Lord Preston's Secret Tutor (47 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 39
“No, I…”
Just as she was about to refuse, Evan smiled even more brightly.
“I believe Miss Somerset is well aware that the status of the middle class has risen considerably these days.”
Caught off guard by his deft interruption, Jacqueline once again wore an expression of surprise. She still knew so little about Evan.
“Yes.”
“They aspire to aristocratic society—they long to become part of it, yet simultaneously fear being fully accepted into it.”
“Are you perhaps referring to the complicated etiquette of aristocratic society?”
At her words, Evan’s eyes sparkled. His fondness for her seemed to rise once more.
Jacqueline belatedly leaned back with a soft “Oops,” but Evan’s goodwill showed no sign of waning. He moved forward just as much as she had pulled away.
As a result, the distance between them remained exactly as it had been at first.
“Precisely. That’s why I plan to publish a book explaining aristocratic etiquette specifically for the middle class.”
“Oh…”
Jacqueline blinked blankly, caught completely off guard. It was an idea she’d never once considered—but admittedly, it sounded quite tempting.
“They wish to enter aristocratic society, yet in reality, they hesitate to take that step because of its intricate etiquette. They understand better than anyone that half-learned, clumsy manners bring nothing but disgrace.”
“I recently read an article stating that the number of middle-class attendees at social gatherings has increased exponentially. Wealthy merchants are now being invited to aristocratic-hosted events or even hosting such gatherings themselves.”

Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…

One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”

If so, that was her misunderstanding. Windsor truly didn’t care who she met.
