The Duke Only Needs My Child (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 25
“Where have you been?”
“…I went to see a play. I felt stifled just staying at home. Were you waiting for me?”
“I thought we could have a meal together for once, but you weren’t in your room.”
His voice, lower than usual, seemed to press down even the air around them.
Blair sent Rina—who looked awkward standing between them—to go eat first, then entered the room with Herdin.
“I was worried—you left without even your carriage or knights.”
Though Herdin’s words sounded genuinely concerned at first glance, his eyes betrayed suspicion rather than worry.
The moment their eyes met, she recalled his voice from long ago.
‘How can I possibly trust you?’
He was doubting her again.
The realization hit her like a wave of emotion, surging up uncontrollably.
After vanishing without a trace for half a month, he now openly showed suspicion over a single outing—just like in the past.
“Is it because you don’t trust me?”
Her voice slipped out sharper than she intended.
In the past, Blair would have anxiously watched his every reaction, fearing she might upset him—but not anymore.

Cold Male Lead Became My Clingy Husband (Female-Dominant)
Feng Bai Su transmigrated into a matriarchal novel, becoming the sister of the female protagonist and the Seventh Princess of the Feng Ling Kingdom.
After working herself to death in her previous life, finally reincarnating as a princess, she only wanted to be a lazy fish who could eat, sleep, and play.
Until she met the male protagonist from the book, Wei Jing Mo, and he took a liking to her!
Wei Jing Mo is the top young man in Feng Ling City, talented in both appearance and ability, from a prestigious family, with a cold and otherworldly appearance, a figure like the bright moon in the hearts of noble ladies. It was thought that only the most powerful and talented noble lady in Feng Ling City would be worthy of such a brilliant young man. Who knew that this young gentleman would secretly admire the infamous Seventh Princess?
Short scene 1:
Feng Bai Su looked at the young man crying like a pear blossom in the rain before her, and couldn’t help but doubt her life.
Wasn’t the male lead described as a cold and otherworldly figure in the book?
Then who was this poor little thing crying with swollen red eyes and tear-stained face?
Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
A talented fox spirit female lead with a flirtatious appearance but actually abstinent VS A cold-looking but actually naive and clingy little jealous male lead

3. “Really selfish. Really double standards. He can go out as he pleases, but his wife is immediately interrogated if she goes out for a little bit. Blair’s position is really painful, especially when he is reminded of what the masses said.”
