Long Live the Emperor, Minus Me (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 117
Having withdrawn from the office, I returned to my room, pressing my cheek.
Though my slapped cheek burned, it was actually a cheap price to pay for just one strike.
After all, I’d managed to extract from the king a promise to defer matters until I graduated from the academy.
As I opened the door with these thoughts in mind, I found an unexpected guest inside.
“Blanche! I thought we hadn’t talked enough earlier, so I came to speak with you—Good heavens, what happened to your face?!”
It was the Sixth Princess herself, who had just been the subject of my conversation moments before.
Though we were the same age, because I’d been adopted, Langrisha de Vandaluin was officially my elder sister on paper.
Once again, it struck me how boldly my parents had sent a child the same age as their youngest daughter to the empire—even if I’d lost them under the most fortuitous circumstances.
A three-year-old hostage! It had caused quite a stir even within the empire.
In any case, this injury was a welcome opportunity for me, who had just been wondering how best to exploit it.
I lowered my eyes as if flustered and pressed my cheek again.
“Oh, this is….”
“How dare anyone lay hands on a princess of this kingdom?”
The child was truly naive. After all, as she herself pointed out, how many people in this kingdom could possibly dare touch a princess like me?
Especially considering I’d been summoned by the king right after dinner.

Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!

The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.

Do you dare?
Su Heng assists a divine lord in his cultivation, aiming to make him experience all the sufferings of love, so that he can attain the Great Dao.
Only after being chased down from the heavens by the divine lord, confined and completely possessed by him, does she realize how successful she has been.
