Chapter 472: The Pure-Clad Dark Heir 22

Hearing the Lin Prince’s words, Jiang Yuantong’s expression shifted.

“If you truly want revenge,” the old prince said gravely, “then you may deal with those directly responsible back then—but you must never set your sights on the imperial family. Do you understand?”

Jiang Yuantong paused, then nodded. “I understand, Grandfather.”

Seeing this, the Lin Prince finally relaxed.

“Then… your soul still cannot return during the day?”

Jiang Yuantong shook his head. “I don’t know. During the day, my soul becomes muddled and wanders. Only at night do I regain awareness and return to my body. But…”

“But what?”

“These past two days… I don’t know if it’s because of Tang Wan, but my soul has become much more stable. I’ve started gaining awareness earlier in the night.”

The Lin Prince’s eyes lit up.

“It seems the fortune-teller was right. Tang Wan truly is blessed—she can bring you good fortune.”

He continued, “Tomorrow, I’ll have someone invite a skilled Taoist to examine you. If your soul can fully return to your body, that would be best.”

Jiang Yuantong nodded.

…

“It’s late,” the Lin Prince said after a moment. “Now that everything is clear, go back and rest.”

Thinking of Tang Wan, Jiang Yuantong’s throat moved slightly before he nodded.

“Yes, Grandfather. Please rest early.”

“Go on.”

…

Jiang Yuantong left quickly and returned to the courtyard.

What he didn’t know was that Tang Wan was already fast asleep.

Knowing he would be staying with the Lin Prince tonight, she had relaxed completely—finally able to rest properly.

So when Jiang Yuantong entered, what he saw was her sleeping peacefully, wrapped in her quilt.

A faint smile curved his lips.

He quietly removed his outer robe and lay down beside her.

The moment he did—

Tang Wan instinctively turned over and nestled into his arms, continuing to sleep.

Jiang Yuantong’s expression softened.

He lowered his head and pressed a light kiss to her lips.

…

Early the next morning—

Tang Wan opened her eyes to find Jiang Yuantong lying beside her.

Her heart skipped.

Wasn’t he supposed to sleep in the Lin Prince’s room?

She quickly checked herself.

Only after confirming nothing had happened did she relax slightly.

At that moment, Jiang Yuantong also woke up, his eyes clear and innocent.

“Madam!”

His bright smile softened her expression.

“Husband, it’s time to get up.”

“I’ll only get up if Madam gives me a kiss,” he said immediately.

Tang Wan: …

Who had been teaching him all this?

Still, she leaned forward and gave him a quick peck.

Jiang Yuantong instantly beamed and sat up happily.

Then, after a moment, he scratched his head in confusion.

“Madam… didn’t I sleep in Grandfather’s room last night? Why did I wake up here?”

Tang Wan paused briefly, then shook her head. “I’m not sure either. You can ask Grandfather later.”

“Alright.” Jiang Yuantong nodded.

Chapter 1: Got Dumped on the Day of the Wedding

 Translator's Note Before we begin—I'll just take a moment of your time! 🌸 I know this is a bit of a wall of text to encounter before the actual novel, so I'll keep it simple: please take a moment to read this first so you know what to expect from this translation. After this chapter, you can happily skip these notes unless there's something new I need to mention. I promise I won't make you read this before every chapter. 😂 I'm sharing this translation simply because I translated this novel for myself, enjoyed it, and thought that perhaps other readers with similar tastes might enjoy it too. I'm a huge fan of quick-transmigration (快穿) novels, especially the kind where the protagonist is already extremely capable—or becomes overpowered very quickly—and gets to go through different worlds, counterattack, face-slap, and generally make life difficult for people who deserve it. I usually don't gravitate toward QT novels that focus heavily on favorabi...

Chapter 2: Does It Matter If I Am Gay?

When the male makeup artist heard Tang Wan’s words, he was immediately stunned. The others around him looked at him with envy, wishing Tang Wan would casually point at them instead. That was five billion! After a while, the male makeup artist finally reacted. His face flushed red as he asked, “Is it okay if I’m gay?” “It doesn’t matter if you’re gay or anything else. As long as you hold a wedding with me, the five billion will be yours!” Tang Wan said. “I agree!” he replied excitedly, nodding desperately. Tang Wan snapped her fingers when she heard this. “Okay! You guys, hurry up and change his clothes and fix his styling!” Hah! Did they really think she absolutely had to marry Sun Wu? Three-legged toads were hard to find, but there were plenty of two-legged men in the world! ... Hearing Tang Wan’s words, the others immediately got busy, pressing the temporary groom into a chair while applying makeup and changing him into a suit. Half an hour later, Tang Wan wor...

Chapter 3: I Am Your Father

“Even if what you say is true, what exactly are you?” “I’m not a thing! I’m a system! Haven’t you ever read system novels before?” the child said loudly. Tang Wan finally couldn’t hold back her laughter. “Your name really is Daddy? Can’t your name be changed? I could even be your mother. Aren’t you embarrassed making me call you Daddy?” “The name can’t be changed. Every system has a serial number, and my number is called Daddy!” In reality, his number was 88. But since 88 sounded like “Daddy,” why not let the host call him father? He really was a clever little ghost, taking advantage of the host verbally like this! He silently gave himself a thumbs-up. ... Looking at his old-fashioned expression, Tang Wan couldn’t help stepping forward and reaching out her hands to knead his cheeks. “It feels nice, just like a real person. Are you actually alive?” Tang Wan asked in surprise. As Tang Wan pinched his cheeks, they immediately turned red. Then, with a stern expression...
