11 Virtues A Hero's Civilian Friend Must Uphold (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 97
She had been a high school senior, but when she woke up, she was already in her final year of university.
It sounds just like the title of some popular novel from the past. Na Eun sat blankly on the sofa, lost in such thoughts.
If she had traveled to the future via a time machine, would it feel just like this?
Her last memory was from a day in March, when she had meticulously drawn up a study schedule to ace her first midterm exam as a high school senior—but now, somehow, she was already a college student.
Moreover, she was supposedly about to graduate. Jae Kyung told her not to worry; although she’d have to take a leave of absence next semester due to circumstances, she’d managed her credits and graduation requirements carefully all along.
The very first thing she wondered upon realizing she’d lost her memory was whether she’d done well on the college entrance exam.
Fortunately, she was told that thanks to her hard work, she’d been admitted to her dream university.
She’d always believed that achieving this alone would make her happier than anything else in the world—but as Jae Kyung slowly explained everything that had happened in the interim, Na Eun found herself overwhelmed not by joy, but by a sudden downpour of sorrow and despair.
She sat on the living room sofa, staring at the TV screen with sore eyes.
On screen, the evening news was reporting how those once hailed as heroes had, one by one, committed atrocities and sacrificed innocent lives.
Just listening made it hard to believe—her hands resting on her knees trembled uncontrollably.
“Are you still really confused?”
Jae Kyung set a warm cup of tea in front of her and sat beside her, gently taking her trembling hand.
Na Eun lowered her gaze and briefly screwed up her face in distress.
“Honestly… I still can’t believe it.”

After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
