The Price is Everything of Yours (76 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 136
Although the likelihood of more hidden enemies was low, this was an incident in which Maindlant’s second-in-command had been ambushed alongside a distinguished guest. They needed to send a report as quickly as possible and receive instructions regarding their next move. If such an incident were to occur again in another city along their route, it would be disastrous.
Therefore, Neris decided to stay in Draicum for a few more days. She would draft a report and send it via messenger eagle, then await further instructions on what to do next.
While she was already here, she took the time to patiently listen to what the lord of Draicum wished to convey to the capital, handled tasks brought from White Swan Castle whenever she could, and made sure not to neglect her duties as host—all of which left her with barely enough time. In the end, she only managed to enter her bedroom at dawn once again.
“You’ll hardly get any sleep at this rate.”
Dora said with concern, even as she herself kept scanning the surroundings, wary of any further attacks. Neris smiled.
“You can rest well once we reach the capital. I’ll be fine, so you rest too.”
Though the words were easy to say, Neris would never have spoken them if she truly believed she could sleep soundly in a stranger’s castle filled with untrustworthy people.
She used those words only to appear strong in front of Dora. Understanding this, Dora gave a rare, gentle smile.
“Yes. I’ll have breakfast late, so please rest first.”
“Alright.”
Dora left the room. Neris lay down on the bed and sighed.
Not long after, someone knocked on the door.
It would be impolite to station guards openly in another lord’s castle, so no knights stood outside Neris’s door. Yet, it was certain someone was secretly watching over her.
Trusting Yayan had already confirmed the visitor’s identity, Neris asked calmly,
“What is it?”
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
Short intro:
What she can’t stand the most is the streets full of effeminate men, especially that so-called top beauty whom she avoids at all costs.
Shen Yaoxing looks at Jiang Mingyue, who keeps approaching her with coy shyness.
Shen Yaoxing: Bro, don’t be like this, I’m really about to throw up!
She fears nothing in heaven or earth, except for him getting close to her.
*
At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
This dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Mingyue, and he vowed to make her, like everyone else, fall at his feet in worship!

The male lead being so proud of his wife is honestly adorable, even when he gets jealous.
And the female lead is so elegant and beautiful—I can’t wait to see this scene illustrated
Haha, did the ML really just say that to the FL? He’s so cute when he gets a little jealous.
Can’t wait for next chapter
The ML is so considerate of his wife. He treats her with so much care and gentleness, even when she doesn’t say a word—he just understands her. He’s honestly so perfect, I can’t 😭
I really hope the FL can overcome these painful feelings soon. I can’t bear to watch her suffer this much. 💔
