That was the incident in the past where he had impregnated an actress.
The night Yu Ri found out that she was Kang Tae Seo’s fiancée, she held a picture of young Tae Seo tightly in her hand and heard her mother and father arguing.
“Was that rumor true?”
“It doesn’t matter. It happened before I met you, and after all, you are the owner of Hyun Yang Construction.”
“So, there’s a child? What are we going to do about the child!”
“Considering Yoon Se Na’s personality, she won’t appear using the child as an excuse, so there’s no need to worry. Instead, you should focus on properly educating Yu Ri from now on. Do you think becoming inlaws with Kang Seon is a trivial matter? Manage her well so that Yu Ri doesn’t hang out with weird crowds.”
At a young age, she was captivated by the handsome Tae Seo in the picture and indulged in it.
Then, one day, when she was in middle school preparing for a gayageum competition, she came facetoface with a girl named Yoon Jae In who suddenly appeared.
At that moment, Yu Ri had a hunch that the arguments between her parents that started from her childhood were due to the pretty girl in front of her.
“What are you thinking about? You seem out of it.”
“Mom.”
“Yes.”
Yu Ri, who was getting a back massage, closed her eyes and turned towards her mother, Seung Hee, who was lying down.
“I think something is strange.”
“What is?”
“Do you know where and how Yoon Jae In is living now?”
“Why would you suddenly bring up that name?”
When Seung Hee gave a signal by getting up, the shop assistants who were nearby closed the door and disappeared. After confirming that only she and her daughter were left, Seung Hee furrowed her brows.
“How unlucky.”
“Look into it.”
“Why, all of a sudden.”
“I think Kang Tae Seo knows about Yoon Jae In.”
“How would Tae Seo know about her? He must have heard some old rumors from somewhere. And what’s with the ‘Kang Tae Seo’? Where is it customary to refer to your soontobe husband like that.”
Seung Hee grabbed her daughter’s wrist as she brought her newly manicured coralcolored nails to her lips again. Her frowning face was aged far beyond that of someone who had reached her sixtieth birthday.

“And what will you do once you know?”
Seung Hee, who lay down again, closed her eyes as if it wasn’t a big deal.
“She’s nothing. Just a girl with a somewhat mixedrace face. Probably living in hiding with her mother in the United States. You don’t need to worry about her.”
“But still….”
“You keep going on about that. If Tae Seo had any thoughts, he wouldn’t hang out with that kind of thing. Does it make sense that he would leave you for a bastard child?”
“That’s right, isn’t it, Mom?”
“Ask them to come back in and finish what they were doing. She’s unnecessarily upsetting.”
“Yes.”
When Yu Ri opened the door and beckoned, the two employees who had been waiting at a distance came back into the room. Yu Ri, who had finished her nail care, was about to lay down on the bed next to Seung Hee.
“It seems like you’re not meeting Tae Seo much?”
“I guess he’s busy.”
“He must be busy adjusting to life in Korea and working. Don’t be too hard on him. From what I hear, Tae Seo has lived alone overseas for a long time, so he might seem a bit brusque. Don’t feel hurt.”
“Yes.”
“Men usually don’t care about wedding preparations. So you should be the one to initiate the wedding preparations. We’ve had a long engagement period, there’s no point in delaying. I think autumn would be nice. Girl, call him now that you’re thinking about it.”
“Yes.”
It was unthinkable for the proud Yu Ri to contact a man first.
However, Yu Ri acknowledged that she had no choice but to make the first move. This was because she had fallen head over heels for Tae Seo when she first saw his picture at a young age.
Jo Yu Ri’s man, Kang Tae Seo, was such a radiant person. It was only natural for Yu Ri to decide to stake her life on a man as stunning and capable as him, who anyone would fall for.
Hence, her current anxiety might be due to having such a perfect man by her side.
“Yu Ri, your nails.”
“Ah, yes.”
She must have been biting her nails again without realizing it. It was when Yu Ri, feeling anxious at the prolonged call connection sound, gently bit her lip.
–This is Kang Tae Seo.
“It’s Jo Yu Ri.”
–Ah….?
The pleasure of hearing his low voice was fleeting. The man seemed surprised and remained silent for a moment.
Yu Ri wondered if Kang Tae Seo might not have known her number, but she soon dismissed the thought. When one is busy working, it’s possible to answer a call without checking the screen.
“Do you have time this evening? Let’s have dinner together. There’s something I want to discuss.”
–I am busy. I will be working overtime.
“Okay. I’ll let it slide since I contacted you out of the blue. But please keep Christmas Eve free. If you’re busy that day too, I will be upset.”
–What does my being busy on Christmas Eve have to do with Ms. Yu Ri?
“I am your fiancée, Mr. Tae Seo. Can’t I look forward to Christmas Eve? Let’s have dinner at a nice place.”

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.”
