A Marriage of Convenience with the Ice-Cold Heiress

Updated December 24, 2025. Also known as: Winter Romance Wen Yan is an orthopedic surgeon. With her remarkable stamina and sharp mind, she was performing surgeries at a young age. Every day in the operating room, she swung her orthopedic mallet with a steady rhythm, like a construction crew chanting, “Eighty, eighty...” Just after finishing surgery one day, she got a call from her mother: her twin brother, who was supposed to marry into the Jin family, had suddenly run away from the wedding. Before fleeing, he left her a voice message: “Sis! Jin Zijin is an ice-cold demon! You take my place and marry her!!!” Wen Yan: “...” The Jin family was truly old money. Her family had only managed to forge ties with them thanks to a favor owed to their ancestors. And just like that, she had been “sold off.” On their wedding night, Jin Zijin said coolly, “I’m a traditional person. Since we’re married, we’ll do everything a married couple is supposed to do.” Wen Yan nodded obediently. “O-Okay.” But who was she? An orthopedic surgeon who swung a heavy mallet every day and did fingertip push-ups. There was no way she’d be outmatched. That night, the balance of power shifted. Three days later, when they visited Wen Yan’s family, her mother took her hand sympathetically. “Zijin is so cold-natured. You must have had a hard time.” Wen Yan stammered, “I-It wasn’t so bad.” She remembered how Jin Zijin had melted in her arms that night and thought... she wasn’t cold at all. In short, before she knew it, she’d fallen in love after marrying an icy heiress.
