Due to tension, her hand trembled as she closed the window.
Sitting across from him, she bit her lips, clenching her fist. A moment of cold silence passed. Surely, he must have been quite angry about yesterday’s incident, but he said nothing, just staring intently at her.
“Yesterday, I might have spoken too much. I’m sorry.”
“…Yes. What?”
She thought she misheard. She hadn’t expected an apology from him.
While pondering what to say in response to such a situation, his head tilted slightly to one side.
“Who told you that story?”
“What story are you talking about?”
“The story about me going crazy if it were a woman. Did Kim Hee-gyeom spread such rumors?”
“Oh, no. Master would never say such things. I really apologize.”
“Well?”
“I heard it from people. I spoke without thinking, knowing it was just a rumor. I’m truly sorry.”
Although she was indeed upset by his words, saying such things in that situation was also reckless on her part.
Just as she was about to apologize again, he leaned in close, and she held her breath.
“That’s not entirely incorrect. It’s true that I go crazy over women. It becomes a problem when it’s particularly intense with one person.”
He spoke with a mocking tone, but there was a hint of laughter in his voice.
Wondering what on earth he was saying, she averted her gaze. Since coming to Unyeong Palace, the Grand Prince she had seen was quite different from the rumors.
Contrary to the rumors of him being lecherous, he seemed excessively neat and dignified, not showing much interest in drinking.
She even thought that the numerous rumors surrounding the Grand Prince might all be false.
Anyway, he mentioned going crazy over one person. Who could that be?
She was curious about the person, but she couldn’t bring it up.
Lowering her head, she swallowed a sigh.
Suddenly, his fingertips lifted her chin, preventing her from avoiding his gaze.
Then, he smiled slightly.
“Wouldn’t you be curious about what would happen when a man who goes crazy over women meets a woman who can drive him insane?”
She couldn’t breathe.
His face was too close. The heat rising from his neck made her face feel as if it were on fire.
His eyes strangely glowed.
“Why is your face so red? Did you imagine something?”
“N-no, it’s not that. Please let go.”
“If that’s not the case…”
As his lips slowly approached hers, someone called him from outside.
“Your Highness. Seoryeom is here.”
At the timely interruption by Seoryeom, his attention shifted away from her.
“What’s going on?”
“I have completed the preparations to enter the palace.”
“I’ll go soon, so go ahead.”
Come to think of it, something felt strange. He was wearing a purple ceremonial robe instead of a regular robe. Considering that he stopped by without completing the preparations to enter the palace at this early hour, it made me somewhat annoyed.
Nevertheless, thinking that it’s fortunate it’s just this much, I suppressed the breath I was holding.
“The rest of the conversation will be held when you come to the palace, so get ready.”
“Get ready? What do you mean?”
“It’s been quite a while since the wedding, but if we haven’t held the first night ceremony, people might say something about me.”
Standing up from his seat, he adjusted his clothes and added quietly, “Our true first night will be tonight.”
Suddenly, my heart began to beat loudly. He was saying he would come here tonight.
She raised her gaze to look at him. His eyes still showed no sign of wavering.
“Tonight, I will sleep here with my wife. So, wait for me.”
“…”
“Why aren’t you answering?”
“…Yes. I’ll get ready.”
“Then, I’ll be going.”
It’s been a long time since I visited Daebijeon alone. Since going to the palace, he rarely entered the palace unless there was a special occasion. He knew he wouldn’t hear anything good in the palace, and another reason was for his mother, Daebi.
His mother, who succeeded the late Queen as the Queen Mother, sincerely loved and cherished his older brother, who was the son of the late Queen. You could tell that just by seeing how his mother and brother still maintained a close relationship.
He, too, had not been denied his mother’s love, but he never expressed his feelings openly. It had always been like that since he was a child. He distanced himself first to avoid his mother being misunderstood because of him.
From the moment he learned to speak, he knew what the palace was like. It was a place that would tear into any little flaw without hesitation.
If his mother had shown interest in him, he could guess what might happen. There would be talk of plotting against the Crown Prince, trying to put the Crown Prince in a precarious situation, and various political maneuvers.
So, he kept his distance first. For his mother’s sake, his actions might have been a bit disappointing.
Un looked down at the medicine on the table as he put down the teacup. Seeing that, a smile appeared on Daebi’s face.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
