“Yes, it’s not important. So, please approve my resignation,” Yeon-woo emphasized.

A cold silence returned. Yeon-woo swallowed dryly. The usually storm-like Tae-han, lost in thought, was unfamiliar.

But Yeon-woo thought that now things would proceed according to her wishes.

The company had no way to stop an employee’s resignation rights.

After a while, Tae-han’s face, which had been intensely staring at Yeon-woo, changed slightly.

Yeon-woo trembled slightly, recognizing the familiar expression and atmosphere.

She had spent five years by Tae-han’s side and knew his small habits well. His keen nature meant he was quick to catch on, and when he sensed something…

‘Surely not,’ she thought as he wore a twisted smile.

Yeon-woo’s heart fluttered uneasily for a moment, then Tae-han’s voice, sounding strangely relieved, flowed.

“I have one question,” he said.

Yeon-woo lifted her head.

“How long have you been dating your boyfriend?”

His unexpected question about the duration of her relationship was a first, making Yeon-woo feel the advantageous atmosphere shifting to him.

“Why do you ask?” she inquired.

“Don’t I have the right to ask? After all I’ve done for you,” he replied.

Yeon-woo couldn’t argue with that.

Still, she didn’t understand why he was curious about her love life, but she couldn’t avoid answering.

Yeon-woo finally chose a safe reply.

“About a year.”

“One year,” Tae-han echoed.

While Yeon-woo faced Tae-han’s relentless gaze, he twisted one corner of his mouth upwards.

“I know Yeon-woo isn’t the kind of woman to do that.”

“Thinking you know others well is arrogance, Mr. President,” Yeon-woo replied, feeling a tightening in her chest but keeping her composure.

“That day was just an accident for me too.”

“An accident?”

“Yes, an accident.”

Tae-han’s eyebrows rose rebelliously.

Again, silence ensued.

Yeon-woo couldn’t decipher Tae-han’s thoughts behind his sharp gaze that seemed to pierce through and unravel everything. He was the one who initially used the term “accident.”

Determined not to be swayed, Yeon-woo clenched her fist.

“Secretary Yeon-woo, you’ve grown a lot.”

After a while, as Yeon-woo could no longer bear his blatant stare and averted her gaze, a dry smirk escaped Tae-han.

“Daring to treat me like a fool.”

His eyes flickered coldly.

“Is that really the face of a woman about to get married?”

Yeon-woo, who had been shaken, bit her lip.

“If you’re going to lie, why don’t you go to an acting school?”

“Please stop. Whatever you think, it doesn’t concern me. I don’t want to talk about this anymore.”

“Why wouldn’t it concern me? You slept with me. Three times. No, four, including the morning?”

“Mr. President!”

Yeon-woo’s face flushed hotly as she shouted.

In contrast, Tae-han straightened up and lifted his chin arrogantly.

“Thinking you can have me and then run away, quite ambitious.”

“Your words are excessive. What exactly do you want to say…?”

“It can’t be like that.”

In Tae-han’s eyes, a black flame seemed to ignite.

“Mr. President…”

“Think about it all night.”

Tae-han tapped his head with his index finger.

“Logically.”

Without further argument, Yeon-woo watched as he left a message to see her at the office the next day and then turned away.

She didn’t have the chance to stop him, but even if she had tried, Tae-han had already climbed into his car and left the alley.

Yeon-woo’s lips trembled as she stared blankly at the red taillights.

“Ah…”

The cold air reddened her nose. Her mind and heart were too tumultuous to regain composure.

Yeon-woo first met Tae-han five years ago.

In her final year of university, she was about to face an important interview.

‘Please let me pass.’

Growing up in a single-parent household, Yeon-woo’s dream was to make her mother, who had worked in a restaurant all her life, rest.

To do that, she needed to start earning money as soon as possible, and preferably more than just a little. In this sense, Taeseong Biologics was the most ideal place for her among many companies.

After thorough preparation and passing all stages, only the final interview remained. Dressed for the interview and standing in front of the mirror, Yeon-woo took a deep breath.

‘I can do this.’

There was another reason for her nervousness.

The grandson of Taeseong Group’s chairman, Ki Tae-han, had taken up the president position at the biotech company, creating a big stir.

“He’s said to be a thug.”

Different from his older brother Ki Tae-wook, who was an elite in management, little was known about the younger grandson.

Rumors circulated that the family deliberately hid his existence, making him a frequent topic in job seekers’ study groups.

“They say he’s a womanizer, a tyrant, and untamed.”

“Isn’t there a scar across his face? They say it’s why he doesn’t appear in public.”

“Yeon-woo, can you really work as a secretary for such a person? What will you do if you get the job?”

While everyone worried about her, Yeon-woo herself didn’t believe in those rumors.
The grandson of a global conglomerate, competing at the top in the world, being a gangster and a tyrant, seemed like an absurd tale.

