To You Who No Longer Want Me (7 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 39
For a while, Viare shut herself away in her study, pushing aside her pitiful and lonely feelings.
Despite Gaisen’s words that she shouldn’t overexert herself, she silently immersed herself only in her work.
After all, staying busy was the best way to shake off melancholy.
It was while she was intently reviewing a stack of letters delivered by a servant during her focused work.
‘This is…’
Upon recognizing the sealing wax stamped on the black envelope, Viare felt a surge of joy course through her.
The letter had been sent by none other than the “Elmada Social Club,” an unofficial gathering.
Elmada wasn’t a place one could easily join just by wanting to.
No matter how high one’s status or how much money one offered, it remained an exclusive and coveted social club.
Rumors claimed it was the very place where noble families’ latest affairs were first uncovered, simultaneously generating gossip and serving as a hub for hidden connections.
As an unofficial club, its elite members remained undisclosed; however, Viare had managed to obtain some information about it through Gaisen.
And among that information, one detail stood out most clearly.
‘An ancient lineage.’
Amidst their differences, their sole commonality was belonging to an ancient family.
Thus, as the daughter of House Ruschef, she had given up on this avenue and instead tirelessly worked to build connections elsewhere in high society.
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.”
