The Ex-Husband Demands Reunion (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 122
The person who opened the door and entered was Duke Renoir.
He sat down on the nursing chair placed beside my bed.
“How are you feeling?”
“……”
“How am I feeling?” After trying to kill me.
I looked at my older brother, Blanc Bourbon Renoir, seated in the nursing chair.
Three weeks had passed, so my body had recovered somewhat. But even now, just thinking about that day made me shiver.
Cutting ties wouldn’t have been enough.
Yet I remained in Duke Renoir’s new mansion because there were still things left to discuss about possession and regression.
Seeing my narrowed eyes, my brother wiped away the cold sweat trickling down his face.
“No, really, I’m sorry. If it hadn’t been for that bastard Alexandre, I wouldn’t have been so confused. Father and I were truly desperate.”
Then he gave an awkward laugh.
“Um… you’ve gone through all the books I gave you, right?”
“……”
“It’s been three weeks—surely you’ve finished reading them by now…?”
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.”
