Yong Hoon didn’t say anything special, but his experienced gaze couldn’t be hidden.
At the same time.
“Hello. I’m Bong Hwang Sa. It’s truly an honor that you believe in my potential and contacted me in such a large company.”
After receiving a call asking him to bring his portfolio because the CEO was interested in stock investments, Hwang Sa came to the conference room, dressed neatly in his friend’s suit, and froze in place.
Wow. Is this person not a parasite?
“Bong Hwang Sa? You didn’t tell my sister you were coming here, did you?”
Gyo Hwan, who was discussing in the small meeting room with a specialized investment lawyer and had been sent a portfolio by email in advance, pointed at a seat across from him as if asking why Bong Hwang Sa was standing there.
“Oh, yes. How do you know about my investment plan…?”
Could it be that my sister recommended me?
But even when I asked, he said it didn’t matter.
“From now on, what I’m going to say is not on a company level, but on a personal level, so please listen carefully.”
Feeling the pressure emanating from his tone and gaze, Hwang Sa immediately straightened up slightly.
“First, hand over all the stocks you have to me.”
“What?”
“In return, if you obtain the minimum degree required to become a fund manager at a cyber university and acquire an investment professional certification, I will invest 100 million won as a priority.”
“What, 100 million won?”
“Of course, it’s not on a company level, but personally. You may think the amount is small, but it’s still the beginning. Depending on your abilities, the investment amount can be higher or lower than 100 million won in the future.”
Hwang Sa couldn’t understand why Gyo Hwan was making such a proposal rather than discussing the investment amount.
“But you must obtain the credits required to become an asset manager and the investment professional certification. I’m sure he will teach you what to do next, so don’t make excuses and refuse.”
After handing over his business card, the specialized investment lawyer finished the brief greeting and explanation with Hwang Sa and left the conference room.
“Why me? Why would you invest in me? Have you read my portfolio?”
So, you want to explore my potential and invest in me?
“I’ve read your portfolio, Bong Hwang Sa. There’s absolutely no potential right now. If I invest, it’ll only be a minus loss the more I invest.”
In fact, the investment lawyer, as someone who had won a cyber investment competition in high school, highly evaluated Hwang Sa’s potential. However, Gyo Hwan spoke coldly, thinking that Hwang Sa might just go against his instructions and end up emptyhanded.
“If you invest haphazardly without proper education like this, in three months, your whole family will be sleeping under newspapers on the streets. I can guarantee it with my life. Of course, there wouldn’t be any crazy investors who would invest in a Bong Hwang Sa without such ability.”
“But why would you invest in me?”
Hwang Sa grew even more suspicious under Gyo Hwan’s penetrating gaze as if he could see right through him.
Does he actually like Nuna? He said there’s nothing between us.
As expected, Hwang Sa silently stared into Gyo Hwan’s deep eyes that remained calm without saying a word, examining them intently.
The eyes that revealed no emotions but conveyed profound meaning the more you looked at them.
Will he like it or not?
“If it gets into Bong’s ears, I might get beaten to death.”
As if seeing through his thoughts, Gyo Hwan spoke first.
“Oh, I see.”
Hwang Sa smiled as if acknowledging it himself.
“I’m embarrassed. Of course, my sister is not exactly an educator. She’s so hottempered and violent with a lack of patience. As her younger brother, I apologize on her behalf.”
Seeing Hwang Sa sincerely seeking understanding, Gyo Hwan twitched the corner of his mouth.
From what I see, Bong Hwang Sa has far more issues, so don’t corrupt my sister from now on.
So, it’s because of the investment.
“If something happens to my sister, it will have a serious impact on my son, whom my sister is teaching.”
Gyo Hwan concluded by saying that he wants his sister to focus all her energy on educating her son, without wasting it on family problems.
“If by any chance I hear that there’s trouble because of my sister, or if my sister happens to find out about the fact that I invested in Bong Hwang Sa.”
For a moment, Hwang Sa paused, trembling with a dry gulp as if swallowing saliva.
“The investment plan I just mentioned will all turn into empty talk.”
“….”
“Of course, there will be no need to mention claiming damages during that period.”
“….”
“So, never mention it to my sister. Do you understand?”
Hwang Sa, who was a devout follower of capitalism, replied with an “Amen” as if he was receiving the teachings of a religious leader.

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?”
