I Became the Assassin Family's Foster Daughter (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 65
There was a reason Kaisley had assigned hide-and-seek as the task.
Because she was confident in herself.
Even though Morgan had swiftly vaulted over the wall at considerable speed, once Kaisley vanished from sight, she was nowhere to be found.
Thus, hours passed as they wandered about searching for Kaisley again.
“Shall we take a short break?”
Riche and Morgan entered a café within the city to catch their breath.
They took seats at a spacious four-person table, yet had no choice but to sit pressed tightly together.
It was because of the handcuffs on their wrists. Even if they each kept their hands in their pockets, the stretched chain between them looked suspicious; yet pulling their hands out would plainly reveal the handcuffs, inviting all sorts of misunderstandings.
Helplessly, Riche and Morgan slipped their clasped hands into Morgan’s pocket to hide the cuffs.
Though that unavoidable act made them appear very much like an affectionate couple.
“They’re the favorite couple to win.”
“They must really adore each other. What’ll they do if they face off in the finals?”
Hearing the murmurs of the onlookers, Riche’s cheeks flushed slightly. It wasn’t like that at all. Rumors linking them romantically always made her feel awkward.
Yet she couldn’t exactly deny something that wasn’t even addressed to her.
“I’m sorry, Morgan. For dragging you into my preliminary task.”
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.”
