“Your Highness.”
Helpless, as I pretended to know, he came a step closer with a sly smile.
“It’s been a while, Lady Winters.”
“Yes, it’s been a long time, Crown Prince.”
Theresa smiled faintly at our greeting.
I poked Casian’s side with a chubby face. Since he would know more people than I did, it was a sign to send him somewhere.
However, Casian ignored my signal.
Looking at us, the Crown Prince shook his head. Somehow, it felt like he had become a troublesome younger sibling.
Nathaniel took a glass of champagne from a passing waiter and shared it with us.
“Lady Menysil, I had fun today. I was very tired from dancing after a long time.”
“The dance was so wonderful it’s hard to believe it’s been a while, Your Highness.”
Theresa praised his dancing skills with all her might. She didn’t miss a chance to glance at me either.
Hey, I’m not interested in him.
It was an obvious signal, but it was so cute that I couldn’t help but laugh.
Casian was also looking at the situation with a giggle, wondering what was so funny.
As I laughed and chatted, I strangely felt that many men were circling around us.
And Teresa was at the center of it.
‘I want to ask her to dance, but I can’t because the Crown Prince is here.’
I thought about getting away from Nathaniel for a while, but I changed my mind.
If I wanted something, I had to take any risk.
I had no intention of handing Theresa over to a man who couldn’t even ask her to dance because he might be disliked by the mere Crown Prince.
At that moment.
A tall man approached us. I quickly scanned him from top to bottom.
Handsome face, broad shoulders, and even the clothes he was wearing were highend.
“Lady Menysil.”
On top of that, his voice was good. Glancing at Casian, she nodded her head.
He passed for now.
Success with the Crown Prince would mean wealth, honor, and even love all at once; it would be the best choice. However, it was also good to meet various men and find someone who appealed to Theresa’s heart.
First, it was important that she met someone else.
“My name is Count Dmitri. This is my first time at such a party as I always stay in my domain.”
“Nice to meet you, Count.”
He cleared his throat nervously and bowed.
“I may not be able to match the Crown Prince’s dancing skills, but would you dance with me?”
It was perfect. I almost applauded Count Dmitri, who respectfully requested a dance while giving credit to Nathaniel.
Theresa, perhaps unable to refuse his offer as it was his first time at such an occasion, nodded her head.
“It is an honor, Count.”
The dance with Nathaniel was, due to his status as the Crown Prince, a situation hard to refuse; this time, it was solely Theresa’s will.
My heart beat fast as they headed to the dance floor.
Casian also watched their figures with a satisfied expression. She must have been thinking the same as I was.
It was a big deal for Theresa, who had always been trapped in her own framework, hunched over, and unable to speak her mind, just looking after Maximilian.
“It will make you cry, princess.”
The one who spoiled my emotion was Nathaniel. He leaned against a pillar, arms crossed, looking at the dance floor.
“I’ll never forget today’s favor until I die.”
“You better keep that promise. The moment that rumor reaches my ears, your life is over.”
I turned my gaze away from his bright, madnessfilled eyes, chuckling. Casian had disappeared at some point.
We silently watched their dance.
I was soaked in the emotion that surged again, and Nathaniel added a cynical touch.
“Keep thinking about others, and you’ll get hit in the back of the head.”
“I’ll take care of the back of my head, so don’t worry.”
Honestly, the one who needed to be careful was not me, but the Crown Prince.
In the original work, he was greatly betrayed by his trusted aide, and he was unable to prevent Theresa’s death.
Daring to talk about backstabbing in front of me?
“Lady Jaina Winters.”
I closed my mouth again at his cold response.
This damn mouth.
I keep speaking as I did to Maximilian. Originally, I was not like this.
No matter how much I thought about it, I seemed to have lost my personality because of the sweet potato in the original work.
“I misspoke, Your Highness.”
“You should not forget that you only have one life.”
“Yes, yes.”
Certainly! Below is the English translation of the provided text, following your instructions:
Looking at me, who answered indifferently, Nathaniel let out a long sigh. Then he tapped my shoulder and said,
“Let’s dance too.”
“Really? Us? Why?”
I almost fainted in surprise at his words. As Nathaniel’s expression became fierce, I brought my hands together and bowed my head cautiously.
“Thank you, Your Highness. It is an honor for our family.”
“Don’t make a fuss, just take my hand quickly.”
Ah, I don’t want to get involved like this.
I grumbled inside and placed my hand in his.
Nathaniel lightly pulled me and headed toward the center of the floor. People’s eyes turned to us.
“You don’t have to dance with me.”
“If you don’t, only Menisil’s Grace will be in trouble.”
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.
