You And I Live In Different Worlds (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 90
Melie’s heart was troubled as she gazed at the empty shop.
She had distributed flyers and lowered prices to attract customers, yet those who had already tasted premium tea and experienced refined service at bargain prices showed no sign of returning to her teahouse.
She had firmly resolved not to give in—no matter what.
Sigh…
Whenever she looked at the shop with no guests, at tables that gathered dust almost instantly despite daily wiping, and at tea leaves expiring unused without ever having been steeped, Melie felt her determination growing soft and uncertain.
“I can’t go on like this. I’ll do a thorough cleaning.”
To shake off her wavering spirit, Melie rose from her seat.
She pushed the tables aside and scrubbed every corner of the floor. She took down all the curtains, stuffed them into a basin, and stomped on them firmly with her feet. With time still to spare, she stitched together fabric scraps collected from various places to make new tablecloths, hoping a fresh atmosphere might pique customers’ interest enough to draw them back.
“Is this good enough?”
As she held up the newly finished patchwork tablecloth, inspecting it from different angles, the shop bell suddenly rang.
At the long-awaited customer, a smile spread across Melie’s face.
“Welcome…”
“Hey there, mama. I’m here.”
But the figure standing there wasn’t a customer—it was Flora, the shop’s landlady.
The normally dignified woman stood awkwardly by the doorway, wearing a forced smile.
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 hate excessive kindness in novels, even if they are hurt.
But Edric’s whisper in her ear had dropped low and quiet.
I don’t think you left anything that would make her have even a little bit of love for you.
Nor the next day. Or the day after that….
A real man would never force himself on a woman 🙃

The weaker side is the one that loves more. Those were your words
I completely agree with the statement: “As long as a person is alive, it’s never too late.”
He was confident that she would eventually return.
