“Assistant Director Moon Hyuk-joo is moving from group management to the affiliated company Myungjin Tour Development. It has been announced that he will be working in Jeju Island starting this month.”

Reading the article, Yeon-ji’s face darkened with confusion.

Moving from group management to an affiliate meant that something significant had happened, even if it was not clear what.

What kind of big mistake could he have made?

“Did he even fight with that grandmother Moon Yeong-ran?”

Yeon-ji tilted her head.

Even if they had fought, it didn’t make sense for Hyuk-joo to treat her like this. He was the sole heir of Myungjin Group.

“It’s really strange.”

Yeon-ji lifted her head and looked at the gallery building standing straight in front of her.
In the middle of the city, there was such a place.

Perhaps due to its high ground, the building stood grandiosely, showcasing its magnificence. Wide stretches of green grass were laid out, and well-maintained trees adorned various areas.

“Doing a hobby to this extent, impressive.”

Yeon-ji, with an admiring gaze, looked at the gallery landscape while letting out a somewhat drained laugh. In an instant, her humble life so far seemed to collapse, and she felt as if she were plummeting to the ground, underground.

“What an amazing grandmother.”

The face of Moon Yeong-ran, who always held her head high whenever she met her, came to Yeon-ji’s mind. She had thought of her as an arrogant and overbearing old woman, but upon coming here, her rudeness seemed somewhat understandable.

“If you have something like this, you can behave so arrogantly. Envious.”

Muttering quietly, Yeon-ji entered the gallery.

The interior was even more spectacular. Large paintings, larger than spreading both arms against the clean white-toned walls, adorned the space. In the center of a spacious exhibition hall, there was a statue depicting a man and a woman facing each other.

Yeon-ji stood still, halfway lost in thought for a while.

Suddenly, her gaze fell on a woman dressed in a neat black two-piece. She seemed to be a staff member.

The staff member was pointing to a painting while explaining something to a well-dressed elderly couple.

“Amazing…”

Yeon-ji stared through the staff member, starting to superimpose her own image on top.

Imagining herself working in this wonderful gallery, where visitors would marvel, made her heart flutter.

“Maybe I can become the owner here later.”

That thought crossed her mind.

If she could go back to the way things were with Hyuk-joo, it was possible. Wasn’t the position of a gallery manager usually held by the owner?

The eyes of Yeon-ji, who had questioned Hyuk-joo’s suddenly changed behavior, sparkled with anticipation.

She took several photos of herself against the backdrop of the exhibition hall. Choosing the ones that came out nicely, she uploaded the pictures on social media with the gallery’s name as a hashtag.

Tomorrow, she planned to shoot a short video in the grassy yard she had seen when she entered.

She made sure to write down the gallery name and the upcoming exhibition until next month, and she posted it on social media.

“Gallery Manager Seo Yeon-ji, it suits you so well.”

Overwhelmed by excitement, Yeon-ji’s cheeks flushed with a rosy color.

Arriving in front of her house, Hyuk-joo got out of the car.

Having just finished a brief early dinner meeting, the sky facing the sea was colored with an orange sunset.

Accustomed to the dense forest of buildings, he found the changing scenery at this time novel and fascinating.

Especially when looking at the sparsely scattered low-rise buildings around without obstructing the view, the usual anxious feeling eased into comfort.

“Not just because of the scenery.”

Hyuk-joo mumbled softly.
Finding peace of mind, Eun-soo played a significant role. Just having her by his side filled Hyuk-joo’s once-empty heart with a satisfying sensation.

I should go see Eun-soo soon.

Hastening his steps, the front door opened.

“Eun-soo.”

At the sound of Hyuk-joo’s call, Eun-soo formed a faint smile. She neatly adjusted her coat and approached Hyuk-joo.

“You’re here now?”

“Yeah. I was a bit late due to the resort remodeling meeting.”

“What about dinner?”

“I had something simple. How about you?”

“I ate. What time is it?”

Nodding at Eun-soo’s question, Hyuk-joo responded.

A somewhat awkward atmosphere lingered between the two. It felt like the peculiar ambiance of a couple who had just started dating.

After a brief silence, Eun-soo spoke again.

“I came out for a short walk.”

“Let’s walk together.”

Hyuk-joo approached Eun-soo’s side and held her hand tightly. The warmth transferred through his palm.

“What did you eat for dinner?”

“I had sea urchin seaweed soup, grilled black porgy, stir-fried fernbrake with perilla oil, and various other things.”

“How’s your appetite?”

“It was fine today.”

“That’s a relief.”

“It seems like you don’t want to make things difficult for me, like someone else does.”

In a teasing tone, Eun-soo’s words made Hyuk-joo gently touch her neck with his hand. In response, Eun-soo smiled faintly and asked.

“You’ll do well from now on?”

“I will.”

Hyuk-joo responded with a firm tone. At the same time, he squeezed the held hand firmly.

Suddenly, he felt that there should be no more secrets from Eun-soo. Due to being too reserved in their conversations, misunderstandings had accumulated between them. From now on, he wanted to talk openly, even if it was about what was happening around him.

About what was happening in his life lately.

“Today, I was a bit, no, quite shocked.”

“What happened?”

Perhaps because of the word ‘shock,’ Eun-soo’s eyes widened abruptly. Hyuk-joo usually didn’t use direct terms like ‘shock’ even in serious situations.

So when he mentioned that he was shocked, Eun-soo became worried.

Could it be that the resort remodeling meeting didn’t go as expected?

Eun-soo paused for a moment and gazed silently at Hyuk-joo’s face. Seeing her serious expression, Hyuk-joo carefully brushed aside her hair.

“I’ve been foolish all this time.”

Hyuk-joo chuckled wryly as he spoke.

“I didn’t properly verify things and believed that person’s words without questioning. Pretending to be impressive, my nose got broken.”

“What are you talking about?”

Seeing Hyuk-joo blaming himself to an extreme extent, Eun-soo found it perplexing.

“It’s about Seo Yeon-ji.”

“…”

As the name he didn’t want to hear came out of Hyuk-joo’s mouth, Eun-soo’s pupils chilled.

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?”
