Stop Coming On to Me (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 65
Agael had no choice but to send escort warships whenever it imported iron ore from Smailan, because the sea they had to cross was the notoriously lawless open ocean.
From Smailan’s perspective, it was only natural to demand free protection by attaching their own ordinary merchant vessels to those escort warships, in exchange for selling iron ore they didn’t necessarily need to sell.
But once the pirates disappeared, the need for escort warships vanished as well.
Smailan had no regrets about halting iron ore exports, whereas Agael, having lost Amata’s iron supply, was as good as having fire dropped onto its feet.
Thus, Smailan must have drastically raised the price of iron ore or added other conditions, ultimately causing the trade deal to collapse.
Therefore, the root of all these events was Prince Kaidel, who had eliminated the pirates in the open ocean.
“So, it really is your fault, isn’t it, Your Highness?”
Prince Kaidel looked flustered for a moment, thought briefly, then answered firmly.
“That is due to His Highness Greyan. I shall boldly shift the blame.”
“Ha….”
I barely managed to suppress an incredulous, almost mocking laugh.
Then, narrowing my eyes slightly, I asked,
“You couldn’t possibly have foreseen this far ahead when you acted, could you?”
“Hm-hm.”
Prince Kaidel avoided my gaze and cleared his throat. Yet his mouth, hidden behind his fist, was clearly smiling.
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.”
