In times like this, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. If you act like a fox over there, I should do the same. It seems like they’re playing fox games over there too, but on this side, it’s a thousand-year-old Gumiho.

“I did it because I was angry. What woman wouldn’t be upset if another woman touched her man?”

Holding Chairman Kwon’s tie and gently patting his chest with a fist so as not to hurt, Yeonhwa spoke with a tearful tone.

“I hope you treat me like a hen guarding her chicks, whether I meet another woman or not.”

“Well, that’s true. Without jealousy, a woman is as good as dead.”

Chairman Kwon’s mouth, touched by Yeonhwa’s cute antics, widened into a smile.

Believing sincerely that even women in their sixties are dying and not living well because they are still fussy about each other over men, what a fool.
Suppressing the desire to tear open his gaping mouth, Yeonhwa cast an resentful glance as if she had endured something unpleasant.

“But this time, you went too far. How could you arrange a house and even do housekeeping?”

“No, I didn’t even buy the house; it’s just a monthly rent, a monthly rent. A deposit of 100 million and a monthly rent of a few hundred.”

“Really?”

“Then, if you check the land register, it’ll come out right away. Why would I lie to our Yeonhwa?”

Making a firm commitment, Chairman Kwon asked his wife.

“If I knew our daughter-in-law would be so hurt like this, I wouldn’t have done it even if I wanted to.”

If the word ‘concubine’ is what Yeonhwa hates most in the world, on the contrary, her favorite word is ‘our daughter-in-law.’ Add the word ‘monthly rent,’ and her mind was somewhat relieved. Even though her heart goes where money goes, it means that she is still a woman who is not worth much.

“A handsome man like you, what can you do when women approach you outside? Just don’t make it too obvious. Rumors spread behind your back. We have grown-up children, and it’s embarrassing.”

Yeonhwa didn’t deliberately suggest a breakup. Forcing a separation would only make things worse. Is there anything to make Romeo and Juliet?

“Okay, don’t worry. I was going to tidy up anyway because the kid is a bit noisy.”

At the chairman’s words that he would tidy up, Yeonhwa finally relaxed and hugged him.

“If you ever get distracted again, I’ll scold you. Hmph.”

Mixing in a nasal tone while pretending to be cute.

“It’s really hard to have dinner with you, Senior.”

Even though they gathered enough merits, they were barely able to make a reservation at the fine dining restaurant, but Yoon Eun-seo, with a pale face, did not lift the cutlery and just sat there.

For Seunghyun, it was an unusually delicious meal he had rarely encountered in his lifetime. How can everything taste so delicious?

“But isn’t it a bit inappropriate? Even if you’re mentally an adult, doing such things when you’re a minor, isn’t that too much?”

“……!”

“No, do I feel more excited because I feel like there’s some kind of dirty feeling?”

Seunghyun joyfully watched as her face, which had been so pale, gradually turned red from her delicate neck to her face. He didn’t expect her to lie to this extent.

After a while, Eun-seo finally spoke with a voice that seemed drowsy.

“It’s not like that.”

“Ah, but you’re an adult physically, right? Living in the same house?”

As if expressing disbelief, Seunghyun suddenly remembered.

That day, when they met at the bus stop and walked home together, they didn’t even hold hands, let alone a fist bump.

Despite looking at the woman with such lovely eyes, he remembered that they walked while keeping a distance from each other.

“Pfft!”

When he realized it wasn’t a lie, laughter burst out.

What’s this, these fools. Are they serious?

“Ah, it’s amusing. Even if it’s for Yoon Senior, but my brother, such a romantic person.”
Eunseo tightly bit her pretty lips until they turned pale. Suppressing the desire to rush over and bite them for her, Seunghyun put a piece of hanwoo sirloin in his mouth and chewed slowly.

“Curious, aren’t you? How much do I know.”

Eunseo didn’t deny it.

“In truth, I don’t know much. It’s just that you two are living together in the house where my brother used to live, and my brother suffered amnesia due to a traffic accident, becoming mentally underage… Well, that’s about it?”

Eunseo closed her eyes. Despair was vividly written on her small and pretty face. It was as if the letters saying, “Caught you,” were floating around.

After a while, when Eunseo finally opened her eyes, she suddenly asked.

“So, what do you want from me?”

“Hmm?”

“I could immediately rush to the chairman, report everything, and get my brother kicked out of the company, but you’re not doing that. So, there must be something else you want.”

Seunghyun admired her. I thought she was just pretty, but she’s quite smart too. She seemed to have some understanding of why his brother was living such a difficult life.

“I hope your purpose isn’t just to sit here and mock me. Don’t beat around the bush; tell me what you want.”

It’s good when people speak quickly. Being cheeky is somewhat charming.

Seunghyun put down his fork, wiped his lips with a napkin, and, like staring at an enemy’s parents, adjusted his posture, gazing at the fierce-looking woman. He spoke in a serious tone.

“Meet me.”

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?”
