The large fruit skewer that Caron had bought was so big and heavy that Evelia had to hold it with both hands, taking a bite off each piece as she walked behind him.
As feared, a tail had formed.
After witnessing her easily spill out several gold coins from her teddy bear bag to the begging children and then walk away clumsily, the thugs in the alleyway quietly followed Evelia.
It was clear that the richlooking baby, who was being accompanied by a single fluffy young boy and what appeared to be a knight escort, was of nobility.
If they could distract the knight escort, the kidnapping would be as easy as pie.
“Hey, you go pick a fight with that knight over there. While you’re doing that, we’ll snatch the girl.”
“That knight doesn’t look that strong. Ha, I wonder what’ll happen if he gets hit by my terrifying fire fist and drops dead.”
While it was a bit worrying that the knight was guarding the girl, he didn’t look very strong.
If they had only such a weaklooking knight as an escort, they couldn’t be highranking nobles.
It was certain that they would be able to get their hands on some money if they negotiated properly after the kidnapping.
“We’ve hit the jackpot. Unless they’re from the Duke Artina family, they’ll be shaking just hearing our ‘Gojath’ family name.”
“No, boss, it’s not Gojath, it’s Gorgeous, Gorgeous! If others hear it, they might misunderstand.”
The ten men, who recently made a name for themselves in the alleyway, laughed thinking about the big money they were about to make.
Just as they were about to take a step towards their dream of making a fortune, a firm arm rested on the shoulder of the man leading the way.
“What a shame. We’re from ‘that’ family. But what’s the deal with your gang’s name?”
Startled by the man who appeared out of nowhere and whispered in his ear, the boss of the alleyway jumped, causing Harold to grin wickedly.
“Hmm, the security in the capital is terrible. I should report this to the lord.”
Dwen yawned and stretched. He was already tired from just watching the little miss’s chubby backside.
“Take care of it quietly.”
Commander Eddie gave the order to Harold and Dwen.
Harold responded with a ‘Yes!’ and immediately broke the man’s fist, bursting into laughter.
“You punk, you’re going to hit Caron with this pathetic fist? Hahaha!”
Unaware that the three knights who were secretly following her had quietly taken care of the ten thugs,
Evelia, who had finished her entire fruit skewer, was drooling over the smell of chicken skewers from a food cart.
“That one……”
Cedric stopped Evelia, who was slowly approaching the food cart as if drawn by the smell, by tapping his palm against her forehead.
“Can you eat more, Eve? Your stomach’s going to burst.”
At Cedric’s words, Evelia shook her head as if that was the most ridiculous thing she had ever heard, still focusing on the smoke from the chicken skewers.
Her stomach wasn’t going to burst just because he said it would.
Seeing her desperate desire, which could only be quenched by feeding her the chicken skewers, Caron said,
“There are too many people there. Stay here, I’ll go buy it.”
The chicken skewer cart was particularly popular among street foods, so much so that it was crowded with people and barely visible.
If Evelia rushed in there, she would be flattened like a chick and roasted.
As Caron approached the food cart, Evelia, who had regained her appetite, promptly tugged at Cedric’s sleeve.
“Brother, I’m thirsty. Can I call Oondine?”
Oondine was a water spirit who could provide water.
Her throat was dry. She hadn’t had a sip of water for several hours after eating dessert.
After pondering for a moment, Cedric remembered Elysia’s advice and shook his head.
When a spirit master ‘summons’ a spirit, the spirit reveals itself.
That means, others who are not spirit masters can see the spirit too.
Spirits masters are quite rare in this empire, so if she summoned Oondine here, it would attract attention.
“No, not here. I’ll go get something. Just stay here for a moment.”
He had already been told by his father that the three knights would follow him.
So even if he left his spot for a moment, there shouldn’t be any big problems. Caron was also right in front of the food cart.
The three knights, unaware they were dealing with the back alley miscreants who had already targeted the young lady, made their decision.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]Evelia, who had been standing idly in the street waiting for Cedric and Caron to return, turned her head with curious eyes upon hearing a man and woman arguing in the distance.
“Ah, just leave me alone! You brat!”
A woman with silver hair tied high in a ponytail and eyes as captivating as a cat, was punching the belly of a man with red hair.
The woman was a stunning beauty, noticeable even from afar.
“You witch! Calm down! What are you going to do right now!”
“Just saying hello! Just hello! He’s right in front of me!”
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
