When I Let Go of Obsession, I Got Obsessed (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 65
Hersys walked over, unbuttoning his jacket one button at a time.
His rough movements and the rapidly closing distance felt intensely threatening. Liz thought this man was about to knock her uncle unconscious.
Just as she hesitated over whether to intervene or not, he gently grasped her shoulder.
“…….”
His large, delicate hand removed the Grand Duke Montaner’s jacket from Liz’s shoulders and handed it to the captain of the guards who followed behind.
While Hersys draped his own coat over Liz, the captain of the guards passed the jacket back to the Grand Duke with an apologetic expression.
The Grand Duke Montaner let out a faint chuckle, amused, as he took the jacket.
“It seems I’ve caused you unnecessary discomfort. I spoke up only because I felt it unwise for you to remain unaware… My apologies, Your Imperial Majesty. And to Your Imperial Highness as well.”
His polite words carried a subtle trace of contempt.
Liz wanted to end the situation by saying it was fine, but Hersys blocked her path.
“My uncle’s sincerity—I understand it, and so does your future Empress.”
“…….”
“But others might interpret things differently. I worry that people might mistakenly believe you harbor resentment toward me. It would sadden me deeply if you, who so willingly relinquished the throne to your nephew, were seen as such a petty person.”
Hersys continued in a gentle, coaxing tone.
“I kindly ask you to refrain from showing excessive interest in my future wife and her family, Uncle.”
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.”

Woah… I actually hope these two will have some sort of grudging respect for one another. I don’t wish for Lilia to come back as a villainess
