“Ordinary people, when asked what Lenisha desires, some wished for revenge, some for movies, and yet others for power. There was no one like Cassius, wishing for something simple and precious. Lenisha also grew up freely under her parents’ vast love. Lenisha’s world was confined to the mansion, but within it, she had been a princess, a queen, and even a bird. Lenisha knew the preciousness of family. Cassius was wishing for something heavier and more precious than anything in the world from Lenisha.
“I didn’t mean to burden you. It’s okay not now, even after fulfilling all of Lenisha’s wishes.”
Lenisha gazed at Cassius with a calm look.
Since when? That couldn’t be guaranteed.
At some point, Cassius had become the person Lenisha feared the most.
Cautious and affectionate.
Cassius didn’t want to be a burden to Lenisha, nor did he want to hurt her.
He couldn’t expect anything from her but instead hoped Lenisha would rely on him.
Lenisha also knew the name of the emotion attached to that.
Love.
Cassius was in love with Lenisha.
Perhaps Lenisha had sensed it long before Cassius.
Cassius disliked Lenisha being with Meteo and mentioning Lexus’s name.
Cassius wanted to be a person more valuable to Lenisha than those men.
“Lenisha, whatever your answer is…”
“Do that.”
Lenisha once again cut off Cassius’s words.
“If there’s someone I can comfortably rely on, it would be you. If I ever form a family with someone and have a child, it will all be with you.”
“Lenisha…”
Cassius covered his lips with his palm.
“I will do as you wish.”
Lenisha had practically allowed Cassius’s confession.
Would that honest man know that?
Lenisha sipped the espresso that had cooled.
The espresso Cassius couldn’t drink, swayed gently like it had absorbed the spring breeze as Lenisha pushed it towards him.
Lenisha’s eye corners curved.
“Does this mean Lenisha has arrived at the capital?”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
The exhausted courtier bowed his head.
The courtiers, who were being called every hour by Lexis to ask when Lenisha would arrive, were not in a reverent mood and wanted to take a sleeping pill in the emperor’s food.
And finally, Lenisha, whom Lexus had longed for, had arrived.
“Where is Lenisha now? Did she arrive before Count Kalleott? She must have received the gifts I sent. Is she staying in the mansion I arranged for her right now?”
“…No, Your Majesty. Currently, Lady Lenisha is staying at the Cassius Palace, Your Grace’s mansion.”
“Isn’t that obvious? They are a married couple.”
The courtier swallowed the words he wanted to say.
Lexus’s face stiffened coldly.
“Did that guy come along too?”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
There was no need to hide what would eventually be revealed.
The courtier laid out all the facts he knew.
Stories of Lenisha arriving in the capital and enjoying a date with Cassius, people seeing them as a well-matched couple, and similar tales.
Lexus pondered over those stories.
Lenisha laughing like a child, the two holding hands affectionately while walking down the street, witnessing Lenisha and Cassius entering the mansion together.
Lexus had never experienced things like that with Lenisha.
He thought of Lenisha.
The woman who always pushed him to the limit.
Lenisha was never dignified.
She always resisted and angered Lexus.
The reason Lexus started seeking other women was also because of Lenisha.
“…Tell Lenisha. If she doesn’t want to see that mansion burn, she should move willingly.”
He didn’t want to see Lenisha happy.
At least Lexus should be as unhappy as he was.
Since losing Lenisha, Lexus couldn’t even sleep properly!
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
While the courtier was barely holding back a sigh, Canary appeared.
Canary seemed more relaxed than before.
She entered, her dress fluttering, and gestured to the courtier.
It meant he could retreat now.
The courtier quickly fled.
“Your Majesty, why are you so angry?”
“Canary.”
Canary smiled prettily as before, embracing Lexus.
“I am here. I will make your desires come true. Isn’t it disappointing to be upset when you have Canary, who fulfills the wishes, including hugging the successor like this?”
With a gentle, soothing voice, Canary comforted Lexus.
It was a feeling of relief, as if the tense nerves had settled.
Canary seemed to recognize her limits and subjects.
She was satisfied with what Lexus gave her and obedient to his will.
Just like before becoming the empress.
‘Unlike Lenisha.’
No matter how hard Lexus tried to teach her, Lenisha never understood.
“Lenisha dares to defy the emperor’s will.”
“Ahaha.”
Canary chuckled. Crazy bird.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
