She Was Dashing and Charming, and Left Situ Chentang Drunk

[Devoted love + marriage first, love later + secret crush + older male lead]

A spirited, independent, clear-headed heroine × a composed, reserved older male lead with immense power

Ruan Tang was born into a family that had made its fortune in business. She seemed to have wanted for nothing as she grew up, but she lacked her parents' love, and that forced her to become independent at an early age. Then she met her mentor, Elder Wen, a renowned physician who had spent his life studying medicine and healing the sick.

After Ruan Tang became his apprentice, her life gained a rhythm. She gradually fell in love with medicine and proved to have an exceptional talent for making it.

Situ Heng was a man with immense power who had long since mastered the art of political intrigue.

From the first time he saw Ruan Tang as a boy, he had kept the soft, adorable little girl, nicknamed Tangtang, in his heart, watching over her from behind the scenes as he waited for her to grow up.

He secretly changed her university application and helped submit her enlistment application. He even watched, where she couldn't see him, as she smiled at other men. He had thought he would spend his whole life behind the scenes, watching her marry, have children, and live a happy life.

But then, one day, everything took an unexpected turn.

After marriage

On the big bed late at night, the man gazed at her sleeping face, his eyes full of affection.

Though he should have been swamped with work, he often followed close behind his wife like an attendant, claiming that a husband should follow wherever his wife led. He had finally won her over, so how could he let anyone else set their sights on her?

When he saw that she still had plenty of suitors after they married, and that people kept gravitating toward her, he decided to change tactics. He threw their agreement to wait before having children out the window, scheming that once they had a child, she wouldn't be able to run around anymore...
