The Ex-Husband Demands Reunion (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 47
“Since it’s the first contract, I included a groundbreaking price in my proposal. That means from the next contract onward, we’ll trade at whatever price I set. If you don’t like my offer, you’re free not to trade.”
At my explanation, Madame Hade smiled gently and personally wrote a special clause into the contract.
“Oh ho, that’s perfectly reasonable.”
Despite her prompt action, her expression revealed something she wanted to say.
‘There won’t be a second contract anyway—why go this far…?’
Having finished drafting the contract completely, Madame Hade brought her teacup to her lips.
She still had more to say, but seemed to be catching her breath, so I too savored my tea.
She resumed the conversation only after finishing her cup.
“But Countess, if you open your candle shop that large, you’ll have extra space left over… Wouldn’t it be better to consider other items as well?”
“Other items?”
“I have some premium goods that perfectly match your dignity as a countess.”
She quickly fetched a product list and showed it to me—it was indeed composed entirely of high-end items.
“Since there’s an extra distribution step, prices will be about 10% higher, but isn’t your store’s location exceptionally good? If you also carry our boutique’s products, you’re sure to earn a profit.”
Her words made sense. Still, I had no intention of accepting the proposal from a business partner who was stingy even over mere candles.
“A general store would be fine, but right now, I lack the competitiveness for it. I’ll gradually add other items later.”
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.”

I had over a thousand dresses. And just as many pairs of shoes.
A thousand dresses! I’ve never heard of this number. At best I thought she had at most a hundred dresses. 👗
“Countess, we’re truly lucky. This mermaid statue is now worth 1,000 gold coins.
Its price is a thousand coins, and that fraudster wants to buy it with two coins. ( ˶°ㅁ°) !!
a clear invitation for a kiss on the back of her hand.
Is this the shy girl? She looks too bold? She looks cunning.
