I Pretended To Be Dead And Ran Away (22 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 52
Tanasis looked at Reniel’s back as she walked ahead of him.
She must be showing me her back because she trusts me, foolish as she is.
He remained in a sour mood, displeased by the thought that she seemed reluctant to leave House Le Pelique.
He, too, gazed toward the Le Pelique manor, thick with pitch-black smoke.
The main building’s fire appeared to be gradually brought under control—the dense smoke was slowly thinning.
It was only natural; the moment Tanasis withdrew his magic, the flames became manageable.
Soon, his attention was drawn to Reniel’s legs—trying so hard to appear strong yet clearly weak.
Each time she pretended not to be fragile despite her obvious delicacy—so delicate she seemed as if she’d snap at a mere touch—he found her strangely fascinating.
Where on earth did she get such audacity?
“…What do you think would happen if I killed you right here, like this?”
Tanasis said it deliberately.
He disliked how thoughts of House Le Pelique were clouding Reniel’s focus on escape.
No—more precisely, he couldn’t tolerate the way she seemed to be thinking about Felix.
He didn’t fully understand their relationship, of course.
All he knew was that Reniel’s attitude toward Felix felt far too tender for a mere master-servant dynamic, and that irked him.

Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!

Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
