Second Male Lead, You Said It Was A Contract Marriage? (7 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 074
Ah, of course this isn’t about me. So, how would the lady feel, I wonder, when Yezar ended up in a real marriage instead of just a contract one?
“That’s something I already know well—the wretched glances clinging to such a remarkable lady. Many would gladly spar with her one by one.”
“Wretched glances toward me? Probably just curiosity because I’m the rumored Duchess of Ferhaem. And don’t waste your effort sparring with others. You should spar with me instead.”
He’d been so busy lately that we barely had time to spar anyway. Now he wanted to spar with someone else? Not a single hair of me wanted to give up such a precious opportunity to another.
“I barely have enough time to devote to my lady. Still, Julietta, I think you need a more objective view of your own appearance.”
If he kept telling me I was beautiful, I might start believing I was truly peerless. While I knew I was good-looking, I also knew I wasn’t someone who could captivate every gaze.
But arguing here wouldn’t make Yezar change his mind—he was too stubborn. So this time, I decided to back down.
“Yes. I’ll take care of all those numerous men who seek sparring opportunities with me due to my appearance.”
That settled it, didn’t it? If any wretched scoundrel truly dared to approach me, a married woman, I’d personally deal with them in his place while he stayed busy.
“That way, Yezar won’t have to think about anyone else and can focus solely on sparring with me.”
I shrugged my shoulders as I said this, and he laughed.
“It does seem that way. But if another man grabs your hand and keeps trying to talk to you, don’t be kind—just push him away. Better yet, draw a sword. I’ll handle the aftermath.”
He wouldn’t say something he couldn’t back up. So those words must have been sincere.
‘Now that I think about it, he mentioned recently that he’s almost out of stock because he’s broken too many wooden dolls.’
If some vile trash dared to approach me, a married woman, maybe I could just tap them lightly with my scabbard, like knocking over a wooden doll.
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.”

And so, once, Bertisha had no doubt that he would keep all his feelings forever.
People change. If you’re already married and you knew he was in love with you, you shouldn’t understand why he left her. It’s painful, but you don’t care because you’re extremely selfish and just want to be the center of attention. GOD, YOU IRRATE ME SO MUCH
His feelings had become so familiar they felt like they belonged solely to her.
God, what a bitch you are.
You want her to keep chasing after you but without acknowledging her feelings. You don’t care if it hurts her as long as she stays the same.
With just one word from her, one laugh, Yezar would crumble. That was the nature
I don’t dislike you that much. Who do you think you are? If you’re so bored, find something to do. Don’t come bothering my lovely couple.
