I'm Terminal Anyway, No Regrets (17 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 96
For a moment, it felt as if the cheers from all around had vanished.
Exaider looked at the crowd with a smile that seemed painted on.
“I could keep the princess’s secret for her.”
The people cheered, and the Crown Prince greeted them back—a perfect, picture-perfect scene.
Under a clear sky on a sunny day, I alone stood beneath the shade, as a chill crept into my bones.
“Even those lacking wit ended up suspicious. The princess stayed long in the Grand Duchy of Wilboyer, claiming to be recuperating. When the supposedly ailing second son of the Grand Duke appears in society, they’ll be certain. Perhaps Princess Ormia truly has been blessed.”
Everyone acts for their own benefit.
Even compassionate clerics who donate and devote their lives to service accumulate good deeds for salvation after death and their own satisfaction.
If even the virtuous are like this, what of the Crown Prince?
“I’ll be the princess’s shield. When the Imperial Crown Prince speaks, who would dare claim it false?”
“And what benefit do you gain from this?”
“The throne.”
“You’re already Crown Prince—do you really need confirmation?”
“Because I’m not Emperor yet.”
Those who have much still desire something higher.
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
Sigh….. i get her, poor baby. But why would he mention kids?? Did he forget she can’t?
I hate this, really hahahaha i will even stop a little bit
