At the End of Ruin, There You Are (56 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 112
“Then, Your Highness, since we still have time left, I’ll tell you what to watch out for when dancing with elderly ladies.”
“Wasn’t it already over?”
“It’s still far from over.”
While Sir Osis, the Keeper of the Imperial Treasury, gathered his boxes, Caella held onto the Crown Prince, trying hard to imprint all the necessary tips into his mind.
“Dancing with elderly ladies… Oh, right.”
Gregory squeezed his eyes shut as the faces of numerous aged noblewomen—including his late father the Emperor’s youngest sister—flashed rapidly through his mind. He found strict elderly ladies utterly daunting.
“My mother is also waiting for Your Highness to ask her for a dance, Your Highness.”
Sir Osis interjected smoothly, and a gentle ripple of laughter spread around.
Sir Osis’s mother, Marchioness Rambouillet, was renowned as a formidable matriarch from an ancient lineage and famously unbending in her principles—second to none in her stiff demeanor. Caella smiled briefly before continuing.
“In particular, many of them have weak knees or backs, so if the music shifts to a slower tempo, that’s your cue to selectively invite the right elderly ladies.”
Gregory wanted to protest that this sounded impossible. How was he supposed to know when the mood would turn to a slower dance?
And what on earth did “selecting the right elderly ladies” even mean? Yet, he’d rather die than appear clumsy in front of Grand Duke Lusenford, so he simply nodded.
“I understand.”
“Dealing with elderly ladies is quite frightening, isn’t it?”
“Ugh, it really is. I’ll just stick myself firmly against the wall.”
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
