Stolen Crown Princess (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 22
Click clack, she stepped forward. Her toes trembled, and her legs wobbled precariously.
Each time, the man’s interlocked hand tightened, firmly supporting her.
“Huh….”
Ibelia exhaled a deep breath without realizing it. An indescribable tension surged over her.
It wasn’t her first time attending a party, yet her heart fluttered like a debutante on the eve of her coming-out. Ironically, it was because she held the hand of the man she’d longed for her entire life.
“You’re very nervous.”
His gentle voice suddenly pierced into her ear.
Ibelia lifted her head to look at him. Unlike her, he appeared perfectly calm despite holding her hand.
Though that annoyed her somewhat, she also felt relieved that at least one of them remained composed. Her complex emotions leaked plainly through the silence.
“…It’s my first time entering the banquet hall with Your Highness.”
“So you’re worried?”
“Worried… me?”
“For instance, the stares you’ll surely draw—from Mother and Lellia, and her close friends.”
Ibelia’s pupils quivered faintly. The Empress and Lellia—merely mentioning them brought a wave of strong aversion, as if she were already facing them.

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.”
