Lord Preston's Secret Tutor (47 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 162
“Hmm, not yet, young master.”
“…I see.”
Benjamin sulkily scanned the room once more. William, who had been reaching for the next letter, suddenly paused.
He recognized the familiar seal imprinted on the wax and lifted his head with a solemn expression.
“It’s here.”
“!”
Benjamin hurried over. The boy, too, stared tensely at the envelope. On its surface was inscribed the name of the sender Benjamin had been waiting for so eagerly.
‘Yorkshire Boarding School’
Swallow.
William stood up, holding the envelope.
“We should show this to the Marquess first.”
“…Okay.”
Benjamin was terribly curious about the contents inside, but he didn’t dare open it without Windsor’s permission. The boy’s eyes grew increasingly anxious.
He followed William and asked,
“If we hold it up to the sunlight, do you think we could see what’s written inside? If my grades are bad, Uncle will be disappointed. But I did my very best, William—I might have had questions I didn’t know, but I didn’t make careless mistakes on the ones I did know. You said Uncle wouldn’t scold me then. But is that really true? Will he truly not be disappointed? What if he actually is? What if he says I’m unworthy of being the Preston heir?”
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
Intro
As an enchantress, Su Heng possesses captivating eyes and charming beauty, easily manipulating the joys and sorrows of living beings at her fingertips.
But to enchant a god, making him taste the bitterness of love’s separation, long-lasting resentment, unattainable desires, and inability to let go…
Do you dare?
Su Heng assists a divine lord in his cultivation, aiming to make him experience all the sufferings of love, so that he can attain the Great Dao.
Only after being chased down from the heavens by the divine lord, confined and completely possessed by him, does she realize how successful she has been.
The once gentle and polite youth has transformed into someone she no longer recognizes.

Ha, all these noblewomen can do is gossip about others and be jealous. You’re not doing anything useful either.
