Regret With All Your Might (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 97
“Wh-what impudence! My lady—no, Miss! How dare you burst into laughter right before me?”
The imperial princess shouted, her face flushed crimson with reproach.
But Olivia couldn’t suppress her laughter.
Perhaps mother and daughter were truly alike. No—if it was this that made her laugh, then even the Crown Prince made them three of a kind.
Suddenly, Olivia stopped laughing. She turned and looked steadily at the imperial princess.
Those condescending eyes that looked down upon her, along with those curt, arrogant commands.
“…How is it that you haven’t changed at all?”
Olivia spoke softly. All the memories she thought she’d cast aside surged back through the cracks in an instant.
“The situation now is vastly different from when Your Highness first gave me an order.”
“D-different? What nonsense! I told you to hand over the mine—why so many excuses!”
Time was of the essence, yet Olivia kept speaking in riddles. Anxious and flustered, the imperial princess cried out abruptly.
A faint smile lingered on Olivia’s lips.
“You’re too late, Your Highness.”
“…What?”
It took the imperial princess a beat to grasp the meaning behind that gentle voice.
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.”

It’s simply too late. After all the things they did to Olivia, they do not deserve any ounce of mercy.
Yet that gaze—why did emotions she thought long buried keep surging up?
