Saved Him, Now I'm Obsessed (10 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 148
In truth, even when Eloyd endlessly praised Greina, I wasn’t particularly interested.
Rather, it was Ileina and Shuri who had found his words impolite. As for me, I didn’t feel upset at all that my fiancé, whom I’d just met, was praising another woman.
But Ian looked deeply offended. Still, he carefully composed his expression and said,
“A person who strives for their goals… I thought no one worked as hard as I did. Perhaps I’ve grown too arrogant. I should put in even more effort.”
I wondered if he was actually agreeing with me for once, but then it struck me—maybe I’d gone too far in praising someone else, making it seem as though I were telling Ian he wasn’t trying enough. After all, he’d been diligently attending imperial studies and working hard managing state affairs on behalf of the Emperor.
“No, I wasn’t telling you to work harder. You’re already trying plenty—that’s perfectly fine. Besides, you’re meeting Princess Greina today for work, aren’t you?”
At my words, Ian’s expression brightened.
“It’s a very important matter.”
For a moment, my heart sank.
It wasn’t just that he called meeting Princess Greina an “important matter”—it was the smile he wore while thinking about that important matter that made me inexplicably uneasy.
“Lord Eloyd also praised her highly, saying most people at the academy admire her.”
She was clearly someone with extraordinary charm. Ian must think so too.
Though I’d never met Princess Greina myself, the stories I’d heard from others painted her as an exceptionally captivating person—on top of that, she was a princess by status.
I’d heard she was politically ambitious; if that was true, surely marrying Ian to become Empress Consort of the Carlobanian Empire would be a far better move for her than feuding with her brother, the Crown Prince, over the small Pledinus Kingdom.
Of course, even if she wanted it, marrying Ian wasn’t something she could decide alone—and above all, Ian’s own feelings mattered most. I knew that.

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.

Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!
