To My Beloved, I Present My Exquisite Nightmare (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 190
Od Hyenmorick’s funeral was conducted more simply than the format prescribed by the Searrow royal family.
Eustar faithfully followed the instructions written in the letter Od had prepared himself and sealed with his personal crest just as he began to fall ill. Instead of being placed in a stone sarcophagus and interred in the Hyenmorick royal crypt, Od’s body was cremated and his ashes scattered.
The day they scattered his ashes was brilliantly clear and cloudless after a very long time. A flock of white-throated warblers soared upward with the wind, escorting Od on his final journey.
Immediately after the funeral, Eustar’s coronation ceremony was held.
Since both Od’s funeral and Eustar’s succession had been prepared long in advance, everything proceeded smoothly without any need for haste—but Eustar himself felt he might have preferred it if things had been a bit more hectic and rushed.
That way, he thought, he might have forgotten his grief over his brother’s passing just a little sooner.
“There’s no need to force yourself to chase away sorrow.”
The night before the coronation, Laila cradled Eustar’s head in her lap and gently stroked his hair as she spoke.
She kept pressing kisses onto his hair—brushed until it was soft—and soothingly caressed his nape, shoulders, and ribcage.
“Your sorrow belongs to you alone, Eustar. You don’t need to worry about what others think.”
Though it wasn’t anything extraordinary, Eustar felt once again as if he’d been saved by Laila’s words.
The coronation was held with greater grandeur and solemnity than the funeral.
Some people murmured about Marchioness Himiard’s absence, but Eustar already knew she’d moved to the mages’ residence and paid it no mind.
The same went for a few others who had followed Marchioness Himiard, such as Count Tommen.
“Pay your respects to Her Majesty the Queen.”
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.”
