49 Times Left, Master! (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 265
“Good heavens! Lady So Ga Ju, what on earth has happened?”
Wol Seom hadn’t gone inside despite the cold weather. When she saw me appear carrying the Third Prince on my back, she gasped and rushed over.
“I don’t know. He was buried among the tree branches.”
“Huh? How did that happen? Did a tree fall on him?”
“No. He was just buried among the branches.”
“How did that happen?”
“There are only two possibilities: either His Highness tied the branches together, tried to carry them on his back, and tumbled forward—or bandits knocked him unconscious and covered his body with branches so no one would find him.”
Wol Seom flung the door open wide. I laid him down on the bedding spread in the Third Prince’s room.
Wol Seom brought a clean cloth and wiped the blood from the Third Prince’s forehead as she asked,
“It must be the first one, right?”
“I don’t know.”
“But all our belongings are still here. Would bandits hurt His Highness this lightly and just leave?”
“The first option would be better—but the sword I gave His Highness is missing.”
Wol Seom’s face turned pale, and her pupils trembled. The danger level was entirely different between the Third Prince falling on his own and being attacked by bandits.
If the Third Prince had merely injured himself alone, it would just be an embarrassing incident for him—but if bandits were involved, they might come here wielding our sword.
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.”

That’s a blessing ML is smart and the situation is probably will be resolved quickly, otherwise I would’ve rage flip because of that never ending misunderstandings.
I hoped that after main story ending they finally will stop that habit of lying in every little thing, it’s a pity I expected too much 🫠
I can understand ML’s jealousy, but really, why not to let his wifey pay her karmic debt and then live happily ever after?
