Seduced the Doomed Villain (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 40
Helly quietly watched Diana through the strands of hair falling over his forehead. Information was money. Only a fool would blurt it out so easily.
“Upon arrival, Kitchen of the Bank Queen. Three days.”
The Kitchen of the Bank Queen was the name of the most famous restaurant in the capital square. One had to be on the waiting list a month in advance just to secure a reservation.
And she was offering three whole days? Even with extra payment, it couldn’t be bought—unless one had connections.
Hmm. Diana slowly leaned back against the seat and crossed her legs beneath her skirt.
Throughout his stay at Duke Schwarz’s estate, Helly had visited Carole’s tavern every day as if determined to bankrupt it, devouring every item on the menu.
And yet he still wasn’t satisfied. Should she call that impressive? She had underestimated Helly’s stomach. Well, she’d been generous.
“Kitchen of the Bank Queen. Five days, course by course.”
“Fine.”
Helly, dead serious about food, agreed without hesitation.
She’d have to contact the restaurant as soon as they returned.
Though it wasn’t her own establishment, it was run by someone she knew well—someone who always prioritized her requests above all others.
Helly knew this and shrewdly leveraged it as a bargaining chip.
“So, who is it?”
“Count Gordon Bruzer.”
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.”
