Why Do You Obsess Even After Death (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 97
Laches smiled, shrugging his shoulders as if he were feeling much better.
“What about the assassins and the gardener? Any progress?”
“It seems someone bought Demaloxin this lifetime too, just to kill you.”
“Huh?”
“They say a man once came, completely veiling his face, and offered several times the usual price to buy Demaloxin.”
“……!! Did they say they saw the buyer’s face?”
“That’s the strange part.”
“Huh?”
“He clearly covered his face when entering, but when leaving, he deliberately revealed it—as if wanting to be seen. So they got a good look.”
“……What? He covered his face coming in, but took off his mask when leaving?”
“Yeah. They said they looked closely enough that they’d recognize him if they met again.”
“……Why would he show his face……”
“It seems intentional. There could be many reasons. For now, I’m thinking of sketching his face from memory.”
That truly was odd. When secretly trying to buy something, wouldn’t it be normal to keep your face hidden the whole time? Then why reveal it on purpose?
“……Perhaps I should try reading their memories.”

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.”
