How pathetic the woman’s life is.
The saying that her harsh fate is due to her beauty.
And those inexplicable words about him breaking her jinx.
Isn’t she a funny woman?
“What did he break?”
Doha murmured to himself, causing Lee Han to stop his explanation.
“Why? What’s wrong with my explanation?”
Doha frowned at Lee Han.
Damn it.
More than her sad eyes, the woman’s wistful voice clings to his ears and won’t let go.

“I can’t concentrate. Let’s move.”
Doha signaled a waiter to change their seats and abruptly stood up.
An inexplicable irritation buzzed at the back of his neck.
As he walked away, voices comforting the woman faintly dispersed behind him.
“Right. Once all the debt is paid off, quit this job. Live doing what you want to do. Travel, date, all those things you’ve missed.”
Travel, dating.
Is that what she really wanted?
It’s not just funny, but now it’s trivial too.
A cold snort escaped him.
Following Doha, Lee Han finally spoke up.

“Who is she?”
“Chahyun’s spy.”
Doha answered indifferently and sat down, seemingly uninterested.
Without the woman’s voice in his ears, he could finally breathe.
“An aunt’s spy?”
Lee Han, looking confused, tried to catch a glimpse of the woman and sighed regretfully.
“Pretty, but a spy. That’s unfortunate.”
“Prettiness, huh.”
Thinking of the woman, Doha snorted.
“She’s just a funny woman.”

She’s willingly becoming Chahyun’s pawn, trying to save her cornered life by striking at him ten times with her blunt blade.
Doha bitterly smiled and filled his glass with ice.
“Living a pathetic life, Seo Yeeun.”
It seems like it’s going to get even more pathetic.
“Let’s continue the conversation.”
Doha looked at Lee Han, trying to divert his attention from the woman.
Lee Han resumed his report.
“Druid Nine has agreed to transfer the patent rights to us. In exchange, they want two seats on the board. They developed it and want to enjoy the success with us…”
Lee Han’s words continued for a while.
“With this, our investment returns exceed 700%. It’s a total jackpot.”
A total jackpot.
Just as Lee Han said, it’s a complete success.
If converted, the money invested in Druid Nine could cover a major subsidiary of the Hanju Group.
Doha’s lips tilted slightly.
Then, suddenly.
“Huh?”
Lee Han’s eyes widened.
“Isn’t that Son Kyu-won?”
Son Kyu-won?
That psycho actor?

“Is that guy hitting on Chahyun’s spy?”
Doha’s head involuntarily turned.
“Babe.”
Slamming down a bottle of alcohol on the table, the man was Son Kyu-won, clearly drunk.
“Didn’t expect to see my babe in a place like this.”
Son Kyu-won.
With his sensual body and innocent face, he had a large female fanbase, becoming a more successful actor in his mid-30s.
Even Son Kyu-won had a critical moment when he almost fell from grace.
It started with a domestic violence issue during a breakup with his non-celebrity girlfriend.
It turned out he was juggling multiple relationships, and one of them had an abortion, which caused a huge scandal.

His private life was exposed during the mud-slinging, ruining his image completely.
The ‘sunshine boy’ image promoted by his agency was shattered.
His image laundering was then handled by Persona.
Her trainer was Yeeun, and she lifted him from the mud and placed him back on a throne much grander and more resplendent than before.
That part was good.
The problem was that, unable to change his old habits, Son Kyu-won eyed Yeeun throughout his training.
Eventually, unable to bear it, Yeeun turned his agency upside down, and with the agency president’s mediation, they concluded the training without any penalty.
In short, the relationship between the two was one of the worst.
So it wasn’t a matter of being happy to see him again.
“Good to see you again, let’s have a drink, Seo Yeeun.”
The way her disgusting opponent chuckled, reeking of alcohol, made her nauseous.

“Forget it…”
But before she could finish, Son Kyu-won filled her glass to overflowing.
The amber liquid spilled over the glass, drenching the table.
After completely soaking the table, Son Kyu-won straightened the bottle and chuckled.
“I must have drunk too much. I remember Seo Yeeun suddenly appearing in the company lobby and calling me a pervert…”
Yeeun snorted, recalling the same memory.
Son Kyu-won is indeed a pervert.
Calling a pervert a pervert, what about it?
“Be grateful. I wanted to shout it in the broadcasting station lobby, but I spared you because I didn’t want to waste the image I created for you.”
She had transformed him from the ‘sunshine boy’ into the epitome of a fatal man.

She turned his rough ‘thug’ image into an adrenaline-fueled ‘macho man’, and instead of the ‘first love oppa’, she framed him as the ‘sexy office boss’.
That’s how he earned the title of Soomseknam, meaning a man who breathes sexiness.
The problem was that Son Kyu-won thought he was genuinely sexy.
He disgustingly pursued her, thinking the image she created was his true self.
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
