“It’s a hot spot on SNS these days because it has a special sauce that can’t be imitated. It’s often a place where you can’t buy anything even if you line up early in the morning. I wonder how our team leader managed to get it. He’s amazing.”
Yeon Ji rolled her eyes as if she was extremely curious.
Jae In’s lips kept twitching.
“Just a phone call would have been enough, trust me.”
He’s going to be the CEO soon, but nothing seems impossible for him.
Oh well, it’s not like I’m a donkey with rabbit ears.
Jae In blocked her restless mouth with the sandwich.
With one bite, the fresh salmon, rich cheese, and avocado, combined with fresh vegetables, filled her mouth perfectly.
As expected, the flavor of the special sauce was outstanding and lingered on her tongue.
“It’s really delicious!”
But wait.
It was a taste that Jae In already knew.
No wonder the logo looked familiar.
When she tasted the unique sauce of the DS Hotel sandwich, something came to mind.
“No way, was it that?”
Jae In blinked her eyes widely and stared at the firmly closed door of the team leader’s office.
.

.
A few weeks ago.
It was a day when Jae In was struggling with overtime work as usual.
That day, she had ambitious plans to leave early,
but exactly 3 minutes before leaving, she was poked by Do Hyuk to organize materials related to a new product.
Nahui, who had been grumbling since morning, saying that she’s going to see a doctor, left with a disappointed expression and said a word.
“Assistant Seo, what should we do? The team leader cares about Assistant Seo so much that he doesn’t even give you time to date.”
“He cares, so what? I’m fine…”
“Oh, maybe you’re fine because you’ve never dated?”
Jae In almost broke the pen she was holding.
Nahui, do you even receive private tutoring or something?
“You’re really good at speaking rudely.”
In her mind, Jae In drew three patience characters that could avoid murder.
After Nahui, the rest of the team members disappeared one by one, throwing glances that said, ‘Again?’ and ‘Not good.’
Left alone, Jae In felt a mix of sadness and irritation.
“Oh, why me again? Bad team leader, what a waste of beauty! If you’re going to make us work overtime, please tell us in advance!”
Don’t give false hope for no reason.
Let’s just erase the word “early leave” from our minds.
That would be mentally healthier.
Jae In focused on her work, skipping dinner in order to finish as quickly as possible.
While taking a short trip to the restroom, she noticed something placed on her desk.
It was a long sandwich divided into two parts and a cup of coffee.
The warmth was still lingering in the sandwich, indicating that it hadn’t been long since it was brought.
The sunflowershaped logo attached to the wrapper was particularly impressive.
“Who brought this?”
As Jae In looked around, she coincidentally met eyes with Do Hyuk, who was coming out of the team leader’s office.
“Um, Team Leader, did you…?”
“What is it?”
Do Hyuk had an unusually cold and tense expression.
To the point where it was scary to approach him.
“Oh, it’s nothing.”
“Assistant Seo…”
“Yes?”
What does this person want to ask me now?
Jae In, who was already on the verge of collapsing from work, suddenly became nervous when Do Hyuk called her.
“It’s nothing.”
Do Hyuk hesitated as if he had something to say, then went back into the team leader’s office.
“Phew, I got nervous for no reason.”
After the team leader’s office door closed, Jae In shook her head in disbelief.
“This can’t be true. There’s no way someone like him would do something so considerate.”
Even Jae In found it unbelievable and chuckled.
At that moment, a gentle voice could be heard from outside the door.
“Jae In, are you working without having dinner again?”
It was Min Woo from the Product Planning Team 2, who was standing next to her.
“Ah, Senior Min Woo. Are you working late too?”
“Our team is finished, so I’m going in now. Jae In, it’s good to work hard, but make sure to take care of yourself and eat while you work.”
Min Woo smiled, squinting his eyes.
“Oh, Min Woo senior brought it for me.”
That makes sense then.
Min Woo used to bring snacks for the team members when they worked late, and he often included Jae In’s portion as well.
Jae In expressed her gratitude while holding the sandwich.
“Thank you, senior!”
“Yeah, keep up the good work!”
Min Woo waved his hand and disappeared.
Jae In, who didn’t have any siblings, was always grateful to Min Woo, who took care of her like an older brother.
Just as Jae In was about to take a bite of the sandwich, she suddenly felt concerned about Do Hyuk in the team leader’s office.
It felt awkward to be the only one eating when they were alone in the office that day.
After all, Mom always said it was rude to eat alone.
“Should I offer him a piece?”
Jae In stood up, holding the sandwich in her hand.
But she quickly changed her mind and sat back down.
“Ugh, can’t you see my personality? If I do that, what if he acts like, ‘Why are you doing this?’ and refuses to eat it? It’s obvious.”
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
