To You Whom I Don’t Love That Much (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 036
36.
The eldest son of the Dreuire family possessed moderately decent looks, average character, and wealth so abundant it bordered on excessive. He regarded marriage as an outdated relic of a bygone era—a rigid institution suppressing human instincts. The actresses he dated changed weekly, and this year he had just turned thirty. Contrary to Cardier’s rather low opinion, society at large considered him a quite desirable bachelor.
And what mattered most at this very moment was that he had proposed to Rosetta merely two days prior. As soon as he sat down, Rosetta offered him tea and asked,
“You didn’t send flowers today.”
“No need to. Skip the tea—would you mind giving me a ride in your carriage?”
It was a strangely distant way of speaking. Rosetta nodded half-heartedly and waited until he took a deep drag from his cigar. Soon, a disgustingly expensive, pungent scent began creeping into the air. Lo wrinkled her nose to suppress a sneeze and spoke.
“I’ve come to give you an answer about your earlier proposal.”
At her words, the eldest son of House Dreuire opened his eyes wide in apparent surprise. His smile lingered. Avoiding Rosetta’s gaze, he tapped the ash from his cigar into the tray.
“I assumed you’d already rejected it.”
“I needed time to think carefully. I’d like to follow what Young-woon suggested—extend our engagement period.”
“……”
“I’d feel rather pressured rushing into marriage right away. Especially since my memories still aren’t fully restored.”
“The way you casually mix formal and informal speech is one of Lady Young-ae’s charming quirks.”
He replied with a soft chuckle, his eyes distant as if reminiscing about good old days. They had only met a week ago, after all. But no matter—this was fine. Regardless of how sentimental he was, their relationship would end at engagement. Rosetta shrugged.
“How about holding the engagement ceremony this coming autumn?”
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
Short intro:
What she can’t stand the most is the streets full of effeminate men, especially that so-called top beauty whom she avoids at all costs.
Shen Yaoxing looks at Jiang Mingyue, who keeps approaching her with coy shyness.
Shen Yaoxing: Bro, don’t be like this, I’m really about to throw up!
She fears nothing in heaven or earth, except for him getting close to her.
*
At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
This dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Mingyue, and he vowed to make her, like everyone else, fall at his feet in worship!
