Contract Marriage with the Devil Duke (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 90
I saw a woman in my dream. She had flamboyant red hair like crushed roses and delicate features. Her eyes were strikingly similar to Dimidius’s.
Orentia instinctively realized this woman was Lilith, Dimidius’s mother—the very Queen of Mongma, the phantom being said to wander between dreams.
From the moment Orentia saw Lilith, her mind became overwhelmingly tangled. She worried about how Dimidius would react upon meeting her, yet she also had many questions for Lilith herself.
Dimidius remained silent for a long while upon suddenly seeing Lilith appear. He simply stood rooted in place, staring only at her.
At that moment, Orentia woke up. As she exhaled evenly and looked around, she realized she wasn’t in the Grand Duke’s castle or mansion—but in her lodgings in Obitoon.
Through the large window, she saw powerful waves surging in. Just a few hours earlier, a Mongma had appeared there, causing people to collapse.
Since I’m safely lying in bed at the lodging, it seems the Mongma restored everyone to normal and left the Bonus Empire.
Just then, the door opened, and Dimidius—whom I’d longed so desperately to see—appeared. He wasn’t wearing his mask and carried various items in his hands.
“Lady! Are you awake?”
Spotting Orentia blinking her eyes, Dimidius hurried anxiously to her bedside. Orentia smiled slightly and spoke to him.
“Are the others safe?”
The moment Orentia awoke and immediately worried about others, Dimidius let out a deep sigh.
“You endured two nightmares and lost more vital energy than anyone else. Yet you’re concerned about others first? Please, take care of your own health first.”
Unconsciously, Orentia had worried more about those who collapsed on the beach before herself, so Dimidius’s words brought her comfort. If Orentia, who possessed holy power, had lost this much strength, ordinary people might have died.
‘I’m this exhausted because I had to endure both my nightmare and His Highness’s.’
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.”
