I Received The First Time Of My Extraordinary Superior (9 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 22
Walter Asner.
The first time Sydney met him was in the dean’s office at the military academy.
At that time, Walter Asner was shouting back fiercely while the dean gripped him by the hair.
“Ugh! Stop it, I said! Just because you’re my grandfather doesn’t mean you can do whatever you want!”
“Yeah! Precisely because I’m your grandfather… I can’t cut off your head, so I’ll just cut your hair instead, you damn brat!”
Snip-snip—the dean’s scissors sent long strands of orange hair tumbling to the floor.
Walter Asner, who ruled the military academy like a tyrant, screamed like a child simply because his hair had been cut.
“Aaargh! My hair!”
“Hold still, you idiot. I might cut your ears next.”
The dean laughed dryly, pressing down hard on Walter’s thigh with his foot to keep him from standing up.
The haircut only ended when Walter’s hair was trimmed down to the length of a fingernail.
After sitting Walter down beside him on the sofa, the dean turned to Sydney with a kind expression.
“Sydney Warden, I heard you placed first in this term’s exams. And my grandson here, proudly, came in last.”
“Well, I’m still first either way.”
The dean let out a quiet chuckle, ruffling his grandson’s newly shorn hair as the boy grinned brightly.
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.”
Ahhhh the “I have a friend” line. How did she keep her gender hidden this long smh lol
Could it be he was the one who designed the dresses Victoria gifted her?
