I Received The Holy Sword By Dawn Delivery (4 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 122
“Are you disappointed that I came?”
Matian playfully pinched Lucena’s cheek like a sulky child.
‘What kind of expression am I making for him to say that?’
Even though his mischievous fingers were stretching her cheek, she felt so happy she could die, so she had no idea what he was talking about.
Lucena felt wronged enough to want to look in a mirror. He probably had no idea how long she had waited for him.
“Were you perhaps waiting for an older man?”
From earlier, Matian had been saying things that were completely unlike him.
Maybe the one who had eaten something wrong wasn’t her, but him.
Lucena reached out toward him. She wanted to grab his face too, but her trembling hands couldn’t reach that far and only barely caught the collar of his gown.
The already open front of his gown stretched further as Lucena pulled, then slid all the way down his arm.
As a result, his shoulder was fully exposed outside the gown.
The slanting rays of the setting sun coming through the window cast shadows over his broad shoulders and thickly muscled chest.
Unlike his beautiful features, his beast-like, ferocious body resembled a male god from mythology.
Lucena couldn’t tear her eyes away from that body, then let go of the gown she had been clutching and placed her hand near his solar plexus.
Thump, thump, thump. The fierce pounding of his heart, as if it might burst out at any moment, rapidly struck her palm.

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.”
