The female lead is the male lead's secretary (basically his mistress). In the end, the male lead also experiences a "wife-chasing-after-the-cremation" story. 4️⃣ The male lead is purely, purely, purely sarcastic!

    I highly recommend this book. The male lead is jealous but doesn't know how to talk back. He's tricked by his grandfather into getting a fake marriage certificate with the female lead and then goes abroad. There aren't any mindless, abusive scenes that torment the female lead. If she's unhappy, she'll fight back, no matter who it is, whether it's the male lead or a supporting female character. The female lead is very clear-headed; when she learns the marriage certificate is fake, she decisively leaves. The male lead regrets his initial arrogance and begins a frantic search for her. When they meet again, the female lead has already registered her marriage with someone else. There are plenty of other people who will take the marriage certificate you don't want. The male lead essentially puts himself on the path to winning back his wife through his own actions. [You should think about it carefully.]
