Even if Your Regret Holds Me Back (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 55
“It wasn’t supposed to be just Sakin coming along.”
Helena was now feeling regret deep in her bones—the lesson that she should have brought Ian, that fine human leash, with her.
“I didn’t expect him to vanish the moment I looked away….”
Having already circled the same block three times, Helena finally gave up on finding Sakin.
Though he was hopelessly, even horrifyingly directionally challenged, he wasn’t a fool—he’d surely turn up again at the guild.

Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
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.
