In This Life, I'll Assist You (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 146
It was fortunate that it was none other than the Captain of the Royal Guard. He seemed to be patrolling the palace grounds alone on horseback.
He asked with a puzzled expression.
“What’s the matter? This place is rather secluded, even within the Imperial Palace. And you look precisely like someone deserving suspicion.”
His tone carried a hint of playful provocation.
He dismounted and walked toward me, holding several flyers bearing someone’s portrait in his hand.
“What are those?”
“Oh, the Red Worm from the image Lady Estelle showed us. His Majesty has ordered a warrant for this individual.”
“Excellent.”
“Might as well promote it diligently. This scoundrel, after all.”
He glanced briefly at the Red Worm’s face on the wanted poster.
“Did you really come all the way out here just to put up these flyers?”
“Hm. I’m not sure why Lady Estelle keeps questioning me like this.”
His gaze sharpened.
“My instincts are sharp, you see. I just felt drawn here—and lo and behold, I ran into you.”
Watching him smirk, I quietly smiled too.
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
Me too, my dear! I hate that disgusting old man too.
Oh, I’m going to be serious! I have a weakness for dark-haired, hairy characters; the Conan the Barbarian aesthetic appeals to me…
Oh my god… Oh my god, how infuriating!! How could he ever have been considered wise?? The old man lacks basic common sense.
