If You Wish For My Death (6 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 138
Though his words were quite cruel, Cassian remained silent. He didn’t even let out a bitter laugh or show anger. He simply gazed quietly at Veronica. For a fleeting moment, it felt as though countless years had passed and returned him to this exact spot. Staring at his lonely expression, the present moment felt dreamlike.
Cassian’s lips slowly parted. Veronica stretched out both arms, pulled his neck toward her, and pressed her lips against his. Teeth clashed first, and their two bodies tangled together as they toppled over.
The impact was strong enough to jolt their bodies, yet Veronica paid no mind; she mashed her hands against his face and ground her lips against his. He seemed about to speak, parting his lips—but Veronica gave him no chance. She sucked on his lower lip, slipped her tongue through the gap, and entwined deeply with him.
The kiss was clumsy, revealing her impatience plainly. Her brows furrowed in concentration, eyes tightly shut. Afraid he might push her away, Veronica pressed against him with all her strength.
When she finally pulled her lips away, a thick breath scattered between them. Veronica looked down at his face bathed in moonlight. He stared back up at her, slightly startled. Moonlight slanted into his blue eyes, making them beautiful. Heat had gathered on his pale cheeks.
“If your feelings of love for me haven’t changed, please grant my wish. And even if they have changed, still do as I ask.”
It was a childish sort of temptation. No—something even childish pleading couldn’t achieve. The chance of him refusing was overwhelming. Yet Veronica spoke to Cassian.
“Just once… choose me.”
If this truly is the end, as you say—then just once, be on my side.
As she looked down at him with desperate longing, his damp lips parted again. Veronica imagined the words that would spill from him: gentle pleas for her to stop, arguments that this wasn’t a simple choice, or outright refusals that it simply couldn’t be done.
“But what about you?”
Yet what came from his mouth wasn’t any of those things. Instead, it was a question. Veronica was startled, hearing something entirely unexpected.
“When your plan succeeds, as you said, and Duke Harry and House Hardness remain—who will you become, Veronica?”
“I suppose… I’ll meet the fate that was always meant for me. Even if my father lives and our house survives, my future won’t change. Either I’ll go mad, or die—or go mad and die.”
“Then what meaning does that wish hold? Why must life and death balance on the same scale?”

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.

Nadia imam Chapter 150Omg veronica’s devotion towards Asar needs to be studied, and I don’t think Asar was ever capable of killing Veronica with his own hands, that’s why he always asked Cassian to do it.
