Saved Him, Now I'm Obsessed (10 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 170
I approached Lady Perel, who was drinking cognac straight from the bottle.
It wasn’t strange for her to consume such strong liquor; after all, the Chelberin family was famously known for their extraordinary alcohol tolerance. Even if she gulped down high-proof spirits like water, she wouldn’t get drunk.
Still, I was concerned by her reluctance to meet my eyes. She avoided looking at me so deliberately that I even wondered, “Did I do something wrong to her?”
Her behavior closely resembled how Ileina and Shuri had been treating me lately.
I could understand them—they believed it was their fault that I had once been engaged to Lord Eloyd—but what on earth could Lady Perel possibly feel guilty about toward me?
“What’s wrong? Why are you drinking like this, looking so dejected?”
“Well…”
She hesitated, and I urged her to just speak up.
“I’m sorry.”
Taken aback by her sudden apology, I asked in confusion, “Sorry for what?” Then she mentioned Viscountess Monica.
She said she’d agonized greatly before even coming here. She’d decided that apologizing was better than pretending ignorance, yet now that she stood before me, the words wouldn’t come easily.
Ah, Viscountess Monica—I understood immediately.
A prominent figure in high society, she wielded considerable influence as a source of gossip. Her talent for embellishing any story into something fascinating always drew people’s interest.
Even when her rumors were rooted in truth, she blended in significant fiction—either to suit her own tastes or to stir public curiosity.
Sometimes, she’d concoct entirely new tales by mixing only 10% truth with 90% fabrication.

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.”
