The Price is Everything of Yours (76 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 88
As a rule, any ancient noble house would naturally possess at least one secret poison unknown to outsiders.
Such houses owned longstanding territories, and thus inevitably developed techniques utilizing region-specific flora and fauna unique to their lands’ climate.
The Imperial House possessed several such substances. One of them was the medicine Valentine had given to Neris during their last encounter in Neris’s previous life—administered when Valentine visited Neris in prison, claiming it had been received from Kaymil.
Given that Maindlant was already so insular, it wouldn’t be surprising if they had developed numerous poisons with effects unknown to others.
At Neris’s suspicious gaze, Cledwin gave a low chuckle.
“If I offered it, would you even take it?”
“You wouldn’t have handed it over yourself, would you?”
Had Valentine personally sprinkled it onto Megara’s head? Judging by Megara having slapped Delma’s cheek, it seemed Delma—who had been slipping in and out of the banquet hall earlier under the pretense of her mistress’s summons—had acted on someone’s behalf.
“My subordinate happened to possess precisely what that side needed.”
His tone alone gave away the answer.
Not knowing how else to react, Neris simply laughed. Though she herself considered such laughter childish in this situation, she couldn’t help it.
Diane watched Neris and Cledwin whispering together with a meaningful look in her eyes. When a slow waltz soon began playing, Diane rose slowly and spoke to Bran.
“Megara seems to be returning to her dormitory, so she won’t become the queen of this ball. That might leave room for me. Right, Bran?”
“Huh? Oh—yeah, sure, Diane.”
Bran, being honest to a fault, couldn’t quite bring himself to flatter Diane by claiming she’d overshadow all the senior girls and become the most dazzling young lady of the evening.
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.
