Now, she knew that the only man who could transmit this warm body temperature was K.
His warm lips overlapped with Lishi’s lips once again, and every time felt new.
His hand, trailing down her arm, wrapped around Lishi’s waist and teasingly moved upward.
His touch and moist breath tantalizingly stimulated Lishi.
Closing her eyes, Lishi welcomed him with her whole body.
A layer of clothing slipped off, and their skins brushed against each other.
Despite her attempt to endure the embarrassment caused by her hurried breath, it was in vain.
As he became warmer, so did Lishi, and her breathing became rougher.
During the sensation of feeling like hundreds of butterflies fluttering, Randy disappeared from Lishi’s mind several times.
After a while, the two were lying closely together under the blanket on the bed.
K caressed Lishi’s head and whispered.
“Lishi, as a celebration for me becoming a duke, give me a present.”
“Yeah, what do you want?”
Feeling lethargic all over her body, Lishi asked lazily.
K brought his lips close to Lishi’s ear and said.
“Let’s take a bath together, Lishi.”
She woke up.
+++
K had a plump expression all morning.
A festival celebrating K becoming a duke was held for three days starting today. It was a festival prepared to coincide with K’s return date.
Guests who had already received invitations had arrived at Dacote City, and the Marquis and Marquise, Zen, and Eldy were also expected to arrive today.
Not only the Crown Prince Iovet and the Second Prince Lacojen of the Gavizar Empire, but also envoys and royalty from various countries, including the Eort Kingdom, Sharkran Kingdom, and Alor Kingdom, had come.
Everyone, including the excited employees, was bustling around, but only K looked chubby.
Jamie, who was choosing K’s party dress, spoke up.
“Captain, if you look so gloomy on a day like today, it will irritate the guests, including the duchess, and even me, who worked hard to prepare for today.”
“Yeah, Captain. Why is your expression like that?”
Nathan, who was sitting on the table and watching with his butt hanging over the edge, also interrupted Jamie.
“Nathan, there’s a chair right in front of you. Must you sit there?”
“Stop aiming your annoyance at me for no reason. You became a duke, probably even received a marquisate from the Gavizar Empire, and yet why is the captain’s expression like that? Did you eat a bug in your sleep?”
“Because Lishi and I took a bath together…”
Bang!
Before K could finish his sentence, Jamie punched K’s arm.
“Jamie, I’m your captain!”
“Don’t need to tell me. A captain who utters unnecessary words is not needed, right?”
“…It’s a big problem.”
“Only for a fool like you.”
“Nathan. I don’t want to be bothered to put on the uniform for a fool. You do it yourself.”
“I don’t want to put on the captain’s uniform either. Wear it yourself. Don’t you have hands?”
“I was thinking the same.”
K grumbled as he put on his clothes.
“Captain, there’s a saying that if you fall in love, you become a fool.”
“Huh.”
“By the way, did you know? Captain has been a bit of a fool even before falling in love.”
“Nathan.”
“Noble ladies might think that the captain is very silent, dignified, cool, and… well, they might know. Fortunately, those ladies can’t see the captain in this state. Captain, be forever grateful to your sister-in-law. She’s living with you even though she knows you’re a fool.”
“Nathan, just go away.”
“Oh, really? I know a good way for the captain and sister-in-law to bathe together.”
K, who was putting on his jacket, stopped moving.
“What is it?”
“Give me a gun. One with a good gemstone embedded in it.”
“Fine, just tell me.”
Smirking, Nathan raised his index finger.
“The captain has one.”
“What?”
“A wolf.”
+++
Dacote City was bustling with crowds for the festival.
The entire Dacote City, which was quite spacious, was splendidly decorated.
No matter which restaurant you entered, meals were provided for free, and a buffet was set up in the square.
A poet sang songs, and a clown performed.
Street vendors gave away flowers, animal-shaped toys, and monster toys to children for free, while adults received baskets filled with fruits or bread.
All the costs of the festival were covered by Duke Green.
The poor commoners were praising the Green Duke family extravagantly, as it was their first time experiencing such a luxurious festival and being treated so well.
In the evening, Duke Green and his wife personally came out to the city and enjoyed the festival with the commoners.
As it became late at night, fireworks made of a well-mixed combination of gems and gunpowder adorned the sky beautifully.
The commoners stared at the blooming flames in the sky, pledging to be loyal to Duke Green and his wife for the rest of their lives.
And so, everyone fell asleep soaked in happiness, on the first night of the festival.
As a wolf, K, who had transformed, spoke seriously to Lishi.
“Lishi, wolves need a bath.”
+++
K explained.
“Even in the form of a wolf, I need to take a bath separately. But it’s hard to do it alone, so I need help.”
Watching K explaining earnestly, Lishi stared at him with clenched fists.
“Really.”
Lishi didn’t respond, and K said with a cheeky smile.
“Okay. Let’s call Eldy.”
“…Why do you need to call Eldy, Lishi?”
“Oh, really? I know a good way for you and your sister-in-law to bathe together.”
K, who was putting on his jacket, stopped moving.
“What is it?”
“Give me a gun. One with a good gemstone embedded in it.”
“Fine, just tell me.”
Smirking, Nathan raised his index finger.
“The captain has one.”
“What?”
“A wolf.”
+++
K quickly got up and placed both front paws on Lishi’s shoulders.
“Lishi, Jamie is ferocious.”
“Really? She was kind to me.”
“She’s ferocious. And not good at grooming. Last time, while brushing Nathan’s fur, she pulled out more than half of it. She’s a scary one.”
“Then it’s not good. You shouldn’t become bald like you.”
The black wolf nodded.
“Alright. Then I guess I have to do it.”
The black wolf’s mouth opened with a smirk.
Lishi tapped the sharp fangs of the wolf with his index finger.
“Not in the mansion’s bathhouse.”
“Huh?”
“We can’t clog the sewer with shed fur.”
“…Lishi, I don’t shed that much fur…”
“You do. You drop fur every time and make Erwel suspicious.”
“No, I…”
“Let’s go out. I’ll take you to the lake and clean you thoroughly.”
Upon hearing Lishi’s words, K pondered for a moment.
“In every nook and cranny, huh… Not a bad idea.”
Muttering to himself, K lowered his front paws from Lishi’s shoulders.
With a splash, Lishi opened the door.
As K was about to transform into human form and go out, he said, “Wait a moment.” At that moment, the person standing in front of Lishi’s door opened their eyes wide.
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
