“What would you like to command…?”
“I envy His Majesty.”
Noah’s face showed confusion at the sudden remark.
“Noah, someone like you is by my side.”
“Pardon?”
Ines blushes slightly, as if making a shy confession. As she bit her lip, the emperor subtly nodded in agreement. Noah’s breathing started to quicken.
“If it weren’t for Noah, could I have dreamt of such a thing? Truly, Noah, you are a perfect and ideal talent suitable for the new world.”
A perfect and ideal talent…
Ah, Noah’s heart skipped a beat.
Given the command to prepare the Empress’s residence within three days, he had devoted himself day and night to the task. He had planned to sleep without interruption until tomorrow morning as soon as he returned to his room.
Noah closed the door of the Empress’s residence office and changed his destination to the Imperial Library.
It was for the formal school to be established for the new commoners.
Not only the emperor but the empress seemed unaware. No, perhaps she was aware but pretended not to be?
With just one sentence, the prospective empress had accumulated about three years of his loyalty, or maybe at least five years.
Noah chuckled at his own simplicity and headed to the library.
He needed to gather the legal evidence required to establish a new school. As a perfect and ideal talent suitable for the new world.
Before Noah left, Carson approached Ines’s side as if flying, even before the door was completely closed. At the same time, his arm reached around her waist.
“You need to change your clothes.”
“My clothes?”
Ines checked her attire, wondering if there was something wrong with what she was wearing.
“Something easy to take off.”
At his teasing, Ines’s face turned undoubtedly red. It was to the extent that she doubted if this woman, who used to mock men in suits inside the headquarters, was the same person.
“Do you have to say that…”
“Do you want me not to?”
Ines pondered for a moment. If someone asked her whether she disliked him saying such things, she would not hesitate to nod her head.
“No.”
With her answer, Carson wet his lips and laughed. His hands had already begun to easily remove Ines’s clothes.
“What are you doing here? This is an office.”
“That’s because you don’t know well. This is where the empress used to spend time with her beautiful lover, mainly enjoying each other’s company with a glass of red wine. Of course, the lover changed every time.”
“Excuse me?”
“That’s something you don’t know.”
But her words were drowned in Carson’s mischievous antics. He had been unusually busy for the past three days.
When he found Ines, she was always deeply asleep. So, today, trying to stop him would be useless. Ines knew that well.
As uncomfortable clothes were taken off, her body naturally relaxed, and her mind became a bit more at ease. So Ines decided to let him do as he pleased. Was it something she wanted because of his divine power?
With his warm hands caressing her slightly cold body, Ines’s neck unconsciously leaned against the back of the sofa.
Carson still matched Ines’s desires perfectly. Only the point of leading her into the world of pleasure had changed a little from before.
With her long fingers intertwined in his large hair, the pleasant sensation of the perfect curls made Ines’s possessiveness inside her squirm. She wished that her divinity belonged entirely to her.
“Sometimes, you seem like someone who has lived in this world.”
Huh, the hand that was messing up his hair stopped for a moment. Sensing her reaction sensitively, Carson raised his head slightly and observed her complexion.
‘Why?’ The man’s questioning gaze, expressed through his eyes, overlapped with the gaze she had seen in the forest of time she had passed through. Ines slightly tilted her head and managed to smile.
“Why… would you say that?”
Carson plunged into Ines’s embrace again, murmuring softly.
“Just feels that way. Otherwise, how else could I explain your miraculous presence?”
“…”
“Even if you were a maid for a while, how could someone like you, who has lived as a noble all your life, think of such a thing? A commoner school…”
Spitting out the words made sense to him, but when you heard it for the first time, it could be nothing but bewildering. The mention of a formal school for commoners. Her actions always surprised him like that.
“Think about it. It’s true. You always surprise me. You always draw something out of me. It feels like a real miracle.”
Carson felt Ines’s heart fluttering, so he lifted his head.
“Crying already?”
Ines raised her arm to cover her eyes. Of course, even if she covered her eyes, she couldn’t hide the tears streaming down her cheeks.
She didn’t understand why she felt so melancholic. The uncomfortable feeling of wearing someone else’s clothes and the awkward feeling of sitting in someone else’s place—those were all because of this.
I’m experiencing a miracle right 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.”
