“When I was left alone in this house, I always prepared myself by looking at the weeds being stepped on.”
I know that too.
“Then there’s no reason to shake your resolve.”
Isn’t that all just a show setting?
Sicar opened the window, put me in front of it, and stood behind me so I couldn’t move.
“Even if it doesn’t suit you now, if you look at it every day, you’ll find yourself resembling that red rose. Just as if you keep drawing a picture while thinking of a tiger, you can at least draw a cat.”
“In other words, you’re just making a grand statement to become tough.”
“All resolves are meant to be grand.”
“I get it, now move a little. You’re surrounding me with your whole body, so I can’t breathe.”
Actually, it was scary because it was a pose Sicar used to kill people from behind. I can’t do anything when I’m choked like this.
“You can’t breathe? Durion said that when you like someone, you feel good enough to suffocate when you see that person, is that really so?”
“No, I’m just suffocating.”
“You’re a real oddball. Everyone else is scared when they see me, but only you are brave enough to like me.”
“……”
“Let’s go down for a meal before it gets late.”
Even if it was better to pretend that I liked him to save my life, I couldn’t help but boil over once in a while.
[Star Icon][Star Icon][Star Icon]After a quiet meal, Sicar went straight to work, and Kian started playing with spirits with Bika.
These days, Kian has been taking classes disguised as spirit play with Bika every morning. According to Sicar, doing so would improve Kian’s abilities as a spiritist faster and the time to break his curse would come sooner.
In the meantime, I had told the servants to prepare colored papers and was sitting comfortably on a warm balcony bathed in warm sunshine, leisurely drinking tea.
To savor the longawaited leisure, Mary spoke to me cautiously as I was enjoying sunbathing.
“Madam. The Duke asked me to escort you to the young master’s playroom.”
“A playroom?”
“Yes. The Duke made a playroom for the young master.”
What’s going on? Did he do something I didn’t even ask for? Even a playroom? Did he go to work to make a playroom for Kian?
But when you say you made a playroom, you should have some kind of touching expectation, but why is it ominous?
I got up abruptly from where I was sitting.
“Hurry up, Mary.”
My anxious mind did not disappear even as I was walking down the corridor. This Ducal residence has Sicar’s training room, which is full of training and training like another world.
He wouldn’t have made such a harsh room into Kian’s playroom, would he? Or did he make a house of horrors and call it a playroom?
I walked almost running with an anxious heart and opened the door of Kian’s playroom wide.
And at that moment, I couldn’t help but marvel.
Fortunately, it seemed that Sicar was sober occasionally, and he did not turn Kian’s playroom into a training ground. Rather, it was made similar to a modern playroom.
Did he read my memory and reproduce the playroom of the present? With curiosity and excitement, I entered the playroom.
On one side of the playroom were stacked small balls, next to it was a small tent that could be Kian’s hideout, and various model blocks and teddy bears and other dolls.
Sicar, who saw my admiring expression, slightly raised one corner of his mouth as if this was nothing.
“How about it? Is it worth seeing?”
Of course it’s worth seeing. I looked at Sicar, clasping my hands as if I was in awe.
“How did you ever think of making something like this?”
“When I saw your memories, it looked like a children’s playroom. Just right for Blake’s playroom.”
It was a playroom made more for the dignity of a duke than for Kian.
But it was fine. Whatever its purpose, it would make Kian happy.
And, well, I was worried if the playroom would be decorated like a ghost house, but it was very well decorated.
“I think Kian will like it a lot.”
“Then I guess I need to call Kian now.”
“It would be nice if you could call Bica and Durion as well.”
Sicar asked, with a face that he could not agree.
“Why them?”
“Kids like playing with a lot of people. I think it would be better if Bica and Durion were with us, not just the two of us. Right now, they’re the only ones who can play with Kian.”
“It won’t be hard.”
Bica and Durion, who were called by Sicar, looked around the room and were surprised.
Having always dealt with things like swords, axes, and spears, they reacted strangely to these cute things, perhaps because it was their first time seeing them.
“Why does the room look like this?”
“Duke, is this… are these new totems?”
Sicar wasn’t interested in their reactions.
“Sit down and pick these up.”
This time, they opened their mouths wide at the sight of the colored paper in front of them. Of course, the reactions were different; Bica was astonished, and Durion was a bit excited.
“What? You want me to fold a piece of paper?”
“Is this something you use to curse people?”
“It’s a game. A fun game to play with Kian.”
“A fun game? You’ve really become weird since you got married.”
“Bica, it’s a fun game. Like summoning undead, right?”
Sicar, feeling the limits of his patience, tossed the colored papers towards Bica and Durion, rubbing his forehead. Bica and Durion quickly caught the colored papers thrown by Sicar.
“It’s a game to play with Kian. Sit quietly and watch what I do, and just fold the paper.”
“Ugh. In my 140year life, I’ve come to play the most useless game.”
Durion, still unable to believe this was reality, looked at Sicar and Bica, blinked his eyes a few times, then picked up the colored paper.
“Really, just fold the paper?”
Yes, you villains. Just fold the paper! You wouldn’t know because you’ve never had such an innocent experience in your life.
Bica and Durion seemed really reluctant to fold these, but they couldn’t refuse Sicar’s command, staring at them with wide eyes, and they began to fold the colored papers in their hands, grumbling.
Only then did Sicar call the servant.
“Go and bring Kian.”
“Yes, Your Grace.”
Finally, Kian is going to see this room. I wondered what kind of reaction Kian would have when he saw this room. I was so curious and excited that my heart was pounding.
Would Kian dislike it? I hope he’s happy. I couldn’t calm my trembling heart, and I looked at Sicar with my flushed face and said.
“Sicar… I’m so nervous right now……”
Hearing my words, Sicar flinched a little, then quickly looked at Bica and Durion and said to me.
“I don’t think you need to show that you like me that much, especially in front of Bica and Durion.”
Why is it like this?
Looking around, I noticed Bica and Durion gaping at me. Could they think that I’m showing too much affection for Sicar?
Sicar coughed a few times and replied.
“Normally. Yura trembles whenever she sees me.”
‘That’s because I’m scared.’
Then, Bica shook his head as if to tsk tsk, saying, ‘What a unique taste your ladyship has.’ Durion pointed his thumb at me and said.
“You two really look great together!”
‘No, it’s not really like that!’
What should I do with these villains who are all stuck in misunderstanding……
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.
