Miss Pendleton (Update to C.222 END) - Chapter 180
“Why a blueberry pie? You don’t even like blueberries that much.”
At noon tea time, Ian, sitting on the study sofa and idly holding his wife’s hand, looked curiously at the golden-brown pie placed on the cake stand.
“Mrs. Starr sent it this morning through a servant. I gave her some fruit yesterday, and she baked it early as a thank-you.”
“That’s kind of her. She must be busy with the baby.”
“It seems quite tough, doesn’t it?”
“It’s completely different from when Harry was born. The baby cries when held, cries when laid down, cries when rocked, and even cries when sung to. The only time it doesn’t cry is when it’s asleep, but what’s the point? It wakes up every two hours.”
“…That must be exhausting.”
“Oliver, Mrs. Starr—both had dark circles under their eyes. Harry even slept in the garden hammock in the backyard. Said catching a cold is better than not sleeping at all.”
Laura gave a faint smile. Ian sensed a trace of melancholy in her demeanor.
“Still not feeling well?”
Laura nodded slightly. Ian put his arm around her shoulders.
“If it’s too hard, go lie down in bed. It’s fine to rest for a day.”
“I rested a lot yesterday. Besides, lying down all day makes it worse. Doing something is better.”
Ian looked at his wife’s pale face with concern.
“Shall I put a warm compress on your abdomen?”
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
Trigger warning: All men in this novel are yandere style.
