“I have prepared a list of a few. You can choose what you like.”
“Thank you.”
Count Philip Morris’s eyes became strange. He seemed to doubt his ears at my words.
To dispel his doubts, I muttered something he would probably hear.
“Ah, I’m finally going to be free. It feels great.”
Then, I smiled brightly at Marlboro.
“Marlboro, you can rest easy now.”
“……Yes?”
“I’m saying that you must have suffered a lot. I sincerely wish you happiness. Live happily.”
“Th, thank you.”
Marlboro stumbled over his words, looking flustered.
It wasn’t unreasonable, hearing praise after enduring constant ridicule throughout my life, the 180degree change in attitude was too much.
Even to me, the reversal was too drastic.
‘But what can I do? Even if you become a king, won’t you hurt me?’
I only spoke my true feelings to myself and carefully picked up the gifted gown.
“I’ll go in now, so talk comfortably with the children. You all rest too.”
I won’t be doing anything like barging into the newlyweds’ room tonight.
[This is the time separator]Today’s garden was a beautiful painting.
Wearing a white lace parasol, enjoying the brightness of the garden, I felt sorry that I couldn’t capture this in a photograph.
It would be perfect with the title ‘A Noble Lady Strolling the Spring Garden.’
Thinking of myself as a noble lady.
Of course, I knew Ellen was pretty, but now that it was me, my face tickled, and I giggled alone.
At the same time, I faintly heard a soft laugh from behind.
When I turned around, Sir Mild’s expression blossomed into a happy smile.
“Sir Mild, something good happened?”
Our eyes met, and he quickly straightened his expression and posture.
“I apologize, my lady.”
“You smiled like that, and I’m curious. What is it?”
When asked again, he looked down, his face turning slightly red.
“If it’s a good thing, it’s a good thing. You seem to be in a good mood today, my lady.”
When I stared at him with wide eyes, Sir Mild’s face turned as red as a beet.
‘Ah, I see.’
An involuntary chuckle escaped, and I turned around, biting my lips.
“Maybe it’s the shadow knight. To be happy for my good mood…”
He would never have imagined, but Lord Mild was a person who was very faithful to the setting. A villain’s minion character who dies later trying to protect Ellen.
Thinking about that, I tightly gripped the handle of my parasol. I can’t kill kind Lord Mild with the wrong choice.
“Yes, I must change the future.”
For that, today’s tea party with Laila was important.
I must make a good impression on Laila and her friends enjoying the tea party in the rosefilled garden, to increase their favor.
“I heard it’s in the garden… where is it?”
I looked around the garden on tiptoes.
“…?”
But no matter how much I looked, I couldn’t see anything that looked like a tea party.
“My lady, what are you looking for?”
“I heard that Laila is having a tea party today, but I can’t see it…”
“…Eh? Is Miss having a tea party today?”
“It should be somewhere in the garden? I thought it would be somewhere around here since the roses are in full bloom, but it seems not.”
“Ah, that’s what the maids were quietly preparing.”
His words struck me as strange.
“Isn’t it a family event? Why doesn’t Lord Mild know?”
“Uh… that is…”
At my careless question, Lord Mild couldn’t continue his words. Seeing his face turn slightly red, it seemed he was embarrassed.
“Why can’t you answer?”
Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!
――
This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”
