To You, Whom I Shouldn't Love (24 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 47
“I believe trust is important in marriage. You’ve been someone I could rely on all this time, and that’s why I chose this marriage.”
“…….”
“But now, I’m not so sure. Given the current situation, can I really trust you?”
“I’m sorry.”
“This isn’t about wanting to hear an apology.”
Riena sighed, gazing at the closed door. Outside, Amy and the maids were likely waiting.
They must have overheard at least part of the conversation inside, given how loudly they’d argued.
Two men and one woman—it might seem like a love triangle to others, even if that wasn’t the truth. Perfect fodder for gossip, in other words.
Though the Duke’s household employed only trustworthy servants, there was no telling when or where rumors might slip out.
“There are too many listening ears. I have much more I’d like to say, but let’s stop here for today.”
“Liana.”
Riena stepped back, avoiding Cassel’s outstretched hand.
“My mind is too tangled. I think I need some time alone to sort things out.”
“…….”
“You probably need time as well. It’s best if we stay apart until we’ve both gathered our thoughts.”

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.”
