Saved Him, Now I'm Obsessed (10 Chapters Left to Complete) - Chapter 76
Rene frowned at his words. In his mind, Crown Prince Ian was not the kind of person who would bestow such a title without reason.
Though young enough to believe love was the whole world, Crown Prince Ian of the Empire was colder and more rational than anyone else. He was not someone who would easily give his heart to a woman—and even if he did, he certainly wouldn’t grant her such a position without justification.
“Don’t defile His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with such vulgar words.”
At Rene’s warning, Memelt dramatically closed his mouth and then continued.
“Oops! That was an indiscretion just now. In any case, what could that young girl possibly know about medicinal herbs or truly understand about patients?”
Instead of replying, Rene simply nodded. He could understand granting her a title and land, but giving her the position of Imperial Physician was something he couldn’t readily accept.
“Even so, it’ll likely be merely ceremonial. Even if you don’t worry, no patient will come asking her for treatment anyway….”
“But do you think the title ‘Imperial’ is added lightly before a profession? She’ll surely influence even common apothecaries and interfere with healers as well. Surely you understand the weight such a title carries….”
“That’s right. It’s not something we can ignore.”
After all, wasn’t Rene himself exerting considerable influence over many nobles precisely because he was known as a chef from the Imperial Palace?
Indeed, even though his title was merely “chef from the Imperial Palace” rather than “Imperial chef,” it still carried significant power. As Memelt said, her new position as “Imperial Physician” would soon become impossible to overlook.
“There are plenty of foolish people who easily sway to the power of a name—it’s certain they’ll flock to that quack physician. Right now, few seek her out only because the Medical Bureau is still confined within the Imperial Palace and largely unknown. But soon, patients will come seeking her out—and may even risk their lives due to her truly fraudulent treatments.”
Rene nodded in agreement at Healer Memelt’s words.
“I see. Her actions might put many lives in danger.”
It didn’t take much thought to realize how severely a fraudulent healer or apothecary could harm patients.
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!
