I Held the Leash of a Blind Beast (1 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 65
“The memory of having loved Illeon. That alone is enough for me.”
At Elicia’s words, Mariela hesitated for a moment, as if about to say something but holding back. Seeing her mother like that, Elicia gave a calm, gentle smile.
“I’m really all right, Mother.”
Eventually, Mariela let out a short sigh and stroked her daughter’s hair.
“Rest now.”
“Yes.”
After Mariela left the room, Elicia changed into comfortable clothes.
She lay down on the bed but couldn’t fall asleep.
“Sigh.”
Tossing and turning restlessly, Elicia finally sat up.
Her hand, fumbling inside her chest, caught on a thin chain necklace that chimed softly.
It was the compass Illeon had given her.
“From now on, we’ll always be together, no matter where we go.”
Though it was twilight, Illeon’s face as he placed it around her neck had shone like a sunlit pebble wet with water.
“Wherever you go is the path I must follow. So you keep it.”
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.”
