The 1980s: She Became the Disabled Tycoon’s Substitute Bride, but She’s a Reclusive Miracle Doctor

[1980s + Substitute Bride + Master of Traditional Chinese Medicine + Marriage First, Love Later + Chinese Aesthetics]

In the early 1990s, Lu Yichen, the notorious “Living King of Hell” of the capital's most powerful Lu family, was left disabled. He specifically demanded that a daughter of the Shen family marry him.

His stepmother couldn't bear to send her own daughter into the lion's den, so she brought back Shen Qingli, the “discarded daughter” who had been raised in the countryside for over a decade, to take her place.

Everyone in the compound was waiting for a joke: one was a disabled black-market trader who had made his fortune through violence, the other a country girl who had never seen the world. Surely their life together would be utter chaos!

But then...

Just as everyone waited for Shen Qingli to be thrown out, they realized things weren't going as expected.

The wealthy elite who fawned over foreign things were suddenly spending lavishly on a “health-preserving recipe” she had casually written down!

The ladies who worshipped Western fashion were willing to trample her doorstep just to get a Su-embroidered qipao from her!

Even Lu Yichen, rumored to be sinister, cold-blooded, and volatile, actually stood up again.

Not only did he avoid going mad, he became the most fiercely protective man in the whole capital. “Qingli, you can only look at me. I'll give you my life.”

As everyone watched Shen Qingli effortlessly subdue a knife-wielding thug with a silver needle, then elegantly straighten her sleeve, they could only think: “President Lu, you call this helpless and fragile?”
