Covetous Sponsorship (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 55
“This is Yoon Ga Eul, my partner accompanying me.”
“Oh, I see. If it’s not too forward, may I ask what she does?”
“She’s a painter affiliated with our gallery.”
The man, seemingly satisfied with the answer, asked no further questions.
Ga Eul breathed a sigh of relief. He had introduced her as his partner with a surprisingly straightforward reply.
Ga Eul, finally relaxing for the first time, gave a gentle smile—when Gi Tae’s hand suddenly touched her cheek. Startled, she looked up at him with wide eyes, only to see him speak nonchalantly without withdrawing his hand.
“She’s the painter I’ve been watching most closely lately, so it’s hard to let her out of my sight. I have so much I want to tell her, and she understands everything perfectly as soon as I say it.”
He rattled off his boasts as if showing off, then affectionately stroked Ga Eul’s cheek.
“Aha! So she must paint very well, if you’re already singing her praises like this.”
“Yes. She will soon become the painter who represents our gallery.”
What on earth is he saying…?
His exaggerated compliments, delivered right in front of her, made Ga Eul’s face burn red.
Ga Eul didn’t know it, but everyone around them had been listening intently.
Had he arrived alone, as usual, no one would have paid much attention—but this was the first time Gi Tae had brought a woman, so everyone was watching him closely.
He had openly declared her as the treasured painter of his gallery.

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…
