A loud voice echoed across the square. Jane and Merche turned in surprise to see Joseph, looking utterly cowed. Beside him, Wolfgang stood with his chin lifted, glaring fiercely at the men.

Sensing imminent trouble, Jane quickly rose to her feet. Merche did the same.

“Joseph!”

Jane stepped in front of Joseph.

“Are you the kid’s mother?”

Merche’s mouth fell open as she watched a man brazenly point his finger at Jane.

Jane instantly recognized him as a thug pretending to be nobility, trying to extort money.

It was the same kind of petty scam Victor and Hampton used to pull for extra coin.

They would loiter around Hauwsten Street, deliberately picking fights with young women or children to extract hush money.

“Yes. I am the child’s mother.”

“What about this outfit, huh? Do you even know how much it costs? This shirt was made by Hermes himself!”

The man yanked at his sleeve and shoved it right in front of Jane’s face. It bore the Hermes store insignia.

Though there was no way to confirm if it was truly branded by Hermes.

“We’ll compensate you. How much do you want? One hundred fifty marks for a shirt? Or two hundred?”

The corners of the man’s mouth twitched. He’d noticed the children were dressed quite well—apparently from a wealthy family.

I Became a Supporting Character in a Martial Arts Novel (Completed Main Story)

Chapter 165 Chapter 164

Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman

When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…

One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.

Synopsis

During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.

Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.

Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”

Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.

Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”

With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.

Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?

He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”

  1. theareads Chapter 40 — Paragraph 29
    She had intended to ask Cain to escort her home after finishing their business.

    Is it really the best idea to be going after an engaged man?

  2. theareads Chapter 40 — Paragraph 23
    〈When Miss smiles brightly enough to dazzle onlookers, it actually sends chills

    So Scarlett is a two-faced woman, just like I suspected.

  3. theareads Chapter 41 — Paragraph 70
    Only he was allowed to hurt her or put her in difficult situations.

    Honestly what a difficult man. Jane deserves much better.
