The Only Healer, Ruela (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 22
“How fascinating.”
“Does this mean my value has just gone up even more?”
When Ruela flashed a confident smile, Kite shook his head helplessly.
“Judging by that wicked grin, you must be in an exceptionally good mood.”
“Of course! I’m the one and only healer, and I even possess an incredible secret technique no one else can touch. What’s there to fear? Maybe I could even overthrow the King of Kuran and become queen myself!”
“That won’t happen. Don’t forget—I came here to restore Kuran as Helane’s territory. Instead, I’ll grant you the title of Duke of Kuran.”
“The title of Duke?”
“Yes. What do you think? Tempting enough?”
She couldn’t tell if he was joking or not, but for Ruela, stranded alone in this place, even an offer this generous felt undeservedly kind.
Since she might as well dream big, she decided to believe his words were genuine.
“Naturally. Just freeing me from this helpless situation caused by Guildmaster Balder is already a huge favor—let alone offering me a dukedom! I’ll do my best to support you.”
Of course, she’d first need to win over the Duke of Kuran to save her own life, but she’d already accepted that as a given. With that settled, her motivation became crystal clear. Everything seemed like it would go smoothly from here.
But just as she let her guard down, something brushed past her neck—as if someone were warning her.
It was at that chilling premonition that Ruela froze.
“Who’s there?”
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.”

What is this? This is slavery, not a kingdom. People have no freedom whatsoever; they can even dictate how often they use the bathroom. How outrageous! It’s truly suffocating. How can people live in a place like this? It’s utterly disgusting.
