She sneaked a peek down, preparing to tease him to her heart’s content.
She was sure.
[This is a time marker.]In fact, the book she offered wasn’t that difficult for me, a reincarnator, to read.
I have reincarnated with my memories intact, and I have read a lot with the god who sent me to this world. It’s to blend naturally into this world.
But I can’t reveal all the knowledge I know, so I decided to show only half.
“No [dash].”
The two who were looking at the book I offered were silent and frozen.
‘What, ominously?’
I bit my lip slightly.
“Did you… solve all of this?”
“No. There were things I didn’t know.”
In fact, there is nothing I don’t know here. I’m on my second life, and I’ve been given the merit of knowing the settings in the books along with the penalty from the god.
I can’t say [dash]
“This much is remarkable.”
“How could this happen.”
“If I had read you a fairy tale, I wouldn’t have seen this gemlike figure. If you were really alone in the countryside, at this level, could you be a genius?”
The disciplinarian was looking at me with big eyes.
‘Genius? Something is going wrong?’
I hurriedly opened my mouth to deny it.
“No. Not smart at all.”
“You are truly sharp.”
I decided to firmly add a denial to the denial.
“I guessed all of it.”
At my words, the kind disciplinarian tilted his head abruptly.
“Huh? How do you guess and get the subjective questions right. You are also modest.”
His eyes are sparkling!
He smiles too brightly, his mouth is ripped like Jaws!
That gentleman is kind, but it’s burdensome!
‘Should I have pretended not to know the letters in anticipation of being ignored for being stupid?’
In the face of an unexpected situation, sweat was running down my back, but I managed to keep a calm face and raised the corners of my mouth.
“How happy the Duchess of Lukela would be if she knew about this!”
The disciplinarian, Rilmi, who had regained her senses, opened her mouth with a flippant laugh.
“Heh, even if the Duchess knew, she’s already [dash].”
“Already what?”
Was it itching to say that the Duchess is already an old woman in the background?
But even if the Duchess is an old woman in the background of a villain family, she could easily throw away something like a successor’s instructor, right?
Having belatedly realized that fact, Rilmi coughed a few times before saying.
“That… anyway, isn’t it too much of a compliment? Even others, including Lord Iled, have solved the problem. I should bring a harder book tomorrow.”
“What, isn’t Lord Iled a genius that appears once in a thousand years?”
It was good that he had snubbed the socalled instructor. However, seeing the flushed expressions on their faces, I was a bit flustered.
‘Did I show off too much?’
The boy who had been quietly watching the situation tapped on my desk from the side.
“Bamtoll.”
I glanced at him and paused.
He had a rather fiery gaze.
I, I think I’m being restrained by this villain [dash].
“Totally cool.”
He handed me a small notebook and pen with a beaming smile.
“Autograph.”
Take back what I just said.
I, I think I’m in trouble.
Between the two middleaged men who were in charge of education looking at each other in surprise, my heart was set upon by a boy of about ten years old, who I did not know at all. He was beaming at me and said.
“You. See me for a moment later. I have something to do.”
I looked at him blankly.
“I don’t want to. I won’t.”
“I’ll give you something nice.”
Leonhardt’s beautiful lips curled slightly upward.
‘…What is it, that smile?’
Swear to God, it was the first time the smile of a boy whose name I didn’t even know made me feel so uneasy.
[This is a time separator.]A few hours later, Duchess Lukela was receiving reports on the every action of the direct descendants of the family. Her son, Matthias, was also present.
The Duchess pushed up her glasses and muttered softly.
“Did he say the honey jar in the rag was his favorite?”
Matthias’ expression contorted.
He opened his mouth.
“There must be a misunderstanding in that. My servant.”
“No, my lord, you definitely defended the Duchess [dash].”
The servant’s attempt to stutter out a reply was cut off by the Duchess’s quiet voice.
“Is that so, that honey jar was worried about me.”
“Yes. Moreover, she showed amazing achievement in her first education received this time.”
“I see.”
Duchess Lukela glanced at her son, Matthias. Matthias remained expressionless. But there was a slight tremor in his voice.
“Because she’s my daughter.”
Watching Matthias, the Duchess opened her mouth with an expression of mild discomfort.
“I should give a light reward.”
The servant thought.
What……. She might give even a small candy as a reward, perhaps.
“As a reward [dash][dash][dash][dash][dash] should be given. It’s not a big reward, so it should be enough. Prepare it immediately.”
The servant’s mouth dropped open in that instant.
The report that had been in his hand fell to the floor and rolled away.
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.”
