"Miss, we've found the person you're looking for.""Lucas Lu. Twenty-six years old. Married into the Li family three years ago. Sickly, unremarkable, completely useless.""I just don't understand—how could someone like him be worth your attention?"
Inside a silver Bentley, a female driver in a tailored suit was reporting to a stunning woman of extraordinary beauty.
"Useless?"The stunning woman looked at the photo in her hand and smiled faintly."Aren't you underestimating him a little? As far as I know, ever since Lucas joined the Li family, in just three years, they've gone from the brink of bankruptcy to one of the top clans in Jiangling. Don't you find that odd?"
"Could it be... Lucas was behind it all?" The female driver quickly picked up on the implication.
"Exactly."The stunning woman nodded, smiling."Everything the Li family has achieved was orchestrated by Lucas behind the scenes. A man capable of turning a small family into a prestigious clan—do you still think he's worthless?"
"Even so, is he really worth you stepping in personally?" The driver still had doubts. Her lady was a high-born heiress, someone who stood far above the masses. Why go to such lengths for a nobody?
"If that were all, I wouldn't bother."She lowered her gaze, her tone softened."What truly moved me... was something else."
"Three years ago, Lily Li—Lucas's wife—was terminally ill, with only days left to live. Lucas shattered his own cultivation and risked his life to take on all her afflictions."
"That night, Lily miraculously survived."
"But the Supreme Divine Doctor… became a cripple."
The stunning woman narrowed her eyes slightly, admiration flickering on her face.
There was something she didn't say aloud—For the three years that followed, Lucas bore Lily's suffering in her place, enduring the pain of ten thousand venomous ants eating away at him every single night.Every day, he lived a life worse than death.
What kind of devotion was that?What kind of reckless selflessness?
"What?! Lucas Lu is the Supreme Divine Doctor?"
