    This one! Divorce Regret! A brutally honest story that turns satisfying and cathartic! A classic "wife-chasing-after-the-crime" trope, a female-centric, cathartic novel. The female lead suffers terribly at first, then the male lead suffers terribly later, leaving him filled with remorse. The writing is concise and fast-paced, brutally cruel, and incredibly satisfying. Hope you like it!

    "Everyone says he's a holy Buddhist disciple fallen into the mortal world," the male lead's "white-clad, black-hearted, yandere, and powerful minister" persona is incredibly captivating. On the surface, he's a holy Buddhist disciple and a gentle husband, but in reality, he's a complex character with a strong desire for control, willing to do anything to achieve his goals, and gradually succumbing to his emotions. The contrast between his outward appearance and his yandere tendencies is striking. The female lead is a resilient "delicate flower," physically frail but possessing the courage to rebel. She flees, he pursues, and she understands she's merely a pawn in his game of power and emotion. She chooses an extreme method to break free. She grows and matures amidst her entanglement with the male lead.
