Fostering the Male Lead - Chapter 56

“Ugh! Aack!”

Surprised by the apple pie that was suddenly stuffed in my mouth, I pushed away Lanoa as hard as I could.

Clack! Crash!

Lanoa fell back and his body rolled on the floor. Seeing how he couldn’t even get up properly, he was already in a drunken stupor.

“Ugh, are you crazy? My jaw is aching!”

Touching my throbbing jaw, I grabbed Lanoa by his collar while he struggled on the floor. I had no idea why he was acting this way It was probably because he was worried that I woke up in the same bed as Sihael.

I could understand his thoughts, but it was just too much.

“I told you. Nothing, seriously nothing happened! If you’re really drunk, just eat well and then retire to your room to sleep!”

“Something can happen in the future!”

“What kind of nonsense are you on about? His Majesty and I are simply friends! Whatever you’re thinking, it’s nothing like that!”

I yelled, turning to face Sihael while clutching Lanoa’s collar.

“Please, Your Highness, don’t provoke this jerk and just go along with me! If you act like you usually do, he’ll really believe it!”

No matter how much Sihael enjoyed pulling pranks, there could be no middle ground here.

I stuffed a crumpled apple pie into Lanoa’s mouth for the last time after threatening Sihael.

He did, however, appear to be insane. He kept smiling while eating the apple pie.

‘He must have really gone crazy….’

I let go of his collar and smacked him on the head. Then I heard a cracking sound coming from behind his head.

‘It’s not as if I care if his head cracks or rolls off his neck but…’

Lanoa, who was whining and grabbing the back of his head, raised his arms and cried out.

“Never in the future…!”

“Just shut your mouth!”

Lanoa, who was hit in the thigh by my fist, continued to drink until the end of the meal.

“Your Highness, let’s throw this guy away and then go out.”

“…..”

“Your Highness?”

“Yeah. If only I could throw him away somewhere.”

His voice as he glared at Lanoa was terrifying.

“Yes?”

“Wouldn’t it be better to put him away in his room?”

He just glared at Lanoa like he was going to kill him…

Sihael approached me, tilting his head and softening his gaze.

“Alright, let’s go.”

Well, did I see it wrong?

When Nanabi returned in the afternoon and saw Sihael, who had become a human being, she covered her mouth.

“How did this happen? How did His Highness suddenly turn back to a human?!”

“It just happened.”

Sihael, who had been in a dull mood since the earlier meal, answered curtly.

Nanabi slowly shook her head as if finding it hard to believe. She then sat down on the sofa and murmured, “If you were going to turn back to a human, why didn’t you turn back one day sooner, why today……”

I was also disappointed about it, but I could imagine how disheartened Nanabi would be now that she had brought Liliana herself.

“I stayed up all night, putting a barrier on the whole Duchy, and then brought Liliana as soon as the sun came up…”

Nanabi said desperately. After seeing her pale face, I felt sorry for her. Even though it was quite disheartening, I had no other choice but to see the female lead.

“What about Liliana?”

“……She’s waiting in the drawing room.”

At her response, I stood up and dragged Sihael by the arm.

“Let’s go quickly, Your Highness.”

“Since I’m now fine, do I really need to meet her? Just tell her to go.”

“What if you’re not cured completely? Hurry up and get up! Come on, hurry up!”

I also had to bring the two protagonists together who couldn’t meet because I messed up the original work.

‘Because their first meeting was ruined, him imprinting on Lilliana was highly unlikely, but if they get used to each other’s faces, it might all work out in the future.’

Sihael’s eyes narrowed when I pulled both of his arms. He still didn’t move. It was like pulling a radish from the ground.

“Why are you being so strong?”

“Your Highness, she’s here. Let’s go!”

With a glum expression, he refused to budge.

I still grabbed and yanked on his arm, and he reluctantly followed me. It was quite inconvenient because he kept dragging his steps. It was like dragging a child to the hospital who didn’t want to go.

“You were so happy when you were fighting with Lanoa, but why are you so glum now?”

“Because of someone who doesn’t care about me.”

“Who? Lanoa?”

“Ha… Never mind. I’ll just work harder.”

“Well, I don’t know what it is, but all the best.”

Sihael sighed and ruffled my hair roughly when I raised my right hand and fisted it in a ‘all the best’ pose.
