49 Times Left, Master! (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 97
It was just then that I was about to let the matter slide reasonably enough.
“No, that won’t do.”
My disciple interjected in a gentle voice.
“My master nearly received a beating over this. How can we simply let it go?”
My disciple looked at me not only with a soft voice but also with tender eyes.
“So His Highness the 13th Prince won’t grant me even a shred of face.”
Princess Bumun muttered in a low, subdued tone.
The palace maid tightly clasped her hands together and couldn’t even lift her head.
“Do you really intend to punish this child just because she spoke a bit late? What exactly do you want to do?”
“Punishment must follow the established rules.”
When the 13th Prince smiled, Princess Bumun let out a hollow laugh.
“In Hwa Eum, do you punish people merely for delivering items slightly late? How terribly harsh.”
“But I nearly received a beating for no reason at all.”
When I cut in, Princess Bumun’s expression hardened, and she glared at me—this time without managing her expression at all.
“If Your Highness insists on punishing my maid, then I shall hold Yo I Guk Sa accountable for dropping my precious item.”
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.”
