To You, Whom I Shouldn't Love (24 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 70
Riena was idly swinging her feet back and forth when Cassel, watching her, asked,
“Is your foot bothering you? Did you perhaps hurt it…?”
“No, it’s just that these are new shoes, and my heel seems a little rubbed raw. It’s also been a while since I wore formal party shoes. I’ve rested enough now, so I think it’s fine to head back.”
“May I take a quick look before we go?”
“…Yes?”
Before Riena had even fully given her permission, Cassel knelt down on one knee in front of her. Avoiding his gaze as he looked up at her intently, she found herself nodding absentmindedly.
He carefully took hold of Riena’s left foot and slipped off her shoe. His eyes examined her foot with deliberate attention.
“There is indeed a slight wound here. Fortunately, it’s not serious, but once we return, you should still have it seen by a physician.”
“No, if it’s not serious, a little ointment will suffice. It’d be a bit embarrassing to call a physician over something this trivial.”
“Even so, it might get worse if left untreated. You truly shouldn’t hesitate to summon a physician—we pay them well enough.”
His tone was so resolute that Riena didn’t object further.
Interpreting her silence as consent, Cassel didn’t press her further and instead examined her right foot this time.
He removed the shoe just as carefully and checked for injuries. Unlike her left foot, her right showed no signs of harm.
Though he’d clearly checked both feet, Cassel didn’t release her foot. Just as he’d once done in the garden at night, he couldn’t seem to look away from it.
But his eyes held none of that sinister desire from before—in fact, quite the opposite. His gaze was plain, even carrying a faint trace of melancholy.

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.”
