The Marquis’s Household

A country girl who only came to the capital because her father passed the imperial examinations: her aunt by marriage disliked her, her cousins didn't love her, yet her paternal aunt took a special liking to her. The marquis's mansion looked like a place of wealth and splendor, but it was really a massive death trap. How could a modern genius physician who had transmigrated here ever bow to fate? He was the mighty commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, powerful and high-ranking, a ruthless killer, and as cold as the wind. Yet for some reason, he was always looking out for her. He stopped her from marrying into the marquis's household, beat up its eldest grandson, and secretly helped her business, yet he didn't dare get involved with her. She couldn't figure him out or get a read on him. When she was exhausted in both body and mind, she discovered that he had already latched onto her!
