Duke, This Will Sting for a Moment (30 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 21
“Ugh… ughh….”
What on earth is going on right now?
Why am I spinning around and around, tightly embraced in that bastard Emperor Justin’s arms?!
Furious, I shot a fierce glare at Rosalynne, the maid-in-waiting who had started all this trouble.
Sensing my gaze, Rosalynne clenched both fists, pumped them up energetically, and cheered, “Go, miss! You can do it!” before giving the Grand Duke such a sharp, bulging-eyed look that his eyeballs nearly popped out.
The Grand Duke merely leaned casually against the windowsill, watching indifferently as the Emperor and I danced. He showed no intention whatsoever of rescuing me.
Tch. I should have been more wary of that maid-in-waiting.
From the very moment Rosalynne, with that suspicious look on her face, insisted I wear this lace-ruffled, petal-like dress and practice dancing, something had felt off.
She even went so far as to place a tiara studded with rubies—like stars—on my head and hang its matching ruby necklace around my neck, cackling to herself like a witch plotting some sinister scheme.
While teaching me the waltz steps, she kept stretching her neck toward the wide-open entrance, filling the air with an inexplicable tension that steadily rose.
My long-honed instincts as a swordswoman had been warning me nonstop.
Danger was approaching. If I didn’t flee soon, I’d be utterly ruined.
I should have trusted my gut and slipped away right then and there…
That brave maid-in-waiting of ours truly had audacity.
How dare she drag the Emperor himself into my dance practice just to provoke the Grand Duke’s jealousy?
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
Hahahaha!!! She is so funny!!!!!! How she changed so much!
I love how she realized she loved him from the begining. But I die seeing him jealous of himself.
Awww
