Even if Your Regret Holds Me Back (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 145
Eric tried to stop her again, but Matilda was resolute.
“Ugh, how frustrating! At this rate, how much do you think we can even carry before dawn?”
She shoved Eric aside and pulled the cart herself. Viscount Owen, seemingly finding the current load insufficient for the carriage, helped push from behind.
Eric sighed heavily and followed the two of them.
Indeed, the place they entered held a massive wall of gold. Fist-sized nuggets rolled about at its base.
The Owen family gasped in awe and busied themselves feverishly. Oblivious to the passage of time, they hauled gold until the cart was completely full.
Meanwhile, the lamp oil had run dry. At Eric’s urging, Matilda reluctantly turned away. The three hurriedly dragged the cart in haste.
Despite the harsh winter cold, sweat poured from them like rain. But the lamp flickered weakly and finally went out midway.
Darkness fell so thick that they couldn’t see a hand’s breadth ahead. Utterly unable to discern the path, Eric exploded in frustration.
“What is this? I told you from the start not to go in so deep!”
“Shut up! If we hadn’t gone that far, we wouldn’t have filled the cart! Stop complaining and find something to start a fire!”
In the pitch-black dark, voices clashed sharply. The three groped desperately along the floor and walls but found nothing useful. Eric tripped over a rock and fell hard, spraining his ankle.
Matilda roughly shook Viscount Owen, demanding if he didn’t even have the flask she always carried like her life. Around that moment, a faint glimmer of light twinkled in the distance.
“What… what’s that?”
“Shh.”
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”

One-sentence summary: What goes around comes around, taking turns in the crematorium
At least Eugene realizes what he really is, but he doesn’t realize the truth about Ian.
For Helena, those were some of the most beautiful moments.
An elephant! What is this analogy! At least a monster is a better analogy.
