49 Times Left, Master! (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 48
Was my disciple this quick to anger even before my regression?
‘Although, of course, he isn’t angry now…’
Perhaps it’s because I once accepted a poisoned cup from his hand. Even the slightest odd look from my disciple makes me feel as though he’s furious, causing me to shrink back.
Yet even accounting for the fact that I’ve grown more fearful of my disciple than I was before my regression, his gaze has indeed become somewhat sharper.
Before my regression, he never looked at me that way. That’s why I never anticipated being poisoned by my disciple in my previous life.
“Why are you like that…?”
I couldn’t possibly pretend not to notice such a look, so I asked very softly. At the same moment, Lin Hwa’s gaze finally shifted from the Emperor toward my disciple.
“No.”
My disciple instantly concealed his sharp gaze and replied in a calm voice.
“I was looking because your neck is long and lovely, Master.”
Lin Hwa raised her eyebrows and glanced rapidly between me and my disciple.
“Thank you…”
Though it sounded more like a threat than a compliment, I feigned obliviousness, bowed slightly, and then pointlessly looked back toward the Emperor again. Fortunately, the Emperor wasn’t looking this way at the moment.
But I couldn’t move my head because I kept feeling someone’s gaze from behind.

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
