History at the Library

Chapter 120

Wind Becomes a Storm (1)

It was a beautiful night with a large full moon shining softly on the son-in-law.

As predicted yesterday, the Emperor, who visited the library again today, looked irritated.

“You’re really here.”

Vivian said, as she waved the wrists captured by the emperor. In her hand was a book that she was about to put on the shelf. She meant to let go of the book because it hindered her from organizing it. The nonchalant attitude made Julian’s smooth forehead rise with the vision of blood.

“If We were coming, shouldn’t you just stick to the counter? We went around the library looking for something like you.”

“I’m sorry, Your Majesty, but I’m a librarian.”

“If you don’t want to do that librarian thing for the last time today, you’d better stop talking back.”

“Oh, don’t grab me by the collar. I heard something from the Grand Duke yesterday.”

She said with a tearful face when the Emperor grabbed her collar without hesitation.

Aiden came to Vivian at dawn, just like when he walked in and out of the library pretending to be a scholar, but Julian crumpled her collar. She couldn’t fix it right away , so she was caught because she even ripped the button.

“Who did this?”

His face quickly turned scary and asked what was going on. But Vivian couldn’t bear to say that the Emperor grabbed her by the collar. She was talking to the Emperor’s brother.

She didn’t know where the fire would go, and she didn’t want to make a big deal out of nothing in the first place. Vivian made a rough case. She grabbed her collar unconsciously and pulled it off because her neck was stuffy. To be honest, it was an excuse that wouldn’t work, but she seemed to be getting away with it.

But she got grabbed by the collar again!

“You didn’t tell him about Us, did you?”

“I did not bring up even the Majesty’s ‘Lung’.”

Julian snorted and let her go.

Vivian, who had been swept away by her clothes, gently swept the prickly neck with her palm and put the book back in. The book cart was almost empty as today’s work is almost done.

It was thanks to the Emperor’s hard work from early evening to keep the time free at night as he went away after declaring that he would come today. However, the Emperor seemed to be disgusted that she was not at the counter and had to find her only for a few minutes.

Oh, I know. I’m sorry I couldn’t invite you.

Vivian grumbled inside and pouted her lips.

Julian stood there staring at her. Judging from her arms and legs, she seemed to be in the mood to see what he was doing.

“What? I thought you’d bring up the business like yesterday.”

Vivian rolled her eyes in awkwardness and looked at him. There seemed to be something to say, but he seemed hesitant to bring it up.

Oh, my God, look at the expression. That’s why Cardel is scared. I can’t believe you can only use your handsome face like that.

She shrugged her shoulders and began to organize her books again. The clean-up was nearing its end, so it was not long before it was finished.

Vivian stepped down from the ladder, pushed it to the edge, and left the cart in place. Then she stood in front of the restless emperor who looked like a puppy that had to poop and waited for him to speak.

At the end of the day, he opened his mouth as he repeatedly opened and closed his lips.

“We admit, you were right. We think we like her.”

Julian said so and gulped down. He was trying hard to pretend nothing was wrong, but in Vivian’s eyes, he was very nervous, as if he was confessing his love.

Look at his red face. It’s going to explode.

Vivian thought she’d point it out, but quit because she thought he was really going to run away.

Now that  she looked at it, the Emperor looked thinner and more haggard than yesterday. He couldn’t have been able to sleep because he was worried. Just imagining how troublesome the Emperor must have been until his pride touched heaven brought that up was enough to burst into laughter.

Vivian almost laughed out loud, forgetting who she was. How can she not laugh because he was acting like a boy who fell in love for the first time at his age? However, she managed to contain her laughter by exerting superhuman power.

She covered her nose and mouth with her palm and shivered her shoulders with her head down.

“You’re smiling right now.”

“Oh, well, that can’t be true. I was so touched by your honesty that I didn’t know.”

“That’s a very good lie.”

“I wouldn’t dare to lie to anyone who keeps me safe.”

“Look back on your appearance so far and tell us about your safety.”

Julian has now almost half given up responding to Vivian’s rudeness. He couldn’t even kill that one anyway. As she said, Vivian was the only one who would offer a way to return Julian-Cardel’s relationship to the good side.

Seeing her write a love-related novel, she seemed to be very open-minded, and it was because Cardel was the only friend she liked openly.
