Don't Pick That Flower (2 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 65
The book she dropped struck her foot and fell to the floor, but Irene couldn’t bring herself to care.
“It seems this is the first time you’ve seen it in the library.”
Because Abel stood right before her.
His face, smiling with lips drawn into a smooth, delicate curve, was beautiful enough to make any woman’s heart flutter—but it had absolutely no effect on Irene.
Instead, she felt a chill run down her spine, as if he were a poisonous mushroom, dazzling on the outside but hiding deadly venom beneath.
After all, hadn’t the previous incident with the fruit been a trap in disguise?
So she absolutely couldn’t let her guard down.
…but this man was seriously unsettling.
Just locking eyes with Abel sent a shiver through Irene as if she were touching a snake’s scaly skin, causing her to instinctively tuck her head in like a turtle.
Unconsciously stepping backward, her foot kicked the book, which bounced off a bookshelf and came to rest right before a pair of impeccably polished shoes, gleaming under the light.
“Hmm?”
Naturally, Abel’s gaze shifted to the book.
Irene, too, looked down at it.
The book lay wide open like butterfly wings.
Consequently, an even more explicit and embarrassing illustration than the one she’d glimpsed earlier was now laid bare for all to see.
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.”
