I'm The Lowest-Ranking Daughter Of A Martial Arts Villain (2 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 72
“Why would you say such a thing?”
“It’s annoying because every single word I say gets picked apart!”
Dokgo Cheon immediately retorted at Na Rin’s painfully honest answer.
“But in the Somyeong Palace, the moment you show the slightest weakness, rumors start spreading and you become a target for attacks. That’s why you must be extremely careful with every move and word.”
Tsk. Tsk. Tsk.
That was the sound of Na Rin clicking her tongue.
“You really don’t get it, Father.”
Whether Dokgo Cheon was flustered or not by Na Rin’s bold reply, she went right on speaking her mind.
“If people are truly determined to find fault with you, even your breathing, the way you walk, your smile, or how you choose your clothes—everything becomes grounds for criticism.”
“…….”
“It’s not about avoiding showing any weakness; it’s far more important not to appear weak! Do you understand?”
Dokgo Cheon stroked his chin, fell silent for a moment, then spoke.
“Perhaps… you’re right.”
Ding!

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.”

Havaryoun is the best of the lot; I think he’ll become Narin’s right-hand man in the future.
This was absolutely wonderful. Hwa Ryun will shine today.
So, is that golden-eyed boy the male lead? Or is it someone else?

The others hadn’t even finished aiming properly yet.
Such dedication! Such motivation! And she has almost lost her chance…
“Perfect size!”
Putting some unknown artefact emanating cold .. wise.. especially after 10 lifetimes.
Na Rin widened her eyes in surprise.
Phew.. I was almost frustrated thinking she won’t tell what exactly she was hoping to buy. That’s quite a relief.

Master Narin is very attentive to him; she realized he hates scallions. It seems like she really likes him.

It was nice that every time Narin did something bad, Mother Gong Sun-woo would hit her.

When Narin said, “I hate Dad,” I think her father nearly had a heart attack.

How can they hurt the guardian of our dear, beloved Narin’s future?
