No one ever told me I was wrong, and concerns were merely warnings from Yong-yong, which stopped when I expressed my dislike. Despite appearing perfect, I feel like I missed a lot in that life. Paradoxically, I only came to realize that when wandering through the region where the second humanity on the surface lives through multiple reincarnations.
Occasionally, God, who created me as the most cherished and precious existence, raises questions as to why He never engages in the affection typically expressed to the cherished one. No, perhaps I already unconsciously know the answer but wasn’t aware that I didn’t want to deliberately recall it. So, I may dislike God, harbor resentment, and may not be welcoming towards God’s messengers.
The truth is sometimes more hideous than a sweet prison.
“But still, there was one thing that supported me on such days.”
“Supporting? What is it, Commander?”
“A goal.”
In any case, if I had lived immersed only in anger after gaining enlightenment, today’s outcome would never have occurred. Somehow, I ended up doing this and that, and even though there were clearly achievements I made due to greed or because there was no one else but me to do it, I always had a distinct awareness of the theme, wanting to achieve and possess an ego.
“Even if living feels empty, having a clear goal makes me push forward even when I want to give up life.”
So, I conveyed my realization to Praylee as if I were writing it with deep feelings.
“Of course, finding the goal of life is more challenging than you think.”
For a long time, God kept me alive so that I couldn’t die, or it was virtually the same, but after doing that for about 200 years, living to die perfectly became my goal. Now that Praylee has recovered her health to the point where she can roam outside, she just needs to find what she wants to do accordingly.
“But it won’t be difficult.”
So, I could confidently tell Praylee.
“At some point, you’ll find it.”
I was confident because I had experienced everything first, and Praylee, being a smart child, had the ability to understand things in a flash. Knowing that there are different perspectives in her mind, that there are various ways of looking at life, and that there is not necessarily a definitive answer is enough.
“So, if your life goal is not to become a valuable person, don’t be frustrated by proving your worth.”
But why did I end up talking about life stories while talking about just an apple? I don’t think I was originally a person who sympathizes and talks to someone. I shook my head inwardly, thinking that I don’t know about people.
“Let’s go back for now.”
Since it felt like Praylee and I had been chatting alone for about 30 minutes, I glanced at the group waiting quietly behind me.
Miranda, Sasha, and Caleil, all standing upright in their places like statues, waiting. I wondered if any of them had mentioned anything about aching legs.
“They’ve been waiting for us.”
I gestured towards the group behind Praylee, suggesting she take a look.
“Oh, I didn’t know they were waiting for us because I was listening.”
Meanwhile, Praylee seemed to finally acknowledge the presence of Sasha and Caleil. A perplexed expression crossed her face as if she had completely forgotten about the two, and it felt strange because there was a subtle sense of blaming me.
The beginning of this strange atmosphere was when, after seeing the falling apple and hearing you say life is fleeting, I almost retorted if that’s the reason. However, feeling that it might be unnecessary to pick a fight over trivial matters, I decided to let it pass.
“We should quickly go back, Commander.”
Because, there was no particular anger or dissatisfaction with Praylee’s words.
Swoosh.
But then, unexpectedly.
“Shall we go to the greenhouse now?”
“Uh, sure.”
Praylee suddenly threw her arms around me with a cheerful smile.
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.”
