Regret With All Your Might (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 65
The dining hall of Tiaze Palace.
“…That’s why. I’ve been reading documents all day long.”
Unlike Maria Etel, who recited her daily routine in an animated voice, the Crown Prince stared down at his white plate with a rigidly set face.
Baroness Sopron, standing against the wall, held even her breath. The atmosphere was ominous.
The elegant ends of Leopold’s eyes gradually sharpened.
“But, Leopold—why aren’t you eating much today, of all days?”
Maria Etel seemed to have noticed the Prince’s mood. At her coquettish tone, Baroness Sopron felt slightly relieved.
After all, the Crown Prince always softened at his lover’s endearing expressions. She assumed his furrowed brow would smooth out in no time.
“…There’s a smell.”
Thus, when that unexpectedly cold voice dropped, the dining hall froze as if doused with icy water.
A smell—on the food meant for the exalted Crown Prince?
Baroness Sopron and everyone else present felt a chill run down their spines.
“What on earth is this in His Highness’s meal…!”
“I beg your pardon, Your Highness.”
As Maria cried out sharply, Baroness Sopron hurried forward to apologize. The sight of servants kneeling in succession seemed to move slowly before Leopold’s eyes.
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.”
