Regret With All Your Might (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 25
“Your Grace. I have something to say to you briefly.”
It was after dinner, as the Duke and Olivia were drinking tea in the drawing room, when a gray-haired knight approached with a stern expression and spoke.
Baron Howard Interfield.
She had seen him in the nobles’ registry, but this was the first time meeting him in person so closely.
She had caught a fleeting glimpse of him at the last banquet, but Olivia didn’t know much about Baron Interfield.
Only that he was a retainer of the ducal house, that he had inherited his barony a few years ago, and that, like the Duke himself, he had been a key figure in winning the recent war.
His sharply handsome face bowed toward Olivia, and she returned the gesture with a silent nod.
She expected him to leave immediately, but instead the Duke looked at Olivia with an apologetic, troubled expression.
“I’m sorry. Would it be alright if I stepped out for just a moment?”
“Hm? Of course. Please go ahead.”
Olivia answered as if it were only natural. Even when she had been a princess, tasks would pile up before her meals were finished—especially when she had to carry out both the Crown Princess’s duties and the Imperial Princess’s orders simultaneously.
So she could roughly imagine just how busy someone of the Duke’s standing must be.
Yet despite Olivia’s consideration, the Duke wore a strange look. Olivia tilted her head in confusion.
“You seem busy—shouldn’t you go quickly?”
“…Yes. I am busy. Haha.”

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: “…”
