“Where is there to acknowledge? If it’s your child, it’s my great-grandson.”
“Then acknowledge Taehui like me.”
“What, what? No, why should I!”
At this age, to me? Feeling really puzzled, Heegu burst out.
“Taehui kept both promises with Grandfather. Then Grandfather should show respect for that. Where do you think you can get a great-grandson.”
“Hehe, right.”
But it didn’t feel bad.
Thinking about it, the wish he earnestly hoped for had all come true.
He worried that the grandson would live alone and lonely and die. It always bothered him that there would be no one by his grandson’s side when he died.
Now, such a grandson is in love, married, and will have a child. Moreover, he said he would be the next heir of the western gate.
So for Heegu, even if he dies now, it’s more than enough.
Seeing it this way, Min Taehui had to thank Heegu for the great-grandson.
Still, it’s embarrassing to think that he’s a grandfather who feels so small after being a grandson-in-law who dislikes his gender.
Even so, Sajun said casually without taking his eyes off Heegu.
“See, even the words that Min Taehui is pretty just by breathing are pretty, right? So Grandfather should give us a house. I want to live close to Grandfather because Taehui wants to get along well with Grandfather.”
Heegu’s face suddenly brightened.
Although he might be hated. It felt like becoming a narrow-minded person.
While not taking his eyes off Heegu, Sajun said nonchalantly.
“Look, even if Min Taehui just breathes, isn’t it pretty to say that? So give us a house, Grandfather. I’ll follow Grandfather to the hospital as much as Grandfather finds it annoying.”
Recently, the frequency of visits to the hospital has increased, and even Dr. Oh, the attending physician, often makes house calls. Everything was being reported to Sajun.
His grandson, who was awkward in expressing emotions, was turning and turning his concerns towards him.
Feeling unnecessarily embarrassed, Heegu poked him.
“Hey, did you leave the house to me?”
“Then did Grandfather leave me the great-grandson?”
Hehe, right. Heegu, who ended up laughing, decided to admit cleanly.
“Okay, you tell him once. How should I gain recognition from Taehui?”
At Heegu’s words, Sajun opened his mouth as if he had been waiting.
It was the first time since he was born. His grandson talked so much and so long for the first time.
Even so, Heegu listened seriously.
In the midst of listening, he was so stunned that he slammed his hand on the writing desk.
Having finished all the stories, Sajun spoke to Heegu with a calm expression.
“So, Grandfather, meet Min Seontae and get back that house and land.”
“Why should I do it instead of you?”
“I feel like he might cause trouble if he sees Grandfather’s face. Will Grandfather handle it?”
For a businessman, the image was as vital as for an entertainer. The owner’s image was the future of the company.
So, it wasn’t good for the grandson who would be the next leader of the western gate to get involved in a violent fight.
But admitting it meant that he had to take care of personal matters. Heegu was reluctant.
When Heegu didn’t answer readily, Sajun grinned arrogantly as if he had expected it.
“If Grandfather resolves that issue, I’ll propose to Taehui.”
“…….?”
“Will Grandfather not hurry to marry his precious grandson?”
In the end, Heegu answered that he understood.
While cursing the annoying guy inwardly.
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?”
