Of course, no one showed any signs in front of the Queen, but that’s how things worked when it came to gossip.
‘I better keep an eye on them.’
The three of them were getting along very well, so there was a high probability that even small issues could turn into significant events.
Even Elsias planted seeds to make me disappear.
I won’t do the same thing as before, but the desire to get rid of me is still there.
‘Where are the kids?’
I wandered through the crowd.
Not far from me, Micael was with Louis and Evan.
Quite a few children of the same age were gathered around the twins.
‘The atmosphere is different from when it was Oloroz.’
Unlike back then, various factions were mixed, making the atmosphere seem even more relaxed.
Among the peers, there was even a little miss who had shown interest in Evan.
‘It’s good that they’re having fun.’
Some people must have sent the kids to line up for me and Kasha, but excluding that, Louis and Evan were popular types.
‘Same appearance, but Evan is popular among girls, and Louis is… quite evenly distributed?’
It was about Evan being surrounded by girls.
In the meantime, Louis, regardless of gender and age, played with various groups, and now he monopolized the affection of the ladies.
“Madam, I’ll get it for you!”
“Oh my.”
“With the lady’s delicate hands, you shouldn’t hold something so heavy for long!”
Louis brought drinks to a noblewoman and said.
It was natural that the lady’s cheek blushed.
‘…Maybe he’ll grow up to be a Casanova?’
I imagined Louis’s bright future.
For children of their age, it was natural to be tense in front of adults.
Of course, they would grow up to be polite, but even if you saw it that way, their naturalness couldn’t be anything but innate.
I turned my gaze to Micael.
‘Is Micael okay?’
The 7th prince, who was thought to be missing, appeared at the National Foundation Festival.
Nobles who showed interest in this glanced at Micael.
Ironically, the Empress didn’t say a word to her returned son.
‘Actually, it’s better if she doesn’t approach.’
Still, as long as they were in the same place, I couldn’t help but be concerned.
It was time to think about whether to start a conversation now.
Before I could approach, Evan was the first to speak to Micael.
“Hyung, are you okay?”
“Yeah, I’m fine being with Evan.”
Such affectionate brothers.
It was nice to see Evan and Micael whispering.
‘I don’t need to worry about them.’
Everyone was adapting to the National Foundation Festival in their own way.
Just when I was relieved, I felt someone’s gaze.
As I turned my head in that direction, I met the Emperor’s eyes.
‘Was he looking at me just now?’
Surprised, I widened my eyes, but the Emperor’s gaze had already moved elsewhere.
‘Was it just my imagination?’
It all happened so quickly that I couldn’t be sure.
I looked at the Emperor, lost in thought.
‘Why did he send an invitation?’
For Kasha, me, and even for the twins and Micael.
They weren’t children I used to care about before.
“Why are you like that?”
As if finding it strange that I was standing still, Kasha spoke up.
“I felt like I just met His Majesty.”
He, who I thought would say something, closed his mouth.
‘Seems to be in a bad mood.’
It was natural for Kasha to hate the Emperor.
But there was something more in the background that I didn’t know.
“Shall we go back now?”
“Do we have to stay any longer?”
“Since we’ve shown our faces, it’s enough.”
Kasha seemed eager to leave this place as soon as possible.
It didn’t matter to me, but the kids were a problem.
“I want to stay longer!”
For the first time in a crowded place, Louis, who had come out, acted like a young colt with its reins released.
“I will take good care of them.”
“I think I should stay if Louis stays. I’m uneasy leaving only these two.”
Still, it was uneasy.
“Just like before, maybe…”
“Even roosters close their mouths when they are in front of the sacred National Foundation Festival.”
The owner of the National Foundation Festival was the Emperor.
If the Emperor himself caused a disturbance at the party, it wouldn’t be easy to cut off only the tail, as with the previous case.
“If anything happens, I’ll send a paper bird!”
“Leave Mihail here too.”
If there were two adults, it should be okay.
“Okay. Make sure to contact us? Except for Micael and Mihail, don’t follow anyone you don’t know!”
“Yes!”
Louis replied as if it were obvious.
Still, I felt more relieved than before.
‘For now, it should be fine.’
It was the first time I had seen Kasha’s mood settle to this extent.
Normally, I would have stayed, but today, it seemed better to leave with him.
“Then let’s go.”
I reached out to him.
With our hands overlapping under my hand, he led me.
It was an elegant exit.
We were staying at Kasha’s palace.
If we rode a carriage from the mansion, his residence was not far away.
A simple garden and a lake containing the moon. A stone path connected the palace.
Even though the owner was absent, the management here was well done.
But perhaps because it had been empty for too long.
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.
