The Princess Wants to Live (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 90
If Olivia hadn’t been watching, he would have wanted to grab him by the throat and throw him across the room immediately.
“Hmm, I guess it really is impossible.”
Unaware of Cryer’s biased judgment, Olivia nodded obediently, and Keslan lost all color from his face as if he’d just witnessed the heavens collapse.
After all, he’d blatantly exposed his inadequacy right before Her Highness the Princess.
But naturally, Olivia had interpreted Cryer’s answer in a completely different way than Keslan had, and thus responded with an entirely different meaning.
From the start, the intent behind her question “What do you think?” had simply been to ask whether there was even the faintest hint—no more than a chick’s tear—of potential to counter “magic,” so her interpretation was perfectly reasonable.
Having confirmed everything she needed, Olivia gave Keslan a crisp nod.
“I called you over briefly because I had something to verify. You may return to your post now.”
Keslan, once again obeying the command with reflexive precision, barely kept his blurred vision in focus as he bowed with ruler-straight accuracy and exited the office with disciplined steps.
The moment he disappeared, leaving only the two of them, Cryer immediately spoke.
“Do you ever meet knights privately?”
Though the question came out of nowhere, Olivia paid it little mind and answered while shuffling through documents.
“Hmm? Well, they do accompany me to private places since they’re my guards, but as for meeting them privately on my own… I’m not really sure. Still, it probably happens sometimes, right? There aren’t records of knights fleeing into exile with diplomats, but short little flings… you know…”
Her answer, flowing as naturally as water, had been based on the assumption that “Greta” was the one meeting knights privately, so Cryer shook his head.
“No, I don’t care whether you meet knights or not.”
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.”
