Why Do You Obsess Even After Death (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 115
“I’m on my way back after parting with Lady Littha.”
Bianca and Viscount Hillos officially broke off their engagement today.
Viscount Hillos demanded the annulment, telling Countess Littha that he could not marry into a family embroiled in such an unsavory incident, and the countess accepted his request.
“How is Lady Bianca? What’s the mood like in the household, Viscount Hillos?”
“I spoke with Lady Littha myself, and she seemed fine. For now, imperial knights are stationed nearby, and she appears extremely cautious about preventing any further commotion, so I doubt there’ll be any trouble.”
“…Viscount Littha went directly to His Majesty, didn’t he?”
“Yes. Just as the investigation was about to begin, he went straight to His Majesty, declaring he would confess to all his crimes.”
Events unfolded exactly as I’d anticipated. A sweeping investigation was launched into the Littha family, and before everything could even be fully uncovered, Crown Prince Belial severed all ties with them.
Viscount Littha had gone directly to the Emperor, volunteering to confess to every wrongdoing.
‘Crown Prince Belial must have promised him that if he admitted his crimes properly, he’d spare him from execution.’
When you’re staring death in the face, you’ll do anything just to cling to life.
“He probably told His Majesty that no one ordered him to do it—that he acted alone, merely trying to impress someone, right?”
“Precisely. He insisted it was entirely his own doing, that no one else was involved, and pleaded they avoid unfounded speculation.”
“Even so…”
I chuckled softly.
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.”

I thought the same Pesoor, it wasn’t just you. I thought for sure you’d undergo rough interrogation.
