To You, Whom I Shouldn't Love (24 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 40
Riena, instead of trying to persuade Noah further, took a book and went to sit on the sofa where Chloe was.
Noah stood in the corner, merely watching warily, and did not follow her.
Chloe, seemingly accustomed to this, paid Noah no attention and kept her eyes only on Riena.
Riena lowered her voice and asked,
“Do you not play much with Noah?”
“Noah? He doesn’t like playing.”
How could any child dislike playing? Riena observed Noah, who kept glancing furtively at the toys.
“Why do you think Noah dislikes playing?”
“Whenever I say I want to play with Noah, everyone tells me he doesn’t want to play with me.”
“I see.”
“Yeah!”
It seemed unlikely that Noah had truly said that himself; rather, it appeared the mansion staff had discouraged Chloe from spending time with him.
After casting another quick glance toward Noah, Riena began reading the book aloud to Chloe.
Though Noah pretended not to care, he soon showed interest, his eyes lighting up.
The boy hesitated briefly, then came and sat down beside Riena.
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.”
