Love Me Just Once (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 41
The prince’s claim that he cherished his younger sister was a lie.
The palace servants, seemingly thoroughly gagged, mechanically chirped that Her Royal Highness the Princess had truly been raised with great affection, yet their descriptions of their master’s hobbies varied wildly. Penrel wondered whether the truth lay in flower arranging, painting, or embroidery.
That wasn’t the only unsettling part.
There were no portraits in the palace documenting the princess’s growth. Only a few formal records remained, showing her dressed in ceremonial robes with a carefully composed expression.
If she had truly been so dearly loved as a princess, everyone would have regretfully preserved memories of her passing time—it was strange indeed.
If even portraits were absent, it was inconceivable that any other trace would remain within the palace.
All the lavish gardens in the palace belonged solely to Mahanas. Though servants deceitfully claimed they were for Her Royal Highness, the gardener knew well that every flower cultivated was one the prince personally enjoyed.
Slipping a gold coin into the hand of one servant, Penrel asked where Her Royal Highness usually took her walks, and the servant answered it was the field behind the palace.
The field was green and dotted with tall, solitary trees—but that was all. It was far too plain, even inadequate, for a nobly raised princess to frequent.
Penrel tried to extract more information, but the servants refused to speak deeply about their master. Though many grew greedy at the sight of money, none offered reliable details.
From their consistent reluctance, Penrel inferred they were being managed under threat to their very lives—after all, nothing took precedence over survival.
Thus, Penrel ventured outside the palace to seek information. However, people avoided deep conversation with him—having grown up in northern Aglante, his speech carried a distinctly sharp accent that betrayed his origins.
After countless failures, Penrel finally managed to coax someone in a tavern where he’d concealed his identity. The elderly man, upon seeing a gold coin, led him to his home.
In the old man’s house, Penrel handed over one gold coin each time the man revealed new information. The old man eagerly seized every coin with his wrinkled hands.
Near the end of their conversation, the old man said,
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
