I Will Live for Your Death (20 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 65
The tedious afternoon schedule had finally come to an end. Ilyd gently massaged her right wrist, sore from hours of copying text. No matter how many years she endured it, instead of growing accustomed, it only felt more uncomfortable.
Her entire body cried out in protest from sitting in the same posture and endlessly writing. Perhaps she should go for a walk. She wanted to slip away under the pretext of catching some fresh air and wander wherever her feet took her.
“I’d like to change into something comfortable and go out. Will you help me?”
“Yes, Your Imperial Majesty the Empress.”
It was a life of ease. Merely standing still was enough—her handmaidens and maidservants in charge of her wardrobe soon surrounded her, one by one replacing her garments and accessories. Ilyd only needed to surrender herself to their movements.
“Which outfit would you like to wear?”
The wardrobe attendant laid out four or five dresses in quick succession. Knowing Ilyd’s preferences, she deliberately presented understated gowns, avoiding anything too ornate.
Ilyd dismissed all the bright colors and pointed to the darkest one.
“I’ll take that one, please.”
Perhaps her grief was still too great for bright clothing. Lynette and the wardrobe attendant exchanged quiet glances and resigned themselves to it.
Ilyd closed her eyes and quietly accepted the maids’ service. Was it truly right to grow complacent in such a life?
At the sound that everything was ready, the maids stepped back a few paces. Ilyd gazed into the mirror at her reflection—already comfortably dressed without her lifting a finger.
Somewhere along the way, even her smile had begun to carry sorrow. Though she wrapped herself in dark colors to conceal her festering pain, her heart only sank deeper.
“I’ll go for a walk. I’ll be back before dinner, so don’t worry too much.”
Ilyd gently took Lynette’s hand and whispered. So she’s going to the child’s grave again. Lynette clasped her hand tightly in return. When would warmth finally return to these icy fingers?
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.”
