“Me, an old-fashioned person… ”
Ginevra could boast that in this lifetime, she did her best for the children. Yet, there was still a problem.
“I gave her a house, half of the property, but is she still afraid of being abandoned?”
No, that couldn’t be it. Instead, it seemed like Larisa’s original personality was the issue.
“The child lacks audacity.”
Ginevra couldn’t understand Larisa because she herself could be audacious whenever she wanted.
If Larisa didn’t want to go to the Knight Academy, why didn’t she say so? Ginevra visited a bookstore after a long time.
“Welcome, Duke Rodante. It’s been a while.”
“How to raise a child opposite of oneself.”
“Pardon?”
“Do you have a book like that?”
The bookstore owner adjusted his glasses and spoke.
“Do you happen to be looking for a book like this?”
[Syndrome of a Good Child]Ginevra started silently reading the book on the spot. Enthralled, she nodded her head.
“Let’s go with this.”
“Yes, please sign here.”
Ginevra quickly signed the receipt and left the bookstore.
“A good child who suppresses themselves to become what their parents have set as the standard…”
Ginevra thought she needed to talk to Larisa. As always, she immediately put her thoughts into action.
Ginevra teleported to the front of Larisa’s room and knocked without hesitation.
“Yes?”
Larisa opened the door and came out, wearing a surprised expression. Her eyes widened like a crescent moon.
“Mother, what’s the matter?”
Ginevra extended her hand to Larisa.
“Can we talk for a moment?”
As Larisa took Ginevra’s hand, the two found themselves standing on the beach, filled with childhood memories. It was the white sandy beach of Lar-An, chosen as the first travel destination with Larisa.
“Wow!”
As soon as they arrived, Larisa let go of Ginevra’s hand and ran toward the beach. Her slender legs moved gracefully, resembling a deer in motion.
It felt like just yesterday when she was afraid of being abandoned, unable to let go of her hand. Now, she had grown so much. Ginevra felt a sense of nostalgia.
“Time flies, and the day she becomes a noble lady is not far off.”
Larisa ran to the water, wetting her pants, and then returned to Ginevra.
“Mother, by the way, what did you want to talk about?”
Ginevra remained silent for a moment, examining Larisa’s face. The child’s face seemed tense for some reason.
“It’s nothing much. I just wanted to talk with you.”
Upon hearing this, Larisa brightened with a warm smile.
“Sit here.”
The two sat down on the sandy beach and watched the waves crashing.
“How’s school life?”
“I’m doing well. I made a new friend named Alexander.”
“A boy?”
“Yes. There’s only one other girl in my class.”
There was no other girl on the battlefield. Ginevra began to think that Larisa might be uncomfortable only now.
“Are you not uncomfortable?”
“What do you mean?”
“The fact that you’re the only girl.”
“Not at all. Everyone is kind.”
Larisa smiled as if there were no difficulties at all.
“You’re lying.”
“…What?”
“There must be some discomfort.”
Larisa blinked silently.
“I’ve thought about what William said. Is it true?”
“What?”
“If I told you to go to the magic academy, would you really have gone?”
Larisa couldn’t respond. After a brief silence, Ginevra sighed.
“So, it’s true.”
Larisa looked bewildered and lowered her head. Ginevra didn’t know what else to say, so she could only offer an apology.
“I’m sorry.”
“What?!”
“I must have burdened you without knowing.”
“No, it’s not like that!”
Larisa denied, waving her hands.
“I just didn’t have a specific major I wanted, so, well, if anything, I just wanted to go to the department you recommended.”
“I know that you worked harder than anyone else.”
Ginevra spoke while gently stroking Larisa’s head.
“You were so dedicated that I thought you genuinely liked the Knight Academy.”
Larisa, with a teary face, said, “Is it not enough if it’s just for that reason?”
“…”
“Why do I have to decide everything on my own?”
“Lara.”
Larisa gathered her knees and buried her face. A choked voice could be heard.
“All the other kids have simple paths set by their parents. But why do you keep telling me to decide on my own?”
“Lara, that’s not what I mean.”
“I know.”
Ginevra, taken aback, hugged Larisa. With tear-streaked cheeks, Larisa quietly nestled into Ginevra’s embrace.
“I know. I know… I’m sorry.”
“Don’t apologize. You don’t need to apologize for anything.”
“I just threw a tantrum for no reason.”
“Do you even know what a tantrum is?”
Ginevra vowed to get rid of that damn parenting guide. It seemed to be the reason why Larisa grew up excessively kind.
Princess Elizabeth was summoned to the Emperor’s audience room after a long time. Although there was a separate formal audience room, the Emperor’s audience room was actually being used as a private space.
Thinking about the Emperor squirming on this couch in this room made sitting even more repulsive, but she couldn’t show it.
“You seem to be late, Your Majesty.”
The Emperor’s official, Camilla, was treating the situation as if she were the host.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
