Three days later, as foretold by the system, the first main scenario arrived.
[SYSTEM] Main Scenario Arrival! [SYSTEM] Main Scenario is activated! (▶Preview Scenario)However, having no intention of compliantly becoming a player and proceeding with the scenario, I ignored the newly arrived scenario.
‘I saw it before. The moment Hezen pressed [▶Preview Scenario], the quest arrived.’
The main quest Hezen received that day had a ‘failure penalty’ of a ‘bad ending,’ and it was impossible even to refuse the quest.
There’s no telling what dangerous quest might arrive if I carelessly pressed that button.
‘So, if I just don’t press that button, does that mean no quest will come?’
As if to confirm my guess, the noisy lime-green system window appeared several times, whining and begging me to press the [▶Preview Scenario] button.
[Uh, Player? You’re not going to proceed with the scenario? (((( ;°Д°))))] [Player? You have to press the [▶Preview Scenario] button to move on… Player?]‘Heh, you think I’m going to press that and proceed with the scenario?’
Then, the system window even resorted to wailing.
[Whyyyyyyyyy. Player, please, just once… just once press the [▶Preview Scenario] button, please? Whyyyyyyyyy… ༼;´༎ຶ ༎ຶ`༽]‘So noisy.’
Indeed, the system window felt much noisier than when Hezen was the player.
But I steadfastly ignored it.
Holding a small hope that the system would eventually give up on me if I kept ignoring it.
Two more days passed, and it was the day of Mother’s birthday celebration.
Since the day I became the player in Hezen’s stead, I hadn’t seen Anselot.
If before it was because I was avoiding him, since that day, I hadn’t even caught a glimpse of Anselot.
There were rumors that he was sick, but I shook my head thinking, ‘Eh, that can’t be.’
However, as his absence continued even on the day of Mother’s birthday, I started feeling suspicious and worried.
‘I thought he would definitely appear, asking me to be his partner.’
Recalling his persistent behavior towards me until now, I began to worry.
‘Is he really sick?’
The ball was to start at 6 PM, and it was already 3 PM.
There were still about three hours left.
‘Should I go visit him?’
As I hesitated, another 30 minutes passed, and eventually, I got up and went to find Anselot.
‘Why does he make me so worried?’
It’s all Anselot’s fault.
If someone persistently chases you and then suddenly disappears, it’s only natural to worry.
So it’s not that I’m particularly concerned about him or anything…
Halt.
I stopped in my tracks upon spotting a group of people coming from the opposite direction.
They also halted upon seeing me and glared sharply.
[Look at that loser glaring. Just you watch! =͟͟͞͞(๑•̀ㅁ•́ฅ✧Player, I have a great way for you to put him in his place! First, try pressing this [▶Preview Scenario] button…]
The system window popped up noisily again, but I easily ignored it and smiled warmly at my counterpart.
“Hello, Orent Brother.”
“Tch…”
Orent openly showed his displeasure and scowled.
‘Even a child wouldn’t show their emotions so openly.’
I clicked my tongue inwardly.
Why did I ever think so highly of Orent Brother?
I gave him a light smile and passed by.
‘Huh?’
Suddenly feeling a sharp gaze from behind, I turned around.
However, all I saw was Orent Brother fussing and his companions trying to calm him down.
‘Did I imagine it?’
I tilted my head in confusion and continued on my way.
The man watched Luibel’s retreating figure intently.
It seemed that Luibel had no intention of proceeding with the scenario, despite having perfectly awakened as a player.
“…This is problematic.”
He muttered slowly, rubbing his chin thoughtfully.
It appeared necessary to remind the player of their duty.
Knock, knock.
I arrived at Anselot’s door and knocked.
After a moment, the door opened, and a man peeked out with an indifferent face.
Then, spotting me, his eyes widened in surprise.
“Princess Luibel?”
His eyes softened with joy.
“Wow, what an honor. Did Your Highness come to escort me?”
“Escort? What are you talking about!”
I blushed and waved my hands dismissively.
“Really?”
“I came to check on you after hearing you were ill. I was worried you might be hurt. I’m not that heartless.”
Contrary to the rumors, Anselot didn’t look sick at all.
With his neatly groomed silver-white hair and white uniform, he was perfectly dressed for Mother’s upcoming birthday celebration.
“But you don’t look sick at all.”
Clearly, the rumors were unfounded.
“Are you disappointed I’m not sick? That’s rather harsh.”
His playful retort made him seem annoyingly cute, so I glared at him.
“Did you spread the rumor yourself to make me come here?”
“Wow, how did you know?”
Anselot curled his lips in a sly smile.
“It’s tough dealing with someone so perceptive.”
“Ah!”
I gasped in surprise and stepped back.
‘I got carried away again. He’s a prince!’
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.
