The Beloved Youngest Daughter of the Lord Family - Chapter 23
Crunch.
I popped the cookie I’d been holding into my mouth and scanned the direction of the shrubbery.
No one revealed themselves, yet it was clearly not the sound of a small animal that might be in the garden or the rustling of the wind.
‘I definitely sensed someone.’
Ever since I’d gained the ability to use magic, I’d discovered I possessed considerable talent for detecting enchanted objects or sensing people’s presence.
I’d first realized this ability when I’d noticed an assassin sneaking in.
After that, Sione had systematically trained my magic-sensing skills to prepare for any unforeseen incident, and as a result, I’d developed exceptional perception.
In truth, it wasn’t a power I often needed outside of emergencies—but I’d found a rather unexpected use for it.
Sione had secretly hidden snacks all over the Rose Palace, just in case I suddenly collapsed from magical exhaustion, and my detection ability proved useful for locating them.
I got to train my skill and sneak an extra handful of treats—perfect from my perspective.
Because I’d constantly honed this ability even during ordinary times, I’d now reached the point where I could sense even faint magical fluctuations.
I could even tell that the person hiding nearby had absolutely no intention of harming me.
“I know you’re hiding. Just come out already.”
The moment I said this casually and popped another cookie from the plate into my mouth,
a human-shaped shadow abruptly leaped out from the thick bushes.
The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. 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.
Love at first sight without realizing it, gradually falling in love, slowly getting closer…
Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!
