The Duke's Flower is Precarious (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 95
The tip of the derringer’s blade touched her thigh, and a sharp, stinging pain spread through her, jolting her hazy consciousness awake. A soft moan escaped between Aidel’s lips.
“Haa….”
She had clung to the desperate determination not to lose consciousness, but Aidel could no longer bear the weight of her body and finally collapsed onto the floor.
‘I must pull myself together….’
Fortunately, it seemed the sleeping incense had stopped burning; the smoke that had blurred her vision settled, and her eyesight gradually sharpened. Just as she barely managed to grasp the fading edge of her awareness, which kept slipping further away—
“Is everything ready?”
“Yes. Both the Grand Duchess and the Third Prince appear to have lost consciousness.”
Voices from outside reached her ears, and the firmly shut entrance door opened. Footsteps approached, resonating against the floor and echoing into her ears.
“Indeed, the sleeping incense imported from the East truly works well.”
Among several men, the one who appeared to be their leader smiled contentedly as he looked at the two collapsed figures lying helplessly on the ground.
“I’ll handle the rest. You go outside and keep watch.”
“Yes, understood.”
After sending all his subordinates out, the man walked toward the table first. He tapped lightly on Rainian’s face, who lay unconscious beside the table.
Rainian lay sprawled across the table, eyes closed, showing no reaction—as if dead. Noticing an overturned waterskin near his head, the man chuckled.
“Rainian, you always prided yourself on being clever, yet look at the mess you’re in—falling straight into such a trap.”

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.”

Can’t wait for second prince to die . How dare he touch grand Duchess with his filthy hand.
I hope Kareon kills first prince . But maybe that’s not going to happen because of diplomatic relations between kingdoms. If at that moment aidel would have remained unconscious ,second prince definitely would have died .It’s unfortunate , that bastard should have died on spot.
I am blushing even though I don’t know what withdrawal symptoms is.
