I Received The First Time Of My Extraordinary Superior (9 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 65
Even in the afternoon sunlight, the scenery along Wallgarden Avenue remained bleak and desolate.
Sydney gauged the distance by looking at the Imperial Army headquarters building in the distance. About a fifteen-minute walk…
Lifting her gaze against the biting wind that clawed at her face, she took in the clear sky—when suddenly, a coachman’s sharp shout urging his horses forward struck her ears.
“Hah!”
That sound marked the beginning, as all manner of noise rushed in.
The rhythmic clop-clop of hooves striking the ground, the rumble of carriage wheels rolling across the pavement, and then—clang, clang, clang—the temple bells ringing out the hour of five, beneath which Logan’s voice was barely audible.
“Don’t ever say again that you’ll handle things alone. Steve De Niro is far more dangerous and cunning than you think.”
After finishing his sentence, Logan furrowed his brow and took a deep drag from his cigarette.
Then, exhaling a long stream of white smoke, he flicked the cigarette away with his fingers.
His every movement, along with his cold expression and tone, carried traces of disappointment and irritation.
It sounded almost like a petulant complaint: “Why won’t you rely on me?”—and that thought made her chest tingle with warmth, almost causing her to giggle. Sydney quickly covered her mouth with her fist and cleared her throat for no real reason.
“Hmm… just telling me to be careful without any proper explanation… Did something happen between you and Lord De Niro?”
Logan tilted his head slightly, seemingly surprised by the question.
“Aren’t you usually the one who refuses to pry into personal matters?”
“That’s you, Captain.”
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.”
