This Life, I Will Save The Duke (20 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 120
“Indeed, madam, you’re fiery as ever.”
“I’ve known it since you confessed in the greenhouse.”
“When will you finally let us hug you, Young Duke!”
Good heavens.
Dozens of people emerged from behind the lights. To be doing something so embarrassingly affectionate in front of so many—it was enough to make her wish she could faint from shame.
“…That’s too much.”
Kaius smiled faintly at Ariel’s softly muttered complaint, her face flushed crimson. He guided her to sit down and then signaled Anna with a glance.
“Lady Ariel, it’s time to make a wish.”
When she gently lifted her deeply bowed head, a chocolate cake with a candle stuck in it sat before her. Only then did Ariel realize how extravagantly the dining table was laden with food—and how excessively many wine bottles there were.
Barely overcoming her embarrassment, Ariel glanced around. Countless knights surrounded her, all eyes fixed intently on her.
“Ariel, you need to make a wish.”
Kaius prompted again, almost urging her. Ariel stared at his face once more before closing her eyes.
Kaius watched her quietly and deeply as she made her wish, opened her eyes, and blew out the candle with a soft puff of breath.
“Happy birthday, Ariel.”
Curious about what she’d wished for, Kaius chose not to ask but instead raised his wine glass to propose a toast.
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.”

One-sentence summary: What goes around comes around, taking turns in the crematorium
Kaius is everything that is right with this world. I would have liked him to stay and accompany Ariel since he is her fiancé, but following her and rescuing her from Ludvian was way better hahaha. They get their moment alone, even if Ariel doesn’t take advantage of it.
Ugh, Ariel should have been firmer in pushing Ludvian away. I would love it if Kaius got way more involved in that and took her away with him instead of letting her stay with Ludvian—even if that parasite ended up being the third wheel, I wouldn’t have minded!
I really don’t understand Ariel. I mean, she says she’s in love with Kaius, and right now when he gets close, she struggles to break free and then runs away. In fact, admitting her feelings would have been the best way to make him believe she wanted to keep the engagement with him.
