Then the fear he felt for the first time followed him like a shadow after that day.
Upon hearing the news that his sister was seriously injured and unable to get up from the bed, he wanted to visit her right away, but he did not have the courage to face her.
So he repeatedly lived a life of sneaking like a thiefcat, applying ointment to her wounds when she was asleep, and then leaving again.
“No. There must be a reason.”
So when he heard his sister’s resolute word, glaring at Gerald belatedly, the breath that had been held for days finally felt like it was released.
“Kirian, this won’t do. We must buy jam.”
Reina, suddenly turning around, declared gravely.
“Yes.”
Kirian faintly smiled.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
Reina looked at Kirian, who was still smiling, with somewhat doubtful eyes.
“Just, because I like it.”
Despite Kirian’s excuse, Reina’s eyes only narrowed further.
“What’s there to like when all the money, even the money we don’t have, is being ripped off?”
Kirian shrugged his shoulders and walked past Reina.
“Because you recognize that I have a foul temper.”
When he looked back slightly, Reina was looking at him as if he were insane.
“Because you recognize that I’m not evil.”
“It’s not because I’m angry that I’m taking too much money, right?”
Reina, who cautiously asked, began to follow him slowly. Kirian finally burst into a loud laugh, so much that the tower of boxes he was carrying high in both hands was in danger of shaking.
Reina, unable to bear it, grabbed the swaying tower with her hand.
“Stop laughing! What if you spill it!”
Kirian looked down at Reina, swallowing his laughter. Although she was still grumbling and ardently supporting the tower, it was still good.
“Thank you, sister.”
He said it out of the blue, but in the end, he had to swallow the rest of the words.
‘For understanding everything.’
Reina blinked at Kirian, who spoke abruptly, but soon sighed and pointed at the tower of boxes.
“Just carry it properly.”
His sister had said that she had been watching him for a long time, but Kirian knew. No matter how long anyone looked at him, no one would understand and trust him like his sister. His sister was the only one.
Strength involuntarily entered the hand holding the box, and the stiff paper slightly warped.
The thought of a future without such a sister was disgusting.
(This is a time separator.)
“Sigh, Miss. How can you wander about in the chilly wind while still recovering, even if you’re with Master Kirian?”
Eliza grumbled all the way to the ducal house in the carriage. Since the summer vacation started, I decided to return to the ducal house after a long time.
I had spent a few vacations at the academy securing the Crown Prince’s position of Ksia, but now that I had completed the biggest task, and as the Duchess’s letters asking when I would return were coming almost daily, I wanted to spend this vacation in the ducal house.
“Do you know how surprised I was, thinking you were kidnapped?”
“Yes, I know.”
I looked at Eliza with very trembling eyes.
The shock of seeing the academy turned into ruins when I returned from shopping was still vivid. Eliza, holding a tool, was indeed horrifying.
My face, which was rotting, did not seem to be noticed by Eliza, as she shook her head vehemently.
“Even if you give up on sleep, you never gave up on tea time. So when you left your black tea and disappeared, what else would I think, but that you were kidnapped?”
“Cough. Cough.”
To quietly silence Eliza, who had quite a distorted memory of me, I tapped her shoe with my foot, but it was already too late.
“Snort.”
Kirian, who had already heard everything, barely swallowed his laughter.
“I thought you gave up tea time, only to bring back enough pastries to feed a whole elephant.”
“Cough.”
As I listened to the endless lamentation on one side, and the barely contained laughter on the other, I was not in a good mood.
I poked Kirian’s hand to stop him at least.
Kirian only looked at my finger, still wrapped in bandages due to Eliza’s stubbornness, and before I knew it, firmly grabbed my hand.
I was a little surprised and blinked as I tried to pull my hand away, but instead of letting go, more strength went into the large hand that wrapped around me.
Unable to overpower Kirian, I eventually left my hand, slightly hot, in his.
I felt strangely about Kirian’s hand, which had thickened enough to wrap around mine. It was a hand that I had surely bitten secretly when Kirian was asleep, but it felt like someone else’s hand.
No, as soon as I recognized that fact, Kirian seemed like a completely different person.
“What are you doing?”
Eliza asked at that moment, looking at our hands clasped together.
My face was flushed for no reason, and I tried to pull my hand away, but Kirian did not let go and instead shook my hand in front of Eliza.
“Sister’s hand is cold.”
Kirian said calmly, his face unchanging. I shook my head inwardly at his shamelessness.
“Oh, my lady’s hand is cold?!”
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.
