I Ended Up Living Next Door to My Ex-Husband (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 38
“But Cedric, what if their true aim wasn’t the Grand Duchess herself… but Lilian’s Heart?”
Vincent’s voice settled lowly into the reception room.
『Lilian’s Heart』
It was a gemstone the size of a human heart, gleaming with a translucent crimson hue.
Though unremarkable in appearance, it bore within it the curse and resentment left behind by the primordial goddess Lilian upon her death.
“Only the one who possesses my heart shall gain their heart’s desire in full. Yet, as sweet as my kindness may seem, so cruel shall be the price.”
Lilian’s Heart tempted people with promises of immense wealth, power, and everything they could ever wish for.
Even knowing it would bring them to ruin, people became enthralled by it, blinded by greed.
Because of this, the entire world had nearly fallen into catastrophe on multiple occasions in ancient times.
Rulers of both the human and demon realms grew obsessed with Lilian’s Heart, and their endless wars left the land perpetually drenched in blood.
Finally, after the last great war of antiquity, the human and demon realms agreed to seal Lilian’s Heart away forever, severing all contact between their worlds.
And the duty of overseeing that seal was entrusted to twin brothers, each bearing half-human and half-demon blood.
Thus, after a long passage of time, that duty had now been inherited by Cedric and Vincent, descendants of those twin brothers.
Cedric mulled over his cousin’s words and took a slow sip of whiskey.
Then, he spoke again, languidly.
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.
