The Substitute Bride Is a Miracle Doctor: Mr. Fu Begs for Cuddles Every Day

At eighteen, Su Xi is forced into a proxy marriage and becomes the “bride brought in to bring good fortune” to Fu Jinci, who is rumored to be in a vegetative state. Everyone laughs at the country bumpkin, convinced she’s doomed to a loveless marriage.

No one knows that her silver needles can decide life and death, or that three reclusive master experts have her back.

On their wedding night, she takes his pulse. Her expression turns grave. “This wasn’t an accident. He was poisoned.”

She thinks he’s a sleeping pawn, unaware that he has long since awakened and been watching coldly from the dark as she plays the pig to eat the tiger and makes plans in secret.

Until he opens his eyes and pins her against the wall, his voice low and husky. “Su Xi, I can’t keep pretending anymore.”

He knew all along that she had countless secret identities, yet willingly played along with her in a drama rife with hidden currents.

The proxy marriage was a scheme, the auspicious wedding was a pretense, but their mutual salvation was the fate that had been written for them all along.

“This time, let me save you.”

“My greatest blessing wasn’t waking up. It was you coming into my life.”

This is a love story that began with a conspiracy and ended with each of them becoming the other’s only light.
