Can an Enemy Become Salvation? (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 122
“It’s different from what you said last time!”
After swiftly dealing with the monster incident, Dreisen was having a private meeting with Suhel.
The reason for his unusually intense reaction was that he had only just realized—too late—that Ivenel’s decision to go to Aodin was entirely up to her.
Suhel, however, didn’t even blink an eye at Dreisen’s protest. And strictly speaking, he hadn’t actually told any lies.
“I clearly demanded compensation for allowing Aodin’s delegation to enter Caries. When did I ever say I’d hand over Lady Ivenel?”
“But still—”
“Now that you’ve set foot here, you’ll have to honor that promise. You might not have known when you entered, but leaving won’t be up to the Crown Prince’s wishes.”
It was Suhel’s unmistakable threat: if Dreisen tried to renege on his promise, he wouldn’t leave Caries alive.
‘I’ve been outmaneuvered.’
By the time Dreisen realized this, it was already too late. He should have been suspicious from the moment he agreed to this meeting so readily.
Yet, as Suhel had pointed out, it was far too dangerous for him to storm out right now. Dreisen wasn’t brave or bold enough to risk his own life.
‘It’s fine. I can easily persuade that woman with my own strength anyway.’
Confident that he could bring Ivenel back to Aodin, he had brought something precious with him from the start—and now placed it willingly on the table.
Suhel silently examined the documents.
Soon, spotting the imperial seal of the Aodin Emperor stamped at the end, his expression turned satisfied.

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.”
