Sister, I'm the Queen This Life (330 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 139
“You know that too, don’t you? Even if everything unfolds exactly as you’ve said, the chance that you—declared the pure white sacrifice—could escape completely unscathed is exceedingly slim.”
Ariadne was flustered. Queen Marguerite’s willingness to help her, utterly disregarding all political advantage or risk, lay entirely outside Ariadne’s calculations.
“Ha… Your Majesty, I truly see no other way out.”
The Queen merely gazed steadily at everyone with her slate-gray eyes. Madame Carla, growing impatient, quickly added her voice.
“Your Majesty! Prince Alfonso, at the very least, must be absolutely shielded from scandal!”
Madame Carla had watched over Alfonso since childhood. Though not her own child, he was her lord’s only son—and the future king who would guarantee her lord’s legacy. He could not afford even the slightest blemish.
Elco, Alfonso’s knight, felt exactly the same. Sir Elco, who had knelt quietly and listened until now, stepped forward before Queen Marguerite.
“Your Majesty, Your Highness. Please use me. I will take full blame and leave.”
“Elco!”
Prince Alfonso’s flustered voice reverberated through the “Queen’s Reception Room.” The prince tried to stop his knight.
“It was my doing. I’ll take responsibility. I’ve never done a single thing beneath the heavens that I’m ashamed of.”
But it was Queen Marguerite’s sharp question that truly halted her son.
“To prove you have nothing to be ashamed of, you’d have no choice but to reveal Lady de Mare’s story. Do you have a plan for that?”
Alfonso clenched his fists, unable to continue. After a long silence, carefully choosing his words, he finally spat them out as if chewing.
“But… a sovereign must, by nature, protect those under their care. I cannot possibly shift my own fault onto my retainer.”

Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…

One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
