Whitney’s eyes snapped open. Before the maids could even enter, she flung the window wide open.
“I just wanted to know if he’s alright…”
Yet the letter she awaited never arrived. Whitney glanced repeatedly out the window with regret, but the pure white, lovely bird was nowhere to be seen.
Once again, it seemed he wouldn’t reply.
A maid entered with a knock at the door. Whitney washed her face, changed her clothes, and headed to the dining room for breakfast.
“Is the meal to your liking?”
“Yes, it’s delicious. Was there anything unusual?”
Sipping the warm tea, she felt as if her body were melting. Perhaps because the social season was approaching, the general atmosphere seemed unusually lively.
“Has there been any letter from the Ducal Mansion?”
“No, nothing specific was mentioned.”
Whitney nodded and took a spoonful of soup. As usual, today’s creamy soup, filled with onions and meat, tasted wonderful.

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.

I wonder why all the heroines fail to understand that the other person has fallen in love with them and instead come up with flimsy excuses. 😅
Bro, what’s wrong with this despicable man? He’s disgusting 😮💨How can he aspire to be king when he’s so vile?
Oh my God, he’s so shy and innocent! I can’t believe he’s so easy to get. 🤭🤭
