Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife Novel

Xie Wanying's 1996 declaration to become a doctor drew mockery—people sneered that a truck driver's daughter could never achieve such goals. When she announced her ambition to become a female thoracic surgeon, even medical professionals scoffed, reminding her no woman had ever led thoracic surgery in the country. Undeterred, Xie Wanying scored the highest provincial marks and entered the nation's premier surgical program. As an intern at a top capital hospital, surgery department heads competed for her talent. She made history by performing the world's first minimally invasive heart valve repair, pioneering achievement for women in surgery. Her success attracted attention: an overseas returnee senior changed his profile picture to include her, a wealthy young man brought daily flowers and diamond rings, and admirers crowded her family home. Meanwhile, when Mr. Xiao married, society assumed his wife must be a scheming woman. He revealed the painful truth: his deaf wife is overshadowed by him, allowing people to insult her openly and plot against her to her face.
