49 Times Left, Master! (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 168
It’s not only my disciple whose thoughts are hard to fathom. The Third Prince is also truly difficult to read. Why did he bring up that sad story with me? And why did my disciple mention the Empress to me?
Even after returning home, I spent a while mulling over those thoughts. But guessing another’s inner feelings was no easy task.
Besides, the atmosphere wasn’t right for quiet contemplation either. As the Cheonrye ceremony drew near, people began growing excited, and our household couldn’t escape it.
When the imperial family holds Cheonrye, everyone is in a festive mood. How could our family alone remain grim when the whole world is celebrating?
‘If I can’t avoid it, I’ll do everything I can within it.’
In the end, I stopped brooding in one place while my disciple was convalescing and instead made a plan and went outside.
Walking toward the square where crowds would gather on Cheonrye Day, I saw merchants living nearby already installing decorative structures here and there for the occasion.
Wandering around, I spotted a man dressed entirely in white from head to toe, leaning on a cane, and approached him.
The man kept sniffing the air as if trying to sense some invisible energy, but when I drew near, he stopped and greeted me.
“Milady, what brings you here?”
“I have a request.”
At my words, the man laughed heartily.
“A request from someone we’ve just met?”
I pulled from my robes a pouch too heavy for one hand to hold easily, poured out half of it, and handed it to him.
“Here. Take this. It’s a token of gratitude.”
An Indifferent Woman is the One Men Desire the Most
One-line summary: The female lead is actually cold-hearted and extremely rational. She has stage-by-stage relationships and won’t two-time, but there will always be someone who secretly likes her.
This novel has the following triggers, so if you’re sensitive to these, please don’t read:
1. The female lead has had many relationships, but she treated each one seriously and broke up properly.
It’s just that the men unilaterally pestered her incessantly. For the female lead, when she doesn’t like someone anymore, she simply doesn’t like them.
(This applies to her relationships with Male Lead 1, 2, 3, and 4 as well, but she’s loyal in each 1-on-1 relationship!)
2. In this novel, Male Lead 2 and the female lead kiss in a car, and Male Lead 1 sees it and beats up Male Lead 2.
The female lead calls the police and sends both Male Lead 1 and 2 to the police station! Male Lead 1 begs the female lead not to break up with him.
3. Male Lead 1 has a gentle appearance but an obsessive personality.
Male Lead 2 has a delicate and soft appearance, slightly green tea-like (two-faced).
Male Lead 3 is a youthful college student and a smart person who has secretly liked the female lead for a long time.
Male Lead 4 is the female lead’s father’s special assistant, a business elite with deep, hidden thoughts.
4. At the beginning of this novel, the female lead has already broken up with Male Lead 1 (Chapter 4) and gotten back together with Male Lead 2 (ex-boyfriend).
5. Enter with caution if you have triggers!!!
