*Dry Story* FL Falls For Childish and Somewhat Dumb ML *Don't waste your time*

The story is about a FL who has a mission to disciple the ML. The ML has a prior and married lover that allegedly saved him from drowning, which is the basis of their relationship. It is revealed in the later episodes that is actually the FL who saved him. The ML attempts to divorce the FL with the help of the main female villain but ends up putting the FL in jail. The ML gradually falls in love with the FL but the FL has a mission in mind despite her love for him slowly becoming stronger. The ML quickly and no longer likes the female villain AKA prior lover. The issue is that the female is physically aggressive towards which is disguised under discipline. Their relationship is more like teacher x student. The male lead is clinging and doting however he is extremely childish, quickly jealous, destructive (of a fragrance from FL's best friend), and quickly gets mad at the Fl for marrying him to "discipline" him. While ML has the right to feel hurt since the FL was rather touchy with him. However, the ML is rather possessive and was the one at first to tell her that "she could not be his lover" which was the truth at the time and he had the right to disclose that. However, he put her in jail and did not think of the consequences of the ***serious*** accusation he made against her. Despite his intent of their marriage changing, he himself had different intentions at first as did she. However, they never mutually disclosed their relationship to be romantic although it was implied through their physical touch and it being predominately portrayed as a one-sided love. In the end the two end up together after the ML proves his love to her and they have a child. Overall, the leads lack chemistry and towards the end, the FL fails to portray the FL's emotions. The ML is a very flat character and can be simply described as childish. The story is rather bland, a bit comedic and has generally light tones. The story is not worth watching and is a waste of time. The story is quite ridiculous and the male lead is rather frustrating as well as the FL who just plays along and becomes rather dry towards the end.
