I Decided to Let You Go (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 47
The helpless passage of time made the month of leisure fly by. The day had finally arrived, marking the Aschardt Duke’s first official banquet.
The Duke and Duchess of Aschardt had stayed at their countryside estate since half a month prior, meticulously inspecting every detail of the banquet preparations. They personally checked everything—from the ballroom, the centerpiece of the event, to the guest rooms, tableware, and even the flowers meant for this joyous occasion.
Moreover, additional temporary staff had to be hired to properly attend to the guests.
Thus came the day of the banquet.
Natasha rose earlier than usual and began preparing herself with the servants’ assistance.
Since most of those helping her with her adornment were strangers, Kayena took the lead, giving detailed instructions to guide the inexperienced staff.
Meliana and Vanessa were scheduled to attend the banquet today alongside their families. Though invitations had also been sent to Kayena and her family, they had repeatedly declined, politely stating they appreciated the gesture but would not attend.
Left alone, Kayena decided to take on the work of three people herself, diligently assisting Natasha with unflagging energy and sincerity.
Having finished her outward adornments, Natasha gazed at her reflection in the mirror.
The blue sapphire earrings and lavish diamond necklace sparkled brilliantly under the mirror’s light, and the pale sky-colored mermaid gown, which hugged her figure perfectly, complemented Natasha’s unique aura beautifully.
“I picked well, didn’t I?”
Kayena, catching Natasha’s eyes through the mirror, winked with one eye.
“Yes, I truly love it.”
“Hehe, of course! My taste is the best—after all, I’ve known you since you were little, Lady Tisha!”
Kayena had carefully reviewed the catalog from a renowned salon, then specially commissioned modifications to ensure the outfit suited Natasha even better. Seeing Natasha so pleased with the result, Kayena’s shoulders lifted in evident joy.
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.”
