Why Do You Obsess Even After Death (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 40
It was chaotic. My head spun as if multiple colors of paint had been mixed together.
“Ugh.”
This was the first time my memories had been so hopelessly tangled—like an unsolvable knot of yarn.
“Huh? Are you alright?”
The cart repairman’s eyes widened in alarm as I let out a short groan and swayed unsteadily.
“I’m fine, really. I just skipped a meal today, so my stomach’s growling—that’s all…”
I offered an awkward excuse, gave a quick bow, and hurriedly left the spot.
The repairman’s memories were incomplete, as if someone had spilled ink over a clear recollection.
Memories are the very essence of a person’s life. No matter how out of one’s mind someone might be, their lived memories never change.
‘How can he possibly stay sane?’
It was true that the cart repairman had a young daughter—that was the only memory of his that remained perfectly clear.
But that was all. There were no other recollections, no other memories beyond that.
Every encounter with an unseen person, every conversation exchanged—all of it was jumbled and fragmented.
It seemed as though he’d received some kind of order, but even that was merely my own speculation.
Moreover, there was a memory—scrawled as if with a quill—of someone handing Detor a goat’s horn. The cart repairman must have been present at that moment too.
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.”
