The Price is Everything of Yours (76 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 116
It was late evening.
Neris, on her way back to the West Palace, stopped at the sound of someone calling her from behind. It was a kind, cheerful voice that somehow felt instantly familiar and warm to the listener.
“Advisor!”
Catherine Haricot approached Neris with a bright smile as she turned around. Her steps were light and cheerful, as if she had just run into a close friend by chance on the street.
Neris took in Catherine at a glance. The sky-blue woolen dress and the pretty hat adorned with a small fur pompon suited her build perfectly, and her face bore makeup that was clearly carefully applied yet not overly flashy.
By Neris’s standards—knowing the capital’s high society more than ten years into the future—it looked slightly unfashionable, yet undeniably radiant to anyone’s eyes, especially thanks to her bright smile.
They were in the main palace’s first-floor hall, close to the door leading to the West Palace—a place where Catherine had no reason to appear. Neris asked politely with a faint smile.
“What brings you here, Miss Haricot?”
“Oh, nothing in particular! I was just returning from a stroll, and when I saw you, I was so delighted I simply had to come say hello.”
“You took a walk alone in the dark?”
Since winter had begun, daylight in Maindlant had been vanishing in the blink of an eye. By this hour—around dinner time—it was nearly as dark as midnight.
Regardless of how insignificant House Haricot might have seemed in Neris’s previous life—so much so she’d never even heard of them—Catherine was currently staying in this palace as a relative of Marquis Tipian. Was it really appropriate for a young lady like her to wander around alone at such an hour?
Yet even after Neris’s pointed remark, Catherine’s smile didn’t falter in the slightest. Instead, she replied even more cheerfully.
“So what if I did? I enjoy walking alone. Night air feels wonderful, doesn’t it?”
“Aren’t you cold?”
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
