A Marriage So Lethal (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 73
A week passed without incident.
On the third day, at 5 a.m. sharp, the phone alarm rang. Se Ah rubbed her drowsy face, splashed some quick water on it, and headed straight to the dressing room from bed.
As she opened the wardrobe and was selecting a shirt and tie, the bathroom door inside the room opened. Her gaze met Kang Woo’s, who was loosening the belt of his robe.
“You slept well? I told you there was no need to get up so early anyway.”
“I’ve decided to switch my routine to becoming an early riser. Waking up at this hour feels good—since I rise early, the day feels longer too.”
Smiling faintly while glancing at her murmuring in a sleep-laden voice, Kang Woo removed the robe he’d briefly worn after showering. Naturally, Se Ah took it and hung it neatly on the hanger, then handed him his slacks and shirt, one after the other.
“You’re wide awake yet, and your flattery’s increasing by the day.”
Though his teasing lips tilted slightly, his fingertips remained precise as they touched the shirt buttons. Se Ah watched quietly as he lowered his chin just a bit and fastened each button in turn.
“Did HR get in touch?”
“Yes. Didn’t you know, Kang Woo?”
“Nope.”
“You’re lying. You’re pretending not to know.”
Holding the tie, she reached toward Kang Woo’s neck. Though he obligingly lowered his head and she stood on tiptoe, he was so tall she ended up grunting with effort.
“Just step on my foot and climb up.”
“Is that really okay?”

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.
