Perhaps because he was so timid, Jiwon avoided watching those duels unless it was an urgent situation.
But after starting a relationship with Taehee, Sajun hadn’t set foot in the gym.
Now, finally, he seemed to have become mild like a person. I wondered if something was really wrong with Taehee.
The conclusion was that seeing that appearance after a long time made Jiwon break out in a cold sweat. Come to think of it, I’ve been nagging Sajun a lot lately.
With his mind suddenly clear, Jiwon pledged to himself. I should do well from now on, not nag, and take better care of this body.
“Sajun.”
Just calling his name, but a sharp gaze flew like an arrow.
Sajun coming down from the ring was like a unleashed beast.
The vitality that still lingered in the sweaty muscles seemed to wriggle like a fierce fierceness.
“How does it feel to loosen up your body after a long time?”
“It got worse.”
At Sajun’s harsh reply, Jiwon swallowed dry saliva. There’s a pretty big contract, I have to go see the building, and I have to stick around all day today. I thought something big happened.
With his bare upper body, Sajun headed for the shower room.
How long had he waited?
Sajun, who came out without drying his wet hair, had a fresh face in a neat suit.
I always feel it, but the suit does wonders. It hides the raw and fierce nature as it is, making it all the more effective.
As they arrived at the parking lot, Jiwon quickly walked and opened the door to the back seat.
Then Sajun spat out suddenly.
“Hyung, why are you doing something you didn’t do before?”
“Haha, opening the door for the boss I serve is a matter of course.”
“Gross, never do it again.”
Sajun, who sat in the back seat, buried himself in the seat and fixed his gaze outside the window.
He slowly closed and opened his eyes, but the view remained vivid.
Last night, thinking he might not answer the phone, he went to Min Taehee’s house.
I was going to kneel down and confess my love.
I wanted to be deceived, whether it’s fake or whatever, as long as my sincerity can reach you.
However, what I saw after going to great lengths was Min Taehee and Song Jehyun, who looked like lovers having a momentary dispute.
Except for when Hyesuk was taken to the emergency room, Min Taehee, who had never shed a tear, was sorrowfully crying.
Saying she forgot about me, saying we’ll never meet again.
I knew it wasn’t the Taehee who cried about the bleeding knee.
From the moment she coolly cut it off as if it were me right now, I knew she wouldn’t look back at anything.
Such Taehee, Song Jehyun just let her be. Looking at her with tears in his eyes, with eyes distorted by emotions.
It was the moment when a dismal conclusion was drawn within Sajun’s heart. Min Taehee’s confession was truly a series of fakes.
Pretending not to, but shaken when Song Jehyun returned, it’s ultimately a fake to go back to Song Jehyun.
As an excuse to leave you because I truly love you, unable to endure even the remaining month, trying to go back to Song Jehyun. Someone said true love is wishing for the happiness of the one you love.
So, it was right to wish for Min Taehee’s happiness.
Min Taehee, who overcame a difficult life with tenacity, now deserves to be happy.
Even after trying everything, Min Taehee did not come over, and it was time to admit defeat.
To let go of Min Taehee now, to send her away, to wish her happiness.
Knowing that, even though I know it.
Sajun tapped his forehead on the car window nervously and muttered, “Just go to hell.”
Because I don’t understand that kind of love that wishes for the happiness of the one you love. The love I know is keeping it by my side even if I have to snatch it away.
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?”
