For more than ten years, he worked day and night to achieve this goal.However, just before he could finally take the Imperial Medical Office's examination, he was forced to marry the ill son of the Nan'an Hou Mansion, Lu Wancheng, thus destroying his dreams and future.On the eve of their wedding, Lu Wancheng lay lazily on the bed and said, “Beauty, to be honest, I really don’t want to engage in domestic struggles. I just want to drift along, eat and wait to die. I want to be a Salted Fish.”First bitter and distant, Lin Qingyu soon enough realizes that Lu Wancheng may be more than just a frivolous sick man, and gradually, while he must face the difficulties being a male wife entails and try to understand who his husband really is, hate and indifference give way to new feelings…
