I'm Terminal Anyway, No Regrets (17 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 97
The Great Hall was packed with nobles, just as it had been during the spring festival banquet that heralded the start of the social season.
Their attention was undeniably fixed on the new face, Ormia Beltoar, who basked in the Emperor’s favor.
Having witnessed Ormia’s blessing, the Emperor personally escorted her into the hall alone.
He seated her beside the imperial throne, treating her as an honored guest.
That alone elevated Ormia Beltoar to an undeniable presence.
As the banquet reached its peak, the Crown Prince descended alone with Ormia.
‘Like bees swarming to honey.’
Liam followed behind them and offered a brief assessment.
“Princess Ormia, in all my life I’ve never seen such a miracle. Would it be too late to start visiting the Lagras Temple from today? I’ve simply been too busy until now.”
“The gods will understand your devotion even if you don’t visit the temple, so long as your heart remains faithful.”
“Princess, my granddaughter is unwell—please, might you visit our estate?”
“My blessing only works on those with abilities, so it wouldn’t help your granddaughter. But if it would ease your mind, I’ll certainly come.”
“My salon gathers renowned artists and scientists. If you would grace us with your insights on divinity, many would be inspired. If it’s agreeable to you, please consider it.”
“Gladly.”
“Princess, I am from the Etherthia Empire’s distinguished House of…”
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.”
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
