Kevrant Green was remembered as a cold and aloof man.
Apart from his last state filled with rage and despair, the Kevrant from his past life that Lishi knew was like the winds of the northern ice region.
However, at this moment, the Kev in front of Lishi was hotter than the summer sun.
Suddenly, Kev picked up Lishi.
“Ah!”
Unconsciously letting out a short scream, Lishi tightly clung to his neck as she was held by him like a princess.
This was her first time being held this way, so she was scared of the height.
“You’re quite active, Lishi.”
“You’re very playful, Kev. Put me down.”
“No.”
So, Kev walked towards his mansion while holding Lishi like that.
“What if someone sees us?”
“No one will find it suspicious whatever I do in my mansion, so rest assured, Lishi.”
“That’s not what I meant…”
“Are you feeling shy?”
Not wanting to admit she was shy because it felt like she was losing, Lishi firmly shut her mouth.
“If you say you’re embarrassed and shy, I’ll put you down, Lishi.”
“What could possibly be embarrassing or shy about whatever I do in my mansion?”
Kev laughed as if delighted.
“You’re right, Lishi.”
Kev did not point out that Lishi referred to this mansion as ‘my mansion’.
Finally, the tension left Lishi’s body.
Although Kev was tall, and the position where she was held was high, his chest was wide and his arms were firm. Kev would not let Lishi fall.
Kev carried Lishi into the bedroom and carefully placed her on the sofa. The sofa was still filled with Nathan’s clothes.
“Change into my robe, Lishi. I’ll call the tailor, so it would be best if you wear my robe and stay in this room until tomorrow.”
“Kev, I…”
“I’ll do the same.”
I’m not a plant in a greenhouse. Don’t think about handling me as you wish.
Her intended words were blocked by Kev’s words.
“I’ll also wear a robe and stay in this room all day. Then it’s fair, right?”
Lishi closed her mouth and looked up at him silently.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“It’s unexpected.”
“What is?”
“I thought we got married because of our positions, a strategic marriage.”
“Whatever prefix is attached, marriage is marriage, and the fact that you became my wife will not change. If you wanted a business relationship, let go of that hope, Lishi. Because I’m this kind of person.”
In fact, Kev wasn’t this kind of person.
Even Kev was surprised at his own attitude towards Lishi.
A single female, I need to leave my scent.
What nonsense was he saying?
If his subordinates heard it, they would have laughed their stomachs off and teased him for about 5 years.
‘But……’
Kev looked down at Lishi, who was sitting with a slightly displeased and somewhat joyous expression.
Her silver hair that reached down to her waist was tempting. Lishi, the flower of the Withlow Duke’s family, who effortlessly wore men’s clothes, brought pleasure to Kev.
He would have been more pleased if those clothes were his.
‘She’s an interesting woman.’
Kev liked interesting things. Lishi was an interesting opponent that Kev met after a long time. He didn’t dislike the change in himself, unlike his usual self, in front of Lishi.
“I’ll… change clothes.”
Lishi said after a while.
“Okay.”
“Don’t look.”
“But we’re a married couple?”
Lishi glared at Kev a little.
Even that looked cute to Kev.
“Alright, I won’t look.”
As Kev turned around, the sound of clothes rustling, stimulating Kev’s hearing, which was much better than others.
A peculiarly hot sensation gathered around his lower belly. Kev coughed to shake off the sound of undressing.
“I’ve changed.”
“Okay.”
“You should also change.”
“Alright. Ah, it’s okay for you to see me changing.”
“I won’t look.”
The stubborn words and the sight of her turning away made him laugh.
“I need a personal maid.”
While Kev was changing clothes, Lishi said.
“Someone born from a good family, welleducated, and has a heavy mouth would be good.”
“I’ll tell it to Jaimie.”
“And in a few days, probably the Viscount of Alford Hutchis will come.”
Alford Hutchis Viscount? Who was that?
He recalled it was the man who tried to marry Lishi late.
“That man is looking for me?”
“Or me.”
Even when Kev, who had changed his robe, turned around, Lishi still had her back to him.
“I’ve changed too, Lishi.”
Lisi wondered if Kevrant had lied, turning her head slightly to check if she had dressed properly before turning around.
She had her hands neatly gathered in front of her thighs, a posture that seemed strangely arrogant when Lisi did it.
“Why is Alford Hutchis looking for me, or you?”
“He will probably not acknowledge our marriage, and ask me to leave. He might even act rudely and refuse to leave until I do.”
“Hmm. You seem to know him well, even though you’ve never met him.”
“I know a lot.”
As Lisi pointed to the sofa, Kevrant unconsciously cleared a pile of Nathan’s clothes to make room for her.
Lisi sat down in the empty space without thanking Kevrant, as if it were a matter of course for him to do so.
“What should I do with that man, Lisi? Should I cut his throat so he never appears before you again?”
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.”
