Postponing Divorce (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 115
After receiving Sang Heon’s call, Ji Pil went to his study and passed the time there. In his hand was the contract that Kyeong Hee had brought.
The moment he saw Kyeong Hee, Ji Pil had wanted to press her about Jae Oh’s situation, but he couldn’t bring himself to ask.
Partly because Jae Oh himself hadn’t spoken a word, and partly because Ji Pil guessed—from Kyeong Hee’s remark that it wasn’t yet time to summon her—that Jae Oh must have some plan in mind.
So he held his tongue—only for this contract to suddenly appear.
Ji Pil’s brow furrowed as he read through the document again and again, filled from start to finish with clauses so absurd they only drew hollow laughter.
What kind of mindset would it take to draft something like this? Then again, considering this person had even attempted kidnapping, perhaps something like this contract wasn’t so surprising after all.
Suddenly, the image of Jae Oh—vanishing without warning, then returning injured—came vividly back to him. And along with it, Kyeong Hee’s flustered, deeply worried expression.
[“Oh my, Jae Oh! What on earth happened? Goodness gracious.”]
A weak, humorless chuckle escaped Ji Pil as the faint memory resurfaced.
He’d kept urging Jae Oh to talk to Kyeong Hee, telling him he wouldn’t say a word to her himself about who’d done this to him…
‘As if he’d ever open his mouth.’
Because of his trust in Kyeong Hee, Jae Oh had grown up relying on no one but himself—becoming the kind of man who trusted only his own judgment.
Watching him, Ji Pil had foolishly reassured himself that at least Jae Oh hadn’t done anything truly wrong, and comforted himself with the thought that if only Jae Oh found the right partner, even that temper of his might someday mellow.
Ji Pil’s lips tightened into a bitter line. His self-mocking expression quickly twisted into a grimace. With a soft “Tsk,” he took a sip from the glass of whiskey he’d poured.
[“I admit I was blinded by immediate gain and did things to Jae Oh and Chae Yoon that I shouldn’t have. I was wrong, Father.”]
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.”
