“You are busy. And it’s just clothes, I can dress myself.”
“Even so, Miss, next time don’t do it alone, please call me!”
“Alright, alright. I understand.”
As we left the mansion, Bitty followed. Once we passed through the garden and out the main gate, the village of Hosha was in full view. There were crowds of people filling the street along with the regular market.
Unlike the crowded streets, the mansion next to the mountain was surrounded by dense trees. To go on an errand, we had to go down the hill towards the market, but my steps moved sideways.
“Miss! Miss Lise! Where are you going?”
A flustered Bitty called after me in haste. From the beginning, I never intended to just go on a simple errand.
As I dashed into the forest, a surprised Bitty quickly followed. Passing through the trees, a small lake came into view. It was still winter, so the frozen lake had no fish visible.
I assessed the thickness of the ice on the lake before stepping on it. After playing on the slippery lake for a while, I saw a flower bed at the far end.
Flowers of various colors were boasting their hues. Among them, a purple flower that only blooms in winter caught my eye.
“Miss!”
“Just a moment! Let’s look around a bit!”
“Wait, wait! Please wait!”
Ignoring Bitty’s desperate calls, I ran towards the flower bed.
I made my way through the tall flowers that reached my head. As I moved forward, I sensed someone’s presence. A few steps further, I discovered a boy and a girl sitting in the middle.
The silver hair that matched the flowers gleamed in the sunlight. The deep blue eyes, even bluer than the sea, seemed to pierce through me. Their dolllike appearance made my body stiffen.
“Huh? It’s the girl next door!”
The little girl pointed at me with her finger and spoke. At the same time, the boy, who had discovered me, closed the book he was reading and scowled.
It was clear that I was not welcome.
“Let’s go, Uune.”
The boy got up from his seat.
“Why? I want to stay longer!”
“Mother told us to come home quickly.”
This was the first time we’d met face to face, so I was stunned.
But that didn’t mean I didn’t know who they were.
I saw the Count’s mansion of the Fenton family behind the flower garden. It was the mansion where I lived, the neighboring house to the Marsen family, and also the place where the protagonist of the novel “Hero of the Fenton House” lived.
Yes, the beautiful boy who is now glaring at me was the male protagonist, Yurik Fenton.
… Someday, he will put me on the execution stand.
The Marsen and Fenton families had not been on good terms since long ago. The Marsen family was full of corruption.
And later, Yurik, who would become the master of the Fenton family, exposed the corruption and put all the people of the Marsen family on the execution stand.
“Let’s go, Yune.”
“I said I don’t want to! Can we stay a little longer? The girl next door came too, right? Right?”
Did Yune know? From the beginning, the male protagonist, Yurik, did not like the children of the Marsen family.
“I felt disgusted every time I saw the stupid Marsen children.”
I remembered the description I had read before.
I tried to get out of the awkward situation, but the book in Yurik’s hand fell in front of me.
As soon as the book fell, the three of us remained still.
I looked down in the small silence at the open book. I thought Yurik would be reading a heroic tale or autobiography, but he was reading a fairy tale.
And it was filled with pretty fairies. That was a book I read when I was two years old, and I hadn’t looked at it since.
‘Ah, did he bring it to read to Yune?’
I thought secretly.
“Huh? It’s the book brother likes the most!”
Yune said, sobbing.
“…….”
“…….”
It wasn’t just read once or twice, judging by the wornout book.
I picked up the book that had fallen in front of me and dusted off the dirt. Then I held it out to Yurik, who had already turned his blushing face to grab the book.
Yurik, who tucked the book under his arm, headed straight for the Fenton mansion with his back turned. Holding his sister’s hand tightly.
“Nextdoor sister!”
It was then. Yune suddenly called me.
“What’s your name? What’s your name?”
“… Lise, Lise Marsen.”
“Lise? It’s a pretty name! Then let’s see each other again! Pretty sister!”
She smiled broadly and waved her hand big at me. I waved my hand timidly as well.
It was a sudden meeting. When my mind was blank, whether she had been looking for me all this time, I heard Bitty’s voice from afar.
“Miss! Where are you? Miss!”
“Ah…….”
I ran to Bitty. Bitty, who thought she had lost me, was almost in tears.
“I was so surprised, thinking I had lost you, Miss!”
“I’m sorry.”
“What on earth were you doing?”
“Just… I found some pretty flowers. It’s getting late, let’s go to the village before Mother scolds us.”
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
