Saved Him, Now I'm Obsessed (10 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 73
Today, Ian came to pick me up and brought Siem Leaph’s “Aquatic Botany,” which he had mentioned before. He said he’d wanted to bring it earlier, but since all his attention had been focused on treating Seina, he thought I wouldn’t be able to concentrate even if I tried reading it, so he waited for the right moment.
“You did well. But honestly, how is it possible that I have absolutely no memory of this book at all?”
Ian boasted about his own memory, saying, “I remember every single detail—what expression Jane had, what clothes she was wearing.”
Though I considered my own memory nothing to be ashamed of anywhere, I felt oddly frustrated, as if I’d just lost to him.
I slowly flipped through the pages of “Aquatic Botany” Ian had given me.
“Well? Does anything seem familiar?”
“No, just looking at the cover won’t instantly jog my memory. Stop rushing me and give me a moment.”
“Alright.”
He sat beside me with a disappointed look on his face.
The illustrations in Siem Leaph’s book were truly exceptional—so vivid they felt as if they were right before my eyes. Without realizing, I found myself gently tracing my fingertips over the drawings.
If only Ian hadn’t been staring at me so intently from beside me, I would’ve buried my nose in the book and sniffed its scent.
Ian sat silently, his eyes fixed solely on me. His gaze was so direct that anyone watching might find it uncomfortable—but since I was used to it, I paid no mind and kept turning the pages.
The illustrations depicted every detail, from leaf veins down to the roots. They meticulously showed how green leaves gradually faded to yellow over time, how flowers fell and bore fruit, and even how only bare stems remained in winter.
The text itself was brief, yet the book was remarkably helpful for studying aquatic plants. Only after turning many pages did my memories slowly begin to return.
After Grandfather confirmed what illness Ian had and prescribed consistent medication, I took over delivering the medicine to the imperial capital in Grandfather’s place.

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect.

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.
