From the content of her speech, it seemed like she had given a history lesson, but it was unclear how the topic of locusts came up.
‘No, I think I know.’
Meiana thought.
With the end of summer and the inability to catch cicadas, Ariante’s recent interest shifted to insects—like locusts and fireflies. Ash probably asked Ariante what she was up to these days, and she might not have answered that she was trying to catch locusts…
If her speculation was correct, it seemed that Ash understood Ariante’s preferences well.
“Do you like Professor Ash, my lady?”
“I love him! There was no homework today. Ash said I’m a student who memorizes very well.”
“That’s fortunate. You did very well, my lady.”
Meiana divided the finely braided hair threads back into two sides, then wrapped a thick pink ribbon around them.
“It looks like a mouse!”
Ariante pointed to the mirror and laughed.
“Do you not like it?”
“No, no! I like it. Hey, Meiana. Since we finished studying today, can we play pretend again? We can’t go outside, but we can still play pretend inside. Like we used to, with Father too. Okay?”
“Pretend play…”
As Meiana’s words subtly blurred, Ariante quickly seized the hem of Meiana’s sleeve.
“Um… Well. Dinner, is ready… The cook says so.”
“I see… Um. Alright. Dinner.”
Thinking about Cediloy, whose face had become awkward and embarrassed due to the awkwardness, she suddenly regained her composure. What about herself? Even Meiana couldn’t bear the awkwardness. Ariante enjoyed it, but…
‘It won’t work now. No, pretend play should be assigned to Vaintina or Bridget for a while.’
Meiana said.
“My lady, let’s play pretend next time. We also don’t have much time.”
“Why don’t we have time! I don’t have homework today, I told you.”
“I know. However, today, there will be a guest who will visit you, my lady.”
Ariante’s body moved as if bouncing off the stool. Her enlarged pupils were sparkling with anticipation.
“A guest? Who? Who is coming?”
“Guest? Who? Who’s coming?”
“It’s Lord Cyrus. I thought it might occupy your thoughts throughout the lesson if I mentioned it in the morning, so I kept it a secret.”
“No way! Really? Cyrus is coming? When? Now? Is he coming soon?”
Meiana nodded as if to confirm Ariante’s question while checking the clock.
“Yes, he should be arriving soon.”
As if waiting was too scary for the words to fall, a lively noise was heard from outside. Mixed with the sounds of children chattering and horse hooves, Ariante, with a flushed face from excitement, immediately rushed outside.
“Cyrus!”
Ariante’s voice, gripping the railing, resonated loudly through the hall. Cyrus, who was following behind, raised his head in surprise. When his eyes met Ariante’s, he smiled and shook hands.
“Ariante, I’ve come to visit. I brought Umbrose and Crony too.”
The two children who followed Cyrus shyly shook hands.
Ariante couldn’t wait until her friends came up. She sprinted down the corridor like an arrow, slid backward on the railing, and slipped down like an arrow.
“Lady! Oh my goodness!”
Meiana, who followed after, screamed in shock, but Ariante was already far away. She then laughed heartily in front of her three friends with her mouth wide open.
“Welcome, Cyrus! And Umbrose, Crony too!”
Umbrose, who had wide-open eyes, couldn’t believe the expression on Ariante’s face as she slid down the curved railing.
“Ariante, amazing… I was so surprised…”
“I come down like this every time! Stairs are annoying. Oh, Umbrose, do you want to try too?”
Just then, Meiana, who quickly descended the stairs, shouted in horror.
“Absolutely not, my lady!”
“This is my playroom!”
Ariante spread her arms and proudly declared. Cyrus, Umbrose, and Crony, who followed her in, were astonished at the lavishly decorated playroom.
“Ariante, this rocking horse! It’s so beautiful. Can I ride it?”
Crony said. The white and sturdy ceramic rocking horse was captivating enough for the children’s eyes. The saddle adorned with gold, decorated with jewels of various colors, and the reins and bridle crafted from genuine leather—all vividly made legs that seemed ready to run out at any moment.
“You can ride it! But I haven’t ridden it in a long time.”
“Wow, there are so many fairy tale books. Have you read all of these?”
This time, Cyrus asked. Ariante proudly showed her favorite fairy tale book and answered.
“I haven’t read all of them. But I read a little bit every night before bed.”
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?
Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?
Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.
The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.
Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
