When I Let Go of Obsession, I Got Obsessed (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 40
After parting ways with Cain, Liz returned to her quarters and stared blankly out the window for a while.
The sight of the once bright blue sky now softly veiled in pearlescent twilight was always mesmerizing. Even the fir forest, bathed in dusk and swaying like seaweed in the wind, looked peaceful—a perfect natural scene to forget her chaotic reality.
Liz’s thoughts snapped back to the present just as she opened the window for some fresh air.
She saw servants strolling through the garden after their early dinner to aid digestion, chatting animatedly in small groups. Everyone wore cheerful, tranquil expressions.
It seemed as though only Liz herself couldn’t share in that peace.
“What went wrong, and where did it all start?”
Liz murmured softly to herself, her eyes once again clouded with confusion.
Why wouldn’t things unfold as they did in the original story?
Why wouldn’t the male lead fall in love with the female lead?
She had even cautiously asked him a couple of times, wondering if perhaps he’d already fallen in love without her noticing.
‘What do you think of Lilia?’

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.

Because they are the same. A worthless trash would be enough to describe them
Two devil in the same carriage. I am really disgusted right now
Ugh. I want to hit her. But I can’t. I would say a lot of things but I don’t want to traumatize the readers. The one who is useless is you.
