Why Do You Obsess Even After Death (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 23
After teasing Delia, it felt as though the tightness in my chest had eased, even if just a little.
I hadn’t originally intended to take such a risky action. I’d already taken revenge countless times over many lifetimes, so in this life, I’d resolved to live for myself—not for vengeance.
That wasn’t to say they hadn’t wronged me in this life, but I truly hadn’t planned to care at all.
Not until Delia became so irritating right before my eyes.
Of course, I’d dared to do it precisely because I knew Delia was unusually timid, easily believed in ghosts, and had the habit of covering her ears and squeezing her eyes shut whenever frightened.
Since you know me well, I know you all just as well.
“A-ah—choo!”
But perhaps it was my own fault for stepping outside barefoot and in thin clothing just to tease Delia—I’d caught a cold.
I kept it tightly hidden, worried someone might find out and suspect something if they learned I’d suddenly caught a cold.
Fortunately, I didn’t have a fever or body aches.
It was just a typical cold: frequent sneezing, an itchy nose, and a slightly sore throat that occasionally made me cough.
‘This is the first time in my life I’ve sneezed this much…’
Whenever I’d been unwell before, I’d always been treated by Pesoor, Niriel’s personal physician, and taken medicine.
After trying in vain to soothe my reddened nose with a handkerchief, I went to find Laches.
Truthfully, I’d been waiting for him to summon me or for us to meet naturally…
The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
