The Sickly Original Wife of a Powerful Man in the 1970s

[Transmigrate into a Book + Military Marriage + Frail Female Lead + Rugged Hero + Devoted Husband + Golden Finger]

Gan Lu is a traditional Chinese medicine practitioner. After nearly ten years on the job, she finally gets promoted to associate chief physician, only to suddenly drop dead. When she opens her eyes, she’s in the 1970s, and she’s a doomed young woman.

She has congenital heart disease and must always keep her medication close. She gets winded after just a few steps, and spends most days lying in bed.

At eighteen, she marries the husband her father painstakingly chose for her.

Later, Gan Lu takes her younger sister’s place in the countryside, and her husband transfers to the mountainous region to join her. That’s where Gan Lu dies.

Afterward, her husband cuts his way through every obstacle, dominates both business and politics, and becomes a famous figure in Huaguo.

In short, she’s a minor character who gets fewer than a hundred words in the entire book.

After surviving the day she was originally supposed to die, Gan Lu discovers a secret.

The more people she saves, the faster her heart condition improves and the stronger her body becomes.

If that’s how it works, then Gan Lu rolls up her sleeves and gets to work.

Before long, she becomes one of the finest practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine in Huaguo. She heals tens of thousands of people, earns praise as Hua Tuo reborn, and reaches the pinnacle of success.

At first, she thinks she and Gu Siheng are simply using each other.

What kind of decent husband goes half a year without seeing his wife, then finally comes home only to act all brooding and barely say a word?

And when you get him to talk, all he says is, “Is that okay?” and “Can I?”...

She has no idea that if she’s not afraid of becoming a widow, he’ll do whatever she wants.

That day, he drives her mad. Gan Lu angrily says she wants a divorce, but he tells her military marriages can’t be dissolved. So she says she’ll find someone else. Gu Siheng doesn’t say a word. He just lowers his head and pins her down...
