Blackening the Affectionate Male Lead (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 30
“A ring?”
Whitney tilted her head, puzzled, as she looked at the diamond ring resting on her palm. Since a bird had brought it, it was clearly sent by Prince Chester.
She untied the note tied to the bird’s leg.
[If you agree with what I’ve sent, wear the ring on your debutante day. I hope you understand that I cannot put it on your finger myself.]
Whitney stared intently at the ring glinting in the sunlight. Carefully picking it up with her fingers, she watched it shimmer with mysterious light from every angle.
‘This is the first time I’ve ever received something like this.’
She felt flustered, as if she’d just received a confession from a man. Of course, he probably didn’t mean it that way—it was likely just a convenient way to signal their relationship to others.
Even so, Whitney was in a good mood. With a shy expression, she cautiously slipped the ring onto her finger. It was slightly loose, but not enough to be a problem.
Whitney kept staring at the ring on her finger, then abruptly shook her head.
“Hmm… My heart keeps floating up like a cloud. It feels light and fluffy, like cotton candy.”
Though it might vanish like mist, she wouldn’t cry like a child when that time came. Knowing it was never truly hers, she didn’t indulge in greed.
Whitney propped her chin in her hand, gazing at the clear sky. Her desk was piled with documents about the Ducal Mansion—papers about finance, Cecilia, and Melissa.
“How should I drive them out once I return to the Ducal Mansion?”
If she simply dismissed them, people would talk. Whitney groaned, drumming her fingers on the table, then shook her head firmly.
“I’ll think of a better way.”

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.
