Meanwhile, Seorun was loitering in front of Cedric’s room.
A knight who was guarding the room door halted Seorun, who was approaching hesitantly.
“Hey, Seorun. What’s the matter?”
At the voice of the knight calling him, Seorun put on a bright expression and quickly approached the knight.
“Haha, now there’s no mistress to serve… I thought I might as well try to get my face known a little.”
Seorun made an innocent face as if he knew nothing and laughed heartily.
“Oh, indeed. Now that the mistress isn’t around, there’s nothing for you to do.”
The knights looked at Seorun with pitiful expressions. The Seorun they knew was someone who couldn’t do anything properly.
He was overflowing with the will to try, but his execution was too clumsy.
“Go inside and say hello. Don’t talk nonsense.”
The knight said with a look as if he was showing mercy.
“Oh, really? Thank you!”
Seorun expressed a grateful expression at the knight’s consideration and bowed 90 degrees.
“If you’re thankful, buy me a drink later.”
At the knight’s words, Seorun hesitated slightly.
‘Earning twice as much as me.’
Seorun, who received a generous salary from Cedric, was not living in poverty. However, among the knights, Seorun’s salary was the lowest.
He had never treated anyone to a meal, let alone a drink, and that didn’t sit well with him, but Seorun responded with a playful laugh.
“Of course! I should treat you, haha.”
When Seorun spoke with a creaky voice, another knight next to him spoke as if scolding.
“Hey, are you trying to mooch off Seorun who can barely make ends meet? Forget it, Seorun. Don’t mind this guy.”
“I, well. I was just kidding.”
“Go in quickly.”
At the hollow conversation, Seorun, who was laughing soullessly, nodded at the knight’s words to go in.
Seorun knocked on the door twice and spoke loudly.
“It’s Seorun!”
“Come in.”
Following Seorun’s energized voice, Cedric’s indifferent voice was heard.
Seorun said goodbye to the knights with a bow and went into the room.
Seorun’s expression, which had been full of a clear smile, changed in an instant.
The lively eyes suddenly sank deep. He walked towards Cedric with a face that was like a person without any emotions.
Then he knelt before Cedric. The bowed Seorun seemed like a completely different person than when he was with the knights.
Cedric glanced at Seorun and turned his eyes to the documents on the desk. His voice toward Seorun was utterly indifferent.
“What is it, coming without being called. Didn’t I tell you not to show your face unless there’s something special? Have you forgotten?”
Although it was not a day or two of Cedric treating Seorun coldly, it couldn’t be helped but to feel upset.
At Cedric’s words, Seorun made a bitter face and spoke softly.
“I apologize. I came here to ask who will be taking over the duties that Gwenn used to do.”
The butler Gwenn had played the role of a gobetween for Cedric and Seorun. When Seorun was secretly reporting the affairs of the Wens earl’s family, Gwenn was in the middle.
Cedric, who didn’t yet know that Gwenn was driven out, stopped what he was doing and furrowed his brows.
“What do you mean all of a sudden?”
What nonsense is he talking about when Gwenn is fine? He touched his forehead as if tired and looked at Seorun.
Seorun felt something was off with Cedric’s attitude.
‘Did he not read the letter I sent?’
It seemed that Cedric didn’t know Gwenn was driven out. Seorun slowly lifted his head and cautiously opened his mouth.
“Perhaps, did you not receive the letter I sent?”
“A letter?”
At Seorun’s words, Cedric widened his eyes and trailed off his words. He remembered the pile of documents and letters piled up at his mansion.
‘I was busy.’
Tomorrow was Eric’s wedding.
There was no time to spare for other matters since everything had to be resolved in less than three days.
“I guess there was a problem while Gwenn was on vacation?”
Cedric looked at Seorun with an annoyed gaze. He was attributing the absence of Gwenn in the mansion to a mere ‘vacation’.
‘…He really doesn’t know anything.’
Seorun was sure at the word ‘vacation’. Cedric didn’t know that Eric had driven Gwenn out.
“It was a letter about Gwenn’s matter.”
A voice without any emotion resonated lowly. Seorun, with a cold expression, spoke once more towards Cedric who was glaring at him.
“Gwenn has left the earl’s house.”
“What?! Why did Gwenn!”
Cedric’s voice, sounding like a war trumpet, echoed unexpectedly.
“You’re fired.”
“What on earth are you talking about. Who dares to fire Gwen!”
A name surfaced in Cedric’s mind as he bellowed.
Cedric bit his lower lip anxiously, his gaze uneasy. Serrin replied softly to Cedric’s confused expression.
“The earl threw her out.”
Boom!
The sound of slamming the desk echoed frighteningly as Serrin finished speaking. Cedric’s face, red with anger, contorted with fury.
“That damn…!”
How dare he, to dismiss someone, let alone Gwen!
Clatter!
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.
