“May I assist you?”
Assist with what…?
Leus didn’t wait for my answer and came closer. Soon, I felt something on my cheek.
It was Leus’s fingertips.
I was so shocked that I couldn’t even scream. I froze, my eyes wide open.
Leus knew exactly what he was doing, but he just silently removed the hair stuck to my cheek with a very careful touch.
It was such an unreal scene that for a moment, I thought I was still dreaming.
But the vivid sensation of his hand on my cheek made denial impossible.
‘What’s he doing?’
Though I didn’t show it, I was internally flustered. Suddenly, a warm sensation enveloped the area around the fire, and the pain in my swollen cheek disappeared completely.
‘Magic?’
Magic? But Leus is a knight, isn’t he?
In the novel I read and even in this life, Leus was always a knight and a hero of the empire, not a magician.
But what just happened seemed undoubtedly like magic. My swollen cheek felt completely healed.
‘Did Leus always know how to use magic?’
As I grappled with my confusion, Leus picked up the blanket, folded it once, twice, and then spoke.
“Shall I fix your attire as well?”
“What…?”
I dropped my gaze in disbelief.
‘What is happening here?’
The first thing I noticed was my completely wrinkled clothes. It was embarrassing enough that they were wrinkled, but they were also twisted and ill-fitting on my body.
And my hair was a mess, too. One of my shoes was rolling on the floor, not on my foot.
I hastily put on my shoe and tried to fix my disheveled hair. While doing so, I stealthily touched the corners of my mouth, wondering if I had drooled in my sleep. In the meantime, Leus had already stepped out of the carriage.
As I hurried to follow, Leus stood in front of the carriage, looking at me.
“You can take your time and come down when the fever subsides.”
“…….”
Leus lightly tapped my cheek once.
I tried my best to appear calm, but apparently, my face had turned as red as a beet.
Left alone in the carriage, I banged my head against the wall in frustration, unjustly resenting the innocent Leus.
As soon as I stepped out of the carriage, I saw Shanette talking with Leus. I approached to greet her.
But something about Shanette’s expression was odd.
“Lady Ibel?”
Yes, that was exactly the look. ‘What brings you here without any contact?’
I couldn’t read anything else from her expression, so I greeted her with a similar look.
“It’s been a long time, Lady….”
“I’m so glad to see you. How long has it been? But what brings you here… or rather, did you come here with him?”
…What?
‘I thought Leus came to fetch me on Shanette’s request…’
I replayed the conversation with Leus in my mind.
He had suddenly appeared and asked why I hadn’t inquired about his visit, then immediately handed me Shanette’s invitation. He also somewhat abruptly told me to get ready to leave.
‘That was it, right?’
Meanwhile, Leus had come to stand beside me. I looked up at him, hoping for an answer, but Leus ignored my gaze and calmly spoke to Shanette.
“She’s my guest. Yes, we came together.”
Quite shamelessly, he said.
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.”
