Miss Pendleton (Update to C.222 END) - Chapter 163
“Thank you, Doctor McKenzie.”
“Why are you thanking me for your good health?”
“Because the ability to diagnose lies with you. Thank you. Truly… it was worth coming all this way.”
Tears welled up in the corners of Laura’s eyes. She pulled out a handkerchief and dabbed at them.
“Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule. I’ll work on gaining weight and come back. Well then…”
Laura rose from her chair to return home.
“Madam.”
“Yes?”
“…Please sit for a moment.”
Laura, who had been standing awkwardly, sat back down. He folded his arms and stared at her intently. His gaze unnerved her. It was as if the late Victor Hugo were glaring at her—how could it not be intimidating?
“I’ve known of Mrs. Dalton for some time. Even living buried in a mountain valley, as long as one holds onto the threads of the world to make a living, it’s impossible to remain ignorant of its affairs.”
“Oh, yes…”
“Everyone said that Mr. Dalton married a penniless woman from a ruined family. Her name was Laura Pendleton, a lowly illegitimate child who took her mother’s surname.”
“…”
“People whispered wherever they went. A troubled marriage leads to a troubled life, they said. Not some orchard peasant, but the heir of Yorkshire making such a choice was madness. And they’re right. Conservative views often carry insights into reality. I thought to myself, Mr. Dalton made a terribly foolish decision.”
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.
