The Empress' Scandalous Paramour (5 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 37
Chapter 4. The Empress’s Concubine Scandal: Day One
Three small children crept forward with their bodies lowered, moving stealthily.
Though their little heads were plainly visible to any adult, the children truly believed they were hiding well—and it was utterly endearing.
“Shh—!”
“Shhh!”
At the hushed signal from the brown-haired boy, who looked about six, the others nodded in agreement as they mimicked him.
Each of the children clutched in their tiny hands cookies or candies, half-melted and sticky from body heat,
yet, astonishingly, they swallowed hard but never once ate any of it.
It would have been terribly difficult for children whose average age was barely five to resist such temptation.
“My, aren’t they adorable? What on earth are they up to?”
“Hmm. Hard to say. They seem headed toward the gardens….”
The gardeners, leaning idly on their shovels, exchanged leisurely remarks as they watched.
Yet not a single one of them scolded or stopped the children.
Her Imperial Majesty the Empress was exceedingly kind—especially generous and gentle toward children.
Besides, none of these children ever caused trouble.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
