The Dark Lord Obsesses Over His Fake Wife (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 22
“The Crown Prince is exhausting just to think about…”
He was the one who’d given me unimaginable scandals and trials. The mere thought of getting tangled up with him again was unbearable.
“But what are the chances we’ll even meet at the masquerade ball?”
I recalled the date of the masquerade in my mind. There were still a few days left.
“I’ll just deal with it when the time comes, right?”
Exhausted, I collapsed onto my bed the moment I entered my room and fell into a deep sleep. I woke up several days later.
When I opened my eyes, Johan was right in front of me.
“My lady? Are you awake?”
Thankfully, I hadn’t had any dreams this time, so I could simply enjoy gazing at his flustered expression.
“What happened to me?”
For some reason, my voice came out slightly hoarse.
“What happened?”
Johan clenched his teeth. His gaze was deeply troubled.
“You didn’t wake up for a full three days.”
“Did I really sleep that long?”
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.”
Leandro sees himself as a chivalrous knight who will save even the wicked and bring them back to their senses. Arrogant.
What is valuable? An arrogant fiancé abandoned her.
Love works wonders. Johan is still unaware of his true feelings.
