How To Choose A Knight (28 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 44
“You… look better with your hair neatly swept to this side.”
Ascela gently inserted a pearl pin into Jade’s hair, her voice soft and measured.
“If you’ve come to find someone worthy of a suitor… there’ll be a man with hair close to blond and fair skin. He usually wears deep navy, though I’m not sure what he’ll be wearing today. His cravat is always gray.”
“Who’s that?”
“He’s Henk Meling, the second son of the Meling family. Though not the eldest, I’ve heard he’ll inherit a great deal of wealth. I don’t know about his abilities, but he’s certainly a reputable knight worthy of standing by your side. He seems thoughtful and a good listener—so you should have a pleasant conversation.”
Ascela calmly flicked her eyes aside.
“Go ahead. I absolutely won’t tell Father about this.”
You can trust me this time.
With a whisper so faint it was almost inaudible, Ascela retreated once more into the shade and quietly closed her lips, clearly intent on cutting off the ease that had just moments ago flowed between them.
Jade, glancing once at Ascela’s delicate profile, turned and walked away along the corridor again.
Though she stood once more at the heart of the ballroom, Jade quickly grew weary. She’d returned half-hoping Ascela’s words might be true, yet her motivation remained utterly depleted. She might as well have stayed home pressing her forehead to her desk, insisting this was merely homesickness.
Whether it was Henk Meling or anyone else, finding him here was impossible. There were so many people, and everyone’s clothes were dazzlingly ornate—how was she supposed to tell them apart? Every back of the head looked the same.
That man standing by the windowsill seemed blond, and the one walking over there had hair close to blond, too, a light brown shade.
And why would she even seek out Henk Meling? She’d come here to find someone to compare with Axel.
Just as she turned to leave the ballroom, a man approaching her quickened his pace.

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
