Liurian took a heavy breath and clenched both hands tightly. With that, he endured his raging emotions and moved his firm lips as if he were a stone.
“There will be a victory party in three days. It is a place for me, and as it’s a party hosted directly by the Emperor, everyone will gather for me.”
“…….”
“Thorough preparation is needed so that you do not tarnish my reputation on that day. This means that childish tricks like yesterday’s won’t do.”
His icy voice swept across the garden once.
His message was not difficult. The victory party was also something Evelia knew about. What she did not understand was why he was telling her this.
“……Why are you telling me this?”
“Why? How should I interpret that word?”
He sharply raised an eyebrow at the question she hesitantly asked. The more he did, the more uncomfortable Evelia felt.
The fact that there would be a victory party in three days was known to the nobles outside the imperial palace. Did he think she would not know such a fact?
Even though it was just for show, she was still the crown prince’s consort of this country.
Was she seen as just that kind of person to him, someone who would not even know a fact that all the nobles knew?
Evelia exhaled a heavy breath. The longer she faced him, the more suffocating her chest became, as if a peach pit was stuck in her throat.
She wanted to avoid him now.
“……If you mean preparation for the dignity of a member of the royal family and the crown prince’s consort, I will prepare diligently enough not to be an embarrassment to the royal family.”
“It’s nice to hear that. Not only preparation, but your behavior at the banquet should also do your best so as not to tarnish my reputation.”
“Don’t worry, I will only keep my place quietly so as not to attract people’s attention.”
“Keeping your place quietly? What do you mean by that?”
Liurian laughed as if he couldn’t believe it. The one who was perplexed was Evelia.
She looked at him, momentarily forgetting her miserable feelings. He was frowning as if he had heard something he shouldn’t have.
She could not understand what was wrong.
As always, she had only promised to keep her place like a scarecrow.
Of course, she would attend the party with Rellia and not make an issue of all his actions that belittled her, even flauntingly.
It wasn’t the first or second time, so he should have understood the meaning in her words. Yet, he still couldn’t hide his displeasure.
“I don’t understand what you want to say to me.”
“I don’t know what explanation you want from me.”
“Three days from now, there’s a scheduled victory party, which I know as well.”
“What’s the problem, then? I plan to visit the crown princess palace before heading to the banquet hall on that day. So I’d like it if preparations were finished before I arrive.”
“If you have something to command me on that day, tell me now. If rumors were to spread that you were looking for the crown princess palace outside the banquet hall with young Lilia…….”
Evelia let out a shallow sigh and moved her lips with an indifferent face. It was a movement that could only be described as mechanical.
He who had been quietly watching her suddenly rubbed his forehead and let out a sigh.
“It seems that my queen is not content with making me an indifferent husband but is also determined to make me an unfit crown prince.”
Words mixed with hollow laughter were all mocking her. Nevertheless, Evelia couldn’t say a word.
His eyes, as if about to devour her any moment, flashed dangerously.
“You will attend the victory party with me. From the moment the party begins until it ends, you will stay by my side.”
He, who had briefly stopped speaking, flashed his eyes and looked at her intently. His gaze was as if he could devour her at any moment.
The expression on Evelia’s face in front of him distorted miserably, moment by moment.
Liurian watched it all, curling his lips in amusement.
“You’ll be the queen, not the young lady.”
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
