“I have one thing I want to ask; how did you build such a body?”
“Oh, my body?”
Glancing down at herself, Artia responded, “There’s a way, of course.”
Owen raised an eyebrow.
His eyes flickered like a crow that had discovered a jewel.
“What is it?”
“Curious, aren’t you? Shall I tell you?”
Artia advised him, who desired a better body than he currently had.
“Knowing your own body is the most important thing.”
Originally, Artia had come to inform Owen about her pregnancy. She had visited his office intending to suggest that it might be good to go to the north, but since Owen asked about his body, it seemed better to temporarily delay her purpose and offer advice.
Owen expressed his wish for improved stamina and a larger physique.
Artia briefly examined Owen’s body.
“Can you lift your arm straight up?”
“Why?”
“That way, I can check the condition of your body.”
After a moment’s hesitation, Owen extended his arm as she had requested.
While inspecting his body, Artia raised an eyebrow.
“This side has a lot of tension in the muscles.”
Artia touched the problematic area along his shoulder line.
“If I loosen this upper part, it will likely relieve much more than it is now. Since it’s connected to the neck, please pay attention while I release it manually.”
“How?”
Artia grabbed her own neck and demonstrated how to release it manually.
“Like this?”
Owen tried to imitate Artia, but it didn’t look right.
Unable to follow correctly, Artia quietly watched him for a moment and then placed her hand on his neck.
With just a little adjustment, Artia effortlessly loosened his stiff muscles.
“!”
Owen felt a sudden flash in his eyes. It felt like his body was becoming languid, as if he were soaking in a warm bath.
Even though she had only touched him briefly, it felt so refreshing.
“It’s truly amazing. I think I understand why you’re famous.”
Unconsciously, Owen closed his eyes.
“Yes. Let me continue to release this area. I’ll also provide information about your diet and exercise routine. Please visit the gym sometime.”
“I’ll do that.”
Looking at the paper and pen on the desk, Artia spoke.
“May I use these for a moment?”
“Feel free.”
Artia, following Owen’s desired direction, wrote down a diet plan and routine for him.
Owen admired her deep knowledge. His respect for Artia was growing.
“Where did you learn all this?”
“Self-taught.”
“You learned it on your own?”
“Yes, I learned by trial and error.”
Artia lived in an era overflowing with knowledge and information. In such a world, learning and studying for decades with enthusiasm was nothing for Artia.
The problem was that for him to change direction quickly in the way he wanted, Artia needed to be by his side to provide care.
Artia cautiously spoke after offering the direction he desired.
“I believe I will soon need to go up to the north.”
“The north?”
“Yes. I’m pregnant.”
?”
Owen looked at Artia in surprise.
“Pregnant?”
His gaze naturally turned to Artia’s belly.
“Yes. I want to give birth to the child in the north. Of course, we will continue to stay in touch. Feel free to contact me whenever you need.”
“It seems like you’ve already made up your mind completely.”
When Artia mentioned going up to the north, Owen felt a subtle sense of disappointment.
“Still, wouldn’t it be better to stay in a warm place? The north is cold.”
Artia smiled brightly.
“I appreciate your concern, but considering various circumstances, I think going to the north is the right decision. I can’t stay here indefinitely… ”
Artia politely spoke, trying not to touch his feelings as much as possible.
‘Even if I go to the north, it shouldn’t harm him. I can’t stop it.’
Owen, who had gradually developed respect for Artia, wanted to somehow keep her with him, but there was no other way.
“Take a few more days to think about it. Your thoughts might change.”
While Artia was asleep, Kassus, who had briefly stepped out of the room, returned and realized that she was gone.
“…What? Where did she go?”
In his hands were cups of tea made with ingredients known for their health benefits.
Kassus had personally discovered and brewed the tea, wanting to provide it without involving others.
He wanted to see Artia’s expression as she drank the tea he made himself.
However, Kassus was perplexed when he found that Artia was nowhere to be seen.
He waited a little longer, but Artia did not return.
He asked the palace staff about Artia’s whereabouts as he walked through the corridor.
“Well, I didn’t see her go out…”
“I didn’t see her either.”
Even the palace staff did not know where she had gone.
‘Where could she be? Is she in the gym?’
Thinking, Kassus headed to the gym.
He remembered that she was always in the gym if something happened.
Kassus entered the gym.
Today, as always, it was crowded. The interior of the gym in the Star Pavilion was spacious, but it was also packed with people.
It was a moment when Kassus keenly felt Artia’s influence.
Kassus approached Kesha, who was on the first floor of the gym, and asked about Artia’s whereabouts.
“Madam? No, if she had come, I would have noticed. I haven’t seen her.”
“Oh no.”
The offer to accompany her to the restroom was genuine.
But she disappeared after going out for a moment.
Kassus was on the verge of going crazy.
“Where could the madam have gone?”
Without answering Kesha’s question, Kassus turned his steps elsewhere.
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
