The Credentials of a Couple (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 63
“Of course, I failed. I didn’t know how to tie it properly, so I just tied it haphazardly, and the knot came undone.”
“…….”
“Yet, that memory remains vivid even now, tormenting me as if to say, ‘Don’t forget anything—keep chewing over your guilt.’ That’s why I couldn’t even die.”
Each time I felt the rapid pulse beating just beneath the tender skin of my neck, I was reminded anew that I was the only one still alive.
Thus, though it pained me, paradoxically that very pain kept me alive. The agony choking my throat felt as though it were telling me I didn’t even deserve the right to die, so I never attempted it again.
It was around then that Bake came to find me. His promise to restore my family’s honor felt like a lantern appearing in my darkness.
I mulled over Bake’s proposal and swore an oath—to reclaim my late father’s honor and set everything back in its rightful place.
After that vow, I pursued perfection even more intensely and worked tirelessly without end.
I didn’t want to fail again, nor did I wish to regret anything.
Thus began our marriage—and it was perfect.
Bake not only cleared the Craytons’ debts but also paid an enormous sum to the imperial court to secure recognition of his title as the next marquess. Afterward, he successfully introduced me to high society.
Since ours was a marriage arranged by mutual agreement without love, it was all the more straightforward. As long as each of us fulfilled our roles properly, there wouldn’t be any issues—at least, that’s what I thought.
Until I grew accustomed to my husband’s affection and held my young daughter in my arms.
Our married life had begun merely out of guilt toward the family I’d lost first and a sense of duty as the last Crayton. I never intended to exchange emotions, nor did I truly want to.
I was someone who wasn’t allowed to be happy.
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.
