Sister, I'm the Queen This Life (330 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 188
“My sole heir. The one and only successor to my throne.”
These were the words Leo III always uttered when doting on Alfonso. It was also the source of boundless pride for Queen Marguerite—the bittersweet pride that, even without the king’s affection, her son remained the kingdom’s only legitimate heir, and she, the mother of the future king.
Beneath the wings of those two figures, Alfonso had spent his entire life honing himself, firmly believing he would one day become the next ruler of Etruria.
He endured grueling lessons, difficult examinations, and painful daily routines.
He was destined to be king, and kings had to learn more, understand more, and endure more than ordinary men.
He accepted every forbidden act and every suffocating rule as burdens only he could bear. Even his initial efforts to suppress his feelings for Ariadne were part of this discipline.
The royal heir could not chase love alone. For the revival of the dynasty and the prosperity of the realm, he had to marry a princess of suitable bloodline and sufficient dowry. Yet…
“Cesare de Carlo. The eldest son of Leo III, elder brother of Alfonso de Carlo.”
Thud.
It felt as though an eggshell had cracked.
Alfonso was no longer unique. He was no longer the one and only person responsible for the throne. He could be replaced at any moment; the duties and privileges he believed were his alone were not truly his.
One of the core pillars defining Alfonso de Carlo had just crumbled.
Watching Prince Alfonso freeze like a stone statue, Grand Duchess Larisa wore a childlike yet cruel smile. It was the selfish gratification of an infant—delighted by her influence over another, utterly heedless of consequences.
In truth, what Leo III had granted Cesare was not recognition as a prince, but merely acknowledgment as the king’s nephew. Despite his new surname, Cesare de Carlo remained nothing more than the second in line to the throne, trailing behind Prince Alfonso.
But Larisa, driven by her desire to wound Alfonso, deliberately concealed this crucial detail.
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.
