Who Spent the Night with the Tower Master (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 22
“You were quiet for a while, so why are you causing trouble again?”
Summoned to the Ministry of Magic, Gibnen fidgeted with the water cup in front of him, avoiding eye contact. The investigator sighed and began reading through the documents.
“I believe we repeatedly told you never to remove the control needle, no matter what?”
“I wanted to keep it in. But do you think it’s that easy? Do you know how uncomfortable it is?”
“What’s so uncomfortable about it? You just keep it in your body. It’s not painful, so what’s the issue?”
“It feels foreign.”
“If you can’t even handle that slight foreign sensation, I have nothing more to say.”
“Everyone’s sensitivity is different. I’ve said time and again that I was born with an extremely sensitive disposition.”
“That doesn’t mean we can overlook illegal actions.”
“That’s true.”
“Lupla, what did you go all the way there for? What was your purpose?”
Gibnen was in a foul mood.
He had agreed to voluntarily attend the investigation at the Ministry of Magic, but the impatient investigator had insisted on summoning him. Early in the morning, no less.
As a result, his promise to show Riley Horizon was delayed. For someone like Gibnen, who preferred a controlled environment where everything went according to plan, the Ministry’s abrupt summons was deeply irritating.
“Where I go is my business. Do I have to explain personal matters too?”
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.”
I think we have mixed up her fathers name and our ML’s last name..otherwise this is a confusing relationship they have,
The more we learn about her father the less sure about him I am. Really set up his daughter for so much strife
at what point does she get concerned that literally every person she tells about her engagements tells her to get out?
