Strategic Marriage with the Mad Villain (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 22
He wasn’t just cursing—he even had the habit of repeating the same words over and over.
Reus had no interest in humoring drunkards, so he didn’t bother replying.
Then, almost immediately, he felt a round head thump lightly against his shoulder, as if giving up. Just when he thought things had finally quieted down, a small hand soon began fumbling over his thick neck.
It was the touch of a child who’d just found a favorite toy.
“Warm… so warm….”
“Roel, that hand—”
“I want to take you to my room…”
Her delicate fingers tickling his bare skin were too distracting, yet speaking plainly did nothing. Roel looked as if even lifting her eyelids was a struggle amid her drowsy haze. How could she possibly hear him when she didn’t even know what she was touching?
Reus let out a sigh and resumed walking.
“And I also have to eat ice cream… and take this with me too… something warm…”
Reus casually ignored her tiresome ice cream talk and tried to lay Roel down on the bed. But just as she’d been quietly clinging to him, touching only his neck until now, Roel suddenly pulled Reus tightly into an embrace.
“Ahh! I’m not sleeping… I’m not going to sleep….”
Because of that, Reus froze completely on the spot like a stone statue.
Roel’s body pressed flush against his chest, exposed beneath his robe.
And to make matters worse, the thin slip she wore rendered every sensation against his bare skin painfully vivid.

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.”
