Seduce With The Body Of An Enemy (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 72
The vacation proceeded at the same time as in previous years.
The location was Keshstein Palace, chosen by Evelina.
By Cassius’s order, the procession consisted only of Tikan and a small number of Wolfdor knights for escort.
Inside the monotonously moving carriage, it was predictably quiet.
Cassius recalled the Empress, who had insisted with a solemn expression on taking this vacation just the two of them.
The Empress’s face, gazing out the window, seemed somehow elated.
That look was utterly unlike her demeanor at the negotiation table just recently—she resembled nothing so much as an innocent child.
The more he looked, the more absurdly amusing she seemed.
She had acted as though about to make some grand request, only to ask for nothing more than a vacation alone together.
Beneath her neatly coiffed blue hair, her clear face and, below it, her long, snow-white neck were plainly visible.
Stray wisps of hair escaping above fluttered gently in the breeze slipping through the window.
Because they were sitting so close, her sweet fragrance reached him each time that happened.
Perhaps she had finally given up the habit she once picked up from Rachel—since then, that scent no longer came from her.
Then again, by now she must have long abandoned any thought of seducing him.
After all, the only reason she had endured such cold words from him this long was likely as part of her revenge against Diarobe.

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.”
