“It’s ridiculous. The debutante at the palace is every girl’s dream of the Upris family!”
“The climax of every fairy tale is the palace ball!”
“It happens only once in a lifetime! It’s an invitation that others can’t get because it doesn’t exist!”
“You will become a splendid couple! I will make a couple as beautiful as conveying and envisioning there!”
Yu-an, regardless of the excitement and noise around him, locked eyes with Clad, who was looking at her with a tilted face, examining the invitation.
His purple eyes, gleaming with light, slowly scanned her, starting from the sparkling hem of the dress.
A beautiful dress flowed down, revealing her waist, adorned with a large ribbon of pale pink silk brighter than oyster color.
Above it, a delicate jawline connected to a slender neck. Even lightly colored pink lips.
When their eyes finally met with those black eyes that seemed like an innocent child, the owner of those black eyes approached him unexpectedly.
“I’m okay.”
Her long eyelashes flickered rapidly following the gaze of her eyes.
Yu-an briefly glanced at the invitation held in Clad’s hand.
For some reason, Volonico Upris wants her and does not give up.
That invitation is an attempt to summon her to the palace where he is.
She thought about the uncomfortable and uneasy feeling she had with him all night, but there was only one conclusion.
1st Prince Volonico.
The man who looked like a broken doll doesn’t like her husband, Clad. He intends to use her to destroy Clad.
So, she shouldn’t give him any opportunity at all.
She couldn’t expose her delicate and beautiful husband to danger anymore.
All for the sake of that ‘dream of all girls.’
“I’m really okay. What’s the point of attending something like a debutante when I’m already married? People will laugh at me. I’ll just stay here-.”
“Who would laugh at the lady? She’s so beautiful!”
“That’s right! We also want to show off our skills!”
“Madam is too humble. If it were me, I would want to flaunt my beauty and wouldn’t be able to sleep at night!”
Whether Yu-an’s refusal was seen as unnecessary humility or not, Michelle and the employees from the tailoring shop jumped in from behind, refuting.
“Beautiful and sparkling things will all be at the palace.”
“You’ve been married for quite some time after coming and seeing those gorgeous and good things! How refreshing would it be? A lady I used to work with only attended the royal ball once, but even after 10 years, she talked about it everywhere she went!”
Ignoring the unnecessary comments from those who didn’t know the situation, Yu-an earnestly looked at Clad.
The gazes of Clad and Yu-an collided and entangled in mid-air.
Yu-an hoped that Clad would quickly calm the excitement of those who didn’t know the situation.
However, from his firmly closed lips came an unexpected answer even Gustaf, the butler, hadn’t anticipated.
“Yes.”
Yu-an’s eyes squinted at the short and concise response.
She, trembling lips, moved a bit closer to him.
“I’m really fine! If it’s because of the clothes already made… If I wear this dress, just visiting Lord Leb will be enough for all of us to have a meal together-.”
“Yes, just.”
Clad, who had straightened his expected body, approached her standing nearby.
Completely overshadowed by Clad, Yu-an, who had put aside the cheers, discovered the problematic invitation and the thick book underneath it in the place where he had left.
Her nose quickly became chilly, and tears welled up.
Why.
Why does he treat me so well?
Why excessively like this.
Needlessly.
Why on earth.
“Madam! Don’t worry. The Emperor won’t commit such rudeness as before. I used to go to the palace often with my grandmother when I was young. There are so many eyes watching at the palace! There will also be guests from neighboring countries! Last time, only the closest attendants were brought here, but there’s also a formidable group guarding the Emperor at the palace. So, Madam, just stay by your husband’s side.”
“…….”
“I told you last time. If he treats you well, be thankful—just receive it.”
Suppressing the expression that wanted to distort and grimacing, she forced a smile at Henna’s reassuring voice.
The better Clad treats her, the more guilty she feels.
How should she treat him, who continues to be exposed to danger as if taking a test because of her?
Perhaps, as Henna suggested, Yu-an didn’t realize that she might be overly attentive due to Clad’s affection for his younger sister, Princess Apolline, who was the same age as the debutante.
Thinking about it, her smile became more bitter.
Thinking about the bitter and painful emotions, Yu-an realized that she couldn’t cover her feelings for him with the words ‘let’s think of him as a brother.’
Clad wasn’t a brother to Yu-an.
A brother?
Yu-an had never felt affectionate toward her cousin and brother, Frederick, not even once.
Never had the thought of wanting to kiss him with an affectionate heart crossed her mind.
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.
