The magical engineering weapon resonated with a humming sound and flew at a rapid speed.
I had chosen a weapon that was a downsized version of a cannon. It was larger than K39, making it difficult to carry, but I was confident in its firepower.
“Tanashee…!”
Ascan urgently called me, but my hand was already on the trigger.
Boom!
A powerful flame erupted towards the mansion’s wall in the middle of the night.
Although the intruders could be subdued in an instant, due to the overwhelming power, parts of the mansion might collapse.
Ascan urgently summoned unextinguishable flames to block the fire I unleashed.
Thus, two flames clashed in the air, creating a flash like midday.
Crack!
The firepower of the magical engineering weapon couldn’t overcome Ascan’s unextinguishable flames. However, the flame I unleashed deviated its direction, sweeping near the wall.
As a result, there were scorched marks around the mansion.
The startled intruders quickly took cover from my attack. As Ascan, who had reflexively tried to chase after them, saw my face, he stopped.
With an expression that seemed unable to stop me, he said,
“Using magical engineering weapons while drunk like this, who would try to stop you?”
“You, it’s you.”
As I swayed in a good mood from the alcohol, Ascan looked at me incredulously. However, there was a faint smile on his lips.
Looking at me, Ascan spoke in a lower voice than before,
“Then, let’s drink only with me from now on. It won’t work with anyone else.”
“Sure.”
“If you can’t remember, I’ll take care of it.”
At that moment, the people who seemed to have awakened from their sleep inside the mansion due to the flash a while ago appeared.
When Bishop urgently ran over from the entrance, Ascan said in a subdued voice,
“Bring the hangover remedy.”
“Ah, yes, master.”
I leaned on Ascan. I was exhausted from the recent running, and he seemed worried about separating me from his side.
As we stood still, a sudden thought crossed my mind. It was the expression Ascan had when he looked at me during dinner with Helsion.
“Earlier, because the emperor proposed to me, were you jealous?”
“I don’t understand what you’re saying.”
“Tell me honestly.”
As I shook Ascan’s arms and persisted, his expression suddenly changed. Pupils, as if made of moonlight, glowed in the darkness.
Looking down at me with a somewhat serious expression, he said,
“…If I admit it, do you have the confidence to handle it?”
Though I was intoxicated, I wanted to ask what I needed to handle, but unfortunately, footsteps approaching from Bishop were heard.
After receiving the remedy from Bishop, Ascan, holding it, said quietly,
“Take the medicine.”
I shook my head stubbornly and said persistently,
“Finish what you were saying first.”
“Take this first.”
“I don’t want it.”
Holding the medicine in his hand, Ascan looked down at me and opened his mouth.
“Tanasia, open your mouth.”
His serious gaze as he looked down at me caught my eye.
It was exquisite. Whether Ascan was a boy ten years ago or the adult Ascan now, both were perfectly to my taste.
His well-shaped forehead, sculpted nose, and elegant jawline were captivating as I gazed at them.
“Tanasia.”
Upon hearing my name being called again, I pulled Ascan’s neck and our lips met.
My lips firmly touched his before parting. Strangely, there seemed to be a fragrant scent coming from him like a flower.
I looked at the bewildered Ascan and smiled coyly.
“Do you really want me to open my mouth?”
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