“Sigh.”

But perhaps it did worry her inwardly.

In the selection process for the secretary position of the second grandson, rumored to be a gangster, she was so nervous her fingertips tingled.

After taking a deep breath and sitting in the waiting room for a while, it was finally her turn.

“Ms. Seo Yeon-woo, please come in.”

As she entered through the door opened by an employee, she was dazzled by the sunlight streaming in through the large windows on the opposite side.

There was a man sitting with his back to the window.

His shoulders as wide as the Pacific and a thick neck, his intense and penetrating gaze seemed to see right through her to the ground.

She had been through several interviews before, but this was the first time she encountered an interviewer with such a powerful presence.

“Please sit down.”

Hearing the unfamiliar voice, she realized there were two more interviewers beside the man.

Questions and answers were exchanged in a smooth atmosphere, but she couldn’t completely relax until the end.

Just as she was about to leave the interview room and make her final greeting, a deep voice flowed in.

“Ms. Seo Yeon-woo.”

She didn’t need to look up to know who the voice belonged to. Yeon-woo swallowed dryly and looked at the man.

He was sitting askew, resting one hand on his chin, casually flipping through her resume.

She thought even this scene seemed like a moment out of a movie.

Male lead Asks for a Divorce Every Day

It’s not often you come across a plot like this in the female-dominant genre — make sure to check it out!

This is a novel I’m planning to reread as well.

The male lead is strong, skilled in martial arts, and not the usual fragile type you often see in matriarchal novels.

Meanwhile, the female lead is a scientist—rational and logical. Even when she falls for the male lead, she doesn’t let her emotions cloud her decisions.

If you push through the first few chapters, you’ll gradually find the story really intriguing.

It has a mix of mystery, detective elements, and romance.

The author’s writing style is like crafting a puzzle—except they deliberately leave out a few pieces, making it hard to predict what happens next, yet keeping you hooked.

In the end, everything will come together and be explained.

One-sentence summary: Wife, stop playing with beakers and look at me!

In a laboratory accident, research scientist Zhu Wansheng accidentally travels to a matriarchal world. The original owner of the body is an eighteen-year-old only daughter of a wealthy rouge merchant, already married with a handsome young man.

Zhu Wansheng grins: Nice! She always said she was heaven’s favorite granddaughter. After a life of toil in her previous life, she can enjoy blessings in this one.

However, her joy lasts no more than three seconds as bad news arrives: the original owner’s family is about to go bankrupt, and her husband wants a divorce.

Even worse, she’s stuck with a research system full of restrictions.

Zhu Wansheng: ? Is this the destiny of a research dog?

——

Faced with this mess, Zhu Wansheng pours herself a bowl of wine to drown her sorrows. In her drunken haze, her husband arrives.

His figure is imposing, holding a long sword, with a dignified air that captivates Zhu Wansheng.

Gu Yingqing, however, looks at the alcohol-reeking Zhu Wansheng with undisguised disgust and coldly asks, “Divorce or not?” The intoxicated Zhu Wansheng mumbles vaguely, “I think… it’s not… it’s not… impossible!”

——

The next day, after sobering up, Zhu Wansheng is full of energy, rolling up her sleeves ready to make a big move. As for yesterday? She has no memory of it.

Zhu Wansheng is ambitious; a research dog fears nothing!

Upgrading rouge, extracting fragrances, producing perfumes, researching lipsticks… all shall bow to the power of modern technology!

The original owner’s dying rouge shop is revitalized. Her mother is pleased and with a wave of her hand, passes on the family business to her. As she takes control and her experimental results gain popularity, it’s the pinnacle of her life…

——

But there are always those who can’t stand to see her doing well. Jealousy, scheming, assassination attempts – they want nothing less than her life.

The person who has always kept his distance from her suddenly holds her tightly in his arms, eyes full of concern.

She is unharmed, but he falls into a pool of blood…

Zhu Wansheng feels guilty, “I can grant you one wish.”

Gu Yingqing tentatively circles his arms around her, carefully resting his head in the crook of her neck, pleading softly, “I regret it. Can we not divorce?”

Zhu Wansheng: ? When did I agree to a divorce?

[Small Theater]

The newly developed rouge is beautifully packaged, and Zhu Wansheng is eager to try it.

Gu Yingqing suddenly appears: “My lady, may I apply it for you?”

Cool fingertips lightly brush her lips. His Adam’s apple bobs as he leans in for a light bite.

Zhu Wansheng: ?

Gu Yingqing: It smells so good, I wanted to taste it…

On a warm spring day, Zhu Wansheng tries a new perfume: “Spring Night.” Gu Yingqing corners her against a wall.

Warm breath lingers on her neck.

“My lady, from now on, may I test the fragrances for you?”
