I Think My Daughter Has Regressed (7 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 25
The Duke’s mansion was their target…?
Charles frowned. Although the Duke’s Daughter’s speculation sounded quite plausible, much of it didn’t make sense to him.
Carrying out such an operation to ambush an empty Duke’s mansion meant there had to be something essential to steal inside.
Of course, the Duke’s mansion would hold many rare and precious items.
From all sorts of expensive belongings to heirloom jewels passed down through generations… they must be extraordinary.
But they wouldn’t go to such great lengths merely to steal something valuable.
“…So it really is true—you’re no ordinary opponent.”
The first hooded figure who had stepped outside finally spoke up, looking down at Lucy. Apparently, he seemed inclined to halt his attack due to the Duke’s Daughter’s words.
Then now was the chance! They needed to find an escape route quickly…!
Charles pressed firmly on the wound in his side and scanned his surroundings.
If the Duke’s mansion truly was their target, then the Duke’s Daughter and Charles himself weren’t their primary objectives.
Yet that didn’t necessarily mean they wouldn’t kill them—there were more than enough assailants present to finish them off.
Thanks to the Duke’s Daughter’s talk, they’d bought some time, but there was no telling when the Duke would arrive—and he likely wouldn’t have time to arm himself either.
Just a single graze from the enemies’ blades would leave Charles, at best, with a light injury; at worst, a severe one.
Thus, they had to seize the opening while the Duke’s Daughter stalled for time and retreat before the Duke arrived.
Cold Male Lead Became My Clingy Husband (Female-Dominant)
Feng Bai Su transmigrated into a matriarchal novel, becoming the sister of the female protagonist and the Seventh Princess of the Feng Ling Kingdom.
After working herself to death in her previous life, finally reincarnating as a princess, she only wanted to be a lazy fish who could eat, sleep, and play.
Until she met the male protagonist from the book, Wei Jing Mo, and he took a liking to her!
Wei Jing Mo is the top young man in Feng Ling City, talented in both appearance and ability, from a prestigious family, with a cold and otherworldly appearance, a figure like the bright moon in the hearts of noble ladies. It was thought that only the most powerful and talented noble lady in Feng Ling City would be worthy of such a brilliant young man. Who knew that this young gentleman would secretly admire the infamous Seventh Princess?
Short scene 1:
Feng Bai Su looked at the young man crying like a pear blossom in the rain before her, and couldn’t help but doubt her life.
Wasn’t the male lead described as a cold and otherworldly figure in the book?
Then who was this poor little thing crying with swollen red eyes and tear-stained face?
Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
A talented fox spirit female lead with a flirtatious appearance but actually abstinent VS A cold-looking but actually naive and clingy little jealous male lead

When someone feels cornered, they do desperate and unimaginable things. What will Bruno plot to avoid being blamed?
Why does Bruno assume Ariel is easy to manipulate in a state of emergency? He judges others so easily based on appearance, status, and gender 🤣 Although it’s actually good for Ariel, as it allows him to gather more information
Uncle Bruno thought he had his older brother under control, but he needs to understand that times have changed. I suspect that Damian, before becoming a duke, let himself be manipulated because he was bored.

I see that they always keep Ariel in the dark, not knowing anything. I think Lucy would be the same if she weren’t a regressor. I wonder if that relationship will continue despite all the lies they tell Ariel.
