[One couple, both each other's first and only + Marriage first, love later + Mind-reading + Physician secret identity + Sweet, satisfying romance]
When her elder sister feigned illness to avoid the marriage, the concubine-born Jiang Zhiwei was drugged and shoved into a bridal sedan, sent to marry a sickly young nobleman who wasn't expected to survive the winter, in the hope that she could bring him good luck.
Everyone pitied her.
No one knew she had fought for this marriage herself.
She had planned to be a dutiful widow and use her dowry to open a medical clinic.
But from their wedding night on, she could hear the young nobleman's thoughts:
"Another spy."
"Why are her hands so cold... Never mind. What's it to me?"
"Why does she look so beautiful when she smiles?"
Later, her stepmother, who had tried to poison her, fell from power. Her elder sister, who had broken off her engagement, wept. Everyone said the young nobleman's wife was lucky, and that she'd managed to nurse her sickly husband back to health.
Only Jiang Zhiwei knew that every sharp remark he made aloud was matched by a thought of her in his heart.
