Late at night, Felix’s anxious steps wandered within the Crown Prince’s bedroom. He was unusually disheveled. Unable to bear it any longer, Caliph furrowed his brows and scowled.
“Sit down, will you?”
He had been in a bad mood all day. It was because of the Empress he met in the morning.
He had never cared for her to begin with, but today, his aversion reached a peak. How dare she summon Evelia without my knowledge.
Thinking this, he couldn’t bear it. He found her presence revolting and had stormed out of the Empress’s palace after spewing random words.
Ever since then, he had been like this. He had tried to lift his sagging spirits, but to no avail.
He felt like he should rest. So he went to the bedroom earlier than usual. But he couldn’t rest as he pleased. It was because of Felix.
Why on earth he was acting like this, he had been aimlessly pacing around the room since early evening.
That was the limit. He was prepared to use force if necessary to calm Felix down. He couldn’t guarantee that his own power could subdue Felix’s ability, but still.
“This is the last time. Either sit or go to sleep, choose one.”
Caliph growled menacingly. But Felix remained the same. He did not stop his steps and only distorted his expression even more.
Irritation surged to the tips of his hair. Unable to bear it any longer, Caliph suddenly stood and roughly grabbed Felix’s shoulder.
That was it. Holding Felix’s shoulder. Yet, as if by magic, Felix’s busy steps came to a sudden halt.
“It seems the situation has become rather tangled.”
Felix’s eyes, now sharply focused, stared directly at Caliph. Caliph had no choice but to scowl even more.
Everything, from his attitude to the words that followed, was completely out of the blue.
“Ever since I willingly became the false Crown Prince, the situation has never been simple.”
“Yes, that’s true. But it seems the situation is far more complicated than you had anticipated.”
“Hah, I’m really tired.”
Caliph let out a coarse sigh. His head hurt too much. He didn’t want to think about anything. But Felix’s words were too cryptic. The feeling of facing a riddle was far from pleasant.
“Say what you have to say, straightforwardly. Don’t beat around the bush.”
Caliph’s hand swept across his face roughly, filled with pure irritation. Yet it seemed that Felix was completely unaware of his state.
“I met Evelia this afternoon.”
Felix recounted his afternoon as if listing facts, not a moment of hesitation in his words.
It clearly rubbed Kaliph the wrong way, but all he did was let out a deep sigh. He was too weary to even get angry anymore.
“Ah, you never listen to a single warning I give you.”
Kaliph sighed deeply, keeping his gaze on Felix. The lack of response made Felix increasingly nervous, and he hurriedly followed right behind Kaliph.
“I’m sorry I did what you told me not to do. But can’t you understand that I have my own reasons?”
“What the hell are those damn reasons?”
“Uh, that is…”
Felix paused awkwardly, forgetting his emotional appeal. To Kaliph, it just looked like he was fishing for excuses.
“Enough. I don’t want to hear any more.”
“Wait! Wait, Kaliph! I get that you’re upset, but now’s not the time to be stubborn about trivial matters!”
“Trivial matters? Stubborn? Who the hell is being stubborn about trivial matters?”
Kaliph’s brows furrowed uncontrollably. This wasn’t the reaction he had hoped for. Confused, Felix’s eyes darted around before he blurted out what he had been holding back.
“It seems like Evelia’s memories are incorrectly stored.”
“What?”
“Evelia’s memories!”
“Ah, I really have to listen to the most absurd things.”
Kaliph muttered under his breath. It was a reaction of contempt. There was no sincerity in the response to Felix’s impassioned plea.
Frustrated, Felix grabbed Kaliph by the arm.
“First, listen to me. You told me yourself. You said you met Evelia when she came down to the resort area.”
“Yes. So what’s the issue?”
“Evelia doesn’t know she was in the resort area.”
Felix said, his voice filled with frustration. However, Kaliph couldn’t understand Felix’s concerns at all. Rather, he found it all the more suffocating that Felix was fixated on such an odd issue.
“You didn’t know she couldn’t remember it until now? I don’t see why this is a problem. I also can’t remember her. So she might not remember being in the resort area, too. It’s not like she was there for a long time.”
“What kind of comforting nonsense is that! This isn’t a matter to be taken so lightly!”
Felix uncharacteristically raised his voice, his face stiffening as he looked at Kalif.
“It’s not just that I don’t remember you, but my very perception of the time we spent together is wrong. She’s convalescing or whatever, but as far as I know, she’s never been to the domain as a child!”
What…?
For the first time, Kalif’s expression hardened significantly. It couldn’t be. Never been to the domain?
“Explain yourself. What do you mean she’s never been to the domain?”
“Ha, seems like you’re finally hearing me.”
“Stop the nonsense and answer the question.”
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.
