Love Me Just Once (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 73
Sianna couldn’t hide her anxiety at those words and bit down on her lips. Even though Ophelia clearly saw the blood welling on those pale lips, she asked as if she knew nothing at all.
“Is there any reason you don’t want to go home?”
Her voice was deliberately gentle enough to make the other hesitate.
“I… I…”
And Sianna lowered her head before she could finish her sentence.
Ophelia didn’t give her time to deliberate long between her fear of her father and this new possibility.
“If you’ve nothing to say, then go home now.”
And Ophelia saw Sianna clasp her hands together—hands that were surely cold and damp. Her bony fingers were clenched so tightly that the knuckles stood out.
Soon, Sianna began stuttering even more severely than before.
“You… you saw it yourself. If I… if I go home, I… I get beaten…”
Though her words were pitiful, Ophelia looked at the pleading woman with unwavering eyes. She needed to make it absolutely clear that passively begging would gain her nothing.
It was then that Sianna staggered toward her and dropped to her knees.
It was a knee bent so easily it was hard to believe she was the daughter of a noble house—proof enough of how desperate she was, heedless even of her own dignity.
Then, with her head bowed, Sianna pleaded.
“P-please… I’m begging you… d-don’t send me back.”
The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
Love at first sight without realizing it, gradually falling in love, slowly getting closer…
Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!
