The Young Lady Tames the Main Leads

Chapter 31

In fact, it was too urgent and sudden, so even I wasn’t really aware of what was going on.

However, realizing that it was dangerous and thinking that I had to stop it, I ran out without knowing and caught Nina. As I heard their cries, I blankly asked Nina, who I was holding.

“Are you okay, Your Highness?”

Nina, too, seemed embarrassed, and even the box was dropped on the other side, and tears were hanging around her eyes.

I was embarrassed to see Ninaina crying for the first time, but soon I was relieved to see a few knights riding their horses and going to catch the carriage earlier.

She wasn’t hurt though.

……I’m glad nothing happened.

I was still holding on to Nina. Suddenly, as I lowered my hand, I was trembling. It’s like entering and leaving a cold ice cube.

“……Th.”

Suddenly, Ninaina shook her lips with her head slightly lowered.

I can’t hear what she said, so I put my ears close.

“Well, what did you just say?”

“……Thanks. For saving me.”

Ninaina said in a subdued voice differently from usual.

What should I answer, while choosing for words, Ninaina continued.

“By the way, Lady was almost injured.”

Nina stuttered her words, unlike her.

As it turned out, she was sniffling. I said, soothing Nina.

“But I wasn’t hurt. Your Highness and me too. So…..”

It’s okay.

I laughed.

“Even if that would happen twice, I will save Your Highness again.”

***

What happened after that was, um.

First, the coachman of the carriage, who almost hurt Nina, was caught by the knights.

It turns out that he drank as much as possible and was drunk driving while in broad daylight.

The coachman is said to have been called to the imperial family and punished, but I have no idea what has happened since then……

“Please accept it, Lady Saeron.”

Ninaina came to her senses, picked up the box that had fallen on the ground, and handed it to me. The box that fell on the ground, thankfully had nothing on it, was reflected in the sunlight and shone in a wonderful gold color.

“Wow, there’s gold powder on the caramel!”

I was surprised to unpack Nina’s gift. It’s caramel, and it was elaborately hardened in the shape of various angels or animal statues placed in the imperial garden. Even the stomach was sprinkled with edible gold powder.

I sincerely thanked Nina for my reward.

And I realized it late when I got home, but the ribbon in this gift box’s color….

“It’s dark green.”

It was the same color as my eyes.

I wondered if Nina remembered what I had said before and laughed.

What also happened is, I was called to the imperial family a few days after the carriage accident. By the order of no one else but the Majesties Emperor and Empress.

‘……?’

I was served a very, very splendid dinner. I glanced at the chandelier on that high ceiling, and looked down at the view on the table that was splayed wide open in front of me, but it still didn’t feel real. I was invited to a meal by His Majesty the Emperor and the Empress.

The younger sister of the maid I saw in the kindergarten served next to me, and the emperor and her empress were sitting right across from me.

“It’s a thank you to Lady Saeron, the brave one who saved Nina, so don’t hesitate.”

Honestly, it was a little noticeable because I was called to the imperial family alone in an uncomfortable seat on both sides, even more without my mom and dad together.

But that’s only for a while. I quickly enjoyed the meal while admiring the wonderful imperial dinner. His Majesty also liked that I ate well.

In fact, dinner is also a dinner, and a gift is also a gift.

The most important thing I feel is that, somehow, Nina’s attitude has changed a little since I saved Nina.

“……Lady Saeron is the Marquis’ daughter, how can you share a table with me?”

Nina, who used to sit down and say to bring the royal table separately for kindergarten lunch, now casually eats with everyone at the original table.
