Love Me Just Once (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 125
After pulling out Reden’s officials, Daheel entered, having briefly left his post.
Ever since she could no longer trust Salode, Ophelia had begun keeping Daheel close to her side. Daheel was indispensable to her—she could not allow anyone else to lay a hand on him.
Though these days she managed to stay lucid, Ophelia worried she might revert to her former self at any moment—unable to recall even basic necessities, responding to others’ words however she pleased, utterly unaware and unconcerned about where her reputation was headed.
That might have been acceptable in the past, but it was no longer an option now. Ophelia even reflected on the very actions she had taken due to the royal family’s reputation.
Hadn’t she beheaded Staret?
And then gone so far as to deny her own words.
The problem wasn’t the lie itself. Ophelia had never been particularly moral, so deceiving others did not trouble her in the least. She simply had people she didn’t wish to disappoint—and people she didn’t want to deceive.
This matter was no different.
Staret had been someone she never wanted to kill.
Though the world called him the most wicked man alive, he had always shown kindness toward her. Having grown up beaten by blood relatives, Ophelia knew well that kindness from others was never freely given.
She hadn’t formed any special emotional bond with him. Yet, now that she’d severed ties even with Netepel, Staret had been virtually her only remaining friend-like presence.
She couldn’t forget their final conversation while he was still in his right mind. Back then, she had spoken as if she understood everything about him—only to let him die afterward.
Since Staret would surely have lived had he never become entangled with her, Ophelia knew his death was entirely her fault.
And death could never be undone. What had happened to her and Idren was an exceptional case; for ordinary people, death was final.
Clearly, there had been a time when she hadn’t even feared her own death—but Staret’s passing felt different. Whenever she recalled the sight of his familiar head falling lifelessly, her chest tightened several times a day and her hands grew cold. It was a sensation eerily akin to fear.

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
