Familiar yet comforting, that’s how it felt.
Whenever Reneb laid on the ornate bed in the garden, she occasionally felt uncomfortable.
As if a more radiant beauty should sleep in such a bed.
“A personal touch has been added to reflect your taste, Your Grace, by His Majesty himself who sent someone to the Siren Duke’s residence.”
Reneb hadn’t known it was custom-made.
A somewhat excessive kindness to someone leaving right after the peace treaty ends.
‘Somewhat secretly caring despite appearing otherwise.’
Icar, who had quietly approached, warned Reneb in a low voice.
“Duchess, stop with the useless chatter.”
“Yes, Your Majesty. I will watch my words.”
“Is it to your liking? Though there’s not much you can do if it’s not.”
For once, Icar spoke appropriately.
Who would dare to speak the truth if they didn’t like the guest room in front of Icar?
Still, Reneb didn’t mind Icar’s sarcastic words.
“I genuinely love it. Thank you for the thoughtful arrangements, Your Majesty.”
When Reneb smiled, Duchess stood up with pride.
Although Icar’s single glance immediately made her deflate.
Reneb secretly found the chemistry between submissive Duchess and stern yet lenient Icar amusing.
As Reneb chuckled softly, both of their gazes simultaneously met Reneb’s face.
“Your Grace?”
“What is the matter?”
“Well, I want to explore the inside a bit more. May I?”
“Of course.”
Ignoring their gazes, Reneb moved inside.
On her way back from touring the guest room to the garden, Reneb encountered a young woman standing in the corridor.
She was holding a large bag, and her dress was somewhat modest for a noble.
Yet, she didn’t look like a servant working at the palace.
Upon sensing Reneb’s gaze, the woman looked up from her book.
Their eyes met, and the woman approached Reneb with a puzzled expression.
“Hello, I’m Melita, His Majesty’s physician. I came to see the Siren Duke’s Grace, perhaps?”
That was fast.
Just a few minutes ago, Icar was with Reneb.
When exactly had he called for the physician?
A moment in the hallway to the guest room came to mind, where Icar was conversing with an attendant.
‘So that was it.’
It had only been Reneb and Icar during the transition from the garden to the guest room.
“Nice to meet you, Miss Melita. I’m the one you’re looking for. Shall we go inside and talk?”
Politely gesturing, Reneb proceeded.
“Yes, let’s. I heard it’s quite an urgent case, but Your Grace looks quite healthy. So, I wondered.”
“Oh, you heard that.”
Reneb bit her lip.
An urgent case, indeed.
As they opened the reception room door, they heard Kieran and Amber chatting.
Upon noticing Reneb, both turned.
“Lady, you’ve returned.”
“Welcome back, Miss. How was your tour of the guest room?”
Their eyes then went to Melita standing behind Reneb.
“This is Miss Melita, His Majesty’s personal physician.”
Both Amber and Kieran nodded politely to Melita.
However, Kieran’s expression seemed slightly odd.
“Miss, are you sick?”
Concerned, Amber asked, and Reneb offered a kind white lie.
“No, His Majesty has arranged for the guests to have regular check-ups for their health.”
“Oh….”
Finally, Amber’s expression lightened, and she nodded.
“Could you please prepare some tea for Miss Melita?”
“I’ll prepare the tea right away.”
Kieran quickly exited the reception room, and while Amber stood idly, Melita spoke.
“It would be nice to have dessert to accompany the tea. I would like something made by His Majesty’s exclusive chef.”
“Huh? Ah, yes!”
Amber blinked her eyes and hurriedly walked toward the door.
“If you say my name, they’ll quickly prepare a delicious dessert for you.”
Melita called out toward the departing Amber.
“Yes!”
If it’s about dessert, you can ask the chef in charge of the guests.
But why specifically His Majesty’s exclusive chef?
A puzzled Reneb’s gaze turned toward Melita.
In the brief flurry of events, a flustered Reneb moved toward the door, intending to call Amber back.
“Amber, wait…”
“Just a moment. Your Grace.”
Then Melita grabbed Reneb.
“Weren’t you trying to hide your ailment from the two of us?”
Melita wasn’t wrong, so when Reneb looked at her silently, she continued.
“Don’t worry, I’m not trying to tease Your Grace’s cute maid.”
Melita placed a large bag on the table and pulled out something that looked like a stethoscope.
Reneb was a bit surprised.
Ten years from now, even before the regression, Paradium had no stethoscopes.
This meant that even in medicine, Vashuker was far ahead of Paradium.
Perhaps sensing Reneb’s puzzled look, Melita showed her the stethoscope.
“First time seeing it? It’s new.”
“Yes? What…”
She’d seen many such items before her death, but this was the first time seeing it after her reincarnation.
“Is it already in Paradium?”
Melita looked surprised at Reneb’s lukewarm reaction.
“Well, I’m not sure. I’ve always been healthy.”
Reneb ambiguously replied and sat down in front of Melita.
Melita, who was tilting her head, soon asked Reneb some questions about her physical condition nonchalantly.
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.
