When Yoon signaled for him to open his mouth as if in a hurry, Kang Hyun reluctantly opened it.
In this way, Yoon continued to serve Kang Hyun’s meal. From up close, she saw that his lips were also split.
“Phew, it looks like you’re more injured than I thought. There are scratches here too…… What are we going to do with these injuries on your face?”
As Yoon approached closely and looked into his face with worry, Kang Hyun’s mood gradually improved.
“Now I don’t have to put on makeup, it’s good, isn’t it?”
He always had to put scar makeup on his face for his killer role, but given his current state, he felt like he could go on shooting as is for a while.
“Anyway, I’m glad it’s only this much. Were other people hurt a lot?”
“No one was seriously injured.”
Kang Hyun opened his mouth again as the spoon approached. Being fed by Yoon, he oddly felt like he had become a child.
Yoon always seemed like a child to him, but now she felt more mature than he was.
“Try eating this too.”
Yoon evenly fed him this and that. Each time, Kang Hyun became a wellbehaved child, graciously accepting whatever she gave him.
“Shall I serve you more rice?”
Kang Hyun had emptied a bowl of rice before he knew it.
“I ate a lot.”
Kang Hyun laughed again. Strangely, he kept wanting to laugh.
“Wouldn’t it be better to be admitted to the hospital now?”
Yoon looked down at his ankle worriedly. His swollen ankle seemed to weigh on her mind the whole time
“If it doesn’t feel better by the end of the day, I’ll consider that. But I think it should be okay by tomorrow. I’ve been hurt a couple of times, so I have a rough idea of what’s to come.”
“I think the shooting location is too dangerous.”
“I always checked before filming, it’s just that I was unlucky this time. Regardless, I have to start filming again tomorrow.”
“What? What filming are you talking about? You’re so injured.”
Yoon raised her voice a bit, accusing it of being nonsense.
“I want to rest too, but there’s a schedule, you know.”
Kang Hyun found such Yoon amusing and continued his childish act.
“That doesn’t make sense. Even though you’re hurt like this, you should take a few days off. It’s going to be hard to start filming from tomorrow.”
The more upset Yoon became, the better Kang Hyun strangely felt.
“That’s what I’m saying. But the schedule is tight, so I can’t help it.”
Kang Hyun grumbled with a sullen expression.
“Has the filming been significantly delayed?”
Yoon’s eyebrows furrowed as she looked at him.
“The schedule is pressing.”
“Since you couldn’t film today, it will be more difficult in the future.”
Yoon was worried about Kang Hyun. Come to think of it, his face seemed to have become more irritable recently. She hoped his filming would end soon.
“Is the schedule always this tight?”
Yoon asked him as she gave him some water.
“I have to do more until it ends.”
Kang Hyun made a sound as if he was dying. Seeing Yoon wipe even his mouth with a tissue, Kang Hyun was pleased, and his mouth turned into a grin.
‘She’s worried about me as if she were my wife.’
When he was hurting and tired, he had said that only family mattered, and now he felt that Yoon truly was his family.
“Now, go up and rest. You look very tired.”
“Should I?”
As he said that, the thought of going up seemed to be a big deal. Yoon let out a sigh secretly without Kang Hyun knowing.
“When going up, just hold on to the railing.”
Kang Hyun spoke as he watched Yoon, who seemed perplexed.
“Let’s go up together.”
“If you weren’t here, I wouldn’t have been able to even wash, and I might have starved. I wouldn’t have even been able to go up to my room.”
“If Director Kwak hadn’t gone to the hospital, you, Kang Hyun, would have been more comfortable.”
“Being with you seems better, don’t you think? You even fed me like this.”
Kang Hyun took Yoon’s outstretched hand, stood up, and wrapped his arm around her shoulder.
“So, shall we go up now?”
Kang Hyun embraced Yoon. She slipped comfortably into his arms. The two of them slowly climbed the stairs.
“I’m sorry you couldn’t study today because of me.”
Kang Hyun said, looking at her with loving eyes.
“Does study matter when you, Kang Hyun, are injured?”
The light caught Yoon’s clear eyes, making them twinkle.
“Is that so? Thank you.”
Moved, Kang Hyun smiled brightly.
‘The illegitimate child who asked for a building was Yoon?’
No matter how he thought about it, Yoon was not that kind of person.
‘It seemed there must have been some misunderstanding.’
Kang Hyun started to regret the way he had behaved towards Yoon up until now.
“It doesn’t seem like I was of much help, though.”
Yoon, buried in his arms, spoke as if a cute bird was whispering.
“You even washed my hair. That was a big help.”
In her ear, Kang Hyun also whispered quietly.
Yoon, who had entered Kang Hyun’s room with him, sat him on the bed and meticulously dried his still damp hair with a hairdryer.
“Wait, I’ll bring your medicine.”
Yoon
Kang Hyun spoke, clutching her clothes like a child.
“Huh?”
“No, I was just saying. You should go rest too. It must have been hard today.”
His face seemed to have drained half of its color from supporting him. Anyone watching would have thought the patient was Yoon, not him.
He had continued to cling to her, admiring her efforts to help him despite the difficulty. However, Kang Hyun felt sorry, thinking he might have made her struggle too much.
“You can leave now.”
Kang Hyun waved at Yoon, who was standing still, shivering.
“Call me if you’re not feeling well.”
“Alright.”
Yoon hesitated, seeming worried about Kang Hyun, then opened the door and left. When Yoon left, Kang Hyun lay down on the bed.
He was in a daze due to not being able to sleep properly for a few days. On top of that, he was injured, so it had been a hard day for him too.
Kang Hyun raised his left hand that had been holding her shoulder.
‘I need to gain some weight.’
Her frail shoulders made him feel pity every time he touched them. She seemed to eat well without being picky, but her intake was small.
‘Her waist is so thin. Is she on a diet like them?’
He remembered Shin Young Joo and Chae So Yi who would starve themselves as a part of their daily routine for dieting. It was impressive to see them manage hard shoots even with such little intake.
‘Well, there’s no way Seo Yoon would diet.’
Yoon did not pay much attention to her appearance. She always wore comfortable pants and a tshirt, perhaps because she stayed at home most of the time. However, Kang Hyun liked her relaxed look.
Surrounded by women who wore heavy makeup and emitted suffocating perfume, he felt more comfortable when he was with Yoon.
He didn’t know if that was why he continually wanted to be by her side.

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?”
