How To Choose A Knight (28 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 21
The old man, who had been laughing for a long while, began wringing out the cloth—now almost free of its stains—to squeeze out the moisture.
“Ah, Jade. Finding you was truly my good fortune. Life in this forest is peaceful enough, but not particularly exciting. Lately, though, it’s been absolutely delightful!”
“Um… I’m glad I’ve been of help.”
“Yes, yes. But you’re still getting scolded.”
With that, Oli lightly slapped Jade’s forehead with her wrinkled hand.
Though the force was extremely gentle, Jade was startled—both by the crisp sound and because she’d never been tapped on the forehead before in her life.
While Jade stammered in confusion, Oli spoke sternly.
“Young lady mage, if you’d been just a bit younger, I’d have spanked your backside.”
“Why—why would you?”
Oli smiled faintly and stared into Jade’s wide, indignant violet eyes.
“What am I to do when you so easily throw yourself into danger? You should be putting things off as much as possible, not rushing in headlong.”
“But there wasn’t any other way…”
“Even so, it’s something you only consider after exhausting every other option.”
Compared to the old woman, the mage was still very young, and her bewildered expression confirmed Oli’s suspicion that this girl had never had anyone truly look out for her.
“You don’t seem to value yourself very much, do you?”
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
