People Aren't Meant to Be Fixed! (4 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 76
The next morning, in the imperial capital.
I fell ill due to eating too much meat yesterday. In the end, I finished breakfast with just a bowl of warm soup and a small piece of bread, took the digestive remedy brought by my maid, and sternly warned her not to tell Jeff or Hecate about this.
It was obvious those two would panic, blame themselves, burst into tears, and inevitably summon Lady Agnes, the royal physician. Using the excuse that light exercise was best for regaining health, I took Poppy and walked a lap around the garden.
‘Today just happens to be a self-study day.’
Afterward, returning to my bedroom to rest, I lazed about on the sofa and suddenly thought of Lilith.
‘Perfect. I’ll call Lilith to the classroom under the pretense of supervising self-study.’
Coincidentally, I had an unresolved problem left over, and it was only natural to summon a suitable collaborator for consultation—for the sake of the Empire’s well-being.
Moreover, there were no classes today, and no visitors expected from either the Fleur or Vladimir households, so disguising leisurely reading as self-study was just right to ease the dullness of the day. I couldn’t order the Empress’s aide around without reason, so it would be perfect if Lilith, as someone trustworthy, came when asked.
Though it had been a long time ago, Lilith had once taught me military tactics, so asking her to act as a supervisor wouldn’t be odd at all. It was flawless.
‘Lilith will surely come—she must be curious.’
She’s the kind who, despite grumbling that I lack charm and never understand her feelings, always reaches out her hand whenever I need her. If that counts as taking advantage of her, then yes—I suppose I am, but I have no other choice.
Anyway, when an opportunity appears, I can’t just kick it away like a football right in front of me.
“Miranda, go tell Lilith to come to the classroom at self-study time.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
After sending someone off, a sudden thought crossed my mind: if I ended up chatting idly with Lilith during self-study, my actual study time would dwindle.
When male lead is the homewrecker
“I know she doesn’t love him.”
I’ve read the novel below twice already. Girls, I’m highly recommending it to you!
The female lead? Not a good person.
The second male lead? Not a good person.
The male lead? Willingly plays the third party, breaking up the female and second male lead’s relationship despite all the warnings from his friends—so yeah, he’s definitely not a good person either.
Basically, nobody in this novel is simple-minded or without scheming.
The female lead starts off as the male lead’s secretary, but don’t worry—later on, she takes over the company while the male lead steps back to support her. He won’t steal her spotlight, overshadow her, or dull her shine.
I love novels where men are out here snatching wigs, tearing each other down, and going to war just to win the female lead’s affection. And this is exactly that kind of novel. Most of Hai Dai Ran’s works have this dynamic. You’ll see the male characters’ emotions being pushed to the absolute extreme.
There’s even a scene where the second male lead exposes the male lead online for being a homewrecker. The brotherhood immediately gangs up on him, dragging him through the mud. I find it compelling —it completely flips reality on its head, where usually, women are the ones fighting over a man and getting torn apart by the sisterhood.
For me, female leads in the novels I read should only struggle in their careers, not in love. But if the brainless romantics in the story are all men? I have zero complaints.
I’ve pretty much read all of Hai Dai Ran’s novels and even translated all of them—her works are just my thing. I’ll slowly upload everything here. One day, when my website is official, I hope I can invite her to join as one of the star authors.
Here’s the story synopsis:
One-line summary: She is his lifelong obsession, to the point where he was willing to be a third wheel, scorned by society, just to wedge his way into her relationship with her fiancé.
Cold-hearted and indifferent female lead + Scheming and subservient CEO male lead
Intro 1:
“I know she doesn’t love him.”
With blood trickling from his clenched fist, Rong Xiu gazed at the woman before him, his eyes clouded with anguish. Hidden in the wardrobe, he had witnessed Fan Xia – the woman he desperately loved – in an intimate embrace with her fiancé. Yet his heart still yearned for her, defying all reason.
Fan Xia, the elegant and composed assistant, carried something mysterious in her eyes whenever she looked at her fiancé, Wen Lan Sheng. Strange occurrences began to surface – secret meetings with the young Gu Jin Yi, an unexplained withdrawal of 5,000 yuan… Then suddenly, her fiancé’s sister, Wen Jing, violently attacked her.
In this matriarchal society, Rong Xiu had risen to become the chairman of a powerful healthcare conglomerate, breaking through gender prejudices. But for the first time, he willingly stepped into the shadows as the other man, disregarding his friends’ warnings to become her secret lover.
Because he had discovered the truth – Fan Xia wasn’t the pure angel everyone believed her to be. And perhaps, he was the only one capable of helping her execute her mysterious plan…
Intro 2:
Rong Xiu’s biggest regret in life was missing out on Fan Xia.
He secretly loved Fan Xia for 7 years.
Watched her go public with her boyfriend.
Watched her kiss her boyfriend at their wedding.
Until that man blissfully nestled in Fan Xia’s arms, obtaining everything he could only dream of.
The crazy jealousy stripped away his hidden secret love, layer by layer, burning like wildfire.
Fan Xia, how can I have you!
