“I’m exhausted.”
After school, I came home and collapsed onto my bed, staring at the ceiling.
“Why did it have to turn out like this?”
Not only Seon Woo-jin but also Seong Ji-chan.
Two massive bombs dropped on my peaceful extra life.
‘I wanted to change the original story, but not like this.’
My original plan was to operate quietly behind the scenes, not to get entangled so openly!
‘Wait, could this be the system’s trickery?’
I glared into thin air.
Then the system appeared in front of me.
“Really?”
[Yes! 〉ㅁ〈]Honestly, I found it hard to believe.
‘The same guy who sent those pictures to Yoo Hee-na could do anything.’
I completely ignored the system’s protests.
But I couldn’t just blame the system for everything.
‘Alright. Let’s think positively about this.’
I had to confront the characters at least once to change the original story.
I didn’t want to get this close, but…
I got up again.
Okay, let’s think about what to do next.
I immediately spoke to the system.
“Show me the quest window again.”
[Which one? ㅇ_ㅇ]“The very first one I saw.”
Then a square window popped up in front of me.
[MAIN QUEST] [〈Finding the Happy Ending〉] [Objective: Attend Jeil High School and turn the ending of ‘World Rank 0 Seol Yu-hwa, Pretending to Be a Bullied Twin Sister?!’ into a true happy ending. You might even create pleasant memories.] [Reward: Wish fulfillment]“‘A true happy ending,’ huh…”
I read and re-read the words on the quest window.
From the conversation I had on the first day I was possessed, it was clear that this ‘true happy ending’ meant a happy ending for everyone.
That meant I had to pay attention to all the characters. That’s a lot of work.
So, shouldn’t I just focus on the original villains, like Seol Yu-bin?
“Uh?”
Wait, I’ve just realized an opportunity I’ve been missing.
Unintentionally, but somehow, I ended up being in the same space as Seol Yu-bin every day.
‘It’s more natural to approach her in the health room than suddenly going to her class.’
It seemed things were going to be easier than expected.
Of course, even being in the same health room, it won’t be easy to approach her…
‘Let’s figure out how to approach her later.’
I dismissed the quest window and lay back down.
‘I’ll have to visit the health room more often.’
That way, I might increase my chances of running into Seol Yu-bin.
Okay, it’s humiliating to keep doing Seon Woo-jin’s homework, but… I’ll use it as an excuse to attend the health room every day.
I clenched my fist and resolved.
The next day.
Before entering the health room, I stood at the door and thought for a moment.
‘But how should I really treat them?’
Seol Yu-bin is one thing, but I don’t know how to interact with Seong Ji-chan and Seon Woo-jin.
I would have kept my distance as originally planned, but…
No, let’s think differently.
Who knows what corner this harsh ‘inso’ (unrealistic, dramatic) world will drive me into next?
In the inso world, spectacular events often happen.
Like the kidnapping incident last time. If I keep making waves in this world, searching for a happy ending, I’ll surely get entangled in another strange event someday.
But if I build a rapport with the ‘samdaeboi’ (three main guys) now?
Maybe they’d come to save me out of pity, just like they did for Yoo Hee-na that day.
‘…….’
Alright, from today on, I’m the best friend of the samdaeboi!
With that resolution, I opened the door to the health room and cheerfully shouted.
“Hey guys, hello!”
However, there was no response.
‘Has no one arrived yet?’
It wasn’t unusual for me to arrive before Seon Woo-jin, so the absence of others in the health room wasn’t particularly strange.
Maybe they’re late today. Did something happen…?
Worried, I walked towards my usual spot in the health room.
And soon, I found them.
Seon Woo-jin, as usual, nonchalantly playing with his game console, and Seong Ji-chan, pretending not to hear and lying on the bed.
Those rascals…
Several days passed.
During that time, I diligently did Seon Woo-jin’s homework every lunchtime and observed the characters from the original story.
And I discovered something really surprising.
Seong Ji-chan was surprisingly normal.
‘What? He’s just a regular guy?’
Listening to his conversations, he even used more normal language than Seon Woo-jin.
He even earnestly told Seon Woo-jin, who skipped classes every day, to attend lessons like a student.
As I observed this normal behavior of Seong Ji-chan, I became curious.
‘Why was he acting so weird that day?’
The impression from the day when the thugs from Haeseong High School came was so strong that I had thought he was a weirdo, but these days, he’s only been showing his sane side, which confused me.
‘What’s his real personality?’
But that question was soon answered.
“Cook…”
On the day another gang challenged him.
“I have to show them. My true. Power.”
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?”
