You Can't Catch the Wind (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 96
“Cal…?”
Forgetting even the lingering pain in her hand, Ael stared at the name written on the envelope.
For a moment, she wondered if this letter might have been meant for someone else named “Cal.” But Ino would never make such a mistake.
It had been placed on Calon’s desk, so it must surely be for him—but who would address him as “Cal”?
Even Ael, who treated Calon most casually in Altvea, had never used such a nickname for him.
If this letter truly was meant for Calon, then who on earth could have sent it?
As Ael pondered who might have sent it, the throbbing pain in her hand reminded her of the strange incident just moments ago.
“I’m certain there was absolutely nothing written on it.”
Yet the envelope now clearly bore distinct handwriting.
That wasn’t the only change. The first time she’d seen it, it had been an unremarkable plain white envelope, but now a faint pattern was visible.
Its texture felt incredibly soft and smooth, instantly revealing it to be made of very high-quality paper.
Moreover, when she turned it over, she saw a golden wax seal stuck to the back, already broken open.
The crest stamped upon it felt unfamiliar yet somehow vaguely recognizable.
“Where have I seen this before?”
She tried recalling the crests of various noble houses, but none matched this one.

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.”
