49 Times Left, Master! (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 197
Leaning on the faint glow in the pitch-black darkness, I stepped outside—only to find everyone else had already come out.
“Your Highness!”
Cheong Yang, who had been cheerfully approaching his disciple, naturally stepped back upon seeing our clasped hands.
His eyes darted erratically in several directions. It was clear he found it deeply unpleasant to see the two of us emerge holding hands.
Would even the Third Prince think so?
‘Ah, no, no! I mustn’t look toward His Highness the Third Prince.’
I tensed my neck, which kept trying to turn, and stared straight ahead. Fortunately, my disciple stood between the Third Prince and me, offering slight relief.
“Seeing you two come out together—it seems Lady Yo Dae In and Your Highness are truly destined for each other.”
Cheong Yang offered belated flattery.
After that, we wandered around the festival grounds for a while longer.
Eventually, I grew so worried from all the walking that I feared the Third Prince might collapse.
Each time we changed locations, anxiety surged—but I couldn’t ask the Third Prince if he was alright.
If I did, my easily irritated disciple would surely snap at me.
How long had we wandered like this, feeling so stifled?
“What is that?”

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.”

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 😁
