Mother-in-Law Refuses to Regress! (7 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 139
But the Crown Princess cried out as if throwing a tantrum.
“No! If you’re just going to kill me anyway, then do it quickly! Don’t lock me up in this wretched place and humiliate me like this!”
Larisa’s eyes widened in surprise. After all, the room was far too ordinary to be called “a wretched place.” Her own bedroom in the townhouse wasn’t much different from this one.
Before Larisa could even voice her confusion, the Empress abruptly stood up and walked straight to her daughter without hesitation, slapping her across the cheek.
“It seems you only listen after getting hit.”
The Crown Princess began trembling violently, her expression filled with outrage and injustice over nothing more than a single slap. Meanwhile, the Empress sat calmly and gracefully opposite Larisa once again and quietly said,
“My apologies.”
The Crown Princess pulled the blanket over her head and started sobbing. The Empress frowned slightly, seemingly embarrassed, but continued in a quiet tone.
“As I said, I truly never intended to harm you, Lady Larisa. The Crown Princess did give you poison, but she never truly believed it would kill you. Ordinary poisons take effect gradually, don’t they? The medicine you took wasn’t an instantly fatal toxin.”
“But you said there was no antidote?”
“…That’s true. But the Crown Princess didn’t know that. She…”
The Empress suddenly rose from her seat and slowly knelt down.
“She intended to blackmail you, Lady Larisa—using the antidote as leverage after poisoning you. She wanted you to kill Camilla. So she never truly meant to kill you; she simply didn’t know there was no antidote. Therefore… Lady Larisa…”
With a sorrowful expression, the Empress grasped Larisa’s foot.
“The fault is mine alone—you may kill me if you wish. But that child… she’s too foolish. Even if spared, she won’t cause any further harm.”
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.”
