At the End of Ruin, There You Are (56 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 83
The greetings and courtesies flying toward Caella were not done half-heartedly. Knights passing by would immediately halt their steps and salute the moment they spotted the Grand Duke and Duchess.
Even the maids and servants visible in the distance bowed deeply, regardless of whether or not the couple noticed them. Even the nobles working within the castle respectfully greeted Caella, leaving her wondering what on earth was going on.
Though she had spent a long time as Princess Ostein and thus accepted the greetings calmly, everything happening now felt suspicious and strange. After all, these people had no reason to be so unusually warm toward her.
“Your Highness, thank you.”
“Thank you so much.”
Moreover, among those she encountered, some even expressed gratitude along with their greetings. Unable to understand why, Caella looked around until her eyes met Pheon’s, who was calmly escorting her. He clearly knew something.
“Hm?”
She hadn’t said a word—only stared—but his violet eyes curved gently. A rare, handsome smile appeared, and he laughed. Pheon was smiling at Caella.
Was he mocking her? Logically speaking, there was no reason for him to smile like that at a woman who’d secretly sneaked in at night and recklessly gotten pregnant.
Even after she’d confessed such a secret, Caella couldn’t understand why Pheon kept smiling at her.
Or perhaps she simply didn’t want to understand.
“Why, Caella?”
Pheon turned toward her. His focus on her was almost frightening.
“…Ah, it’s nothing.”
He was the son of the Mad Dragon. Caella vowed never to forget that fact. Who knew what might happen if she made a mistake in front of the Mad Dragon’s son?
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?”
