Seduced the Doomed Villain (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 158
“Your Highness.”
The prince’s palace was completely empty—no maids, no attendants. Prince Raid stood alone, listening to his subordinate’s report.
“The young lady’s maids were nowhere to be found.”
Raid wore a troubled expression. Sharing information with Lady Diana was proving far more difficult than he had anticipated.
First, he had no idea where she currently was. Even her most trusted confidants had vanished without a trace. Moreover, the Beatus family was deeply divided by factions, making it hard to trust anyone easily.
“What about the Beatus estate?”
“The Gordon family has taken control of it. We couldn’t obtain any information regarding the youngest princess.”
“You also said all of Devir Beatus’s people have disappeared as well?”
“Yes.”
Secondly, his own movements had become severely restricted. He had been sending his subordinates beyond the palace walls to gather intelligence on his behalf.
‘All avenues have been blocked.’
His plan to leave the palace had been thwarted before it even began—due to the Crown Prince’s interference. Of all people, they’d assigned a mage to watch over him.
Was this their way of saying, “Go ahead and struggle if you dare,” only to monitor him like this? Raid’s expression darkened. Under these circumstances, using magic openly would be nearly impossible.
The Crown Prince hadn’t noticed Raid’s magical abilities. But then again, who in the palace even suspected that the prince was concealing his power?
With his dark brown hair and pale golden eyes, he stepped out of the palace and began walking.
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?”

I’m so glad Vanessa was able to stab the evil dragon prince! But someone needs to save her ASAP! Where is Calpher?!?
So the Emperor was an evil man who forced himself on a woman relentlessly. The empress was a victim who then became evil to get revenge. The crown prince was a innocent victim that got sacrificed and then possessed by the evil dragon. The Imperial family needs to be replaced. I don’t even know if Raid will be a good Emperor or not.
I’m glad Vanessa is staying strong! Now I just need Calpher to come save her!YES! My man Calpher is fantastic. It’s hilarious how brazen he is about her being his woman but then he gets all flustered when she needed him to help unbutton the dress! I hope Vanessa falls for him soon!

While she was lost in grief, the Emperor took her every day.
Wow. Evil Emperor. Forcing himself on a woman who doesn’t want him and who’s lover was killed by him. I feel bad for the empress but also don’t. Because she chose to do evil things in the end.
His rough hand tilted her head to help her swallow, and gulp—Vanessa had no choi
🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴 Man. I love Calpher. 🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭🤭
“Aren’t you happy to see me?”
Mwahahahaha!!!!! Yes Calpher! I am VERY happy to see you! 😆

I hope Vanessa is just pretending and isn’t actually being controlled.
