My Fiancé Keeps Trying to Raise Me (16 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 122
“Cough, hack! Hack!”
Right at that moment, Lucius coughed loudly and grabbed the water glass from his desk.
Then, pretending to soothe his throat, he urgently signaled Samuel to snap out of it.
In truth, he himself was also one of those assigned the same mission as Samuel.
Originally, he had intended to follow Charlotte’s strict instructions and summon Kardin to the office to keep him occupied—but Kardin had come first, insisting on meeting Marquis Melin, thus flipping their plans.
“You okay?”
“Huh? Yeah. Must be the change of seasons. The cough…”
In response to Kardin’s question, Lucius fiddled with his perfectly fine throat, making excuses.
Kardin, while scolding him to take things easy, personally refilled his glass with more water.
Just as Lucius took a refreshing gulp, thinking he’d narrowly escaped disaster—
“So. What were you going to say?”
“Huh?”
“You started with ‘It’s all because…’ as if you had some excuse. Go ahead—make your defense. I’ll hear you out once.”
Kardin raised an eyebrow, pressing Samuel.
“Th-that’s…”
After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
