49 Times Left, Master! (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 196
The master kept their head bowed, struggling not to lift it at all. Their neck, usually long and slender, had shrunk so much today it resembled a turtle’s.
So that was the hair ornament the Third Brother had been searching for. The one the master had supposedly lost and then found—it had actually been kept by the Third Brother all along. Hwa Ryeo felt as if midsummer had suddenly turned into deep winter.
And clearly, the master knew it too. The way they couldn’t even raise their face confirmed it.
“Brother. You must accept our greeting.”
Though his stomach kept sinking lower, Hwa Ryeo spoke as if nothing were wrong.
The Third Prince, half-dazed, stared blankly at the master’s head before belatedly offering a hurried bow.
“It’s been a while, I Guk Sa.”
He then glanced awkwardly around and muttered, pointing toward the darkest direction,
“I was just heading over there—yes, that way.”
The Third Prince tugged at the eunuchs standing beside him.
“Thirteenth, I Guk Sa—you two enjoy yourselves. I must go that way.”
As if he had urgent business elsewhere, the Third Prince quickly turned away.
“Please go ahead….”
The master bowed politely in response, and Hwa Ryeo clearly saw them exhale a sigh of relief.
At that expression, Hwa Ryeo’s stomach churned, and before he knew it, he spoke aloud.
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
Is it that 49 days period of mourning that must be held before their wedding? 😏
I would suggest her to marry him and go to that foreign country, if she weren’t a target of their emperor 😁
Ahaha, she keeps bothering him even when she is not near 😁
