In the past, Dension initially didn’t understand but eventually respected the novel’s heroine’s decision. However, the current Dension still seemed unable to empathize with her situation, merely shrugging.
‘You weren’t like this in the past…’
Despite knowing he was the same person, the discrepancy she felt each time was bitter and unavoidable.
Yet, Viare was curious whether the current Dension could understand his past actions.
“If you had to leave someone you love, what reason would you think of?”
Puzzled by her question, Dension looked at her as she subtly added that she had read it in another book.
“Are you talking about a situation where someone disappears?”
Nodding, Viare waited anxiously for his response.
“Yes. In such a scenario, what do you think would be the reason?”
‘Zion, what would your answer be?’
Once, she had cried alone in her room, thinking it was a change of heart. She wondered if she could now understand his feelings.
“Hmm, in that situation…”
Viare waited quietly for his answer, hoping her pounding heart wouldn’t be heard.
“If it were me, I wouldn’t have left my lover in the first place.”
“But still… you never know.”
“I wonder if there’s a need to leave, especially if it means causing pain.”
“…….”
At his words, Viare bit her tightly closed lips, unable to respond.
‘Zion, why did you have to leave?’
It was possible that by then, Dension might have guessed who was behind the death of the previous Duke and their involvement in it.
However, recalling the past year when Dension’s whereabouts were unknown weighed heavily on her mind.
‘If I can just get Raymon’s key, I can approach the truth.’
Lost in thought, Viare was interrupted as Dension mentioned he had evening plans, with a troubled expression.
“It seems I must be going now.”
Realizing now, Dension had stayed with her, concerned about her waiting alone for the Duke.
“You should go. I’m fine.”
As she said this, Viare took off the jacket she was wearing, folded it neatly, and handed it back to him.
“Thanks to you, I was able to wait warmly for my father.”
“You could have returned it next time we met…….”
Just then, the rain intensified into a downpour, drowning out his words. Viare raised her voice to ask,
“Duke, what did you just say?”
“……Nothing important. It seems the Duke of Ruschev is leaving the council chamber now.”
Dension put his uniform jacket back on, bowed, and left. Viare watched his departing figure discreetly, making sure not to be noticed by anyone.
The Duke, who had been searching for Viare urgently, finally found her standing under the tree and approached with an apologetic look.
“Viare, I’m sorry. Did you wait long?”
“Just a bit. Did the meeting go well?”
“Yes, His Majesty the Emperor suddenly requested an audience.”
The Duke, looking sorrowful as if distressed by Viare waiting in the cold, said with concerned eyes,
“Why didn’t you wait inside? You catch cold easily…….”
Unable to confess her true feelings to her father, Viare responded with a faint smile,
“The air inside felt a bit stuffy, so I waited outside.”
The Duke, warming her hands with his own, conveyed a tenderness that felt strangely dissonant to Viare.
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.
