A Crazy Guy Pretends to Be Weak to Make Me Keep Him? Lie Down. I’ll Inspect the Goods First

Transmigrating into the body of a brilliant doctor skilled in poisons, Fu Shanyue hasn't even had a chance to show what she can do before she receives a death warrant: in ten days, she'll be forced to join the tyrant, who has just died in battle, in the grave.

She gives a scornful laugh, waves a hand, and disables her scumbag father with a single needle. Then she heads to a brothel, picks out a handsome young man with a spotless reputation, pinches his chin, and asks on the spot:

“Give yourself to me, and I'll buy your freedom and cure your poison. How about it?”

The man lowers his long, sharp eyes. Once he learns who she is, he comes up with a plan, curls his lips, and lies back.

“Sounds good. But you have to keep your word, miss.”

The next morning, Fu Shanyue takes him home, satisfied.

From then on, she goes out by day to treat the sick, save lives, and earn a living, while he stays home to wash clothes and cook, as delicate as a willow in the wind.

At night, once the lamps are out, she beckons, and he leans close to her ear, murmuring hoarsely, “Wife, I've learned a new dish. Want to try it?”

Until one night, she sees the man who once covered his eyes at the sight of a chicken being killed, expressionlessly squeezing someone's throat.

He leisurely wipes the blood from his fingertips. When he turns to see her, his expression is sinister, but his voice is frighteningly gentle:

“My sweet wife, those rats stole your medicine, so I buried them for you. Wasn't your husband clever?”

When Fu Shanyue discovers his deception, she runs away with his child.

The tyrant chases after her in tears: “Wife, I'm sorry. Don't leave me.”

Unable to win her back, the tyrant goes on a killing spree at court. The officials tremble and beg her to keep the mad dog of a tyrant on a tight leash.
