Although Lú asked with a ominous feeling, Hayden, who felt it, raised his face and smiled.
“Thank you for lending me your knee. I had a good rest because of you.”
“Your Majesty?”
“I appreciate you trying to protect me. But let’s make this the last time.”
Rising from his seat, he murmured as he leaned close to Lú.
In an instant, a refreshing and fresh forest scent overwhelmed her. Lú suddenly realized how wide his shoulders were as they completely enveloped her. His large hands covered her hand that lay on the dress hem.
“There won’t be a next time.”
Hayden raised the hand and lightly kissed the back of it. Throughout the kiss, his gray eyes stared intensely at her lips, as if leaving a hot trace of his feelings.
“It will definitely be like that.”
It was not an imposition on Lú but a self-made vow.
[Star icon]The white imperial flag wielded by Imperialle swept through the eastern region.
Those related to the Moiqufel family who had been invited to the emperor’s hosted banquet were arrested in the middle of the night. Not only Turington but also, just before leaving the main gate, the gate of the Moiqufel was forcibly opened.
“Arrest all traitors! This is the Emperor’s command!”
Just the sound of knocking on the door and breaking it in the middle of the night was enough to evoke fear. Those with the name Moiqufel, as well as those who changed their surnames through marriage, were dragged out of bed without exception.
“Arrest them all first and then start.”

“Grand Duke Lavo has been occupied by Imperialle. The ancient fortress, now merely used as a castle, Labo Castle, was no exception. Just in case there might be a siege within the castle, Simon Kainberg, the Royal Count between the palace walls, decided to cut it off from the beginning.
Thanks to this, the nobles who woke up in the morning were in chaos, trying to find out the aftermath of the emperor’s assassination attempt incident that occurred at the banquet last night. However, no matter how hard the nobles tried, the news could not spread faster than the emperor, who was tearing apart the Moiqufel Grand Duchy himself.
“Lú.”
And the emperor appeared leisurely in front of Lú’s room, who had just risen, washed, and changed clothes.
“Shall we have a meal together?”
She, who seemed unusually tired, didn’t think of refusing him, and followed him.
“Did you stay up all night?”
Hayden nodded slowly. Although there were no people in the corridor they were walking, Imperialle and courtiers guarded every door.
“You must be tired.”
“My body isn’t tired, but my mind is. Has Yeongae not had any trouble sleeping?”
“Yes, I slept well.”
“That’s fortunate. For a while, focus on resting, eating, and sleeping without any worries.”
“After a good rest, I feel refreshed, Your Majesty.”
“My mind continues to wear out because of you. I hope you understand.”
The dining room, with fresh flowers, sparkling cutlery, and smooth plates, was beautiful enough to forget the events of the previous night. Alselot Palace was unusually peaceful, as if asking what happened. Moreover, there were others sitting in the dining room.
“Good morning, Yeongae.”
“Hello, Lord Melphios.”
Is today’s breakfast only for these three people? Lú sat down, keeping in mind that this was also a philosopher’s treatment.
“I will have to stay here for a while, Your Majesty.”
“You are welcome anytime.”
“Thank you. How do you intend to handle the Grand Duke?”
Melpheos asked straightforwardly, and Hayden, while observing Lú drinking water, looked at him.
“I think the time has come for the name Moiqufel to be remembered only as a designation.”
It will no longer be used as a person’s name.
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?”
