The Plan of the Terminally-Ill Wife's Divorce (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 140
I temporarily halted operations at the diamond mine and instructed the local laborers to disguise themselves as soldiers from the North and head to House Fosse.
I also sent word to Barbarossa in the North, telling him to go straight to the South and investigate the local situation.
〈Some ancient documents stored in the Grand Temple were damaged. What do you think was originally written on the missing pages?〉
Recalling Margarita’s words, I closed my eyes.
‘Right, it’s the North that needs cotton.’
It was a secret they went so far as to damage even the Grand Temple’s books to conceal completely. What I truly wanted from House Fosse now was the secret of the Holy Grail—but if Margarita’s words were true, Simmons would absolutely never reveal that to me.
‘Then I’ll just have to find out for myself.’
Several days after ending my conversation with Simmons, I met Kaitlyn—the very person I’d thought was erased from the family register and whom I’d never see again—on the day we’d agreed to depart together for House Fosse.
“Miss Kaitlyn!”
Simmons looked back and forth between Kaitlyn and me, clearly flustered about what to do. His attitude made it obvious he hadn’t secretly checked on her or taken care of her behind my back, which only left me more speechless.
Even if I could consider her a half-sister, Kaitlyn was her full-blooded younger sister—how could he show no concern at all when she’d vanished like that?
“Why are you looking at me like that? No matter your current status, she’s still your sister, so handle it yourself. Whether you show her kindness or cast her out—it’s entirely up to you and House Fosse.”
Leaving only those words behind, I boarded the carriage bound for the South.
[This is the timeline separator]
The South, which I hadn’t visited in a long time, was no longer the land I remembered. When the Viscount’s carriage passed by, the commoners didn’t stop their work or offer any sign of respect—they merely stared at our procession with blank faces, gripping their farming tools.
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.”
