The Price is Everything of Yours (76 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 196
An indeterminate late morning had arrived once again.
Neris calmly assessed that her waking time was now gradually approaching what it had been before her marriage. Yes, no matter how strange it felt at first, she’d surely get used to it… even if falling asleep required practically begging for it… After all, Cledwin—who moved several times more than she did—still managed to rise early every dawn.
Yet she wasn’t fully accustomed to it just yet—the feeling of lazily opening her eyes not to the crisp chill of morning air, but nestled warmly against another’s body heat.
During sleep, she must have instinctively pulled him close, for above the firm waist she clutched lay his broad, bare chest. The slightly sun-kissed contours of his muscles shimmered softly like satin.
“You awake?”
The moment Cledwin noticed his wife’s eyes flutter open, he pressed three quick kisses to her forehead and asked. She found herself unconsciously smiling—then immediately schooled her expression upon realizing it.
It embarrassed her to appear so openly pleased when he seemed so effortlessly at ease.
Though at night… well, even he occasionally lost that composure…
The thought made her even more flustered. Neris mumbled her reply.
“I’m awake.”
“Go back to sleep. You woke earlier than yesterday.”
He, too, seemed aware that her waking hour was gradually normalizing. She slowly sat up.
“I need to get up. There’s much to do today…”
She knew all too well how many matters awaited resolution each day at the White Swan Estate. And how long had the Grand Duke already been absent from there?
Even though she only received the most critical reports through Yayan, her workload remained immense. Managing affairs at this estate in the capital alone was already quite complex.

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.”

I’m so tired of all these noblewomen fighting over the useless Crown Prince. He literally brings nothing to the table except his title, yet everyone still prefers him. I just hope his downfall comes soon
