How To Choose A Knight (28 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 77
His face was the greatest craftsmanship, and his body was the greatest jewel. Even if the clothes he wore were not flashy, it hardly mattered. Rather, those eyes that drooped as if bored, unlike that splendid face, added a strange charm.
Whether they had a partner by their side or not. Whether they were old or young. Even gender was meaningless. Everyone in the party hall was busy stealing glances at Axel.
Naturally, there were people who gathered the courage to approach him.
“Oh, really? By any chance, do you reside in the capital? I happen to have business there. Meeting like this feels like fate—wouldn’t it be amazing if we met again there?”
“Good heavens, His Majesty himself! How impressive.”
“How did it feel crossing the border? Wasn’t it burdensome leading so many people?”
Axel only occasionally responded to those whose faces he recognized, his expression indifferent, yet the crowd buzzing around him showed no signs of thinning.
Jade quietly watched others approach him.
And while feeling jealousy, she grew to despise herself for doing nothing—or being unable to do anything—so she took a sip of wine and turned to head outside.
Of course, carrying two more new glasses. This wine was truly precious, so she had to drink it while she could.
The connected garden was modest. As expected of a castle once used as a fortress, the interior spaces were large and orderly, but it was clear that only functionality had been prioritized, with little effort spent on ornamentation.
Still, walking along the well-laid stone path eventually led to a simple fountain. Though it lacked the dramatic upward surge of water, the gentle trickling sound soothed the barren feeling in her heart.
Jade sat on the marble ledge and let out a sigh.
The party seemed to be reaching its peak. Even from this distance, the loud laughter of people made merry by drink rang out clearly.
The musicians, too, were growing more passionate, as if pouring their own personal interpretations into the performance as their emotions rose.

Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!

Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
