I Ended Up Living Next Door to My Ex-Husband (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 45
The servants of the House of Light were busy all afternoon preparing to receive the Grand Duchess.
Yet, their eyes kept darting repeatedly toward one spot.
It was their master, Cedric, standing quietly at one side of the reception room, watching over everything as if on guard.
Finally, only after the last dish prepared for tonight’s banquet was placed upon the table did Cedric issue his command to the servants, as though he had been waiting for this moment.
“Everyone, leave.”
“Yes…”
“Oh, and ensure no one comes near while I’m having dinner with the Grand Duchess.”
Though this caution had already been repeated several times, the servants merely bowed politely and exited the reception room.
Now alone at last, Cedric could no longer conceal his nervousness.
He paced restlessly around the table, inspecting again and again whether anything was missing.
Exquisitely decorated lavish dishes, the finest wine, and candles lit throughout the room.
Everything was perfectly prepared, and the atmosphere was utterly romantic.
‘Perfect.’
Cedric concluded this to himself.
Yet, not long after, he meticulously scanned the reception room once more.

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.”
