“What? So, he took the money and fled abroad?”
“He didn’t take it, Hyun Seo.”
“…What?”
“I don’t know where you heard this, but I wanted to give it, but Hyun Seo returned it. It’s been a few months since this happened.”
Young Suk finally closed her mouth at her son’s firm reply and blinked a few times. Hye Mi, who was standing next to her, was also taken aback and covered her wideopen mouth with her hand.

“Oh dear. What should we do…”
She couldn’t hide her embarrassment in front of her motherinlaw, realizing that she had been out of the loop.

“Hmm. Well, he had some conscience after all. That’s how it should be when you have nothing, then. How dare he…”
“Mother. He’s gone now, please stop.”
Do Ha sternly looked at Young Suk with wide eyes.

“It wasn’t that I didn’t trust you, Mother. If you cared about your son’s happiness, you shouldn’t have done that.”
“What did you say?”
“Honestly… Even though Hyun Seo wasn’t the daughter of a wealthy family, what else was he lacking besides money?”
Young Suk’s eyes widened at her son’s rebuke.

“Where in the world is there a daughterinlaw as good as her?”
“Are you praising your ex now?”
“Mother. You honestly agree too.”
Young Suk couldn’t argue with her son’s words, but she didn’t want to admit it.

“If it weren’t for him, your reputation would have improved long ago! If only you had married a daughter from a nobler family!”
“A daughter from a noble family? Who do you think could have lived in the same house with you, adjusting to your temperament as well as he did. Do you think the woman standing next to you, Hye Mi, could have done that?”
Young Suk and Hye Mi both hesitated. Hye Mi, glancing at Young Suk, quickly averted her gaze when their eyes met.

“I didn’t want to say this, but do you really not know that it’s you, Mother, who’s damaging the reputation of the owner, Jin Seong?”
“You, how could you say such a thing to your mother? Is this because you’ve been charmed by that foxlike Hyun Seo?”
“You won’t be able to find another woman as clever, intelligent, and talented as her.”
However, Young Suk raised her voice as if she was being wronged.

“Now you’re singing praises of the wife you abandoned? Praising her beauty!”
Do Ha stared at his mother with a hardened face, saying nothing.

“Please leave. I have work to do.”
With that, he lowered his head, sighing heavily as he returned to his desk.

“And if you have something to say, please contact me by phone. Don’t come to the office like this.”
“Ahh, all my sons are undutiful. Let’s go, Hye Mi.”
Even in her anger, Young Suk obediently left after confirming the fact that Hyun Seo had not taken the alimony.

Even after seeing the two off, Do Ha couldn’t sit in his chair for long.

There were stacks of items waiting for his approval, but he couldn’t concentrate on his work.

Eventually, he got up from his seat and walked over to the window made of clear glass.

Staring blankly out the window, even the clouds floating in the sky seemed dizzying.

He often looked down at the world below from this high place, but he couldn’t remember the last time he really saw the sky.

He had lived for too long, forgetting the sky and only looking down.

No matter how high one rises, one can never reach the sky.

The time he had run without knowing the height of the sky felt meaningless. Why had he become so empty?

“Where are you, Hyun Seo…”

He didn’t know where she had gone, but Do Ha did not want to give up on finding Hyun Seo.

No, he had to find her, even if it meant risking everything.

Her presence was as natural as breathing. Perhaps this is what they mean when they say that he had lived without knowing her preciousness because she was so obviously there.

It felt as if the earth he was relying on had sunk.

He didn’t know what to do with this gloomy feeling of floating in the void without a place to stand.

He would have to deal with the void left by our baby Seo Ha all by himself.

After losing Seo Ha, he felt like he had grown even more distant from Hyun Seo. Because every time the couple faced each other, the child who had left them came to mind.

Even though he knew that Hyun Seo was in pain as much as he was, he seemed to have avoided facing her directly.

Instead of pretending not to know each other’s sorrow, they should have shared it.

They shouldn’t have spent time apart abroad because being together was hard.

So it was only natural that she, who had lost a child and was disappointed in her husband, could not bear to stay in that house any longer.

Do Ha sat in his place for quite a long time and looked out the window for a long time.

Seeing Korean characters for the first time in a long time, something surged up from deep within him.

It had been three years.

His heart was strangely heavy with the Korean announcements echoing in Incheon Airport.

‘I didn’t expect to set foot on this land again three years after leaving without a plan.’
“Mom.”
Hyun Seo bowed her head towards the small angel baby calling her, pulling on her clothes.

“Yes, Do Hyun.”

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?”
