“Something else? …Um, Your Majesty. The sun hasn’t set yet.”
Hayden, who was walking with her matching her steps, laughed even more quietly at her uneasy voice.
“Do you not know that I prefer to do things in bright places?”
“Why are you doing that when I have so much work to do?”
“Because I like my body, Rue.”
“It’s not that you don’t finish it in one go…!”
Time disappears when you’re with him. When I come to my senses, half a day has passed in the blink of an eye, and day and night have reversed.
Rue tried to stop his steps somehow by hanging on his thick forearm, but he, on the contrary, effortlessly lifted her with one arm and walked straight ahead.
“Yaaa…!”
“Yes, I love you too.”
Hayden, who had already kidnapped her like this several times in broad daylight, laughed exuberantly.
Should I try to seduce him more? Rue, who was thinking about it, relaxed her body when she saw that laughing face. That’s enough. It’s good that she forgot about the days when she used to be angry, grinding her teeth.
‘Was I originally the kind of person who dates like this?’
Looking back, it wasn’t at all. There were a few guys who jealously looked at other men without any reason, but she didn’t interfere with them.
She was upright, and even though their relationship wasn’t that deep, claiming ownership like that felt rather absurd.
In the end, those guys crossed the line and were kicked out first. Perhaps by that time, they had lost interest in relationships altogether.
What is a deep relationship? Is it a deep relationship when you spend a long time together? She used to think so. How much has that guy seen me to say such things? I wondered that more than once, even though I wasn’t sure what they were talking about.
However, Hayden, who had a shorter and more intense relationship than them, expressed his anger briefly and sharply, and Rue understood him well. Even the moment when she was lifted by him and moved was good for her. She liked it because he liked it.
The deep understanding between them about the struggles to fill the void was so profound that they didn’t need to spend a long time together to feel the depth.
“Where are we going?”
Not to Glera Palace, not towards his bedroom either. He completely shifted Rue to his other arm and then embraced her with both arms. It wasn’t that he treated Rue like a fragile lady; he just really enjoyed physical contact.
“Well, I’m considering it right now. The place that suits you best at this moment might be…”
Before the answer was finished, the surroundings suddenly changed. Instead of warm air, a chilly wind enveloped Rue. She reflexively tightened her hold on Hayden’s neck, whom she was hugging.
“Is it cold?”
Rue couldn’t even answer. The buildings of the meticulously designed Imperial Palace disappeared, and in front of her appeared a glass bridge that extended towards a massive mirror-like gate. Rue instinctively looked down. Below, whether it was transparent glass or the power of magic, she saw the sprawling city of Shalea with the gleaming Shalea Imperial Palace and the flowing Mel River.
This place was Baifel, a magical gateway to anywhere and a path to Shalea.
“Rue.”
As soon as she heard that deep voice, Rue knew what he was going to say.
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
