Love You, Love You Not (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 090
On a bright spring day, just before the parliamentary session was to begin in Corbe.
It was also the season when the young ladies of the Nine Houses, about to make their debut, flocked to the capital, brimming with high hopes and dreams. In the park bathed in warm spring sunshine, nobles strolled about, pretending to enjoy the scenery while secretly scouting potential husbands and wives for their families.
The centennial celebration of Farsade’s founding was scheduled to run throughout the entire month of spring, and this year it was heralded as an extraordinary social event, drawing distinguished guests from nations across the world.
Amidst all this, the two most coveted marriage prospects of the season were Duke Blachnatt and Princess Erwin—poisonous bait that might kill you if swallowed, yet undeniably tempting nonetheless.
“Good heavens. Don’t look over there.”
The elderly chaperone assigned to Epona de Parbader frowned as she spoke. Of course, that only made Epona look—and indeed, she saw Duke Blachnatt.
The tall man, clad in a black long coat reaching his knees, held the leash of a large black dog in one hand and a bright yellow bouquet in the other—a sight arresting enough on its own.
Yet, for someone who had caused his marriage to be annulled and ruined Princess Erwin’s life, his audacity to show his face in public again was either brazen insolence or astonishing naivety.
Over the past year, he had fallen endlessly.
From the Empire’s hero who brought victory, he had become the infamous demon who seduced an unwed noblewoman, engaged in an improper relationship, and allegedly murdered his lover and unborn child to cover up an illegitimate birth scandal.
Although during the trial it was clarified that the murder allegations were merely unconfirmed rumors, hardly anyone believed him innocent.
Once soaring gloriously after his triumph—on the verge of establishing his own Grand Duchy—the Empire’s hero had his title demoted back to Duke and lost his vast Baltimoore territory in the Empire’s northwest.
And that wasn’t all.
Princess Erwin, who had already held a grand wedding and consummated her marriage with the Grand Duke, sued for damages following the annulment, forcing him to relinquish both Lindkoem and the Ebern Special Autonomous Zone entirely.
Emperor Attila apologized to Princess Erwin for having officiated the wedding ceremony himself despite the Archbishop’s refusal.
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.”
