Strategic Marriage with the Mad Villain (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 27
Reus’s steady footsteps echoed through the empty corridor. Unlike his composed back, untouched by any sign of disturbance, silent fury twisted within his calm blue eyes.
[“It seems the Empress has played a trick at my daughter’s banquet. As you know, Iris hasn’t been in the Imperial Palace long and has no one to protect her. I could send someone myself, but… that would only pour oil on the Empress’s anger, wouldn’t it? So I’d like you, Reus, to quietly smooth things over.”]
He had been summoned aside by the Emperor during the banquet—surely it must be something important. Yet all he received was this absurd request to clean up after the Emperor’s daughter.
Reus suppressed the fresh wave of anger rising within him and kept walking.
In truth, his insides had been twisted ever since his earlier conversation with the Emperor that day.
[“Forget it. Isn’t it my fault for losing my dearest friend so young? Had Licasen been here, he’d have been the first to hear of my engagement…”]
The Emperor’s shameless words nearly made him burst out laughing outright.
How dare he bring up his father’s death so casually?
Reus halted briefly and tightly closed his eyes. The vile voice spilling from that mouth— the very mouth he longed to tear apart—kept replaying in his mind, along with the Emperor’s indifferent chatter about parting and guilt.
Alongside a deep sense of revulsion, Reus also felt a faint unease.
Though the Emperor had always used him for political convenience, just as he had with his father, it had been quite a while since the Emperor had summoned him personally for such trivial, meaningless tasks. What could possibly be behind this sudden shift?
‘…Has he caught wind of the treason?’
No. That would be jumping to conclusions too hastily.
The life he had led—rolling in the dirt as the Emperor’s loyal hound—had been so repulsively consistent, day after day, that even he himself had been fooled into believing it. Thus, it was only right that the Emperor still suspected nothing.
It was far more plausible that the Emperor had summoned him either as part of a premeditated scheme to send him away to the Silent Forest, or due to Count Yveler’s sheer incompetence—Reus couldn’t be certain which.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
