Miss Pendleton (Update to C.222 END) - Chapter 38
Ian left the house early the next morning.
He walked for about thirty minutes and turned onto Grosvenor Street. As he walked down the quiet street, the Pendleton townhouse soon came into view. He stood on the opposite side of the road, fixing his gaze on the third-floor window where Lady Pendleton’s room was located.
He stood motionless until he could see Lady Pendleton’s figure, or even her shadow. An hour later, the closed curtains of her room window opened. He stared intently at the window.
But contrary to his expectations, what appeared at the window was a maid wearing a servant’s uniform. The maid threw the window wide open. Then she leaned her upper body out the window and waved her arms in the air as if to check the temperature.
But the maid, who had been casually scanning outside, suddenly stared intently in Ian’s direction. She had discovered Ian.
He soon realized that she was the maid who had delivered the letter just before he left London. The maid who had said something quite bewildering to him. She looked at him for a moment, then made a gesture with her fist clenched and index finger extended, as if stabbing downwards. It seemed to mean stay right there.
Soon, the front door opened and the maid came out. She crossed the carriage road and walked over to where Ian was, bowing politely.
“Lingering in front of your beloved’s house from early morning. How romantic, sir.”
“Is Lady Pendleton well?”
“In terms of health, she’s fine. But there are problems other than health.”
“You mean the nouveau riche from America.”
“So you know.”
Ian stood silently and lit a cigarette. The shadows under his eyes deepened. The maid looked at him for a moment, then asked:
“Have you met Mr. Price by any chance?”
“So that fellow’s name is Price?”
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.

It is so heartbreaking that Laura went through all the terrible things since her childhood.
It’s progressing a bit slowly, but nicely… I hope there won’t be unnecessary distances between them due to misunderstandings.
I think this trip to Bath will be good to Laura. Meeting these women will inspire her to be more confident. I just hope her ex and Mr. Dalton don’t ruin it.
