Seducing the Tyrant Instead of My Favorite (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 90
“You couldn’t wait for Niky and tried sneaking a peek at the secret, didn’t you? Conspiring with that priest named Arkansas.”
He thrust the copper monocle right in front of my face, as if to show off.
It swayed gently, like dangling a delicious bait.
“What do you think would happen if Niky found out about this?”
“…….”
“He’d probably shudder with betrayal. What’s your take?”
His voice, dripping with triumph, churned my insides.
“Who are you?”
“You charged in without even knowing that? You act so clever all by yourself—tsk, tsk.”
He clicked his tongue, sounding thoroughly disappointed.
I had no intention of falling for such cheap provocation.
“Do I really need to know every worthless beast like you?”
I crossed my arms and pulled the corners of my mouth upward.
His right eyebrow twitched.
He soon burst into laughter, though.
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.”

Hahaha, they’re truly innocent, Nicholas and Elizabeth. What’s with this priest? Why is everyone trying to separate them?
What is this, Nikolai? You should ask for her hand and confess.
What a shameless Nicholas! Why does he always want to restrain her? If she becomes a saint, she will have greater power, and those vile nobles will not underestimate her.
