Blackening the Affectionate Male Lead (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 90
Chester headed straight for the drawing room.
“Will you be alright?”
“I don’t know.”
A smile kept tugging at his lips. He was simply happy at the thought of finally being able to see her without worry. Even if she slapped his cheek, the joy wouldn’t fade.
Unlike his earlier boldness, he now stood frozen before the drawing room door, unable to enter rashly. Though nothing would fly at him or cry out, he feared the coldness in her gaze.
‘Even if she’s come to dislike me, I’d have no right to complain.’
He’d taken matters into his own hands, so he’d simply have to endure whatever scolding came his way. Though unlikely to be charged with royal insult, her clear eyes would surely reproach him.
‘That might actually hurt a bit.’
Separate from that, Whitney would look beautiful no matter her expression. That thought troubled him, but as long as she didn’t hate him, it didn’t matter.
Chester steadied his breath and stepped into the drawing room.
At the sight of Whitney sipping tea and gazing straight ahead, he paused slightly. She was dressed formally, likely because she was meeting the king, and he stared at her transfixed. Her deep-green dress was delicately embroidered with shimmering silver thread.
A blue sapphire necklace adorned her neck, and her slender hands, clad in lace gloves, were visible. Sitting perfectly upright, Whitney set down her teacup. Beside her, Lady Rubernus sat in the same poised manner, also sipping tea.
“His Royal Highness Prince Chester has arrived.”
“We greet the second sun of the Kingdom of Lewen, His Royal Highness the Prince.”
At the servant’s announcement, both women rose from their seats to offer greetings. As two pairs of green eyes turned toward him, sweat began to bead on his forehead.
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.”
