A Marriage So Lethal (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 37
Rather invent a nonexistent illness than feign a moderate level of pain. Or perhaps fret endlessly, fearing sharp-eyed Hyun Sook might catch on. Se Ah’s mind was in chaos.
Fortunately, Hyun Sook did not wander around inspecting various rooms. She headed straight to the kitchen, arranged the nourishing porridge neatly, then called her son and daughter-in-law. The pair, who had been sitting side by side on the living room sofa, entered the dining room.
“Sit down and try some. It tastes quite good.”
“Won’t you sit with us, Mother? Have you eaten yet?”
“Of course—I always eat at six sharp when your father’s home. He says digestion suffers if you eat any later.”
Se Ah pulled out Hyun Sook’s chair for her, then sat opposite.
“Aren’t you hungry, eating so early?”
“We make up for it by sleeping early—my eyes automatically close by ten. By the way, Se Ah, are you feeling very unwell anywhere?”
Hyun Sook gently placed her hand on Se Ah’s forehead.
“No fever… Could it be muscle pain? Weren’t you learning something new recently? Maybe it was too strenuous?”
“I—I’m fine, Mother. Should I at least make you some tea, then?”
“Even if you say you’re all right—just eat up quickly. You too, Kang Woo.”
At her son’s sinister smile, Hyun Sook’s eyes widened briefly before she deliberately ignored it.
“What brings you here at this hour? Father must’ve disliked it, no?”
Kang Woo took a spoonful of the porridge, then shifted his spoon toward the hangover soup Se Ah had made.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
