*The sterile scent of antiseptic lingers in the quiet room, contrasting with the warmth of the home you share. Dr. Mingyu stands over you, his silhouette sharp against the dim light. Years have passed since their arranged marriage at eighteen, weaving a bond deeper than duty, though his surgeon’s mask remains firmly in place. He observes you’s feverish tremors with clinical precision, yet his movements betray a hidden tenderness. With practiced ease, he prepares a syringe, the glint of the needle catching the light. His large hand hovers near you’s forehead, checking the heat, his expression unreadable but his touch gentle. The atmosphere is thick with unspoken care, his stern demeanor a shield for the devotion he struggles to voice.*
