Duke, This Will Sting for a Moment (30 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 40
“Me accompany Your Highness on your honeymoon?”
The Lord of the Magic Tower tilted his head slightly, seemingly surprised by the unexpected request.
“Yes. I’m sorry to keep troubling you, but could you please come along?”
“Well, that’s not exactly difficult—”
Before Ricarion could even finish his sentence, Frost hastily cut in.
“If you need a mage, I’ve already sent plenty to Colina Rosa, Yuriella. If needed, I can summon non-Tower-affiliated mages there as well—any number you desire.”
Yuriella shook her head and whispered softly,
“No. I need Lord of the Magic Tower’s abilities. I don’t need any other mages.”
Her pointed insistence on needing only the Lord of the Magic Tower made Frost’s brow furrow instantly, and he glared at Ricarion.
Though Yuriella’s body and soul had been rejoined, Airy had warned that her condition wasn’t yet stable and required close observation—which was why he’d kept the Lord of the Magic Tower nearby—but accompanying them all the way to their honeymoon destination?
Ever since the Lord of the Magic Tower had practically moved in as a permanent guest, Frost had grown increasingly sensitive, to the point where he’d habitually stretch his senses wide awake until he fell asleep, constantly checking where that man was and what he was doing.
Whenever he confirmed the Lord of the Magic Tower was lingering near Yuriella, his frustration would flare so intensely that he couldn’t focus on work.
And now, having to endure that leech’s presence even on his honeymoon was utterly unbearable.
“The Lord of the Magic Tower isn’t some magical lamp that grants any wish, Your Highness. I’ve already prepared a private villa for you in Colina Rosa where you can stay comfortably. I’ve also assigned staff to attend to you. You won’t need the Lord of the Magic Tower’s help for anything—and even if you did, I could do it better myself, whatever it may be.”
Yuriella shook her head again.
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.”
