The carriage came to a halt, and Velia and Prince Khaled slowly disembarked.
They had arrived at the construction site of a clinic.
Currently, construction was underway simultaneously at eight such clinics throughout the empire.
“How wonderful would it be if we could quickly construct buildings with magic?”
“Haha. It’s a place we’ll be staying for a long time, so if you think of it that way, it’s bearable.”
Magic was convenient, but it was mostly used for destruction or enhancing existing abilities.
Higherlevel magic could use magic stones to imbue weapons with special powers, but magic stones were quite expensive and rare.
“It looks like it’ll be completed by autumn.”
“That’s actually fast, Velia.”
Velia bit her lip.
She wanted to catch up with what Raul had quickly; it still felt far away.
Prince Khaled approached Velia and gently ran his finger over her lip.
“Don’t keep biting your lip. What will you do if you get hurt?”
Velia retorted sullenly.
“What does it matter? It’s fine.”
“I’m not fine with it at all.”
Prince Khaled briefly embraced Velia and let her go.
“Don’t be impatient. We’re already doing well enough, aren’t we?”
Velia let out a small sigh.
The clinic under construction was at the stage where the walls were going up after completing the foundation.
Several engineers were deeply engrossed in their work.
‘They’re diligent; I don’t have to worry.’
Watching them work, Velia had a satisfied expression on her face.
There was a sense of achievement in having gathered the engineers through Prince Khaled.
After touring the construction site of the clinic and giving a few instructions, Prince Khaled and Velia decided to head back to the palace.
“What are you doing?”
As soon as they climbed into the carriage, Prince Khaled naturally laid his head on Velia’s lap and lay down.
“I’m really tired today.”
Velia chuckled, then lightly fanned Prince Khaled, who had closed his eyes on her lap.
“You’ve worked hard.”
“Do you know that, thanks to you, I’m doing way more work than my destiny dictates?”
“What are you talking about? You’re naturally a workaholic.”
“That’s news to me.”
Prince Khaled spoke shamelessly, adjusting to an even more comfortable position.
Irrepressible, really.
Prince Khaled was even busier than Velia herself but always tried to act carefree.
So, they spent quite some time idly chatting, but the carriage, which should have arrived at the palace long ago, was still moving.
“Why is it taking so long to get there today?”
Just as Velia was about to lift the small curtain on the carriage window, wondering if something had happened, Prince Khaled stopped her hand.
“Hm?”
“Stay still, Velia.”
He seemed to be plotting something.
“Where on earth are we going?”
“Shh. Just wait and see.”
Joy was evident in Prince Khaled’s voice.
Velia became exceedingly curious as to why he was so excited.
Prince Khaled had been rather down lately, which had been subtly worrying.
But his demeanor had started to improve recently, and today he was doing something he never usually did.
“Are you kidnapping me, Your Highness the Second Prince?”
“Yes, so I hope the princess will be kidnapped quietly.”
It was funny that he was committing a crime yet asking her to be quietly kidnapped.
Velia chuckled at his audacity and shook her head.
“That’s bizarre. Kidnappers don’t say things like that.”
Prince Khaled cocked his head at Velia’s words.
“Hmm… Do you like that sort of thing?”
He seemed to be suppressing a chuckle.
“What sort of thing?”
What could he be leading up to, hesitating like that?
Prince Khaled swiftly stood up from his seat.
Then he grabbed both of Velia’s hands with one hand and lifted them above her head. With the other hand, he pulled her waist toward him.
“Ah!”
Halfreclined in the chair due to the sudden action, Velia looked up at Prince Khaled who had climbed onto her and opened her eyes wide.
“Is this some kind of forcefulness? To immobilize me…”
At that, Velia’s face flushed a bright red.
“Ah! What are you saying right now! Seriously!”
Velia quickly interrupted, glancing nervously around, and struggled to get out from under Prince Khaled.
“Ha ha ha.”
Prince Khaled lay on top of her and tenderly embraced her again.
Finally, Velia stopped struggling and closed her eyes, feeling the warmth he provided.
Not much later, the carriage stopped.
Velia, quickly getting up from her seat, straightened her clothes and hair.
Her disheveled appearance could easily be misunderstood by anyone who saw it.
“It seems we’ve arrived.”
Curious about their location, Velia discreetly opened the curtain to peek outside the window.
But trees obstructed her view, showing her nothing.
“Let’s get down.”
Prince Khaled opened the carriage door and stepped out, offering his hand to Velia.
Confused but compliant, Velia took his hand and stepped down from the carriage.
“Where is this…”
As she was about to ask him, something flickered through Velia’s mind.
“Could it be?!”
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.
