He Who Covets the Abandoned Bride (10 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 163
An opportunity to approach the count was not easily created.
Yet, it would be unnatural to impatiently force her way into the throng of others on her own.
Especially since even members of the royal family were present, it was only natural that someone holding merely a baronial title would find it difficult to smoothly join the conversation.
But as the chance stubbornly refused to appear, Laila grew anxious—so much so that even while chatting with the group of ladies who had gathered nearby, she could not truly focus on the situation at hand.
Noticing Laila’s restlessness, Adrian watched her with concern until he finally led her away from the dining table they had just finished.
He then took a wine glass from a passing servant and placed it firmly into Laila’s hand.
“Don’t be so anxious. We haven’t even left the room yet. Getting too worked up might ruin what was already going well.”
“…Was I that obvious?”
“You’ve been trying so hard to stand out ever since last time, haven’t you?”
Caught red-handed with her feelings laid bare, Laila gave an awkward smile. She even wondered whether Isabella, who seemed just as perceptive as Adrian, had noticed it too.
Yet just as her gaze drifted toward Isabella again, Adrian teased her playfully.
“You’re far too conscious of Isabella. Could it be that you like her more than me?”
“What? Why would you say such a mischievous thing…?”
Frowning slightly at the corners of her eyes, Laila plainly showed how much she disliked the jest, prompting Adrian to chuckle softly. It was right after that moment Laila suddenly flinched at the sound of someone approaching them.
“Good—I see you two are enjoying yourselves, at least.”
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.
