Wishing for Salvation (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 48
The things Kang Hyun had been fond of as a child were all broken beyond repair.
Like tropical fish that had spent a long time with him in childhood but died meaninglessly after losing their home.
It happened frequently—items shattered so badly they could never be used again.
His cousins, finding Kang Hyun nearly devoid of emotional expression, would helplessly titter among themselves, placing bets on who could make Tae Kang Hyun angry.
Since their grandfather—the de facto power behind Seo Won Group—led the way in treating him as an irredeemable lunatic, they felt no need to mind the adults and freely hid or ruined Kang Hyun’s belongings just to provoke him.
Ironically, they only obtained the result of their bet at the very moment they could no longer place such bets.
“You? The one Kang Hyun picked up outside?”
“Who are you?”
“We? We’re Kang Hyun’s cousins.”
Tae Seok Joong brought Seo Yoon from the orphanage after his father, Tae Young Il, passed away.
As the eldest son and already acknowledged for his managerial competence, he naturally inherited everything—and immediately purged every troublesome relative from key positions the moment he seized power.
Only Tae Seok Gyu, who remained unmarried and thus lacked in-laws to bolster his influence, was left at the parent company, Seo Han Electronics.
He was laying early groundwork to eventually hand everything over to Kang Hyun, who had long been burdened with unsavory rumors even before reaching adulthood.
Those who used to wear down Seo Won’s doorstep trying to win Tae Young Il’s favor now found themselves barred from ever stepping foot in the Seo Won household except during ancestral rites or holidays—and Kang Hyun’s possessions ceased breaking altogether.
Just as that childish betting faded into forgotten history, Tae Young Il’s memorial ceremony rolled around, and cousins visiting Seo Won’s home after a long absence discovered a little girl tucked away in a corner like a sack of barley.

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
Love at first sight without realizing it, gradually falling in love, slowly getting closer…
Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!
