After washing up, Jeongyeoreum headed towards the living room. Due to the broken boiler, only cold water came out, so she barely managed to wash her face. Fortunately, the bag given by Manager An contained new clothes and underwear. Waking up hungry, she remembered that she hadn’t eaten all day yesterday.
“Ah?”
There was a large dining table. Seated at the head was Juwha, and inevitably, Gitaek’s family was there. Behind them stood the housekeeper and Manager Pyo, who she had bumped into earlier, along with other employees.
The room, adorned with elegant furniture and just the dining table, was clearly the dining room. They were having breakfast, seated at the grand and beautiful table with refined expressions.
Then, Juwha’s cold gaze fell on Jeongyeoreum.
Internally wanting to curse, she knew this was Juwha’s kingdom.
‘I’ll really give a piece of my mind to that hateful old lady.’
Jeongyeoreum put on a brave face and announced loudly,
“Good morning! Did everyone sleep well?”
Her booming voice made Juwha’s brows furrow slightly. Gitaek’s family also scowled.

“Wow, such an elaborate menu. It must be delicious.”
There was an empty chair at the table. As Jeongyeoreum moved towards it, Juwha said,
“About your house…”
Jeongyeoreum stopped pulling the chair and looked back at her.
“I ordered it to be cleared out.”
“…What?”
“Your parents will be away for a long time, and you have no need to go down there. That’s why I instructed it to be cleared out. Just so you know.”
“Who decided that!”
Jeongyeoreum shouted indignantly.
‘I can’t even pretend to be nice to this old lady!’

“Don’t you dare touch our house, do you understand?”
“What, a finger?”
Juwha’s voice rose slightly.
Gitaek’s family quietly put down their utensils, but they seemed somewhat amused by the scene.
Jeongyeoreum, however, was more focused on confronting Juwha.
“Yes, a finger! Don’t drool over our house!”
“Now you dare say ‘drool’? Do I look like someone who would covet such a shabby house?”
“Why are you meddling in someone else’s house?”
Despite Juwha’s incredulous expression, Jeongyeoreum stood her ground.
“That is our house. Our parents earned it with their sweat and blood! Not a penny of your money is in it! So, don’t touch it!”

Juwha’s expression turned icy.
“I wouldn’t want that shanty even if it was given to me. I’d rather burn it down.”
“What did you say?”
“If you don’t want it sorted out, fine. Do as you please.”
Juwha stood up, apparently having lost her appetite, and left the dining room. Then, Jungmi said,
“How dare you talk back to the chairman like that? You really show your upbringing. And just so you know, you don’t have a place here. From now on, eat with the maids. Got it?”
Manager Pyo looked at her with a mocking gaze. Angry, Jeongyeoreum walked out.
“Hey, look at me.”
It was Ha-eun who followed her.
“Come with me.”

Without responding, Jeongyeoreum followed her.
Curious about what Ha-eun had to say, Jeongyeoreum followed her into a space filled with numerous books. The storeroom resembled a library.
Turning around, Ha-eun said, “Delete that video immediately. And post an explanation that it was all a drama you made up.”
“Why should I?”
Ha-eun looked at her mockingly, “Are you really asking ‘why’?”
“Yeah.”
Astonished, Ha-eun ran her hand through her hair, “Don’t you understand the situation?”
“No, I understand it very well. You’re asking me to lie, right? Why should I?”
“You really can’t see the big picture, can you? You have to live in this house for 20 years. And you think you’ll be safe after upsetting me?”
“Yes, I think I’ll be safe.”
Enraged by Jeongyeoreum’s response, Ha-eun exploded, “You still don’t realize your place! You are now a maid in this house. I am the lady you should be serving! How dare you talk back! Listen to me while I’m being nice. Otherwise, I’ll show you what’s what!”

Watching the agitated Ha-eun, Jeongyeoreum said, “I’d like to see that.”
“What did you say?”
“But you better do well. Otherwise, Kang Ha-eun, you’ll be destroyed by me again.”
“What, what?”
Jeongyeoreum stepped forward.
Surprised, Ha-eun hastily retreated as Jeongyeoreum reached out her hand.
Grinning, Jeongyeoreum said, “Sneaking in here to scold me, it seems you’d be in trouble if this got out, huh?”
“Who, me? You should be the one worried!”
“I’ll handle my own worries. Now, can I leave? I haven’t eaten since yesterday and I’m hungry.”
“…Hey!”

At that moment, the storeroom door opened, and Jungmi entered.
“What are you two doing here?”
“Nothing,” Jeongyeoreum said, smiling and leaving.
“What’s going on?” Jungmi asked Ha-eun.
“It’s nothing. Just scolding her for being ill-mannered.”
Under Jungmi’s suspicious gaze, Ha-eun repeatedly denied any significant issue.
“Really, it’s nothing.”
“Why are you looking like that? This is going to be Jeongyeoreum’s spot from now on.”
A woman in her mid-thirties, with a face full of ridicule, said to Jeongyeoreum.
Over ten employees were already dining at the long wooden table in the kitchen.

My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
