The Duke Stole Everything (1 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 37
The old log cabin’s kitchen had no hearth.
Instead, there was a fireplace in the living room.
The fireplace, tucked into a corner, had been left unused for so long that dust, cobwebs, and dried herbs cluttered it messily.
[The wind is picking up. I should probably clean it beforehand.]
Ren had discovered the fireplace too late, but without Sharti’s permission, he couldn’t touch it, so he had quietly tidied the area around it in the meantime.
[…She doesn’t even glance toward the fireplace. It must be even colder here in the mountains—why doesn’t she use it?]
Contrary to Ren’s expectations, however, whether on days of strong wind or rainy nights, Sharti continued to ignore the fireplace entirely.
Just as Ren was about to ask her why, he suddenly realized.
[Could it be because she has no firewood to burn?]
It wouldn’t be easy for a woman alone to chop firewood.
Moreover, the entire log cabin was so old that a stray ember could easily start a dangerous fire.
[So she simply gave up and lived without it.]
From what Ren had observed so far, Sharti tended to endure any hardship in daily life as long as it wasn’t a major inconvenience.
She owned few household items, and herbs dominated most of her life. Her wardrobe held mostly robes, and her small dressing table contained only practical items like sewing tools and scissors.
Sharti showed no trace of material desire.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
Intro
As an enchantress, Su Heng possesses captivating eyes and charming beauty, easily manipulating the joys and sorrows of living beings at her fingertips.
But to enchant a god, making him taste the bitterness of love’s separation, long-lasting resentment, unattainable desires, and inability to let go…
Do you dare?
Su Heng assists a divine lord in his cultivation, aiming to make him experience all the sufferings of love, so that he can attain the Great Dao.
Only after being chased down from the heavens by the divine lord, confined and completely possessed by him, does she realize how successful she has been.
The once gentle and polite youth has transformed into someone she no longer recognizes.
