To You Whom I Don’t Love That Much (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 041
41.
At the sudden ambush, Ro instinctively flailed. The hand covering her nose and mouth had an astonishingly strong grip—nothing like the frail strength of an old woman. She thought she had been trapped. Someone must have lured her here by imitating Calypso’s appearance. After all, the Calypso she knew was utterly incapable of such strength.
“Shhh.”
The moment she heard that voice, Ro stopped resisting. There was no doubt—it was Calypso. No matter how perfectly someone else mimicked her, no one could replicate Calypso’s voice. It sounded like an elderly woman’s, yet beneath it seemed to dwell multiple souls. Like a woman, a man, a child, and an old person all speaking the exact same words at the exact same time—an eerie sensation.
“Don’t scream.”
When Ro nodded, Calypso slowly released her.
As her airway opened, Ro coughed and quickly backed away. Then she scrutinized the old woman up and down with suspicious eyes. The hood pulled over her head, the hunched spine, the matted white hair, the blackened, rotting teeth, the occasional glimpse of gold teeth when she opened her mouth, the bony, claw-like hands.
No matter where she looked, this woman didn’t seem capable of such force. The oppressive strength had been so intense that escaping alone would have been impossible. Was it because she was ‘Leah’ that it felt that way? Or had Calypso always been hiding her strength? While Ro stared doubtfully, Calypso slowly pushed the eyepatch covering half her face up to her forehead, revealing a pale, milky eye, and smiled faintly.
“I had a feeling someone would appear here.”
“…….”
“It’s you, Rosetta. Calypso didn’t expect it to be you.”
Ro inhaled sharply, then froze stiff.
Though not a few pirates had always dismissed Calypso as mere superstition—some even calling her a witch under their breath, even she herself had done so—knowing in her mind that Calypso could see souls and actually experiencing it firsthand were entirely different matters. Dazed, Ro rubbed her cheek.
“You know… it’s me?”
“Of course. Calypso sees everything.”
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
