“Worried a lot about me? The visit went better than expected.”
“Ah…”
“They said they could delay the progress at the temple.”
“That’s great. Grandmother.”
Seeing Grandmother’s kind smile as she held my hand tightly reminded me of my late grandmother and made me choke up a bit.
‘Please live a long life.’
Because my grandmother couldn’t stay with me for long due to complications from diabetes, I sincerely wished that Grandma Hilris would live a long life.
“By the way, there seems to be a child at home?”
Sicar, who had been quiet until now, finally opened his mouth as if he had something to say.
“Yes, grandmother. Actually, we were going to ask for your permission because of that child.”

“You ask for my permission for every little thing because of a child? Well, what’s going on? Why is that?”
“We’re planning to adopt that child.”
Looking at Sicar as if she was a bit surprised, grandmother turned her gaze to me.
“Do you agree?”
“Yes, grandmother.”
“That’s really strange. A child who hates children suddenly brings a child and even wants to adopt…”
As if she was thinking for a moment, grandmother lowered her head, and then suddenly turned her head toward me with a look of realization.
At that moment, I felt like I knew why grandmother was looking at me like that.
‘Oh, no. It’s not that, grandmother.’
I tried hard to send telepathy with my expression, but eventually, grandmother said the words I was worried about.

“Is it your child…? So you brought a child while I was away? You thought I wouldn’t allow it if it was your child?”
Finally, she misunderstood like this.
I smirked at Sicar, who was enjoying it, and then nodded to grandmother.
“No, it’s not. Grandmother. That’s really a misunderstanding. The child doesn’t share a drop of blood with me…”
Then, Sicar cut off my words.
“That’s correct. Grandmother.”
At that moment, grandmother and I both glared at Sicar.
“What?!”
Sicar. Are you joking? You’re kidding, right?
Before I could ask, grandmother asked first, so all I could do was glare at Sicar as if we were going to die together.

“What… what does that mean…? So you mean Yura really has a child?”
“Yes, grandmother. The child in the second room on the second floor is Yura’s child. So we brought the child to raise.”
I couldn’t stand it.
“Duke…? Why? Why are you joking like that? Grandmother is really misunderstanding!”
I asked with a wish for him to somehow quell this awkward situation. But Sicar looked at me with a very serious expression and said.
“My wife. We can deceive others, but we can’t deceive grandmother. Please tell grandmother the truth. That it’s your child. So we’re going to raise it together.”
‘You crazy! Why are you doing this again?!’
I really couldn’t figure out why Sicar was saying that. All I could do was shake my head fervently to clear up grandmother’s misunderstanding.
“Grandmother. It’s really a misunderstanding! Absolutely not! Absolutely.”
Then, Sicar came up to me, held me tightly, and spoke as if he wanted grandmother to hear.

“My wife. It’s okay. Grandmother will understand and accept it.”
And then he whispered to me in a quiet voice.
“Follow me if you don’t want to be buried next to Kian.”
I felt a chill run down my spine.
“No, no.”
“Then follow my lead. Never forget that your life is in my hands.”
“Okay, I got it…….”
But, this was a reluctant response. After pacifying me like a wellbehaved puppy, Sicar patted my head once and let me go. Then he looked at me with a seemingly affectionate gaze.
“My lady. I will now tell the truth to grandmother.”
Oh, really.

I bowed my head to the grandmother, looking very sorry.
“I’m sorry, grandmother…”
The grandmother didn’t speak for a while, seemingly shocked, but soon she nodded her head as if she had no choice but to accept it.
“I see. I understand. I know my grandson. Sicar is not the one who can bring a child and raise it. It was because of you, Yura.”
“Please forgive the lady. Grandma, it must have been hard to tell you that she has a child hidden. So please understand Yura a bit.”
“It was unexpected, but having a child is not a crime. Yura, I will accept your child, so you don’t have to hide it anymore.”
I realized that it must have seemed strange to others for Sicar and I to suddenly adopt Kian, who had no connection to us. Is that why Sicar made up this lie?
“Sicar is not the type to readily accept even a child of the woman who is to become his wife. But, seeing that he’s willing to bring your child, I think he’s really changed a lot thanks to you, Yura. Thanks to you, I feel like I’m seeing my grandson, who was pure when he was young. I’m very grateful to you. By the way, what is the child’s name?”
I didn’t want to answer, but as Sicar was staring at me, I sighed deeply and answered.
“It’s Kian…….”

“Kian, that’s a very pretty name. Accept Kian as my grandson.”
The grandmother probably thinks I would be very happy if she said this?
But, I was not happy at all because I suddenly became a single mother.
I hadn’t even had my first kiss yet, and the only thing similar to a kiss I had was pretending to kiss Sicar at our wedding.
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
