With half intention and half accident, Chloe found herself entering the Emperor’s bedroom.
The Emperor, who was supposed to intimidate her with his weaknesses, surprisingly wanted to talk. Realizing that she had never had a private conversation with the Emperor, Chloe gladly took a seat.
It was essential for the Emperor to be the last help in Chloe’s divorce, so building rapport in advance was a must.
Rapport with the Emperor was a necessity.
The two sat on a small terrace attached to the bedroom.
Kun prepared a notsostrong wine.
A soft night breeze that brushed her cheeks. The strong scent of grass coming in. A unique atmosphere was added to the light drinking party.
“Why was the Princess outside at this time?”
Kun asked a very primitive question. Chloe soon pointed to the envelope she had been holding all the while.
“I was going to send a letter.”
“A letter out of nowhere in the middle of the night. It must be quite important.”
The tone sounded like a reprimand towards Chloe, a reproach for recklessly wandering about just because of that one letter.
Chloe unhesitatingly affirmed.
“Yes. It was very important.”
“Is that so? Leave it to me, and I’ll have a servant send it in the morning.”
“……Your Majesty?”
The inevitably extended offer.
Chloe, who must invariably accept the Emperor’s kindness, hesitated this time.
Chloe wanted to send the letter as quickly as possible, and if she could ask for it, she intended to entrust it to anyone.
So it would be better to give it to the Emperor, who she was familiar with, rather than the palace servant whom she had never met.
Despite realizing this, Chloe hesitated. She couldn’t hand over the letter readily.
It wasn’t that she felt sorry for bothering the Emperor.
It was rather uncomfortable. Although she didn’t know what was uncomfortable, her intuition was warning her several times.
“It’s okay. I think it’s enough to ask a maid who will help me get ready in the morning.”
“Wasn’t it urgent? That’s why I thought you were wandering the streets at this time.”
She refused, laughing awkwardly.
Soon, the two’s glasses clinked. The clear sound of glass collision heralded the first toast.
Chloe cautiously sipped her drink. The sweet and slightly bitter liquid moisturized her dry throat.
“Is it a letter that I shouldn’t see?”
I thought he had changed the subject with the toast.
Kun insisted on the subject as if he wouldn’t let go of a tasty morsel.
The corner of her mouth raised snootily. The annoyingly teasing voice. Her appearance was playful but seemed weighty somewhere, making her shudder.
Thinking about it, Chloe’s hiding the letter must look quite strange to her counterpart. As if she was conveying the palace’s stories elsewhere.
“I never told other stories…….”
“Did you badmouth me?”
“……Yes?”
Though it seemed like she had made her counterpart suspect something else.
Kun’s absurd question relaxed her tense posture.
“……Not badmouthed, but I did talk behind your back.”
Then she corrected her words. Not pretending to be clean, she confessed honestly.
Pure and funny honesty.
“Talking behind my back.”
Kun repeated her words as if amused.
Her determination not to lie in front of the Emperor was genuinely pure.
“I’m disappointed. I thought well of the Princess.”
“……Ah.”
A face that didn’t look disappointed at all. Rather, the emphasis seemed to be concentrated at the end.
Chloe, who had sighed shortly, hurriedly gulped down her drink. Her chest sank for some reason.
She was conscious that what he wanted to say, the goodness, was not what she thought, but it became selfconscious for no reason.
“By the way, I’ve wanted to ask the Princess something all along.”
“Please feel free to ask.”
“How’s life these days?”
The eyes of the Emperor behind the mask changed suddenly. The playful mischievousness in his red eyes turned suddenly serious.
Callis wouldn’t have shamelessly told the Emperor about Chloe’s existence in the government. Chloe hid her situation, pretending not to know.
“It’s as usual.”
Then she took another sip of her drink. It was a bad habit that emerged whenever she felt uncomfortable.
Kun also followed her, drinking his glass in silence, stealthily observing her. She indeed had a shy expression as someone who would like to avoid this topic.
“I met a woman this evening.”
He decided to confess what he had experienced in the evening. If he were to express that he knew about Chloe’s situation first, the other party would also be less hesitant in confessing the truth.
“Her name was Helena, I think. She said she was being sponsored by your family.”
“……Ah.”
“It turns out she shares a room with the Duke.”
He looked at Chloe as if it were nothing.
She hid her gaze with halflowered eyelashes. Her bowed head was trembling slightly as well.
“That woman seems to hate the princess very much. But then again, which noble doesn’t.”
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
