Wishing My Husband Dead (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 65
Cordelia’s face instantly turned bright red. She chased Leonard out of the room by swinging a pillow. Grumbling that she had told him not to leave but was now changing her mind, he soon left the room.
After a while, Leila entered carrying a basin filled with warm water.
“You’re awake? How are you feeling?”
“When did Master come to my room?”
At Cordelia’s question, Leila awkwardly rolled her eyes before answering.
“Well… I don’t know. He was here when I came in the morning.”
“If he was going to visit, why not come during the day? …Ah, never mind. I’d like to take a bath.”
“Are your feet okay?”
“Feet? Oh, now that you mention it, they don’t hurt anymore.”
She lifted the blanket and saw that the swelling had clearly subsided compared to yesterday. The fever that had heated her head and internal organs had vanished completely. Leila placed a hand on her forehead and smiled in relief.
“You don’t have a fever anymore. That’s such a relief.”
“Yeah. Probably thanks to Master…”
She stopped mid-sentence as memories of last night surfaced—what she had thought was just a dream. Everything from tearfully clinging to him, begging him not to go, to him forcibly holding her as they fell asleep together.
Most embarrassing of all was the fact that, due to her illness, she hadn’t properly bathed in days.
“Oh? Your face is turning red again. Is your fever coming back?”
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.”
