Don't Obsess Over A Married Woman (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 147
In Sergei’s excited hands were a thick book and dozens of sheets of parchment.
When he asked if he could read them beforehand while transferring my inheritance to the carriage, I said yes—and for the past few days, he’s seemed utterly absorbed in the book….
“Sir Sergei, you’re running over like this? You must have discovered something extraordinary.”
“Yes, Duchess! That’s precisely why I came.”
Sergei, walking unusually fast for him, approached me and spread the parchment out on the table.
He placed the accompanying book down with great care, suggesting the parchment was a translation of the book.
After all, the entire library was written in the language of the Age of Magic, unreadable unless one had studied that era’s tongue.
“This is something Lord Joseph should hear as well… Where is he now?”
“Lord Joseph is overseeing the transfer of the inheritance.”
“Oh!”
The library stored deep inside the cave was extremely large, making transport via gondola rather limited.
It meant we’d need to make dozens of trips to move all the books and treasures.
Particularly, there was one major issue in this process: I was the only one who could see the cave entrance clearly.
Lord Joseph said it was probably because I was the rightful heir to the inheritance.
And there was one other person who held the status of heir.
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.”

At this point bad writing because Whatt?? I knew they were love interests but the to randomly have him be like her is crazy. No foreshadowing or anything?
So, this opportunity would be used to drive both out of the house.
