The next morning.
After breakfast, Lamein finished preparing to depart for Duke Haribo’s mansion.
“Milady. The carriage is ready.”
Lamein, dressed in a light purple dress, as if tinged with lilac petals, left her room.
Her eyes wandered to beyond the window as she walked down the corridor.
She saw Killien leaving the mansion’s main gate on horseback.
‘Where is he going?’
Lamein looked at Killien’s back with a subtle gaze.
Lucia had called to express her thanks, but it was clearly an invitation.
It didn’t seem polite to go emptyhanded, so she had gone to town with Jane the day before to buy a gift.
She happened to see Killien there.
‘Surely, I must be mistaken?’
Lamein took her eyes off Killien, now a mere dot in the distance.
“Ah, right. Jane. Did you remember it?”
“You mean the gift for Princess Haribo?”
“Yes.”
“Yes. I have it.”
A small brooch had been chosen as Lucia’s gift.
“I hope she likes it.”
“They said it’s the most popular thing among young ladies her age, so why wouldn’t she like it?”
“I can’t think of what to say if she regifts it.”
“……Pardon?”
“Never mind.”
Lamein pushed her tightly closed lips up in a pout.
What she felt again when she went to the jewelry store yesterday was,
‘The shopkeepers in this world all seem like thieves.’
The prices they called out for everything she picked up were beyond imagination.
“But it really was pretty. Princess Haribo will love it.”
Lamein looked at Jane, who spoke with an excited smile.
“Shall I buy one for Jane too? Do you want it? I’ll give it to you as a gift.”
“What? No, Milady! No!”
Jane waved her hands as if they were about to fall off.
“You already gave me a hairpin last time. Another gift!”
Her eyes said it was preposterous.
‘Well, if I keep doing this, it’ll be uncomfortable.’
It might be trivial to herself, but to her maid Jane, it would not be.
“Did you try the hairpin?”
Lamein looked intently at Jane’s face and asked.
“I tried it when I was alone.”
“How was it? Did it suit you?”
Jane blinked her eyes slowly as if thinking about Lamein’s question.
“I don’t know if it suited me or not. But it made me feel good.”
It’s natural to feel good when you see something pretty.
She must be a girl, Lamein thought, just then.
“I felt happy because it felt like I was recognized as Milady’s person.”
Jane’s shy yet joyfilled smile, filled with a sense of pride, shone beautifully before her eyes.
Was it such a joy to see someone happy?
A small thrill in her heart made Lamein take a deep breath.
A smile formed at the corner of Lamein’s eyes, who was looking gently.
“Jane has always been my person.”
“Yes. That’s obvious. But wearing the hairpin gives me that feeling. It’s like becoming a knight with a knight’s badge. It was that kind of feeling.”
This time, Jane smiled brightly.
“A knight? With such a frail body, can you protect me?”
“Milady. I may look like this, but I’m strong.”
“Hmm. You seem weaker than me.”
Lamein said, looking at Jane’s slender arm.
“Don’t worry. If something happens to Milady, I’ll save you.”
“Really?”
“Yes. Of course.”
Jane nodded firmly, as if there were no room for doubt.
“Then, when you come to save me, make sure you’re wearing the hairpin. So I can recognize Jane at once.”
“Yes, Milady.”
Jane’s firm answer was somehow cute, and Lamein moved on, smiling.
When she reached the carriage,
“Good morning, Milady.”
The coachman, who had been waiting for her, greeted her.
“I’ve carefully checked the carriage today to make sure there is no unfortunate incident like a wheel breaking.”
Because of the accident that day, Cedric had sternly reprimanded the coachmen and the servants in charge of the carriage.
“Good. You’ve worked hard.”
Lamein replied lightly and got into the carriage.
As the carriage started, Lamein, who had captured the scenery outside the window, sighed softly.
Several big and small incidents had happened since she came into this world.
Of course, another accident like the carriage wheel breaking should not happen again.
‘Isn’t something going to happen again today?’
Another worry began to form in case something else happened.
‘I wish it would just go quietly today.’
Lamein sighed again as the figure of Duke Roger gradually receded from her view.
.
.
.
‘Now she’s leaving.’
Cedric stood quietly by his room window, watching Lamein get into the carriage.
Roberto, who was standing by the door, was watching in silence as well.
As the carriage carrying his wife departed.
“Roberto.”
Cedric called Roberto in a low voice.
“Yes. What do you want?”
“I have somewhere to go. Tell my father I will go directly to Count Morris’s mansion.”
Cedric, having spoken, wrapped the jacket he had previously hung over the chair around himself.
“Where are you going? Is something wrong?”
Roberto asked cautiously, noticing Cedric’s overly heavy expression.
“It’s nothing like that. If my father asks, just beat around the bush.”
“Yes. I understand.”
Roberto replied briefly without asking further.
“I’ll be back.”
“Yes. Come back.”

One-line summary: Forced to live stream romance with a top celebrity in a female-dominant world.
Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
