Even if Your Regret Holds Me Back (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 20
“…You honestly don’t even know what a joke is, do you?”
Helena scowled as she pressed him, but Ian strolled off again at ease, looking utterly unaffected after spouting such an awkward joke.
Then again, perhaps one needed that level of shamelessness to say things so utterly absurd. Helena tightened her grip on her bag strap and followed behind him.
“So, where are you headed?”
“Just walking.”
“No destination in mind?”
“Walking solely to get somewhere is no fun at all, is it?”
“You really do come up with the strangest things.”
Helena frowned once more, but Ian paid no mind. He pulled along the nearly resigned Helena until they reached a bench overlooking the sea.
He tied her arm to the bench armrest with an intricate knot and briefly stepped away—a precaution to stop Helena from leaping into the sea again.
A few minutes later, he returned holding two steaming cups of coffee.
Helena awkwardly took the cup he offered. Ian didn’t miss even that fleeting expression.
“Do you perhaps dislike coffee? I could get you something else.”
“No, it’s not that… it’s just… been so long since I’ve had any.”
Helena wasn’t even sure if she liked coffee or not—it simply didn’t exist in Evergale.

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.”
