No matter how much he attended nobles’ parties and mingled with them, it was implied that Tasir was still not a noble. No, it was embarrassingly explicit to even say it was an implication.
Tasir stared piercingly at Guesta for a moment. However, instead of getting angry, he smirked and rested his chin on his hand.
“Our innocent young master, I knew you had some character, but I didn’t expect you to show it to me.”
“……”
“But it’s adorable. It’s so petty and trivial that it’s charming.”
“!”
After finishing his speech, Tasir reached out and suddenly poked Guesta’s cheek. At that moment, Guesta grabbed Tasir’s wrist in a blink of an eye and pinned it down on the table with a thud.
“What are you doing?”
The voice that followed was not weak at all. The arm muscles that Latil had admired several times demonstrated their strength and speed.
“I thought I could show my character too when I saw you doing it while there was no one else.”
However, Tasir still giggled without feeling any threat from his opponent.
The already bad atmosphere got even sharper. If anyone came into the room at that time, they would look at the two of them alternately, then close the door and leave.
However, instead of getting angrier, Guesta squinted his eyes as if thinking for a moment and then let go of Tasir’s wrist.
“Phew. It hurts.”
Tasir looked at his own wrist, which Guesta had released, making an exaggerated gesture of pain. It was bearable pain, but it wasn’t a pretense. A bruise had formed on his wrist in the meantime.
Seeing this, Guesta smiled gently again, covered his mouth with his hand, and asked in a timid voice.
“So, Lord Tasir. How splendid do you want this banquet to be?”
[This is the time separator]“No, are they still discussing?”
Two days later. After finishing the state affairs meeting, Latil was surprised to ask the master of ceremonies how much preparation Guesta and Tasir had made for the banquet. Because of the answer that nothing had been done yet.
“Do they meet all the time except when they eat and sleep?”
“Yes……”
“Laura? What about Laura?”
Laura was the secretary that Latil had attached to help Guesta and Tasir prepare for the banquet. She thought that both would not know much about the preparation process, so she attached her. But nothing has been done for two days……
“On the first day, I gave them a free space to share their opinions.”
The master of ceremonies sighed.
“But they couldn’t agree on an opinion no matter how long they waited, so the next day, they went in to participate in the debate between the two.”
“But why is there no result?”
The master of ceremonies sighed again.
“Both are very stubborn, and they never bend their opinions.”
Latil clicked her tongue in amazement. In fact, she had put the two together, but she thought that Guesta would probably follow Tasir’s wishes unilaterally.
What Latil essentially expected from Guesta was a shield role to prevent people from murmuring, “There is the prince and the son of the meritorious, but why did she entrust the banquet preparation to a merchant from the common people?” But the work was not progressing because Guesta didn’t give up her stubbornness.
“Guesta seems to be unexpectedly stubborn.”
“Both are stubborn.”
“Ah, well, it seems. But Tasir has an image from the beginning…….”
It looked stubborn to anyone. On his side, if someone doesn’t listen to him, he would threaten them to push through his opinion, so she didn’t expect their opinions to be coordinated in the first place.
[This is the time separator]Finally, the report that at least some preparation for the banquet was underway came three days later.
“It’s good.”
Latil glanced at the report summarized by the secretary and nodded.
“You used your head well.”
Latil didn’t know. How much arguing Tasir and Guesta had to do to get these two words of praise.
“My Lord. It doesn’t matter if you appear noncooperative. But remember this. Regardless of whether the result is good or bad, we are on the same boat. If we prepare for the banquet poorly, you and I will both completely fall out of favor with Her Majesty.”
Eventually, things got so bad that Tasir had to calm Guesta down, pressing his temples.
“Let’s step back halfway.”
Guesta, who had been uncompromising throughout, finally stepped half a step back when Tasir showed a retreat first.
“That’s fine. But remember, this will be the first and last time we hold hands.”
“You really are unlucky, aren’t you?”
“Mr. Tasir, even if I exclude subjective and personal emotions, your opinion is wrong.”
In any case, as a result of such a dispute, it was decided to prepare the banquet somewhere between the extravagance advocated by Tasir and the simplicity advocated by Guesta.
The secretary was startled at the idea of mixing two completely opposite atmospheres for the first two consorts, but upon seeing the result of having lavish decorations while making it look simple by unifying the color in black, he nodded.
As the secretary’s report gradually took shape, a minister from Sosta came to visit.
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…?
