They had even changed the discharge date to prepare for the reporters, but somehow, the hospital entrance had been crowded with reporters hours before the discharge, and information had leaked.
“Still, it was fortunate that Wooseong sent people.”
At Cheolyeong’s words, Kanghyun chuckled. He knew that Seojiman, not to mention his father, Chairman Cha, was trying to benefit from the popularity of Teacher Yun, who had become a national icon.
“Kanghyun, I can’t breathe.”
“Oh, right.”
Until then, Kanghyun had been holding Yun tightly in his arms. He finally let her go.
“But is Gyunghwa Unni really okay?”
Gyunghwa suffered a major injury with a broken tooth and some signs of a slight concussion, but luckily, she recovered significantly in just a few days.
“Martial arts, boxing, all the things I learned were useless. The weight class was different, and he was completely insane. Ugh, I just got beaten unilaterally. It was irritating; I felt like going crazy. I should have given him a few punches too. Ugh!”
Gyunghwa, even while talking, threw punches into the air and kicked. Even in her sleep, she seemed to grind her teeth, and it seemed like she had a serious mental disorder, worrying Cheolyeong and Mujin.
“I saw her yesterday, and she’s much better. Don’t worry too much.”
“…Yes.”
Yun wasn’t in a good mood when she thought about Gyunghwa.
“Sister will be fine. She’s a very brave person.”
Patting Yun’s back as she sighed, Kanghyun spoke.
Ring!
Kanghyun’s phone rang. It was Seojiman’s call. Kanghyun pressed the end button without answering. After Yun sued Yujin for assault, he repeatedly made harassing phone calls while trying to settle, using the agreement.
Yujin was reported for assault, and he was under investigation without detention. Additionally, he was sued by Yun and Gyunghwa for damages in a civil lawsuit.
However, despite causing a scene in the hospital, no news articles were published. Nevertheless, Kanghyun didn’t care.
“Please wait a moment. I’ll meet you soon.”
There is no agreement. They will definitely hold him accountable for the civil and criminal responsibilities for assault. Kanghyun gritted his teeth.
Even though Gyunghwa had been going to a martial arts gym with Cheolyeong for a long time and had good sports nerves, she suffered severe injuries from Yujin, who was apparently insane. Just thinking about how young Yun handled such a fierce Yujin in her childhood was horrifying.
Therefore, Kanghyun couldn’t forgive Seojiman even more.
After a while, the car entered the parking lot of Chairman Cha’s mansion in Hannam-dong. The two got out of the car and headed to the detached house.
They hadn’t used this place for a while, so Kanghyun was worried, but it had been renovated with new interior, making it so neat that he couldn’t recognize it.
The entrance and overall tone were white, giving a bright feeling. The high ceiling and large window made the place feel spacious.
The warm sunlight pouring in through the large window filled the house, and the beautiful scenery of the garden was visible at a glance.
With two large trees right in front of the living room window, it felt like being in a forest.
After enduring the freezing cold for several days, today’s weather turned warm. Yun, as if drawn, approached the window and opened the door.
Upon opening the French window and stepping outside, there was a wide deck right in front, equipped with an outdoor table. It was possible to have a simple garden party with the family.
“Wow!”
Yun exclaimed.
“Do you like it?”
“Yes, I love it.”
Under the brightly shining sunlight, Yun sparkled.
“You did well coming in here.”
For the first time in almost a month, Yun’s face was lively after leaving the hospital.
“If I study here, I think I’ll study well.”
“Study?”
“When the weather gets warmer, it would be nice to read books here. Anyway, I can’t take the civil service exam this time. The exam is this week.”
Seeing Kanghyun’s expression stiffen at the mention of studying, Yun quickly added, “Yeah, take your time with your studies.”
“Yes.”
Ring!
The doorbell rang, and the lady of the house entered.
“Madam, welcome.”
Kanghyun greeted the lady warmly.
“Chairman Cha, thank you for your hard work.”
Although the lady of the house was an employee of this house, she had been by Kanghyun’s side since childhood, and Kanghyun considered her like family.
“Madam, are you okay now?”
The lady of the house approached Yun with a worried expression.
“Yes, I’m fine. Thank you.”
Yun smiled brightly at the lady of the house.
“I don’t know how relieved I am that Madam is safe. Hoo, I wonder how much our Chairman Cha has been worried about you.”
The lady of the house’s eyes became moist.
“Please lower your voice.”
Kanghyun’s aunt, an aunt-like figure to him, and close to his age, spoke kindly to Yun, making her uncomfortable.
“I will do so. Please rest a bit and come over for dinner. I’ll go now.”
“Yes.”
A family dinner to celebrate Yun’s discharge was scheduled for the evening.
“Aren’t you tired?”
Kanghyun expressed concern. She had just been discharged, and he wondered what kind of dinner they planned.
If Kanghyun had known earlier, he would have declined right away, but Chairman Cha had contacted Yun before he could do so.
‘That cunning Chairman Cha!’
Kanghyun grumbled inwardly.
“It’s okay. Now that I’ve been discharged, I should greet Father.”
“Yeah, just sit and rest for a while, then get up right away.”
“Yes. Is that the kitchen over there?”
Yun still wanted to explore the house. Kanghyun followed her.
“The kitchen is not too big, just right.”
With a convenient 11-character layout and clean, all-white-toned built-in appliances, it looked neat.
“Better than our apartment?”
“Well, it seems a bit better.”
Hesitating, Yun nodded.
Kanghyun’s apartment was too spacious, almost scary when he was alone. Yun, who had spent many days alone because Kanghyun was busy, found that house burdensome.
“Then shall we move to a smaller house next time?”
“It might be uncomfortable for you.”
“If you like it, then it’s fine.”
“Let’s think about that later.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
Yun chuckled at Kanghyun’s reply.
“Now I need to wash up. Since I’m home today, I’ll wash you.”
“It’s okay to do it by myself.”
Yun had stubbornly insisted that Kanghyun help her wash even in the hospital, and there had been several compromises.
“But you still need to be careful. I’ll help you.”
“It’s okay.”
“You might fall. Just thinking about it is too horrible.”
Kanghyun shivered at the thought of Yun falling in the bathroom. Kanghyun’s concern for Yun after the accident was almost obsessive.
“Just staying in the hospital a bit longer would have been better. If something happens, you can get treatment right away.”
“Mr. Kanghyun, having a healthy person like me occupy a hospital bed is a burden. And I won’t fall, so don’t worry.”
“No, you still sometimes say you feel dizzy. It’s not good. I think being alone is too dangerous for you.”
Kanghyun shook his head.
“Then, you can stay in front of the bathroom.”
“Well, should I leave the door slightly open while you shower?”
“Okay.”
After barely extracting a compromise, Yun went into the bathroom.
“Yun, be careful.”
“Yes.”
Yun understood that he was worried about her, but as time passed, his concern became overwhelming.
“You’ll gradually get better.”
Yun pressed the shower button. However, suddenly, water poured down from above.
“Ah!”
“Yun!”
Startled by Yun’s scream, Kanghyun swung the bathroom door wide open.
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?”
