Thrilled by Madness (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 38
The evening in Italy, where the sun had just set.
Yoo Jung Hwa was waiting for someone’s call in a suite at a hotel in downtown Milan.
Drrrr, drrrr.
“Yes. Go ahead.”
Jung Hwa sat motionless, listening quietly to the voice from her phone—resembling a wax figure.
She was utterly exasperated by the report that they still couldn’t pinpoint the location of the Malaga mansion where Tae Seo Jun was staying.
Without a word, she hung up and slowly closed then opened her eyes, bringing the coffee cup to her lips and swallowing it bitterly, as if it were medicinal tea.
Since parting with him, she’d been with countless men, yet not a single one had satisfied her as a lover—except Tae Seo Jun, whose stunning looks captivated both eyes and mind, and whose perfection extended even to the bedroom. That was precisely why she couldn’t forget him. Yet, as perfect as he was, she’d always thought him lacking in wealth.
Only now, belatedly realizing that this misjudgment had been the gravest mistake of her life, Jung Hwa felt nothing but resentment toward Tae Seo Jun for having so thoroughly deceived her during their relationship.
Whenever confronting his biological father, his cries about owing nothing but debts were certainly no exaggeration.
He had to maintain the lavish lifestyle befitting a top star and also pay off journalists who knew about his promiscuous private life. But those expenses were mere drops in the bucket compared to the fortune completely stripped from him by threats from his own father—a man even more malicious than the devil himself.
Jung Hwa’s financial state had withered to the point where even acquaintances were asked for huge loans—like parched rice fields cracked open by drought. Her extreme measures against Yoo Byung Hwan had been part of her retaliation.
Yet even that had half-failed.
What am I to do now? Some people are born holding silver or golden spoons, but I’m not even as good as a twig floating uselessly in muddy water. Is my life, which went wrong from the very first button, doomed to stay this way until the end? Is my unhappiness solely because I was born to the wrong parents?
Just as she bitterly lamented her fate, the words that reached her from behind were utterly astonishing.
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.
