Who Did You Say My Father Is? - Chapter 40
The familiar sequence of events unfolded smoothly.
The knights approached and picked up Valerie, pricked her fingertip with a needle to draw a bit of blood, and then comforted her when she cried in pain. Having done this once before in Urentum, they skipped all unnecessary steps and moved quickly.
However, there was one change from the first time we did the paternity test.
“Uwaah!”
“Oh dear, our poor little lady.”
“Oh my, who did this to our lady?”
“Our Valerie, there there. Oh, so pretty. Shh, shh. It’s okay.”
“I’m right here. Lady, shh, stop now. Don’t cry, shh.”
The difference this time was that there were plenty of people to attend to Valerie besides me. As soon as her pained cry broke out, eight hands reached out to comfort her.
Except for Kendrick, who fumbled a step behind, not knowing how to handle a baby, the other four were in a frenzy to soothe her.
Not having to personally take care of the child thanks to the many hands was a relief, though I wasn’t sure if it was a good or bad thing.
Valerie, after scanning the faces of those reaching out to her, struggled towards Hanna, whom she was familiar with.
Liv, who had been fussing over how cute Valerie’s troubled face was, looked sulkily and pouted when Valerie passed her by for Hanna. But soon, she was determined to become Valerie’s closest confidant.
No work at the Count’s residence? Everyone seemed too eager to engage in childcare.
“We will also need a drop of blood from the Grand Duke.”
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.”
