Sister, I'm the Queen This Life (330 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 77
“Your Highness, the nature of the Etruscan lands is truly beautiful!”
While taking a rest break during their journey, the prince and members of the royal household had set up portable tables and chairs beside a clearing next to the forest. Grand Duchess Larisa, having stepped down from her carriage, confidently approached the gathering with her entourage and spoke up.
It was as though the Etruscan lands were hers to rule as future queen, and the prince was her betrothed—thus, Prince Alfonso naturally ought to welcome her.
Prince Alfonso, with an impassive face, adhered flawlessly to etiquette without the slightest error, pulling out a chair before him to prepare a seat for Grand Duchess Larisa.
“Please sit, Your Grace.”
Larisa seated herself proudly in the chair Alfonso had offered. She no longer even made an effort to speak the Etruscan language.
Instead, she made a strange effort of her own: whenever she had spare time, she would approach Alfonso, cling tightly to his side, and talk incessantly.
“Is the southern palace beautiful?”
“It is merely a small palace to spend winter in. It is not a place worthy of Your Grace’s admiration—please do not set your expectations too high.”
Alfonso had once lavishly praised the beauty of the southern palace to Ariadne, but he had no desire to do the same for Larisa.
He neither wished to flatter her with pleasant tales nor felt any urge to boast about his possessions to her.
Moreover, if he carelessly called the southern palace beautiful, and the temperamental Larisa ended up disappointed upon seeing it in person, the burden of having to soothe her would be a headache he wished to avoid.
Alfonso mechanically passed tea snacks and black tea, in that exact order, to Larisa once she was seated. It was the standard hostly courtesy a gentleman would extend to a guest—or a fiancé to his fiancée. But Larisa interpreted it differently.
“You remembered whether I add milk first or pour the tea first! I’m overjoyed!”
Larisa beamed brightly as she gazed at Alfonso. Her plain features and slightly aged appearance made her exaggeratedly enthusiastic display of joy—akin to that of a child—seem oddly jarring.
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
