Who Regressed the Timekeeper? (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 65
My sister was so clever that she saw right through my heart. I felt ashamed, but I didn’t argue back.
My father, worse than a beast, having already sold my sister to gain a gold mine, still couldn’t let go of his greed and clicked his tongue in regret.
“If only she hadn’t borne the Emperor’s son… I could’ve taken a secret payment from the Empress Consort, had her deposed, and sold her off somewhere else.”
That’s why I resented my nephew, whom I’d never even seen. After all, I’d planned to sneak away with Portia the moment my sister returned.
But that thought vanished the instant my sister, feigning illness, earnestly begged the Emperor and Empress Consort to let me enter the Imperial Palace.
The first time I saw my young nephew, he was truly, utterly adorable.
My very first thought upon seeing the child was, “Someone must protect him.” He was so tiny and fragile. My sister claimed he was clever and strong despite appearances, but I couldn’t believe it. His limbs looked as if they’d snap with the slightest touch, and his face was so small that fitting eyes, nose, and mouth on it seemed miraculous.
“I’m sorry.”
As I stared at the child, dazed, my sister whispered those words to me. I froze like a stone statue—I understood exactly what she meant. Now that she was useless to our father, it was my turn.
“Father will strip me down to the bone.”
I wasn’t as clever or composed as my sister. Just before leaving for the Empire, recalling how my father had raged, demanding my sister strangle me to secure a different gold mine instead of the depleted one, made every hair on my body stand on end.
Now, instead of my sister, I would have to endure his demands and insatiable greed.
“Trust Portia. Father… won’t last much longer.”
To me, frozen in terror, my sister whispered a great secret. But at that moment, panic overwhelmed me, and I couldn’t properly grasp her words.
“Time is on your side. So… just let yourself be forgotten.”
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.”
