Selected as the New Stepmother (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 87
Rublion was young, but old enough to understand the conversation between those two. The man who resembled his uncle. The Crown Princess talking about that boy who had been abandoned.
He did not want to know, and for the boy who had avoided learning such things, this was an unbearably cruel moment.
rustle.
Rublion, in shock, could not even register that someone was approaching. He simply let tears fall helplessly, pulled along by his emotions.
He needed to get away from here right now to stop hearing their conversation—but he could not.
The flower in his hand dropped with a thud. His hands trembled too much to hold anything.
That was when someone seized the wrist of the tear-streaked boy. It was Lienna.
The girl raised one finger to her lips, then quietly tugged on the boy’s wrist, beginning to pull him in the opposite direction.
“Lienna…”
“Shh. They might hear.”
Lienna replied in a voice as small as a squirrel’s, glancing back repeatedly as she walked. The early summer insects fluttered up, fleeing from the skin of the boy and girl.
After walking for a long while, Lienna emerged from the garden and silently watched Rublion, still lost in thought, biting his lip. After careful consideration, she spoke.
“My lord. Please tell the Duke.”
“…”
“Send those people far away. That’s the answer.”
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
