The Code to Her Heart

[A sharp-tongued, clear-eyed, independent, and bold female lawyer × a reserved, devoted, tongue-tied, and timid neurosurgeon]

Marriage before love from the heroine's perspective; a secret crush coming true from the hero's!

At their first blind date, Xu Xi was thoroughly uncomfortable.

The other person just sat there in silence from the start.

Then, when he finally spoke, every word was so mortifying she wanted to die!

“I remember you ran the final leg of the relay at our high school's sports meet once, and knocked a girl from the class next door flying.”

Xu Xi's professional smile froze on her face.

It was bad enough that her blind date turned out to be a high school classmate. He also brought up her embarrassing past and made her want to disappear on the spot.

Right! This guy wasn't here for a date. He was just looking for trouble!

But after they got married, Xu Xi was completely won over, inside and out.

One day, she happened to find a confession letter three full pages long in a drawer.

Fang Yu's ten-year-long secret crush had finally seen the light of day.

Xu Xi's eyes reddened, and she choked out to Fang Yu, “Dr. Fang, you went way too far with that dating profile.”

“You'd been plotting this for ages!”

“And you're such a coward. Are you stupid or what?”

Fang Yu gently wiped away her tears, the corners of his lips lifting in a faint smile.

“I did plan this for a long time. Thank you, Lawyer Xu, for making my wish come true.”

When adults fall in love, sometimes emotion takes the lead for a moment, and reason never wins again!
