I, Shen Qinghuan, dream of lying flat, but I transmigrate into the Republic of China era as a mob boss's crybaby daughter. On the day of my arranged marriage, my icy doctor husband, Gu Yanli, touches my hand, and suddenly the whole Gu family hears my inner monologue: [[His hand is so cold!

Meanwhile, my icy husband solemnly records my “symptoms” while making every excuse to get close to me. Pinning me against the wall is for checking my heart rate, feeding me is to observe my swallowing, and in the end he even brings out a “Marital Health Cohabitation Agreement” that requires us to sleep in separate rooms but preserves his “right to make nighttime rounds”!
Then the Gu family's sworn enemy comes knocking. I panic and frantically imagine, [[It's over, it's over! In the original story, the entire Gu family is wiped out today!]] But Gu Yanli pulls me behind him and calmly adjusts his gold-rimmed glasses. “Don't be afraid. That weapons cache you mentioned in your sleep last week, I...
I feel that the male protagonist's family is a bit disgusting. They went out of their way to get close to the female protagonist for her voice. What would happen if the female protagonist knew the true resemblance? Would she really still like the male protagonist? Well, I feel like there is no sincerity and it is just close to her own interests.
