I Pretended To Be Dead And Ran Away (22 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 65
At Reniel’s words, the Chief Steward was inwardly startled.
“How strange. It’s as if someone thought Lord Tanasis wouldn’t be returning—the room is oddly dirty.”
As she spoke, Reniel was inspecting not only beneath the chandelier but also other areas.
The real Tanasis would have immediately noticed such a thing.
Perhaps he would have realized it the moment he arrived here.
The reason he failed to notice the room’s strange dirtiness was precisely because Reniel was present in the same space.
“Chief Steward.”
Soon, Tanasis followed her gaze, shifting his eyes accordingly, then called out to the Chief Steward.
“You must have thought I wouldn’t come back, right?”
“Huh? No, that’s not—!”
“Why? Did someone else claim I was dead again?”
Tanasis was coldly furious.
He’d always known he had no truly loyal people within this Crown Prince’s quarters.
But what enraged him now was that Reniel had noticed it.
He’d assumed at least they’d pretend loyalty to him—yet here they were, humiliating him in front of Reniel.
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.”
