Saved Him, Now I'm Obsessed (10 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 115
I told Daniel there was no need for him to feel so burdened, and that I was already grateful just for his help.
Soon beads of sweat gathered on his forehead, and the sight resembled a masterpiece painted by a great artist.
Watching him pout his lips in concentration, I began to understand why he was so confident that Claire would like him.
He possessed looks that easily won people’s affection, so it was only natural for him to be brimming with such self-assurance.
Just as I tried to focus again on weeding, Daniel asked me,
“What’s this round fruit nestled between the leaves? It looks pretty, but it’s surprisingly light… and somehow feels hollow inside….”
“A fruit? Ah! Don’t press hard…”
Before I could even finish my sentence, a crisp *pop* echoed out. I squeezed my eyes shut, already dreading the horror that would unfold next.
“Eek!”
I heard Daniel scream.
Although the medicinal herb field was overrun with weeds, none had grown mature enough yet to bear fruit. What appeared at first glance to be a bright red, perfectly round fruit was actually not a fruit at all—but an insect egg sac.
Inside the cherry-sized, spherical membrane were several larvae coiled tightly together. For an insect egg, why did it have to be so deceptively beautiful? The first time I’d discovered one, I’d naively popped it without knowing what it was, and had shrieked in horror.
Though I’d thought myself unbothered by handling insects—since they were occasionally used as medicinal ingredients—the shock was entirely different between encountering dried, processed specimens and live ones teeming with vibrant life force.
“It’s stuck on my hand!”
Prince Daniel seemed even more shaken than I had been. Flapping his hands like a fledgling bird just learning to fly, he desperately tried to peel the bug off the back of his hand.
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.”
