Long Live the Emperor, Minus Me (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 40
And strangely enough, just that tiny action alone was enough to instantly calm the horse.
“Was it because of the shadow…?”
Berken, who had been so tense he looked ready to jump up from his seat at any moment, let the tension out of his body and muttered dejectedly. It wasn’t really directed at anyone—it was just a murmur to himself—but Liana smiled slightly and replied anyway.
“You’re very clever. You noticed the change right away and calmed down.”
Blanche was the one who interjected again before Liana could say more.
Seeing how quickly the horse had settled, Liana’s smile deepened further.
“Isn’t it? Though its temperament is a bit sensitive, I don’t think His Majesty will mind at all. It’s intelligent, sturdy—truly the finest horse.”
Liana glanced once at the now-calm horse and then at the hem of her dress, her expression turning regretful.
“That’s true. I’d love to ride it once, but it’s probably difficult right now.”
“You may ride it anytime after the banquet ends. Once again, congratulations on your birthday. I’d be glad if I’ve brought you joy, Your Majesty.”
For a brief moment, Blanche’s tone became unusually archaic, but everyone was too startled by the scene before them to notice the subtle shift—except one person. Melchizedek, standing beside Blanche with his arm offered, seemed to catch the change; he simply looked away from the horse and fixed his gaze on Blanche.
“You speak of overflowing joy.”
Unconsciously influenced, Liana’s own speech had also become slightly more formal than usual—closer to the Empress Dowager’s manner of speaking than her own.
With that tone, Liana asked Blanche,
“Then I shall ask you: is there anything you desire? I shall grant you a reward.”
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
