I Beg Your Forgiveness (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 20
While he was lost in thought, Marien’s brow furrowed deeper and deeper. The more she mulled over his words, the more displeased she seemed.
Christoph narrowed his eyes into slits and clicked his tongue softly as he glared at Maxim’s back in the distance.
Maxim, turning his head, locked eyes with Marien just as he was glaring at her—then immediately met Christoph’s gaze. Startled, his shoulders stiffened, and he swiftly turned his head away.
“You’re bothering her because you’re interested in her, aren’t you?”
“Pardon?”
Marien stared at him with an incredulous look, as if asking what bizarre theory that was supposed to be. Christoph, however, looked utterly self-assured.
“Don’t you remember, Michael Hindenburg?”
“Oh.”
An ambiguous sigh escaped her lips. With that long-unheard name, Michael Hindenburg, the face of a mischievous man surfaced in her mind.
Back when she’d enrolled in law school, he’d tormented her relentlessly, solely because she was a woman—treating her like a thorn in his eye. He’d also been as fickle as summer weather.
Some days, he’d flare up just from meeting her eyes; other days, he’d be as cold as a biting winter wind. He’d suddenly appear to thrust useless gifts upon her, stare at her with an uncomfortably persistent gaze, yet also readily give up his seat in the fiercely competitive library.
In short, he’d been utterly unpredictable.
“You’ve always been popular with strange men, haven’t you?”
At those words, Marien found herself staring at Christoph without even realizing it.

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.”
