The moment she bit his lower lip, their lips began to blend stickily.
From that moment on, the two of them momentarily forgot that it was a shoot.
After the most realistic kiss photo in the world was permanently preserved.
“The shoot… is over. Good job.”
“…”
“Excuse me? Groom, bride?”
The two of them felt somewhat regretful as they finished.
????????????
A few days later, at the Imperial Hospital.
Sori hurriedly walked down the hospital corridor to meet Hyunwoo. She couldn’t take off her mask and surgical cap and was running at full speed toward the research lab.

“Ah!”
“Ah!”
Turning around the corner of the building, she collided with someone, and it was quite a significant collision.
Due to the impact, the person dropped their bag on the ground.
“Where on earth are you looking…!”
Holding her shoulder and swallowing the pain, Sori picked up the bag that the person had dropped in place. It seemed to be a patient or guardian visiting the hospital.
“Are you okay?”
Sori, thinking it was her fault for rushing, handed over the handbag she picked up as an apology.
“I’m really sorry.”
“Hey, can you take off your mask?”

“Yes…!?”
The moment Sori saw the face of the person asking her to take off her mask, confusion crossed her mind. Unluckily, the person she collided with was Director Baek Sunhwa.
It was quite uncomfortable to meet Director Baek when neither of them could see each other. Baek Sunhwa seemed to be making a displeased face.
Sori lowered her mask, greeted her politely.
“…Hello.”
“Someone said it was Professor Yoo Sori.”
Just when she was going to meet a professor, she ran into Director Baek Sunhwa. Sori felt a bit nervous.
“If you do well in the hospital, you might break a bone or two.”
“…I’ll be more careful in the future.”
Accepting the handbag Sori was holding, Sunhwa, who seemed somewhat relaxed, asked with a somewhat loosened expression.

“Are you going to Professor Seo’s lab?”
“Yes?”
How did she know? Sori’s pupils wavered slightly, feeling momentarily embarrassed.
“Is that really true? Are you secretly dating in this hospital?”
“…No. No, we’re not.”
At that moment, Baek Sunhwa’s sharp eyes and awkward gaze intersected.
In fact, the words about being a soon-to-be-married couple who had even finished the wedding shoot were on the tip of her tongue, but she couldn’t say it.
However, the director’s office should be in the annex, so why is Baek Sunhwa in the main building? Could it be that she’s on her way after meeting Hyunwoo?
Simultaneously, suspicious thoughts arose, but for now, avoiding seemed like the best strategy. Sori lightly bowed her head and attempted to continue on her way.
“Well then, I’ll go first.”
“Wait, do you have a moment right now?”

“Me?”
“Is there anyone else here besides you?”
Her heart dropped to the floor. She wanted to avoid this person if possible.
“I’m sorry, but it’s still working hours.”
“There’s something Teacher Yoo Sori needs to know. Aren’t you curious?”
Something I need to know.
Do I really need to be curious?
“I’m sorry, but I’m still working…”
“It’ll only take 10 minutes. Come to the director’s office at 1 PM.”
Baek Sunhwa, who had thrown a one-sided invitation, walked away in the opposite direction.

Sori found herself reluctantly summoned to the director’s office.
Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!
――
This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”
