Blackening the Affectionate Male Lead (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 61
“Lady. Aren’t you bored?”
“Your Highness Chester. It seems this will take even more time. I’m worried that the nobles’ complaints will keep piling up, and people’s opinions of you might worsen.”
He smiled with his eyes crinkled and gently smoothed Whitney’s hair. The glances still occasionally darting toward Chester had grown sharper than before. They would only intensify as the days passed.
Though the food and lodging provided by the palace satisfied the nobles, it wouldn’t be good to keep them too long under the anxiety of possibly being labeled suspects in a confined space.
As if sensing Whitney’s unease, Chester suddenly popped a macaron into her mouth. Sweetness flooded her mouth before she even realized what had happened.
“It’ll be over soon.”
At his words, Whitney blinked, chewing the macaron absentmindedly.
Over soon? Had he perhaps struck a bargain with Her Majesty the Queen just now?
If things hadn’t gone well with the Queen, the fastest way forward would be for Melissa to recant her testimony. He’d already spoken with her before meeting him, yet she seemed determined to hold her ground. Now that Her Majesty the Queen was involved in some scheme, Melissa surely wouldn’t persist blindly.
His aunt had said she’d speak with Melissa herself, but since Whitney didn’t know what “a strong card” even meant, she couldn’t hastily inform him.
Pretending to be anxious, Whitney clutched his collar and asked,
“You seemed to be speaking with Her Majesty the Queen earlier—did something happen?”
“Well, I can’t say nothing happened.”
“…Yes?”
Her eyes widened with worry as she asked, but he only smiled again with crinkled eyes and said nothing. Then he brushed away the macaron crumbs from her lips.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
Short intro:
What she can’t stand the most is the streets full of effeminate men, especially that so-called top beauty whom she avoids at all costs.
Shen Yaoxing looks at Jiang Mingyue, who keeps approaching her with coy shyness.
Shen Yaoxing: Bro, don’t be like this, I’m really about to throw up!
She fears nothing in heaven or earth, except for him getting close to her.
*
At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
This dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Mingyue, and he vowed to make her, like everyone else, fall at his feet in worship!
