I Became the First Love of the Impenetrable Male Lead (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 97
Muttering the word “marriage” under his breath, Ian soon looked down at me with bewildered eyes.
“Rose, I don’t quite understand what you’re saying. Are you saying I have no intention of marrying you?”
“…No?”
“No, that’s not it.”
At his unhesitating response, my lips parted weakly. Perhaps I had put too much force into it, as my jaw felt numb.
“But why didn’t you say anything to me about it?”
“Well…”
Ian’s lips, which had been moving slightly, closed shut. He touched his mouth as if pondering what to say. Unable to bear the fleeting silence, I spoke first.
“Until I came to the crown prince’s investiture, I hadn’t even thought about it. I never imagined I could become the crown princess.”
“…”
“Even when His Majesty the Emperor mentioned the position of crown princess to me, it didn’t feel real… But you became the crown prince, and I was willing to bear any burden to stand by your side.”
The gaze I had kept lowered wavered. I wanted to see what expression he was making, yet I was afraid to face him. Clenching my hands, I tightly shut my eyes.
“Everyone casually brought up talk of the crown princess or marriage, but I realized you hadn’t said a word to me about it… And when even Nathan told me it was pointless chatter and not to mind it, I suddenly felt scared.”
“Rose.”
“Maybe you haven’t even dreamed of a future with me…”

After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
