Life After Divorce (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 55
Edmund wore a tunic that gleamed as white as his silver hair, paired with silk trousers that hung loosely to the ground.
When the wind swept over him, the outline of his well-toned body became clearly visible.
He had neatly swept one side of his hair back, allowing shafts of light filtered through the leaves to flicker across his exposed forehead—and onto his amber irises. The light glittered like finely cut gemstones, mesmerizing me into a trance.
‘Ah, that face truly deserves to be preserved with embalming fluid and displayed in the national museum.’
Now I understood why Lady Natiri had been so entranced by his face that she couldn’t even eat.
For a moment, his gaze fell directly onto me.
Flustered at being caught staring, I quickly lowered my eyes—just as his shirt gaped open, revealing his firm torso.

He asked in a slightly trembling voice.
“See what? I didn’t see anything.”
My heart fluttered in alarm, but I feigned nonchalance as I turned back toward him.
…Why are you buttoning your shirt like that? And glaring at me with such clear annoyance in your eyes.
His current expression reminded me of that day on the opera house stairs. I almost explained that the shirt had opened by accident and that I’d only been gazing at his face—but my lips merely twitched, and no words came out.
I couldn’t bring myself to say it. It was too embarrassing.

Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
