Mild Kyeong, who woke up from sleep, deepened his thoughts. The more he pondered the situation, the worse he felt.
It was frustrating to think that he had slept for two days straight without taking a sigh of relief and guarding Ellen.
Of course, at first, he fell asleep at Ellen’s command, but he still couldn’t understand. He had never slept like that in his entire life.
As he thought carefully, he soon suspected the medicine.
At that moment, a doctor visited and checked his condition.
“The progress is excellent. This is a medicine, and this is from Vermilion Shrine.”
What the doctor offered to Mild Kyeong was a fatigue recovery pill well-packaged on a piece of paper.
“Thank you.”
Mild Kyeong received the fatigue recovery pill and asked the doctor.
“Is there a sleeping pill among these medicines by any chance?”
The doctor kindly smiled.
“No.”
“Really?”
“In the palace, knights are not allowed to be prescribed sleeping pills.”
“…”
“If there is an emergency in the palace, they won’t be able to fulfill their original duties.”
Mild Kyeong changed his question upon hearing that.
“If I take the fatigue recovery pill, will the sleep duration increase?”
“No, it won’t. Even with less sleep, fatigue is significantly reduced.”
“How much less sleep is enough?”
“I’m not sure if it’s the same for everyone, but generally, people feel energetic with just a couple of hours of sleep.”
Mild Kyeong’s suspicions naturally turned towards the fatigue recovery pill. The doctor, who didn’t know what was on his mind, kindly smiled and asked Mild Kyeong.
“Isn’t your condition much better?”
“Maybe because I’ve been lying down.”
“All right. Until you fully recover, please take it easy. Since you had a head injury, moving around might be tiring and difficult.”
The doctor, who advised Mild Kyeong, left, saying he would see him again tomorrow.
“Mild Kyeong, here’s water.”
A servant immediately handed him a cup. Mild Kyeong swallowed the medicine first. Then, as he remained still, a servant who had refilled the cup asked him.
“Aren’t you taking the fatigue recovery pill?”
“I’ve only had medicine and water. I feel full for some reason. I’ll take it after resting for about 5 minutes.”
“Yes. I’ll bring your meal then.”
As soon as the servant left the room, Mild Kyeong wrapped the received fatigue recovery pill in his handkerchief and hid it in his arms.
Then, after roughly placing the paper that had been used as the medicine packaging on the table, he emptied the cup that the servant had filled.
As if he had taken the fatigue recovery pill.
A little later, the servant came back into the room.
“The meal is ready, Mild Kyeong. Baron Vern has come.”
At those words, Mild Kyeong, who couldn’t help but sigh, thought that if Ellen wasn’t there, he couldn’t predict what kind of absurd behavior Alexander might engage in.
“Even though the mistress isn’t here…”
Before Mild Kyeong finished speaking, Alexander abruptly entered.
“I didn’t come to see Ellen. I came to see you.”
Then, he looked at Mild Kyeong and clicked his tongue.
“You said you were attacked. It seems severe. Tsk, tsk.”
Although it was uncomfortable to meet eyes with him, it couldn’t be helped. Mild Kyeong immediately got off the bed and greeted him with courtesy.
“I apologize for not being tidy. Please come in, Your Highness.”
Alexander took out a pipe and asked.
Even though he knew about the pain, he took out a pipe.
“Knights who are supposed to guard Ellen look like this…”
The following words sounded like criticism. Mild Kyeong was prepared to endure any insult.
“Take this.”
Alexander handed a cloth pouch to Mild Kyeong.
“What… is this?”
Alexander lit the pipe in his mouth.
“You have to be healthy to protect Ellen. Don’t be stingy, use it to recover quickly.”
“…?”
Mild Kyeong opened the pouch in a bewildered state. Inside were ten magical patches for pain relief and three pills wrapped in silk pouches.
The pills looked similar to the fatigue recovery pills Mild Kyeong had taken, but upon closer inspection, they were slightly different.
“Are these magical patches?”
“Yes. And the pills are special fatigue recovery pills from the Vermilion Shrine. I specially procured them.”
“This… is a fatigue recovery pill?”
“That’s right.”
“If I take them, will I sleep deeply?”
In response to Mild Kyeong’s cautious question, Alexander chuckled.
“If you sleep well and recover from fatigue, it’s a sleeping pill, not a fatigue recovery pill, right?”
“…”
“It’s a special fatigue recovery pill from the Shrine. If you take it, even if you sleep for just an hour or two, you’ll be full of energy.”
“I see.”
Having acknowledged it, Mild Kyeong handed the cloth pouch to Alexander.
“Aren’t you taking it?”
“I apologize for being unable to accept such heavenly grace, Your Highness.”
“Why?”
“It goes beyond my station to receive it.”
“Ugh! Beyond your station?”
Alexander started poking Mild Kyeong’s forehead with the unlit end of the pipe.
“Why would the likes of you judge that? Is your judgment better than mine?”
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.
