Second Male Lead, You Said It Was A Contract Marriage? (7 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 091
Returning to the imperial palace, Valentino suddenly recalled the words Julietta had spoken, her face looking as if she were about to burst into tears at any moment.
“……I don’t want to talk with you right now, brother.”
Julietta had risen from her seat, leaving him speechless. Where had things gone wrong? How could their relationship ever return to how it once was?
No—had their relationship ever truly been good to begin with? This lingering doubt had plagued him throughout the entire carriage ride.
Perhaps he had merely mistaken patience for affection. Only now did it dawn on him that his kind younger sister might have silently endured everything, making him falsely believe they shared a close sibling bond.
Someone called out to Valentino as he entered, his blank expression betraying his inner turmoil. It was his direct superior from the Imperial Treasury Department, also part of the imperial staff.
“Valentino! You, who’s always buried in paperwork—what’s this? Taking half-leave to rush off somewhere?”
“Just briefly—I was visiting my younger sister.”
“But why do you look so… Ah. I see.”
His superior patted Valentino’s shoulder, as if understanding everything.
“You’ve been so busy lately, stuck inside the palace all the time. This must’ve been your first visit since the imperial banquet, right? Of course your sister would be upset.”
“How do you know my sister is angry?”
His superior’s eyes narrowed slightly, as if he were hearing something strange.
“How could you not know? She was the youngest daughter, so deeply loved in the Orbetian household. Leaving her abandoned in a duke’s mansion just because you’re busy—of course she’d feel hurt. Before marriage, she dined and talked with her family every day. Then suddenly, she’s sent alone to a completely unfamiliar place. No matter how well her husband treats her, she’ll still feel lonely.”
The words, spoken as if they were obvious, pierced Valentino’s heart like a sharp arrow. After all, he could count on one hand the times he’d shared a meal or conversation with Julietta.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”

I replied, mimicking her sickly-sweet expression. Her eyes trembled slightly. Sh
Well, go away with rage, girl! God, you can be so annoying.
And she was so intense, acting like she didn’t even have a husband.
Panicked, I shouted at him.
But let him put that greedy bitch in her place. She wants everything for herself. I hope things don’t go well for her at all.

Because your dear wife is crazy and wants to be the center of attention and can’t stand not being so for a second
