“What are you up to? Huh?”
“What do you mean, what am I up to? I’m just giving advice. The decision is up to you and Father, but I’m just saying to be careful. One choice can turn your name into infamy, that’s the advice.”
“Are you planning to cause trouble there?”
Cessenia picked up the fork again, portraying an expression that she had no such intention, and with a nonchalant shrug, she put a piece of meat into her mouth.
“No?”
“But why bother talking? It’s annoying.”
She has no intention of causing trouble.
But she didn’t say she wouldn’t do anything, she just didn’t say she would hit someone. Cessenia looked at her sister with a mischievous smile.
“Are you really not up to anything?”
“Don’t worry.”
There’s nothing to do right now. If someone asks her, she will tell the truth, but there’s nothing to do now.
“But why do you keep smiling?”
“I said I would smile with my own face. Is that also a problem? Unni, you’re really strange. Why are you causing a fuss about me all the time? Is this your usual self? It’s so different from when you talked to Father. ”
Every time Cessenia smiled, Elzé’s face stiffened.
“I mean it. I like it when Unni looks like an angel. So, smile. If Unni doesn’t do anything, I won’t do anything either.”
“……”
“Father. How about it in your eyes? Lately, or rather, isn’t Unni quite strange these days?”
“Hearing Cessenia’s words, it seems so. Elzé. Why are you like this lately? It wasn’t like this before.”
“Well, it’s just… Father wants me to run the family well as the successor, so I’ve become overly sensitive because that thought has filled me. Sensitive. I’m sorry, Cessenia.”
“No. Un, ni.”
Elzé, who chewed the meat like a rabbit, seemed quite repulsive, and Elzé seemed to want to say more, but she realized that saying more wouldn’t help her, so she awkwardly smiled.
“So, Father, you’ll grant my request, right?”
“Well, it’s our daughter’s request. I have to listen to it.”
Only then did Elzé have a rather satisfied expression. This is it. Father has to do as I want. That sentiment seemed evident.
‘Well, it’s not just once or twice. Still, it’s a scene that never gets familiar.’
The fact that Father favored Elzé had been a reality since her childhood. There were various excuses for that.
Because she resembled the mother whom Father loved so much. Because Elzé had been unwell from a young age. There were many excuses, but it still seemed strange.
Contrary to the reputation of being meticulous and ruthless in political affairs in spring, the current appearance showed no signs of being meticulous or ruthless. It was just an inconsistent appearance of indulging in her young daughter’s behavior.
Incredibly, she couldn’t move a muscle against Elzé’s actions. Watching those scenes, Cessenia shook her head in disbelief.
“Now that this has happened, let’s talk about the national banquet.”
“Is there anything special?”
In the past, Elzé made a splendid debut through the national banquet. Elzé found Hefria wool, reaping enormous profits. With a beautiful face and intelligence, all eyes were focused on her.
And this time wouldn’t be any different. Elzé, wanting to attribute Hefria wool to her credit even at the cost of hearing unpleasant remarks, aimed for a splendid debut through the national banquet.
Furthermore, through this event, the Crown Prince intended to expedite the engagement with Elzé.
“They are asking whether you will attend, Cessenia.”
“I’m busy. Why would I attend?”
Cessenia did not attend that banquet in the past. It wasn’t mandatory, and since Elzé, who would succeed the Marquis and the Marquise, had already gone, she didn’t think about going.
Also, she had little interest in social circles.
“Why are you going?”
Of course, not now.
With an infinitely light tone, Cessenia smirked.
“Why do you even care if I go?”
“Oh, well, you didn’t like that kind of thing, did you?”
“Trying to like it. I’m an adult now. Father, can I go?”
“You can. Whether you go or not.”
“Father, originally, you didn’t take Cessenia to such places. She doesn’t even know proper etiquette yet. What kind of banquet is it? If she becomes the sister of the family……”
Elzé began throwing words as to why she didn’t want to bring Cessenia to that place by any means.
“I see. I lack etiquette more than Unni. It’s really an interesting thing.”
“…… Anyway, you didn’t usually go!”
“That’s why I’m saying I’ll go. I’m an adult now. Why, do I have a reason not to go? If Unni says not to go, I won’t. Am I not the younger sister who listens well to Unni?”
The gaze of the Marquis and Cessenia turned towards Elzé.
“…… Just. Because I felt like I had to go this time. I haven’t fully adapted to the social circle yet. Um… So, I’m worried, worried about Unni. As an older sister, because I’m worried about you.”
“Yeah. Don’t worry. Then Father, it seems like I’ve decided to go.”
“This turned out well. It’s been a long time since the three families went out together. It turned out well. So, we should discuss who will escort whom.”
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
