After a while, the man’s eyebrows waved. Rising above the thick eyebrow mountain, it extinguished in a short moment, revealing a gentle smile.
“Then, from now on, the royal knights will be yours.”
“…Yes?”
“When you grow up as a knight, it’ll be perfect.”
“What is that…!”
In an instant, Chloe exclaimed at what had happened.
“If you freely touch what belongs to the royal family like that, it’s not good.”
“I’m the master here, so there’s nothing that shouldn’t be done, my lovely wife.”
“Still, that’s right. Do you remember not too long ago, when Bea turned the royal library into Beatrice’s possession because she liked books?”
“So, it’s fair to give something to our son too. Otherwise, Derek will feel left out, right?”
Derek, as if asking when he found Chloe, quickly stuck to Kun’s side, nodding his head. It’s not clear what that meant, but he’ll probably gladly accept it.
“Moreover, Bea also loves library gifts a lot, so there’s no need to complain. Right, daughter?”
“Yes! It’s great now that I can read books freely. I can also request and bring any books I want! Dad is the best!”
Hmm……
After making a groaning sound, Chloe eventually raised both hands and both feet.
That’s right. She would leave the rest to Kun Friedrich, her great husband and child fool.
The troublemakers, even though it hadn’t been long since they ate dinner, claimed they were sleepy. Although there were heaps of things left to do, Chloe and Kun ended up helping the children get ready for bed due to their innocence.
Tonight, it was Chloe’s turn to put Derek to sleep. Derek proudly boasted that he had read a book at the royal library, following his older sister.
Even though Derek had already removed the letters, ignoring his outstanding genes, Chloe added a word. “Today, read Dad’s story.”
“Dad?”
“Yeah, Balto? Balont! The story of Balont Kingdom fighting with Ike and reconciling again. Come to think of it, Mom lived there too. How did Mom and Dad meet? Did Mom help Dad reconcile there?”
Listening to a story that had been more than ten years, it felt somewhat unfamiliar. Suddenly recalling her hometown, Chloe was surprised by the calm feeling in her ordinary heart. It felt as if the past, which used to be anything but calm, was now nothing special.
“No, that’s not it. Dad promised peace for everyone’s sake. And Mom and Dad met because…”
Chloe, who continued the story, stopped in the middle. Thanks to Derek’s words, memories that had been forgotten and buried resurfaced.
The swamp of endless despair where Chloe struggled to escape, and eventually.
‘Would you like to be friends? Occasionally exchanging letters, inviting each other to their homes, spending time together, very close. ‘
‘So if anything happens, call me anytime. Ironically, I wish for the princess’s happiness.’
‘If that woman is the kingdom’s Cinderella, I’ll make you the Cinderella of the century. So come to me.’
‘Protect, Chloe. Protect your people. I am your person too. Just as I protected you in the past, now you protect me. We love each other.’
Finally, she faced the man who would save her.
“Hmm, destiny. Destiny.”
“Destiny?”
“It means that it had to be this way. Mom and Dad loving each other was natural.”
“Wow! Awesome! Gro-Mom, what does Gro-Dad mean to Mom?”
Derek, curious about the fairy-tale-like story, began to ask various questions.
“Meaning?”
“Yeah yeah! Well, Mom is an angel! Dad is a hero!”
After Derek’s words, Chloe pondered for a moment.
“Dad is the most precious person to Mom. He is the perfect stranger that Mom could trust and love completely, the first and last. That’s why Dad is the most valuable person to Mom.”
Whether Derek understood or not, Chloe confessed her feelings as they were. Surprisingly, the child seemed to understand. After visiting the royal library a few times with his sister, his vocabulary seemed to have expanded rapidly.
“Hehe, Mom and Dad say sweet words to each other again!”
“Huh?”
As Chloe didn’t understand, Derek gestured as if to come closer. Eventually, he secretly whispered to her, avoiding the gaze of Kun and Beatrice preparing on the other side.
“Dad is the most precious person to Mom too! He always says that Mom is pretty and lovely every time he looks at her.”
“…Really?”
“Yeah! Every time Dad and I sleep, he always brags about Mom.”
With a smile, the child confirmed once again.
Embarrassed for no reason, Chloe kissed Derek’s little forehead. The sensation of lips touching seemed ticklish, making the child giggle and wriggle.
“I think Mom and Dad are the most precious too.”
Finally, Derek whispered again.
“Really?”
“Yeah, my mom is a treasure. Dad says he’s not, but when I grow up, I’ll definitely compete with Mom. Will you accept it?”
Chloe, moved by Derek’s firm answer, hugged the child tightly. Derek, snugly embraced in his mother’s arms, also seemed pleased with various colors.
“Yeah, to Mom, Derek and Bea are eternal treasures. The most precious things in the world, no matter what you give them….”
Family.
A new foundation created by Chloe and Kun.
There, they became each other’s most precious treasures in the world.
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?”
