Sister, I'm the Queen This Life (330 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 169
Ariadne de Mare did not trust people—not others, and not even herself.
Humans were inherently weak, selfish creatures who spoke of loyalty and kindness only when it benefited them. This was a lesson she had learned through countless experiences in her past life.
It wasn’t that individuals like unicorns didn’t exist—but unicorns were rare precisely because they were unicorns. Caruso Vitelli of the Bocanegro Trading Company, whom she knew, was wise, quick in judgment, and uncannily sharp at sniffing out money—but beyond that, he was simply an ordinary human being.
“Representative Caruso, do you usually bring your page to meetings?”
Surprised by the unexpected question, Representative Caruso turned toward the office doorway. There stood the very page who had first escorted Ariadne, wide-eyed and frozen in place—clearly startled, likely because he feared trouble had just landed on him.
“He looks clever. I need someone who can count money. Would you lend him to me for now?”
No outsider was ever entrusted with handling finances—especially not when it involved ducato gold coins. This was merely an excuse.
“…Huh? This child?”
“Is there a problem?”
Representative Caruso’s pupils wavered. The page simply blinked in silence.
“You surely don’t think I’d do anything dishonest, do you?”
Ariadne raised her voice.
“He’ll be under the wing of His Eminence Cardinal de Mare. I’ll teach him everything I can, and I’ll return him to you in perfect condition.”
Representative Caruso exchanged a look with the page.
Giuseppe, standing behind her, tilted his head slightly, then lowered it in acknowledgment. Ariadne was the kind of master one would struggle to find again even across all of San Carlo—but she rarely considered her subordinates’ opinions to this extent. What was going on? How did this page enjoy such an exceptional work environment?
Top Celebrity Younger Brother Bears Her Child (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: Forced to live stream romance with a top celebrity in a female-dominant world.
Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
