The Plan of the Terminally-Ill Wife's Divorce (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 65
“Be careful. If you’re going to be cautious once, be cautious twice. Above all, never leave my side—not even for a moment. Anette, you sometimes have absolutely no fear at all.”
“Am I a child or something?”
“Sometimes you’re even more reckless than a child, Lady Fosse.”
Darius stuck close to my side, his expression unusually stern.
Whether out of shame or secrecy, the hidden northern slave market—a notorious local attraction—was being held far from the Harvest Festival grounds, though it wasn’t even nighttime yet.
“People who buy and sell humans can’t possibly be decent.”
We wore plain black cloaks to conceal our identities and half-masks to hide our eyes. In our haste, we hadn’t adorned ourselves with any insignia of the Grand Duke Inkheart’s house; our attire was merely decent quality, lacking the usual aristocratic flair.
‘Actually, that’s perfect. We look exactly like wealthy buyers coming to purchase slaves personally.’
Yet despite hiding our appearance and even carrying weapons, our attire seemed to invite mockery from those around us in the slave market.
“Whew! Are you the seller or the buyer? If you’re short on cash, I’ll chip in a bit—on one condition: your pretty companion there must let go of her master’s hand and step right up onto the stage! How about it?”
“I see exactly why you told me to be careful, so take your hand off your scabbard. You’re not about to start swinging it already, are you?”
Darius glared at the man who’d mocked us, his eyes still sharp and unrelenting.
“What’s wrong? Did you memorize that I’m bald and pot-bellied? Want me to settle this properly with you later?”
“Yes.”
“That doesn’t sound like a joke.”
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.”

How vile is human greed! What did they do to deserve being captured, treated like this, and sold?
How vile, despicable, scum of the earth, not even worthy of recycling.
Seizing opportunities means using them to get them to work.
