Heh, you keep trying to drive him into a corner to force him to be honest about his feelings... but it's not like you were ever honest with him either, Mr "I like a(nother) dude so be a good 'friend' and help me test it"
Gaaaaah... neither did they get to hear about the rebellion, nor about them planning treason against the duke, nor about the viscount's daughter's true appearance! Author-nim, why are you doing this to my blood pressure...!! (╯T﹏T)╯╧╧
So, dear Han Jei... you're a guy who's about to get married with a wedding right around the corner, who is not only lying his head on his friend's lap for comfort, but even wanting to share the bed... and you still thinks it's supposed to be just a "caring friend" relationship?
Dude, you need therapy...
Seems like events are forcing both the FL and ML to shift some of their attention away from their private "daily toxic dance" with each other, enough to *really* turn some of that attention on how the rest of the world is looking at them: the FL wants to hear the sister out, while the ML is starting to realize he can't possibly control all the variables in order to keep the FL safe while still beside him (...even if the attack wasn't just "bad luck", if you know what I'm saying...).
The ML angry at the mc for getting fooled by the younger celebrity guy. The real question would be, does he have a right to be angry at the "unequal treatment"? Well, if we talk from the emotional side, it's definitely a HUGE "no," but it's different if we're talking about his duties as a professional manager: from that perspective, the ML is at least right in one thing, that the mc works for him now, he's the one paying the mc's salary now, so the mc has no business wasting time with another celebrity, anymore. The mc accepted the ML's offer knowing it's a full time, exclusive job, that demands that his exclusive attention be given to just ONE single celeb at a time, but many times he ditched the celeb he was getting paid to take care of (and to accompany to events) in order to go see what the younger guy wanted or needed. It's obvious that the younger guy planned to keep calling him to his side with petty excuses and, if this kept on, it would end up causing the mc to really start neglecting his *current* job. (I mean... even if the mc had a boyfriend or girlfriend, he would still give any employer fair reason to fire him if he keep ditching the celeb he's working with, in order to go see what his lover wanted, each and every time the lover texted him!"
ML: "You only act assertive and say no when it's to me, and you only stand your ground when it's in front of me me. With anyone else, you lose your guts and act like a complete pushover."
Me: "Sorry, but I think he's right, babe... You've got to work on that 'selective bravery' of yours"
Emperor: 'OMG. Is this, like... turning her on?? ...And why the heck am I blushing?!!?!!'
XD XD XD
Chapter 55
Crown prince: (to the redhead lady) "Don't mind my wife, she's bi and used to do poly" (=・ω・=)
Amy: "Thank you for avenging me, Ill never forget it for the rest of my life"
Me: "The rest of your... 'life'...?" Girl, you're making me confused...
Seriously though, I'm a bit sad because I thought her goodbyes meant Amy was moving on in order to get reincarnated or sth (this is an Asian work so there's probably "old style" reincarnation for ghosts, isn't there?) ... as in, get reincarnated as a baby with a new chance and... stop being a ghost? She's free of all pending regrets so... why the heck is she still stuck as a ghost?? If solving their regrets doesn't allow them to reincarnate, how long are people stuck in that state?? It's starting to sound scaryyy???
Why so many stories with identical twins betraying each other... I've always heard that in real life identical twins love each other to death
She made him go back to his better hairstyle, so for once I won't focus on her hair sitting (≧∇≦)
Only DBZ Trunks looked good with that other hairstyle, m'boy. Your barber knows nothing
Lol, poor Rube was so nervous hahaha. She gave him so much stress...
He'll probably have Camilla followed by a ninja bodyguard, to keep his own sanity, from now on. XD XD
That tattoo on his neck... Is this guy a gangster? (Sorry, habit from manga)
Dear ML: snap out of it. Enough with the brainwashing that you should hate her. Enough with hating her as a way to deal with your own survivors' guilt (enough of making yourself feel guilty for loving her because you think it's a betrayal of those who died at her father's hand, or because it'd make you unworthy of being the only one that survived her father's bloodshed). Enough of thinking that the only way she won't feel disgust at your body carved with that "I'm a rentboy" message is if she also feels worthlessness.
And, more than anything else... Enough of sacrificing your own happiness for that country, for effing sake, Mr ML... You've already freed it! Now you leave the government to someone else and go live your own life! Preferably in some other country, too (and we all know you'd definitely want it to be *with* miss blondie)
You think you're so good and special, when all you are is just another pathetic nutjob using innocent women to vent his own personal issues.
And I still wonder... is this all he did? ...Did he or did he NOT also get revenge, on the ones that *actually* killed his sister?
I'm getting more and more vibes that ML is in the closet even inside his own darn mind... Like, at least, have some guts and come out to *yourself* already, man... Mr King of Mixed Signals. The mc should just be straight with him and force him to make a choice, if only to get rid of this emotional leech. (he needed to be slapped a couple of times or sth, to make him wake up of self-delusion limbo, make a darn choice, and stop clinging to the mc and weighing with his own indecision... darn emotional leech, I tell you)
Yeah, you love birds, go ahead and fight, break up, have an abusive segs sesion, or whatever... The relationship's been such gloom lately that I welcome ANY change.
(BTW, why are the comments making me more anxious than the story..)
"I don't know what you're thinking"
"Oh, nothing much... just drowning in a glass of water"
Love needs bravery: Love needs coomunication --> communication neads bravery --> Love needs bravery !
Be brave, baby, be BRAVE!!
(And if not... just ask, "Can you ask *insert girl's name* the name of the cake in that photo? I want to buy a cake just like that! *I don't know what you're thinking, but... I just want the cake!*")
WTF would the king and princes of that kingdom surrender their own country *just for Nicola*?? The "ultimate hostage"?? I'm sorry, author, but, ...what? That's NOT exactly a "Helen of Troy" nor a "Consort Daji" you've been drawing there, author-nim... My suspension of disbelief has gone down the drain..
