How To Choose A Knight (28 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 45
Even the cupboard still held magic potions that couldn’t be brought to throw away, and strange research notes remained pinned to the walls. There wasn’t a single gap.
If only I’d had the chance to say a proper goodbye—to tidy things up—would it have been better? Was this lingering regret simply because it hadn’t been properly concluded? Because my curiosity hadn’t been fully satisfied before it ended.
Perhaps it wasn’t really that important after all.
No—maybe it truly was nothing. Like mother, like son; if I’d truly held feelings for you, I wouldn’t be standing here quietly like this. Where else would that obsession, passed down through blood, possibly go?
Yet my throat remained parched.
Ignoring the tea, I reached for the water I’d drawn earlier from the spring. Even after drinking deeply enough to make my Adam’s apple bob, my thirst didn’t ease.
Just then, someone pounded harshly on the door.
It wasn’t worth even checking. At this hour, it could only be Pavel’s daughter, Nina.
The girl refused to believe Jade had truly left, convinced it was all just some adult prank. So she came by twice a day, hoping to catch Jade secretly hiding somewhere, watching for the slightest opening.
Axel was thoroughly irritated.
Jade—seriously, stop teasing the poor kid already.
Wiping his mouth with the back of his hand, Axel flung the door open with obvious annoyance.
“She’s not here.”
“…….”
But the face he met was utterly unexpected.
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.”

Goodness at this point she’d ball her eyes in relief of seeing Axel
Axel is already secretly devoted to her. He doesn’t want to label his feelings that might inconvenience her. She on the other hand clearly understood her feelings and drew a line. Yet can’t keep those feelings in check
