Sister, I'm the Queen This Life (330 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 219
After the riverside picnic with Raphael de Valdesar, Ariadne remained bedridden for about two more days before finally rising from her sickbed.
The situation in the Kingdom of Etruria was steadily improving. First, grim news arrived from the Kingdom of Galico: Princess Auguste had died of the Black Plague.
“They say Philippe IV has abandoned all state affairs and is secluding himself, wailing like a beast.”
The outside updates were compiled and reported by Representative Caruso of the Bocanegro Trading Company, who had recently been granted renewed audience privileges. Thanks to this, Petruccia, now with nothing to do, sat sulkily nearby, pouting her lips.
“It’s rare for grown siblings to be so close—it’s truly remarkable affection.”
Ariadne, who had known this fact since her previous life, could only offer a wry smile. After all, it wasn’t something one said in front of a child.
“As a result, all provocations along the border have ceased.”
“That’s good.”
The situation in San Carlo was also favorable.
Thanks to the efforts of the Lambouyé Orphanage nursing corps, the number of plague patients in the capital remained within controllable limits. Considering that several provincial towns had been reduced to ruins—with their lords even abandoning their castles to flee—and bearing in mind that Galico’s territory and administrative capacity were nearing total collapse, this was a remarkable achievement.
Ariadne’s personal circumstances weren’t bad either.
“Grain prices are skyrocketing like mad. Tenfold? They’ve already surged nearly thirtyfold.”
Unlike in her previous life, when the great epidemic had halted at Etruria’s northernmost border, this time the Black Plague had surged unimpeded across the Prinoiak Mountains.
Now, it wasn’t only the Kingdom of Etruria whose harvest had been ruined—crops across the entire central continent had failed.
“They’ll keep rising until next spring.”
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.]
