“Incheon has arrived. Thanks to you, I slept well on the way here. See you tonight. I’ll go ahead and wait for you.”
Jae In opened the door to her dressing room after checking the message from Tae Seo. She remembered his words to dress comfortably, as usual, but that didn’t mean she could dress down completely.
She acknowledged the mix of nervousness and excitement about making a decision. This time, she planned to wear her cherished clothes. She wanted to meet Tae Seo as herself, Yoon Jae In.
And she wanted to tell him. About who she is. It was up to him to decide what happens when someone gets involved with her.
Even if she’s blamed, she thought that was the right thing to do. She hoped he would be less hurt.
“Even if this might be the last time.”
She knew Tae Seo could be angry for her intentional approach. It was a matter serious enough to end everything. So today could be the last day she meets him.
Caught between the conscience that urged her to spill everything and the stubbornness to do so for her purpose, she had struggled countless times. And the conclusion was to leave the choice to him.
Now she was more afraid of Tae Seo being disappointed and angry than the plan falling apart.
Jae In didn’t want to drift apart. From Tae Seo.
“What is this emotion?”
Sweeping away the spreading bitterness of regret, Jae In picked out her clothing. Despite trying to appear composed, the inevitable sense of guilt seeped through.
As Jae In left her home on time after getting ready, a security guard escorted her. There was a car sent by Tae Seo waiting in front of her house.
The shining sedan, different in both type and color from the one Jae In disliked last time, sparkled under the streetlights. Sitting on the seafoam green leather seats on her way to the Seon Art Center, her cheeks tingled with his thoughtful consideration.
Calming her fluttering heart, she forgot her complicated thoughts. As soon as the car stopped and the door opened, a large hand appeared before her eyes.
“Hello.”
She laughed at the sound of his pleasant voice. Lifting her head, she saw Tae Seo bending over, reaching out his hand to her.
Jae In didn’t hide her joyful smile, filled with excitement. She took his hand without hesitation and stepped out of the car.
“Hello, should I also say hello back?”
Tae Seo didn’t respond. He simply smiled at her gently, pulling her to his side.
“Have you been well?”
“Yes. And you, Tae Seo?”
“How do I look?”
“Like you’ve been well?”
Looking up at the handsome man, Jae In tilted her head.
“I took a mask pack from Manager Jang on the plane, hoping not to look tired. Seems like it worked.”
“Ah, you must be tired?”
Considering the long flight and the surely hectic business trip, it was clear his condition wouldn’t be perfect. Jae In remembered Tae Seo had made time for her despite his likely fatigue.
“I was tired. Now that I’ve met Jae In, I can’t even think of tiredness.”
Jae In put off her concern at his pleasing words. Under the lamplight stretching to the main building of the art center, she took in Tae Seo’s attire, who looked stylish and comfortable.
A black round knit over dark gray slacks, topped with a brown oversized coat, added a touch of softness. His natural hair covering the forehead was as charming as when he dressed formally.
“Seeing you like this feels new.”
Jae In’s eyes widened at Tae Seo’s comment that mirrored her own thoughts.
“That’s a compliment. But it seems our minds have met.”
“Ah…”
Jae In looked down at her own outfit, realizing they were similarly dressed. She wore a sleek black chiffon blouse, perfect black jeans that accentuated her legs, and a deep bronze coat.
“Like this, anyone would think we’re a couple.”
Jae In didn’t reply. She merely rolled her eyes teasingly at the playful Tae Seo and followed as he led.
Walking past the winter garden that felt a bit empty, they headed toward the art center building.
“I’ve prepared some wine.”
“Can we drink it here?”
“Let’s first look at the paintings. Behind the annex of the art center, there’s a greenhouse garden not open to the public. We’ll drink there.”
Jae In nodded in agreement. Yet, she had been curious about the large paper bag in his other hand, the one not holding hers, since a while ago.
“What’s that?”
“Oh, this.”
Tae Seo, with an embarrassed smile, looked down at the paper bag he was carrying.
“Bribery.”
“Bribery…?”
“It’s for you to look kindly upon me today.”
Standing at the entrance of the art center’s main building, he opened the paper bag to reveal a rather bulky gift box.
“Should I be nervous? Is it something incredibly expensive again?”
“Not at all. It’s not that expensive. I saw this in Chicago and wanted to give it to you, Jae In.”
What could the gift be that he brought back from his trip? Jae In thought about possible duty-free shop items as she gently untied the ribbon.
The red velvet ribbon came undone, and the lid of the pristine white box was opened. Simultaneously, Jae In’s head slowly tilted.
“What is… this?”
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?
Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?
Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.
The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.
Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
