Eventually, the Female Lead Ran Away (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 40
The soft rustle of curtains opening roused Deborah from sleep.
Hovering between dream and reality, Deborah heard Shelley ask gently,
“Are you awake?”
“Yes. Good morning, Shelley.”
Deborah sat up and replied in a voice still thick with sleep, prompting Shelley to crinkle the corners of her eyes and say,
“Today’s morning sunlight is unusually brilliant.”
Listening to Shelley’s voice—clear and sweet like a songbird’s—Deborah stared blankly into the air. Why couldn’t she shake off this drowsiness?
‘At the Heather household and even at Lady Saint’s, I always rose at the crack of dawn.’
Yet even though she’d awakened at such a leisurely hour, she still couldn’t fully clear her head. She must not have slept properly.
‘Oh, come to think of it—what was that dream I just had?’
Deborah idly tried to recall the dream she’d just experienced. The image of a boy’s back came to mind effortlessly.
‘Ah, right. I dreamed of the first time I met that child.’
It wasn’t common at all to dream of past events, yet this was already the second time lately. Deborah couldn’t understand why she kept having such dreams—but they weren’t unpleasant.
‘I miss it.’
Though she truly missed those days, if someone offered to reunite her with that boy from the past, Deborah would likely refuse. What good would it do to meet him again as the struggling person she once was? He was surely faring much better now.
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.”
