The next morning.
The saint’s congratulatory party starts in the evening.
However, the children’s time was busy from the morning.
Bang! The door opened, and a nimble body like a squirrel leaped onto the bed.
“Eilin, wake up!”
“…Lord Louis?”
Still half-asleep, I opened my eyes, and there was Louis’s face right in front of my nose.
‘Like a puppy…’
He was like a dog that demands breakfast from its owner on weekends.
While I blinked my eyes in confusion, Kasha’s hand grabbed Louis by the backside.
“Little one.”
“Ung, let go of this!”
“Do you think adults would just sit around?”
“It’s morning, so they probably slept in!”
“Hmph…”
Kasha let out a hollow laugh.
When he put Louis down outside the bed, the child’s cheeks puffed up like a candy being bitten.
I saw this scene and immediately tried to get up but stopped short and flipped the blanket.
“Eilin, what’s wrong?”
“Oh, it’s nothing!”
In a rush, as I fumbled with my body, I felt the fabric.
‘Clothes… I’m wearing them, right?’
I could only be relieved after checking everything hanging on my body.
‘Ugh… after what happened yesterday.’
All the strength drained from my body.
Between the steps of undressing and dressing.
The middle stage of this process always required begging to be completed.
The whole process was carried out by a single person’s mischief.
But yesterday, not even begging worked.
‘Because you’re too beautiful.’
‘I can’t let you go to the party. Those kids will be all over you…’
‘Don’t say such things… Ugh!’
A person who was serious just a while ago!
‘That’s one thing, and this is another.’
Before Kasha spoke, I didn’t know these words would be used here.
‘I tried to think deeply about it.’
From the possessor to the story of Empress Viviana.
All night, I pondered over who was causing the grief and loneliness.
It seemed that comforting him led to a swallowed sigh.
‘A flat-out lie.’
Serious words were all fabricated.
‘A room is a room, and a bed is a bed. What’s the difference!’
His palace in the imperial city.
And the bed used only by Kasha.
That was the point he emphasized.
“You’re a fool, brother! Give me back my Eilin!”
“Little one. Tell us what we did yesterday.”
I fully woke up.
I quickly sat up and blocked Kasha’s mouth before he could say something to Louis.
“Ah, haha. Good morning, Lord Louis.”
“Hmm? Yeah. But why are you blocking your brother’s mouth?”
“Oh, I’m just trying to prevent Lord Louis from hearing bad words from my brother in the morning.”
“…Is that so?! Eilin is the only one who understands me!”
Louis bounced onto the bed and burrowed into my arms.
“You…”
Kasha’s eyes narrowed.
Just before he could say something to Louis, I whispered to him so that only he could hear.
‘If you say a word, I’ll clean each room until we leave the palace.’
It was almost said like a smile, but it was enough to shut his mouth.
It was a hectic morning.
I could only sigh as I managed to pet Louis’s head.
“Louise, why are you so excited from the morning?”
“It feels like we’re on a trip!”
The cheeks of the child, excited since the morning, were beautifully flushed.
‘It seems like yesterday was really fun.’
Judging from the series of experiences, Louise liked parties, festivals, and such very much.
“Do you like it here?”
“Yes, the people are friendly, and there are many fun friends! Did you receive a lot of compliments too?”
The little gentleman’s satisfaction level was 100%.
“Then, little one, you can live here.”
“No! I’ll live with Eilin!”
Kasha interrupted the soft conversation.
I smiled widely and hugged Louise.
“Louise, how about sleeping with me tonight?”
“…Really? Can I?!”
“Of course. Let’s sleep together for a long time.”
“I’m excited! It’s just you and me sleeping, excluding Evan, right?”
Yes, yes. I couldn’t resist Louise’s teasing, so I slipped out of bed.
“Shall we go have breakfast now?”
“Okay! Evan and Michael hyung have already gone down to the dining room.”
I held Louise’s hand and walked out into the corridor.
Kasha was seen through the open door. He was still leaning against the headboard of the bed.
“Why aren’t you coming?”
“…It’s awkward for me to become younger.”
“Huh? Why are you saying that when we’re going to have breakfast?”
Kasha brushed his bangs aside.
In the moment when his handsome figure sparkled in the sunlight.
“My fiancée likes younger guys too much.”
“…That’s not true!”
What a strange thing to say again since the morning when I said something.
I distanced myself from the bedroom, pinching Louise’s side.
“Aren’t you coming with us?”
“You’ll come up by yourself. You’re an adult.”
“Right. Even though you’re an adult, you act so childish sometimes!”
It sounded like they were gossiping, but today, I agreed with Louise’s words.
While chatting like that, we had already arrived at the dining room.
“Have you come?”
“You’re here?”
Michael and Evan were already in the middle of their meal.
“Yeah, I brought him with me!”
“Well done. Our Louise.”
“Don’t praise me too much, hyung.”
“I did well!”
Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!
――
This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”
