The Beloved Youngest Daughter of the Lord Family - Chapter 47
“Really? That’s news to me.”
“You’ve always been holed up either on the battlefield or in your laboratory, so how could you possibly know?”
Walter’s ensuing explanation went roughly as follows.
Somewhere on the continent existed a clan that specialized solely in assassination. They relied more on physical combat than magic and wielded a peculiar art distinct from magical energy.
This aligned perfectly with the recent incident, especially their reputed ability to evade detection by mages.
“They’re not as rare as Benian, but that assassin clan is still known to be extremely few in number. It’ll take a long time to trace their tracks.”
“Then what should we do?”
“We’ll narrow our investigation to those who could easily hire such individuals. It won’t be easy, but the number of suspects won’t be that large.”
Sione and Walter exchanged words for a while, discussing the direction of their future investigation.
Their conversation revolved entirely around work, yet merely being in her presence made Walter’s heart race.
‘How long has it been since we’ve spent time alone like this?’
Ever since Sione had declared her intention to go to Rose Palace, they hadn’t spoken at length like this.
And that wasn’t all.
After his clumsy first confession ended in failure, he’d even resolved never to see her again, hoping to soothe his wounded heart.
Yet now, after weathering those painful times, they were naturally conversing together in the same space once more.
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.”
This is a very mean place to stop
