Even if Your Regret Holds Me Back (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 123
Ian deftly dodged Helena’s interference by fully utilizing his tall stature.
He held the paper high enough that no matter how far she stretched her arms, she couldn’t reach it, and finally unfolded it. His eyes swiftly scanned left and right, reading the words at the top.
“First: Watch the night sea with Camell. Oh, we actually accomplished that today. It was the most beautiful sea I’ve ever seen.”
“Are you really doing this?”
“Let me see—my name is written below too…”
“Give it back!”
Just as Ian was about to read aloud the second item, Helena stood on her tiptoes. She finally managed to snatch the paper away.
But in her eagerness, she lost her balance. At the same moment, Ian, who had been stepping backward, caught his heel on a protruding floorboard and tilted. Their combined momentum sent them both tumbling down.
“Ouch…”
Helena let out a soft groan as she weakly sat up. Instead of the hard floor, something soft pressed beneath her palms. Opening her furrowed eyes, she felt Ian wrapping an arm around her waist.
“Now where do you think you’re going? If you tackle someone, you have to take responsibility.”
Tackle? Who tackled whom?
Only then did Helena realize her position—and just how shameless it was.
She wasn’t lying on the floor but right on top of Ian. By his words, it really wasn’t an exaggeration to say she’d tackled him.
Ian chattered away with an innocent expression, as if he’d never teased her at all.
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.
