I Received The Holy Sword By Dawn Delivery (4 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 90
Could it be that someone had been tailing me? Since the plaza? Or since the dormitory? Not having sensed a thing, Lucena couldn’t tell when he’d started following her.
“Was this covered in the intermediate martial arts lecture? The method for cornering a fleeing target.”
A large pair of shoes approached with a steady thud and stopped right in front of the table where Lucena was hiding.
“You fake your movement with footsteps, then lie in wait along the target’s expected escape route and catch them.”
The alley was already dim, receiving no light—but now that he stood before her, an even darker shadow fell over her.
“Most targets come out within thirty minutes anyway.”
Matian tapped twice on the table’s worn wooden surface, as if knocking.
Even though she’d known she’d been caught, Lucena flinched at the sound.
‘Damn it, how embarrassing.’
Whether it was because she desperately didn’t want him to find out or because her legs had gone limp, Lucena didn’t come out immediately but buried her face in her knees instead.
She heard his long sigh, yet still didn’t move.
“What’s the problem?”
The voice that had come from above her head was now right in front of her.
She lifted her head slightly to look—and saw Matian kneeling on one knee, bringing his eyes level with hers.
“Need help?”
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.”
