An Unbearable Marriage (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 23
“What, you even prepared something like this?”
Team Leader Woo took the paper with a grimace, as if chewing on something bitter. He gave the document a cursory glance—almost without really looking—and tossed it onto the seat beside him.
“As I’m sure you’re well aware, even without me saying so, if this footage gets out, it’ll deal a serious blow to the airline’s reputation. And if you don’t rescind the disciplinary action, I’ll have no choice but to make more aggressive use of this video.”
Da Jung deliberately kept her stance neutral by using the ambiguous word “use.”
“No, it’s just… disciplinary measures aren’t finalized right here and now at this meeting, so there’s no need to rush into such hasty statements…”
“Oh, really? Then may I take my leave now?”
Da Jung asked cheerfully, smiling brightly. Her round, apple-like cheekbones and gently upturned lips complemented each other perfectly.
“Ahem… ahem…”
Apparently too proud to dismiss her outright, Team Leader Woo subtly signaled to the person beside him. Assistant Song flinched and quickly spoke up.
“Yes. Go ahead, please. Thank you for your hard work. We’ll contact you separately with the results.”
“Yes. Thank you, and good luck.”
Da Jung stood, her voice gentle yet poised. From start to finish, she maintained an elegant posture—undeniably the demeanor of a victor.
Even as she walked out of the conference room, she could feel sharp stares boring into her back.

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.
Love at first sight without realizing it, gradually falling in love, slowly getting closer…
Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!
