I Became the Regretful Male Lead's Sister (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 22
Anais’s reaction wasn’t entirely incomprehensible.
According to the original story, her childhood had been quite harsh.
She’d had to evade the pursuit of the deceased former empress and endure the current empress’s cruelty.
Yet, the current empress might have been the only person Anais could trust.
“It doesn’t matter to me what Your Highness thinks of me. I’m stepping forward simply because what’s happening to you now is unjust.”
I continued, gazing into Anais’s clear eyes.
“So, if you ever need help again, please don’t hesitate to come find me. Or, if I’m inconvenient, you can go straight to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.”
“If you want something, just say it outright. Don’t go out of your way trying to win my favor.”
Seeing her so tense and guarded made my heart ache a little.
Her inability to accept kindness meant she had no room left in her heart for ease.
It felt as though I—and my entire family—had driven her to this point.
“I have no ulterior motive. I just want to help you.”
Perhaps it was overstepping.
But I couldn’t just leave her be.
If I wished for every character in the story I loved to find happiness, was that selfish of 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.”
