Sister of the Ranking 1st (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 115
To be precise, it was about finding the “Line 1 Lunatic.”
The term “Line 1 Lunatic” had become so entrenched as a proper noun that Seoul’s Line 1 was known for carrying all sorts of strange individuals. The idea had come to me from the thought that one of them was surely the Twilight Society.
Gabriel looked utterly baffled, as if wondering what on earth taking the subway had to do with gathering information. All day today, we’d scoured cafés, major roads, and even bustling evening districts in search of the Twilight Society, yet strangely, we hadn’t encountered that damn cultist.
Since Latte had sorted out the last Gate incident, I hadn’t gotten dragged into another Gate mishap.
“When I didn’t want it at all, I kept getting sucked into those damn S-rank Gates nonstop.”
Come to think of it, some of those past S-rank Gates had dragged me in when I was with Sin.
Damn it—he deliberately pulled me in.
As I cursed, recalling that smug face, the train soon arrived at the station. The moment the screen doors opened, a crowd poured out.
Gabriel, ever so considerate, quickly slipped inside first and secured a seat.
“Senior, there’s a seat over here…!”
“…No, I’m fine. Do you want to sit?”
“The girl’s pride is her sturdiness, so it’s quite alright!”
The problem was that the seat Gabriel had claimed was reserved for the elderly and disabled… Still, given how young Gabriel looked, it seemed acceptable for her to sit—but the little girl simply smiled brightly and insisted she was fine.
Contrary to my expectation that the subway would be nearly empty on a weekday afternoon, it was fairly crowded.
Though I’d worried someone might recognize Gabriel again, I decided it would be fine—she was dressed plainly, and her hair was now black.
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.”
