[Full] The Villain Found Out This is a Novel (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 76
Knowing that surrender meant certain death, the chancellor refused to yield peacefully, even forging a blood pact with a demon to stand against Blake.
Sikar, who had originally expected the battle to end quickly, was forced to fight for over five years against an army of monsters far larger than anticipated.
This time, since they’ve read my memories, the battle won’t last as long as it did in the original story—but even so, peace likely won’t come swiftly.
It might take one year, or two. Or maybe, just like in the original, it’ll drag on for five years—there was no way to tell.
Sikar excluded Vika from the campaign out of concern for our safety. Leaving me, with no special abilities at all, and young Kian alone in this vast ducal mansion must have weighed heavily on his mind.
Vika handed me the mansion’s key ring and said,
“The Duke instructed me to pass this to you, saying that from now on, you, my lady, are to oversee the entire estate.”
As she spoke those words, Vika looked somehow relieved.
“Oh, and this is the key to the vault. Inside are jewels, gold, and various precious metals—he said you may use them as you please, so you won’t feel downhearted in his absence.”
I took the keys and replied,
“Feeling downhearted… I wonder why the Duke would think that. I’m not downhearted at all.”
But Vika scratched her cheek, clearly unconvinced by my words.
“Your eyes are drooping at the corners, your gaze is unfocused, and there’s no light in your pupils—you definitely seem downhearted to me.”
From Valije’s death to the Duke’s departure for war—my heart truly was heavy from this string of sudden, consecutive events.
Perhaps it was also because I’d unconsciously relied so much on Sikar all this time.

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!

Germy gave a brief greeting to Yura, then turned to me with wide, startled eyes.
There’s a lot of mistakes in this chapter. They keep saying Yura when it should actually be Seo Yeon.

I’m glad we had a timeskip. Though I’m curious how the grandmother is doing these past 3 years.
They’ve only kissed once, and it was 3 years ago, so it’s time for more physical affection between these two!
Look at how much Sikar has grown! He cares for more than just Yura and Kian now!
