The White Stoat Princess (5 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 72
There were quite a few attendants in the palace. Yet not a single one made a sound or met my eyes.
‘They must have been thoroughly trained in advance.’
After all, this was Espen—the one who, upon arriving in the capital, immediately moved me alone to this place. It would have been stranger if he weren’t prepared.
As I entered the room, it was filled with every kind of flower. Though beautifully decorated—neat yet vibrant—the sight reminded me of the bouquet he’d once given me, leaving a bitter taste in my mouth.
‘Why is he so obsessed with flowers?’
Did I ever say even once that I liked flowers?
An attendant approached me as I stood frowning and spoke in a polite tone.
“Please change your clothes.”
“Clothes?”
“The ones we prepared in advance are here; if you prefer something else, they’re over there.”
Following where the attendant pointed, I saw one entire wall covered with garments.
Out of curiosity, I pulled out a piece and held it against myself, then flung it away as if it were an insect.
“What is this? It’s disgusting.”
How did they know my measurements to stock so many clothes that fit me perfectly? It felt as though they’d been specially made just for me. Yet the sheer quantity suggested they couldn’t have been prepared only since my arrival in the capital.
‘Whether gathered hastily or accumulated over years, it’s equally unnerving.’

After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
