The Terminally-Ill Duke Clings to Me Every Night (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 115
Leah looked up from the paper she had been scribbling on, noticing the sky outside stained crimson by the setting sun.
Beyond the window, the sun had already begun to set.
True to its northern location, Biaritzkal’s winter days were shorter than those in the capital.
‘I didn’t even realize how time flew.’
It had already been a month since she left the capital and settled in Biaritzkal.
She had come hoping that immersing herself in establishing a medical institution might help her forget painful memories. Yet, even while devoting herself fully to work, the moment a brief pause appeared, she inevitably thought of him.
‘Akia…’
Leah closed her eyes, memories of the past two months naturally overlapping in her mind.
The wedding she had believed would be filled with blessings had collapsed entirely from a single word spoken by the Emperor.
The moment she learned that her own biological father—whom she had never even seen—was the very person who had killed the mother of the man she loved.
Leah had no choice but to give up everything—the wedding, and staying by Akia’s side.
Honestly, she wanted to say that a father she’d never met had nothing to do with her. But…
‘That just wasn’t possible.’
Because she knew better than anyone how deeply the Former Empress’s death had wounded Akia’s heart.
She couldn’t remain by Akia’s side, knowing he could only see his mother in her.
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.”
