“What do you want to do?”
Jiho cut the steak into bite-sized pieces and moved it to Isu’s plate.
“If you’re curious, eat quickly. I have plans after you finish eating.”
Isu looked at Jiho with a somewhat uneasy expression.
Jiho picked up a fork with rolled-up bolognese and brought it to Isu’s mouth.
“Oh, give it a try.”
“I’ll eat it myself.”
Isu took the fork Jiho offered and put it in her mouth.
“Since I’ll eat on my own, you should eat too.”
Jiho, without eating, prepared various things for Isu to eat.
“You can feed me too.”
“Do I have to do that?”
Isu asked with a laugh.
“I like these things subtly cheesy.”
Isu, who couldn’t stand cheesiness well, made an awkward expression.
“Being cheesy and having chicken skin is part of love. We need to make more effort.”
From then on, Isu’s fork went into Jiho’s mouth, and Jiho’s fork went into Isu’s mouth.
Even Isu, who was reluctant at first, eventually opened her mouth and accepted what Jiho fed her.
It was terribly inefficient but a very sweet dinner.
Finishing the meal, Isu felt ticklish all the way to her toes.
“Jiho, now tell me what you want to do.”
Moving to the sofa, Isu spoke.
She had been curious throughout dinner.
Since she had promised to do anything Jiho wanted, she had to listen no matter what he said.
“What I really want to do needs to be done at night.”
Because of Jiho’s words, Isu’s heart kept pounding.
Isu looked at Jiho’s lips only, waiting for an answer.
“Why are you in such a hurry?”
Isu asked, curious and burning inside.
“That’s for later. When will you sing the birthday song?”
“Oh, right!”
Jiho had forgotten what he wanted to do while thinking about it.
Isu placed the cake on the sofa table.
She stuck candles into the round chocolate cake one by one.
Turning off all the lights except the bedside lamp, Isu said.
“Jiho, I’ll turn on the candles, so get ready to make a wish.”
“A wish?”
“Yeah! I’ve lit candles and made wishes every birthday. Haven’t you?”
Jiho burst into laughter.
“So have any of your wishes come true?”
“Some have come true, and some haven’t, but there’s nothing wrong with making a wish. I can see a full moon just by wishing.”
Jiho looked at Isu cutely and brushed her chin with his hand.
‘Has he been so earnestly wishing as if making a wish while looking at the moon?’
Staring at Isu as if contemplating something, Jiho finally spoke.
“Yeah. I’ve decided on my wish.”
Jiho sat up straight in front of the cake with a poised posture.
Like a praying person, he clasped both hands together and held them out.
As Isu lit the candles, yellow light flickered in the darkness.
Adding three candles to the twinkling city lights created a cozy and romantic atmosphere.
“Phew. It’s quite embarrassing, but it’s your birthday after all. Hehehe. Hehe.”
Isu let out a small sigh and cleared her throat.
Singing a birthday song in front of someone was a first for Isu, and even before singing, her face was flushed.
Jiho smiled as he looked at Isu.
“Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday, my beloved Jiho.”
Feeling awkward, Isu clapped her hands quietly and sang the song to the end.
Jiho watched Isu singing with her face blushing, finding it adorable.
After the song ended, Jiho lightly kissed Isu’s cheek.
“Thank you.”
“Ugh, it’s really embarrassing. I won’t ask you to sing for me in the future.”
Isu fanned her blushing face with her hand, feeling the heat.
“Now make a wish.”
Jiho felt extremely curious about what wish Isu, who seemed to lack nothing, would make.
Despite the embarrassment, Isu’s eyes sparkled.
“Yeah. My wish is something only you can grant. I hope you’ll make it come true.”
“Me?”
Surprised, Isu, with widened eyes, looked at Jiho and asked.
Isu rolled her eyes but couldn’t guess what Jiho was thinking.
“My wish is… no matter what happens, you’ll believe in me.”
Jiho’s eyes, now free of laughter, became deep and serious.
Isu, also eager to know what the wish was, tensed up.
“Is it easy for you to believe in me?”
“Yeah. Why would that be difficult? It’s so obvious.”
Nodding several times, Isu was sincere.
Not only did she believe in Jiho’s feelings toward her, but she also had faith that he would never disappoint her.
Unbeknownst to Isu, that trust had solidified within her over time.
“Fortunately.”
Jiho’s smile gently lifted the corners of his mouth.
He hoped Isu wouldn’t be distressed by any unreasonable rumors.
Jiho was confident that he would never betray the trust Isu had in him.
“In return, my wish has no expiration date. So, never forget it.”
He hoped for a lifetime of unwavering trust.
Although Isu had said it was easy, she knew that trusting someone absolutely was not simple.
“Got it. I promise.”
“Thank you, Isu.”
Jiho smiled contentedly as he looked at Isu.
I didn’t expect an answer so simple, but seeing confident Isu was also moving.
“But why did you make such a wish?”
“No matter what happens, I hope we won’t waver.”
“If I don’t trust you, who else would I trust?”
Even imagining that the trust in Jiho might waver made Isu’s heart ache.
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.
