Doha’s words caused Jin Chairman’s face to stiffen.
“Well, considering you brought reporters to the matchmaking meeting, it’s understandable what state ST Chemical is in.”
Jin Yu-hee chuckled lightly at Doha’s glance but continued to speak coldly.
“If you want to use me for business, you should follow the proper procedures.”
Jin Yu-hee, along with Jin Chairman and his wife, were scanned by Doha’s scornful smile, but none of them retorted.
“Don’t rush like roasting beans in a flash of lightning.”
Finally, Cha Hyun intervened.
“Director Cha Doha.”
Her voice was stern, but not quite reprimanding.
Doha, who smiled coldly at his aunt, looked back at Jin Yu-hee.

“Jin Yu-hee.”
Her pursed lips spoke volumes of her indignation.
He further prodded her pride.
“Just one meeting, and you’re eager to get engaged to me? Doesn’t it look desperate?”
Jin Yu-hee’s lips trembled slightly as she swallowed her rising anger, then calmly smiled.
“No.”
Seemingly a smart woman.
“We should follow the proper order. Step by step.”
Her assertive eyes were quickly interpreting Doha’s intentions.
“We’ll meet three times first. That should be okay for you, right, Cha Doha?”

Then she quickly settled the situation.
“So if we like each other, we’ll have the family introduction, followed by setting a date for the engagement ceremony.”
Her eyes sharply questioned him, as if to say, “Is this what you wanted?”
ST Group. ST Chemical and Jin Yu-hee.
It wasn’t time to separate them yet.
If they dared enter his game, they had to play their part, however small, before disappearing.
“Alright. Let’s do that.”
Doha nodded in agreement, looking quite satisfied as he slowly left the study.
Following him was Cha Hyun.
“That was a bit too much.”

Despite saying it was excessive, her voice sounded quite amused.
“Too much? Jin Chairman deserves it.”
“True. Daring to play stock games with Hanju, he deserves it.”
Jin Chairman had been incessantly buying Hanju Bio’s stocks anonymously. ST Chemical’s shares, too, were significantly owned by the owner’s family, including the anonymous holdings. Rumors of a marriage alliance between the two groups and the announcement of a new drug development MOU between Hanju Bio and ST Chemical would skyrocket the stock values of both companies.
Chairman Cha Ji-seop’s goal was to merge ST Chemical with Hanju Bio upon the marriage. Selling the stocks to Hanju then would earn the ST owner’s family a tremendous profit, more than enough to cover the recent accident caused by the eldest son of ST in the construction sector.
Knowing all this, Chairman Cha Ji-seop was quite the businessman for accepting the situation. He considered it better to bring the neuroscience research achievements of ST Chemical under these circumstances, using Doha for this purpose.
“Still, it’s pretty cute.”
Doha chuckled, causing Cha Hyun to bristle.
“Cute? Are you saying you’ll marry Jin Chairman’s daughter?”
Is that how it’s interpreted?
Doha stopped and looked down at Cha Hyun.
“Weren’t you the one who told me to do it?”
“Did I say that? I said once you reach the top of the pyramid, you can do whatever you want, whether it’s marriage or anything else.”
That was true.
She told him to climb to the top of the pyramid and get what he wanted. But did he really want anything that much? Well, he wanted something right now.
“Let’s see about that.”
Doha smiled again and looked around. What he desperately wanted should be waiting for him…
But it wasn’t there.
“Looking for Ms. Seo Ye-eun?”
In-woo, mentioning Ye-eun’s name, approached slowly. Today, too, he wore a mask on his face.
“She’s not here.”

But when he mentioned Seo Ye-eun’s name, his mask seemed to come off. Doha didn’t like that.
In-woo, looking at Doha intently, tilted his head.
“Did you see Seo Ye-eun?”
The fact that In-woo had looked at Seo Ye-eun with a man’s eyes, mask off, was somewhat displeasing.
For a moment, he even thought of Son Kyu-won.
It was disgusting how these guys, as if Seo Ye-eun were public property, were drooling over her in turn.
“She left a message saying she had to go first.”
In-woo, trying to maintain his gentlemanly dignity to the end, slowly relayed Ye-eun’s message.
“She had an urgent matter at home.”
The rest of the message was inaudible to Doha. A freshly arrived message was pounding at his chest.

Pulling out his phone from inside his suit, Doha checked the message from Ye-eun.
“Sorry, I think I will have to postpone the sixth axe swing. I’ll contact you. Seo Ye-eun.”
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
