In just a few months, she gained precious people who trusted her, even though she was a dreadful villain, along with the citizens who cried together on the streets during the epidemic, the craftsmen who acknowledged her as the empress in the shabby tavern, and even the unknown woman who faced a bitter death in Baller’s hands today.
Numerous people flashed through her mind.
‘My people. My allies. I have made connections on my own terms. I don’t need to be swayed by the past life! I will do what I can and help as many people as possible, preventing meaningless deaths! By doing so, someday, I might spend a quiet life with Petdant.’
Seeing the gifts invading even the bedroom due to a lack of space in the reception room, Baller couldn’t control her excited heart.
For hours, the priests confirmed the curse status one by one, unable to touch them despite being right in front of her.
Finally, after receiving the assessment that everyone was safe, they were moved to Baller’s residence.
Baller immediately opened the large box presented by Leopold.
The box itself was a luxurious item, but inside were items of immeasurable value compared to the other gifts.
Baller, who had been surrounded by luxury since childhood, had the insight to recognize what was a good item.
‘They mentioned Gongja, right? Stepbrothers. Then is Mom a noble from Valius? It was said that she was a special envoy from Valius. It’s a name I’ve never seen in the original work.’
Baller suddenly became curious about the identity of the unfamiliar man who appeared, but as she looked at the large pendant adorned with a 100% pure emerald without a trace of impurity, she involuntarily forgot about any other thoughts.
‘Even in my previous life, it was rare to see such a pure emerald. Valius Empire? How wealthy are they? Just selling the things in this box could cover living expenses for several decades, couldn’t it? Still, it’s larger than the dowry for Henri.’
Due to the extravagant spending caused by Shimshimi’s extravagance, Henri is currently trying to minimize expenses as much as possible. Moreover, even those small expenses are going towards defense spending for the turbulent border region.
Knowing this situation well, Leopold intentionally prepared such gifts to showcase the wealth of the Valius Empire and scratch Henri’s heart. However, Baller, who knows nothing about these circumstances, felt her mood rising higher and higher as she examined the items in the box one by one.
After feeling like she passed through the clouds upon seeing the large yellow diamond, Henri visited Baller’s residence.
“Oh, I was just about to dispose of that box. It worked out well.”
“Dispose of it?”
“Yeah. I’m going to return it to Leopold.”
“Why?”
“Why?”
Looking at Baller as if she were pathetic, Henri began persuading her with a gentle tone.
“Isn’t the gift too extravagant? Choose one appropriate thing and return the rest.”
While wanting to shout that the gifts were meant to compensate for the static atmosphere, Henri restrained herself and tried to soothe Baller with a sweet tone.
However, Baller, who had been briefly forgetting her troubles due to the rare attention and precious gifts, had no intention of following his words.
“This is my gift, isn’t it? I don’t want to return it. Can’t I receive gifts as I please?
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.
