I Became the Assassin Family's Foster Daughter (Completed Main Story) - Side Story 20
Deon shook his head slightly.
“Family is family, no matter what form it takes. And both you and Dad are the kind of people who always do your best for your family. So I’m sure you’ll be a wonderful family for Alpheus.”
“…….”
“If it still feels hard somehow, just talk to me or Dad about it.”
Riche took Deon’s hand.
Their warm body heat felt like a steadfast support for each other.
“Let’s put our heads together and find a way. After all, we’re family too, right?”
At Riche’s words, Deon smiled, lifting the corners of his mouth.
His face now looked relieved, unlike just moments before.
“You’ve grown up so much, puppy.”
“Don’t call me puppy.”
Riche proudly declared that she was already the loving mother of two adorable children, far too grown-up to be called “puppy” anymore.
Seeing his younger sister so happy, Deon chuckled softly.
“Wow!”
Laila’s exclamation rang out from the playground where she’d been playing with Alpheus.

Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.

Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!

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.”
