Love You, Love You Not (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 040
Since returning to Evan Bacher, Scathach had been living—half against her will—in the admiral’s quarters, under the pretense of being his personal physician due to his injuries.
The admiral’s quarters no longer housed Emperor Attila.
The Emperor, furious beyond measure at Admiral Blachnatt for summarily executing Ezra’s mercenary without so much as a word and in defiance of his orders, had already returned to Corbe.
In truth, the admiral did possess the authority to execute spies on the spot, but Emperor Attila had realized that Blachnatt killed Genann not out of duty as an admiral, but out of rage for having laid hands on Scathach.
Thus, Scathach had also heard the Emperor’s furious voice shouting through the opened tent flap, “Go ahead and do whatever the hell you want, you damn dog!”
For the past few days, all Scathach had done under the guise of being his physician was to rebandage his wounded shoulder each early morning and help him into his uniform, given his injured arm.
What kind of physician wears such an elegant blouse and satin skirt? And on top of that, a physician without even a medical license—need anything more be said?
Everyone, including Scathach herself, knew full well that “physician” was merely an excuse. Yet, as Casar had said, though people might think he was madly infatuated with Scathach, none dared question his decision.
After all, the admiral—who had barely managed to save his drowning lover and return with her—naturally appeared utterly worn out.
Nowadays, Scathach’s daily routine consisted of reading alone in his quarters during the day and falling asleep nestled in his arms at night.
He occasionally left even at night for meetings or operational matters, and whenever he did, he would summon Ériu to stay with Scathach.
“If you were still alive, I’d have wished for you to run far away.”
Ériu spoke with a bitter smile.
“Since His Majesty suspected you, I feared something terrible would happen if you ever came back.”
Scathach knew that the nurses who had shared her quarters had been dragged off for interrogation.
Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!

This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”
