To My Beloved, I Present My Exquisite Nightmare (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 188
Eustar let out a sigh that sounded like a groan, his expression momentarily blank.
Laila grabbed his right hand, which had sunk limply into the water, and pulled him up as if rescuing him. When she pressed her lips to the tips of his fingers steeped in fragrance and then pulled away, Laila felt something deep within her swell up, full and complete.
It was utterly unfamiliar… yet wonderful—a profound, genuine satisfaction like that of a pilgrim who had finally ended a long, long journey.
“Can’t it be undone?”
Eustar asked in a low voice, his words trembling as if he were about to cry. Laila moved closer to him. Their legs tangled in the smooth water, skin meeting skin.
Laila thought she wanted to draw Eustar entirely into her embrace.
If he were to melt away, she would hold and swallow every last drop, carefully, so that not a speck would be lost—so he would dissolve completely into her heart, her veins, her blood.
Perhaps this was what people called greed, Laila thought. She felt she could finally understand, even just a little, the possessiveness ordinary humans spoke of.
“There’s no way to undo it, Eustar.”
Laila said.
“Even if there were, I wouldn’t do it.”
Worry-lined wrinkles gathered at the corners of Eustar’s wide-open eyes.
Still holding Laila’s hand, he remained silent for a while before bowing his head. A droplet fell from his forehead, making a quiet *plop* as it sank below the water’s surface.
“…I wanted to set you free. But now… if things turn out like this, I’ll never be able to grant you freedom again.”
Eustar had once promised her freedom—the freedom to live without scorn or oppression from anyone, including a place where she could thrive entirely on her own.
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.
