How could there be someone like him?

She was sharing the same space and time with him, yet he seemed like he belonged to a different dimension all by himself.

An indescribable aura emanated from his body.

“…Yeon-woo? Seo Yeon-woo?”

“Yes!”

Startled by the voice piercing her ears, Yeon-woo straightened up quickly.

She had been so lost in looking at the man that she missed the question directed at her.

The man chuckled.

“Must be sleepy. It’s tiring to come to Seoul for an interview.”

Her mind went dizzy. What had she been thinking about in the middle of the interview?

“If you’re going to sleep with your eyes open, better go home and sleep. Why waste time coming all the way here?”

“I’m sorry. I was just nervous. If you could ask the question again, please…”

“You did well.”

The man flipped her resume over as if he didn’t need to see it and pushed it aside.

Yeon-woo had no choice but to leave the interview room, feeling as if she had been chased out.

‘I must have been crazy.’

She felt crushed by the guilt of ruining the interview for a nonsensical reason.

She had faced failure in final interviews before, but not like this. She felt hollow and weak in the knees.

It was an especially important interview.

Taesung Biologics was a place she had yearned to join, setting aside all other interviews.

The salary and treatment were among the best in the industry.

The image of a global corporation was appealing, and part of her wanted to know what kind of person the newly appointed grandson president was.

‘So foolish.’

But she had blown all her chances.

With a heavy sense of regret still lingering, Yeon-woo loitered near the interview room before finally managing to go down to the first floor.

Just as she decided to buy some desserts that her mother Sun-ok liked, since she had come all the way to Seoul, her eyes widened.

She saw the interviewer, the man who had captivated her and flipped over her resume, walking towards the lobby.

She thought it was all over, but facing the man again, her legs moved without her realizing it.

It felt like a last chance given by fate.

She thought she had to change the man’s mind no matter what.

“Hello!”

Yeon-woo approached the man and bowed.

Lifting her head, she saw the man looking down at her with half-lowered eyes.

Yeon-woo inhaled sharply.

The man’s black eyes were like those of a wild beast. Startled by his untamed aura, Yeon-woo clasped her hands tightly.

“I’m sorry for blocking your way. I’m not sure if you remember me, but I was in the interview earlier.”

The man’s expressionless eyes scanned her. He seemed to remember.

“I’m sorry for the mistake I made in the interview room. But I wanted to tell you something. I wasn’t sleepy or insincere. Rather, it was because of the tension…”

“Is that why you couldn’t go home?”

Unexpectedly, the man laughed.

Yeon-woo’s eyes widened as she looked up at him. He seemed entirely different from the impression he had given in the interview room.

He had a face that suited smiling.

His sharp and intense eyes, which she had found overpowering, now seemed gentler in the afternoon light.

“I just wanted to clear up any misunderstandings. Thank you for listening.”

Regaining her senses, Yeon-woo deeply bowed, her hands clasped together.

She then quickly stepped back, not wanting to take any more of his time.

“What’s your name?”

But suddenly, the man asked.

“It’s Seo Yeon-woo.”
As Yeon-woo promptly responded, the man tilted his head slightly and asked, “Do you have any special skills?”

Yeon-woo’s lips quivered, a bit flustered. The man’s sudden inquiry about her special skills seemed to have some hidden intent.

“Something I’m good at. Something where I’m better than others,” the man kindly elaborated.

“I am meticulous and have a strong sense of responsibility,” Yeon-woo replied.

“Everyone says they are meticulous and responsible. Don’t you have a different answer?”

A mocking chuckle came in response, making Yeon-woo’s throat tighten.

“What should I say?”

She wasn’t particularly quick-witted usually, but in front of this man, it felt like total darkness.

As seconds ticked by, cold sweat ran down her back. Knowing this question could be her last chance made it even harder for her to speak.

But saying something was better than silence.

“I am good at smiling,” Yeon-woo said and then beamed a bright smile.

The man stared at her intently, and then let out a snicker.

A snicker that was almost a sneer.

“Is that so?”

It was obviously a failed response, and Yeon-woo felt overwhelmed with embarrassment, but she maintained her smile nonetheless.

“Okay, now go home and get some sleep,” the man said, ending the conversation and walking past Yeon-woo.

He looked indifferent again, as if he had never engaged in the conversation.

Yeon-woo couldn’t sleep well that night, haunted by guilt for blowing her last chance.

So, when she later received the final acceptance notification, she felt as if the world was playing tricks on her.

She remembered the man’s mockery.

Turns Out He’s Been Secretly in Love with Me

One-line summary: He acts like he doesn’t like her but is actually playing hard to get.

Synopsis:

Xu Muzhou like her. He has liked her for a very long time, and through repeated schemes, he finally closed the distance with her.

But this is still far from enough.

He wants to be the one who stands out among her many suitors, to fight for her attention, and to make her take the initiative to pursue him.
