After My Husband Used Me and Cast Me Aside [Gender-Bender]

[Gentle, resilient heroine x Tsundere hero who says one thing but means another]

Liu Mian is the village's barefoot doctor. One day, while gathering herbs in the mountains, she comes across a handsome man.

The man has been bitten by a venomous snake and is on the verge of death. Kindhearted Liu Mian takes him home, treats his wounds herself, and cares for him attentively.

Born and raised in Liujia Village, Liu Mian has never seen such a handsome man. She asks if he would marry her, promising that after they wed, he can manage all their money.

With a crowd of fierce-looking villagers behind her, the man grits his teeth and agrees.

Their married life is blissful. Liu Mian gives her husband all the money she earns practicing medicine, and he grows soft and pampered.

Then one day, Liu Mian returns from treating patients to find her husband gone, leaving behind only a divorce letter. It turns out that for the past six months, he has endured humiliation just to save enough money for the journey back to the city.

Liu Mian stops gathering herbs and practicing medicine, packs her things, and heads to the city to find her husband.

When Chi Guimeng sees Liu Mian again, his legs go weak.

Not because she's scared him, but because seeing her reminds him of all those nights of passion when he left her weak-kneed in bed.

Still, he turns away and pretends not to know her. How could a country girl ever aspire to the status of a prince's heir?

Fortunately, though the country girl is rough around the edges, she knows where she stands and doesn't pester him.

Yet somehow, watching her open a bustling pharmacy in the city, surrounded by friends and admirers, leaves Chi Guimeng feeling unsettled.

They had been properly married in a formal ceremony. What right does she have to smile at other men!
