To Become Family with the Male Lead (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 72
About six years later.
[Elegant and beautiful Lise Marceau, now a proper young lady. Congratulations on your graduation at 17.]
November winter, graduation season.
Despite the chilly weather, Benedetine Girls’ Boarding School was bustling with people. The main building corridor was no exception.
Amid the crowd stood a young woman tightly clutching her diploma and a bouquet as large as her own body. Because of this, she kept bumping into people.
“Oh! I’m so sorry!”
This was already the sixth time. A man who had been standing idly suddenly felt a bump on his back and turned around, annoyed.
“…Huh.”
Unconsciously, the man stared intently at the woman’s face. She had long red hair. The moment he saw her face, the sharp words he’d intended to say vanished completely.
‘Unbelievable.’
He had only used his younger sister’s graduation as an excuse—he had actually come here to see the young ladies attending this school.
He’d arrived full of anticipation, but none matched his ideal. Just as he was losing all interest in the ceremony, feeling he’d come for nothing, he encountered this woman.
“…Um, are you alright? Did you perhaps get hurt…?”
She was so stunningly beautiful she left him speechless.
“A-Ah, no! I was blocking the way. It’s my fault.”
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.”

Where did Roger go? I hope he’s not trying to get revenge on Liz the Count. I hope he rots in hell.
