professor gave us no instructions whatsoever for this assignment. we're supposed to draft a demand letter and pretty much all these directions r is two sentences explaining generally what a demand letter is, a few (bad) examples, and then she pretty much just tells us to make us our own facts and details of a torts case from scratch and draft an entire demand letter from that. this is a 2000 level class in a certificate program for people who arent already in the legal field. if i were my classmates i'd be terrified 😭 like i see demand letters everyday and i'm still like ?????? what do you want from me?? a creative writing exercise and a legal writing exercise in one how fun thank u soooooooo much

This is my first time ever living in a multi-story home. (I've lived in multi-story buildings before, but I only ever lived on one floor of those buildings at a time.) So I'm really not sure what to do about the fact that there's only one thermostat but the first and second floors have pretty different temperatures.

I absolutely loved First Class Lwayer by Mu Su Li. Yan Suizhi and Gu Yan are just perfection personified ... just

*chef's kiss*

[saehyn]

having a blast reading first class lawyer now that my thesis is done. took a few creative liberties too.

[bellaroles]

After I read 3 series of Mu Su Li's, I think "Actions speak louder than words" really describe each of the main romantic relationships very much lol.

[superfluouskeys]

conceptually weird that i ended up registering for almost exclusively business law classes next term but here we are!!!

Half an hour later, Yan Suizhi found himself sitting behind the intern’s desk that Fizz had found someone to set up. He was face-to-face with Gu Yan, who was seated behind his own larger lawyer’s desk.

Yan Suizhi took a silent sip of his coffee. “......”

Gu Yan took a sip of his coffee as well. “......”

The atmosphere was truly somber and for a moment, it was hard to tell who was visiting whose grave, and whose cup of coffee seemed like it was filled with cat shit.

This is going to be so funny!

The fact that I easily moved on from First-Class Lawyer to Little Mushroom is wondrous to me.

Who knew pressing deadlines made my reading progress faster than the norms.

(Who am I kidding? I finished ORV under 3 days, from Friday to Sunday while suffering from a constant migraine with exams on Monday. It's a great motivator to read books but a great hindrance to progressive work and ruins your chances of a passing grade)

Ah, life of a bookworm.

From First Class Lawyer by Musuli! Her writing is so good and these two are so soft! My MSL brain rot is getting worse and worse...
