He Who Covets the Abandoned Bride (10 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 62
It was the moment Adrian, having heard the reply, fully turned around to head toward his office.
Adrian, who hadn’t missed what had briefly caught his peripheral vision, froze.
Laila, who had hastily hidden behind a pillar, shrank her body tighter, worried that even a corner of her clothing might peek out from beside the pillar.
She couldn’t make sense of Adrian’s recent words—they sounded so unreal she didn’t know how to interpret them.
‘Could Adrian really… be fond of me?’
Would he actually like her?
The thought made her mouth go completely dry.
After confirming Adrian had started walking toward his office, Laila herself began climbing the stairs.
And at that exact moment, she inadvertently glanced in Adrian’s direction—and their eyes met.
Ah.
Laila let out a tiny gasp in her mind.
It was definitely no illusion.
Though he stood far away, he was staring directly at Laila, who was cloaked in deep shadow.
Had he been watching her like that the whole time?
Laila forgot entirely that she shouldn’t reveal herself, standing frozen in place—because Adrian’s gaze refused to let her go.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.

Do you dare?
Su Heng assists a divine lord in his cultivation, aiming to make him experience all the sufferings of love, so that he can attain the Great Dao.
Only after being chased down from the heavens by the divine lord, confined and completely possessed by him, does she realize how successful she has been.
