Even if Your Regret Holds Me Back (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 30
“How did you find out and come here? Damn it….”
He looked down at the woman he’d practically tucked into his chest.
Helena, nearly pinned against him, didn’t seem flustered—instead, she met his gaze calmly, as if déjà vu had dulled any surprise.
“Looks like another group of scoundrels passed by, huh?”
“…….”
His mouth, which usually fired off answers without pause, stayed tightly shut for once. Helena glanced at him curiously, but Ian’s attention was entirely fixed beyond the window.
Meanwhile, Eugene was pacing impatiently right outside the salon where Helena stood.
Ian pressed himself even farther into the corner. At the very least, he needed to hold this position until Eugene passed by.

Ian exhaled softly, his arm braced against the wall beside Helena. She blinked, recognizing the familiar pressure.
Through the slightly parted collar of his shirt, she saw his chest rising and falling. She wanted nothing more than to turn her head away out of awkwardness, but his body held hers so firmly she couldn’t move.

The heat rising from his firm skin.
Water droplets tracing the curves of his muscles.

Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
