The only thing I did was stitch up a teddy bear with unraveled threads.
‘I was worried about what Yurik might think…….’
It must have been a needless worry.
“Y, Yo, Yurik. I can’t breathe…….”
I thought I might die of suffocation from Yurik, who was holding me tightly.
I pushed Yurik’s chest, but it was useless. Eventually, Roger, who was watching us blankly, pulled Yurik and me apart.
“Enough! Break it up!”
Roger said with an angered voice. Then Yurik glared at him fiercely. Roger was not intimidated by Yurik, who was two years older.
“Don’t fight! Ro, Roger. You didn’t forget my wish, did you?”
Before another fight broke out, I quickly spoke, and Roger’s anger immediately subsided.
“A wish?”
Yurik spat out his displeasure at hearing a story he didn’t know.
“I won the game earlier. So I told Roger my wish.”
“Why tell only that guy?”
“I wished that you and Roger wouldn’t fight and would get along a little better.”
Yurik did not wipe the frown from his face, as if he did not like the wish. I couldn’t ruin things with just one small wish, especially in this hardwon relaxed atmosphere.
“Fine! I’ll wish for something else.”
As I spoke, the two of them stared at me as if waiting. I decided to give up my desire for them to be friends. It was only a matter of time before their relationship would improve.
As long as neither of them was on bad terms with me, they would often meet, and even hatred would grow between them. Unwanted affection. The two didn’t know how scary that could be.
“Lise, I’ll do whatever you ask. What’s your wish?”
“I can only do what’s possible. I won’t do anything hard.”
I pondered. I had a wish I wanted to make, but could these two fulfill it?
‘Yes. They’re just kids, so I should wish for something small.’
I neatly folded the wish I wanted to make and thought of a simple one. What should I wish for? It had to be a small wish that those two could easily fulfill. I also had to satisfy the two men who were looking at me with hopeful eyes.
“……Okay. Massage my shoulders!”
My shoulders and neck were stiff from poking my head out and looking at the chessboard, so this worked out well. I felt proud that I had chosen the wish appropriately. Was I not Solomon?
“Is that really all you want? Even if it’s not a wish, I can massage your shoulders all day.”
Yurik objected as soon as I made the wish.
“Isn’t that too modest? If it were me, I would have asked to dig for gold right away.”
Roger was also disappointed. What kind of wish were they thinking of? Just by looking at their faces now, it seemed like they wouldn’t be satisfied unless I asked for a whole house.
“So you’re not going to do it? It’s my wish, isn’t it?”
When I spoke in a disappointed tone, Roger and Yurik immediately came to my side, and Roger started massaging my left shoulder, while Yurik massaged my right.
It was refreshing, but the strength was extreme. Roger was weak, and Yurik was painful. Also, Roger only massaged the tough spots, while Yurik targeted the sore and weak spots.
“Yu, Yurik! That’s too painful!”
“Oh, sorry.”
Yurik was startled by my scream and immediately took his hands off my shoulder. Then Roger giggled.
“Can’t you do it well? Lise is in pain.”
“Roger, you’re too soft. Massage a bit harder.”
“Ah, like this?”
“A little more.”
Roger put more strength into his hands. This time, Yurik clicked his tongue.
“Can’t you do it properly? Lise is not satisfied.”
“What? I can, I can be strong too, even if I’m only twelve!”
Again, again. The two are fighting.
“Oh, you two are massaging Lise’s shoulders.”
Mrs. Fenton sat on the sofa with a teacup in hand. In her eyes, the sight of two men massaging my shoulders and quarreling must have seemed quite friendly. A smile was continually on the lady’s face.
Yurik and Roger massaged my shoulders for a few minutes.
“That should be enough. Thank you both.”
It was really refreshing. My stiff shoulders felt somewhat relieved, and I was quite satisfied, but the two of them apparently were not.
“So what’s the next wish?”
“Tell us the next wish.”
Huh? The next wish? I was taken aback by Yurik and Roger’s words.
“You fool? You won the game five times. So you have five wishes.”
At Roger’s words, I felt a blow to the back of my head. So I have to think of four more appropriate wishes?
“Lise, tell us something you want to do this time, not like the shoulder massage.”
Yurik kindly and warmly gave me a big problem. Mrs. Fenton, who was sitting in front of me, also put down her tea cup, curious about my wish.
……Is this a punishment?
It’s really burdensome. Should I ask for a massage on my arms this time? But Yurik and Roger might be disappointed. Those two were expecting me to say something splendid and grand.
Should I ask for gold?
“Tell me. If you really want gold as this guy says, I can give you something of greater value.”
“Hmph, an object? I’ll talk to my mother and really give you gold.”
Crazy guys. I must never bring up gold.
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.
