Chapter 35



On the way back from the royal palace, there was a transport wagon accident in the Eastern Quarter. A box of vanilla had slipped in the rain, tilting the wagon and temporarily blocking the street. I stamped the temporary arrangement permit, helped direct the guards and residents, and sent only the star signal ahead to Iris.

(Sorry, Iris. Tonight, I wanted to exchange three lines with you—but I could only send the star signal.)

By dawn, I finally returned to the mansion.
A faint citrus scent lingered in the anteroom.
On the dresser, a waterproof card lay face down.
I flipped it over to find your three lines:
“I’m scared of this part of myself that seeks uncertainty.”

A sharp pang echoed deep in my chest.
Calling it ‘cute’ wouldn’t begin to cover it.
(I want to be the chair for your “fear.”)

While boiling water, I wrote my three “good morning” lines.

Good Morning Three Lines (Laurent)
① I’m sorry I could only send the star signal during the night.
② I’m glad you’re seeking “uncertainty” (and that you can tell me about it).
③ May I hug you today? (Let’s discuss the signal.)

The bell chimed softly.
The morning light slowly rose.

Hidamari Engagement Record — The Adorable Fiancé and the Realist Lady

ひだまり婚約録 ― 可愛い彼と現実主義令嬢
Score 9.7
Status: Ongoing Type: Author: Released: 2025 Native Language: Japanese

Among the fiancé candidates chosen by her family, Lady Iris chooses—Roland, a hardworking civil officer whose gentle, fleeting smile is impossibly cute.

In social settings, they’re the perfect “ideal beautiful couple.” But when they’re alone, she casually praises him with “You’re so cute,” and he blushes to the tips of his ears—thus begins a sweetly “role-reversed” relationship of pampering.

Realist Iris dislikes “uncertainty.” She manages their relationship through practical methods, like three-line daily cards and a ritual of “choosing each other anew every day.”
Roland, meanwhile, faces his quiet insecurity: “I wonder if you really love me.”

Through humorous and affectionate exchanges, rainy-day closeness, and occasional work-related misunderstandings, they untangle their hearts using “rules that can be lived by.”
In the end, the two arrive at a confession that isn’t about proof, but about choice.

 

—A story that tumbles comically yet ends tenderly, wrapping the finale in a sunlit warmth like a day spent in the gentle light. A pure love story that begins with an engagement.
