Blackening the Affectionate Male Lead (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 105
Whitney entered the royal palace and exchanged greetings with the courtiers around her.
“I’m really looking forward to Duke Orleans’s wine. I tasted it at the banquet this time, but unfortunately didn’t win a bottle.”
“A good opportunity will come your way. If you buy more, your chances increase—why not open another bottle while hoping for the next one?”
“Oh my, I hadn’t thought of that approach.”
They laughed and disappeared. Whitney maintained her practiced, courteous smile until the very end.
“I never knew you had this side to you.”
“Your Highness Chester.”
“What brings the Duke here without even a word to me? Not that I mind—I’m glad to see you.”
Chester casually wrapped an arm around her waist, clearly delighted. Whitney didn’t push him away, but looked up at him as she spoke.
“Princess Violet summoned me. I also had a letter to deliver.”
“It seems your conversation went well, then.”
Whitney flinched slightly at the brush of his fingers against her cheek and nodded. The courtiers’ eyes remained fixed on the two of them. Though their relationship had already made the newspapers, leaving no need to hide it, there was no harm in letting others see how close they were.
Whitney smiled as she gently smoothed his tousled hair with her hand.
“Yes, though I did run into an unpleasant guest afterward. Actually, I have something important to tell you!”
She grabbed his hand and pulled him along. He obediently followed her lead, lowering his head as though they were lovers sharing a secret whisper—just as they would appear to onlookers.

When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem

This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
Trigger warning: All men in this novel are yandere style.
