Nothing particularly special had happened on the way to the Roselip Duke’s house. Delina, upon hearing the servant’s words that they had arrived at the Duke’s house, got out of the carriage and looked up at the main gate. Other carriages were also arriving, and the young ladies were stepping into the mansion.
“Have a good time.”
“Yeah, I’ll be back.”
There was no one to look at Delina as she got out of an ordinary carriage without the family crest. The young ladies who had brought animals were gleaming in their eyes, showing their anticipation for the social gathering.
“……”
“……”
Delina, like the other young ladies, was also taking an animal with her, but she and the monkey were exchanging displeased glances.
The lingering resentment from the past caused Delina to glare at the monkey, who, whether she did or not, just snorted.
“You better behave when I speak nicely.”
“Kee.”
Though she had to bring it to the social gathering, there were already no good feelings between the two. Delina, with a sullen face from the beginning, was walking, when someone approached from afar.
“Delina!”
It was none other than Ailey.
“Why are you so late!”
“Late? It hasn’t even started yet.”
As always.
Even though she had grown older, even though it had been a long time since they last met, her friend was still the same. Delina smiled slightly at the unchanging sight of Ailey.
“But how long I waited… uh, what? Is that your monkey?”
Ailey, seeing the monkey on Delina’s shoulder, asked as if confused. The monkey also turned its head slightly, as if interested in Ailey.
“What about the puppy?”
“There was a little problem with that. And don’t approach it. It’s very violent……”
“But it’s cute!”
That thing?
The monkey, which had somehow nestled in Ailey’s arms, was frolicking with Ailey. Delina laughed a hollow laugh at the sight.
“What’s its name?”
“Name? Name……”
Delina, just realizing that she hadn’t given the monkey a name, narrowed her eyes and looked at the monkey.
‘Well, its fur is golden, so…’
“Nureongi?”
“Kee!”
At Delina’s sound of Nureongi, the monkey’s tail struck Delina’s arm. Unable to shout because of the place, Delina glared at the monkey once more, and the defiant monkey stared back at her.
“I actually haven’t decided yet. I’ve been thinking about it since it hasn’t been long since I brought it. But what about you, the rabbit?”
“It’s already playing in the garden. It’s definitely Roselip Duke’s house. The garden is really huge, you know?”
The Roselip Duke’s mansion was indeed one of the largest in the empire. The two looked at the animals Sylvia was raising for a while before moving on to where the gathering was taking place.
“But when did you make your debut? If you were going to, you should have told me. Then we would have gone in together.”
“……Something came up, so I had to go quickly.”
“Yeah. Anyway, I left early that day because I was sick… oh, really. This time at the debutante ball, there were so many fun things, and I missed them all.”
“Fun things?”
“You didn’t see it, did you? The young lady who danced alone with His Highness the Crown Prince, the one with pink hair.”
“Oh, yes. Right. Yes.”
Delina turned her head at Ailee’s words and moved her steps. Ailee was talking nonstop without knowing anything.
“Now, because of that, the young ones who are about to make their debut are practicing their dance so hard.”
“……Is there such a story?”
“Yeah. Especially, they practice the movement of lifting their partners so diligently.”
With the thought that she had unwittingly caused a craze for the empire’s dance, Delina tightly closed her eyes. Even though she was like that, there was one person who was quite angry about this incident.
Ashud.
He might be roaring with anger somewhere in the palace because the news of what happened at the debutante was spreading. The corner of Delina’s mouth awkwardly went up. Ailee, not knowing how Delina felt, spoke with a tone full of regret.
“I wanted to dance at the debutante too! I wanted to see His Highness, the Imperial Grandson.”
“……Are you interested in His Highness?”
“Hmm, more than being interested in His Highness……. I’m interested in a handsome face. You know. I have high standards.”
“Ah……. Because your standards are high, because your standards are high, that’s why…….”
Because you like Gideon…….
At Ailee’s words, Delina’s eyes momentarily lost focus and began to waver. She didn’t even want to imagine Ailee calling her own older brother handsome.
“Yeah. That’s right……. I hope you find a good man.”
As they continued their conversation, a garden with tables appeared before their eyes. The figures of other young ladies began to appear one by one.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
