Saying that, Elodie hugged Balter and laughed hehe, and Balter frowned at her.

Balter’s unreserved reaction felt rather like evidence that the two were close.

She somehow felt a bit disheartened.

In the midst of this, no matter where she went in the ballroom, the two’s conversation could be heard.

‘I thought I would just meet Count Xavier and leave.’

It feels like I’ve just thrown food to the gossiploving people.

It’s a good thing that Lizeina did not attend this banquet.

Odette’s gaze briefly turned behind her.

A little distance away, Louis and Balter were having a friendly conversation.

“I heard you’ve been ill recently, Count Clovis. Are you feeling better?”

“I’m getting that question everywhere. Other than being embarrassed that I have been careless with my health, I’m fine.”

“Well, seeing your good spirits, you seem to have recovered.”

Balter smiled loosely, lifting his glass to his lips, and Louis moved on to another topic, their conversation naturally continuing.

From a distance, it couldn’t be heard clearly, but even from a glance, the atmosphere was good.

To a stranger, it would seem the two were quite close.

‘They seem to be on better terms than I thought.’

I thought he hated Count Clovis.

Then why did he propose to me?

As Odette tilted her head in puzzlement, Elodie clapped her hands.

“By the way, Your Highness! Haven’t you been inside the ballroom yet? The dance music hasn’t started, so how about taking a short walk? It’s very pretty! I can guide you.”

By “inside the ballroom,” she meant places to rest, decorated spaces.

From the host’s standpoint, it could be subtly used to show off the family’s wealth, so it was natural for it to be splendid, but Elodie, who was making her debut, seemed quite fascinated by it.

‘Maybe it’s better to take a look inside rather than standing here aimlessly.’

And Odette didn’t feel particularly bad about Elodie’s suggestion either.

Of course, there was also the awkwardness of flatly refusing.

“Alright. Can I ask you to guide me?”

“Of course!”

Following the cheerful Elodie, Odette moved.

Without any anticipation of what would happen next.

“……Did she leave?”

Balter’s slow voice seeped out as he looked at a part of the ballroom.
The faint smile that had lingered on his face disappeared around that time, but no one had yet noticed.

Instead, the young man chatting cheerfully beside him only expressed puzzlement.

“Left? Who said that?”

“The count’s partner. And the young lady Montuar who showed great interest in the count.”

“Ah, you mean Lady Elodie? She was a lively and cute person.”

The young man, Louis, smiled faintly.

Elodie had followed Odette around and spoken to Louis beside her a few times, and that’s why he remembered.

And Walter casually asked as if to test the waters.

“You seem to have a pretty good impression of Lady Montuar?”

“Lively people are good to keep around. Just being with them lifts your mood.”

“Really? Despite that, the count’s partner seems far from lively.”

As Odette’s story unexpectedly surfaced, Louis’s face momentarily stiffened.

Now, Louis too had somewhat heard the rumors swirling around Walter and Odette.

Above all, there was also a story he had heard from Odette.

[Dash]I was waiting at the promised place, but I was interrupted by Duke Ertman.

[Dash]Just to clarify, Duke Ertman and I have no relationship whatsoever.

Looking at her attitude, it seemed that Walter was unilaterally reaching out to Odette.

Whether it was sincere or not, reacting too sharply wouldn’t be good either.

“……Haha, surely liveliness isn’t the only criterion for a good person, is it?”

Louis mumbled, laughing. Walter chuckled at his smooth speech.

“That’s true. There could be many criteria for a good person.”

“You are right. And Her Highness the 4th Princess is certainly a good person.”

“So the count became the partner of the 4th Princess for that reason?”

“If she is a good person, why refuse an opportunity that came by chance?”

As he indirectly said that becoming Odette’s partner was coincidental, Walter looked at Louis with a slightly puzzled eye.

As if to check whether Louis was hiding something.

“The 4th Princess and Count Clovis, it’s a somewhat unfamiliar combination, so I wonder how they became partners.”

“Others have said that too. I understand.”

“And recently… I heard an odd story. I wondered if the count was also part of it.”

“An odd story?”

“Something trivial and vain comes to mind, something not in memory.”

Recalling being friends with someone they weren’t close to, or feeling like they experienced something they hadn’t.

Walter listed a few examples, then seemed to remember something and added.

“I hear that sometimes a memory arises of being married to someone with no connection. What about the count?”

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?”
