This guy is really, is he crazy?
At Taekyung’s gesture touching the lower lip, Woo Yeon felt a chill for a moment. It was perplexing to think that this scene was fully revealed to Shin Jaeyoung.
While pondering how to justify her relationship with Taekyung to Shin Jaeyoung, he threw a question first.
“What’s going on between you two?”
Shin Jaeyoung turned toward Woo Yeon. It was a gaze that seemed to inquire about the exact nature of their relationship, and Woo Yeon touched her forehead.
This is why I don’t go on business trips!
I won’t do interviews with Shin Jaeyoung again!
She had repeatedly whispered to Director Song during the last interview, but eventually, it seems this trouble would arise.
It’s all because of the ratings. Damn ratings. Damn broadcasting station.
Damn Yoon Woo Yeon.
Before Woo Yeon could explain the relationship by pressing her lips, Taekyung intercepted her words.
“Shall I explain it as a large fish in the fishpond raised by Yoon Woo Yeon?”
“Heh, what’s this? So you’re not dating.”
“Is that so?”
Taekyung asked seriously, and Shin Jaeyoung couldn’t answer.
It was because he could feel the dangerous atmosphere of Taekyung, who seemed to play with people on the edge between nonchalance and sharpness.
Taekyung added.
“Besides baseball, if there’s something you’re better at than me, come over and stick with me.”
“…”
“If Shin Jaeyoung is by my side, I’ll stand out more.”
While saying that, he cheekily approached, standing side by side with Shin Jaeyoung. Observing the two, Woo Yeon, standing between them, felt a peculiar impression.
Taekyung took out a business card from the pocket of his suit and handed it to Shin Jaeyoung.
Shin Jaeyoung, who had never backed down in front of anyone, looked silently at the name on the card.
Taekyung shook his shoulder lightly, as he had done to Woo Yeon as she had explained.
“Do the interview properly tomorrow. I might be able to sue you too.”
“…”
“I thought about knocking half of your face, but I’m refraining because I don’t want to see my woman scared. Shin Jaeyoung.”
“…”
“And the woman watching this situation is on my side. Don’t ruin your pride further here. Act accordingly and go back to the team. Then discuss with the team staff. Decide whether you want to attack me or that woman. That’s the goal.”
“Huh.”
Even looking at Shin Jaeyoung with an infuriated expression, Taekyung didn’t stop speaking.
“That’s usually how things are handled by educated people.”
“…”
“Since you haven’t learned, learn it properly this time.”
Tak Tak. Taekyung gestured to Woo Yeon, tapping his shoulder a couple of times.
Stop standing frozen; it meant to come here.
Woo Yeon walked towards Taekyung.
Although her head was throbbing, thinking about how to handle the aftermath, she wanted to quickly resolve this situation.
Standing next to Taekyung again, facing Shin Jaeyoung, Woo Yeon looked at Shin Jaeyoung, who stood with an expression as if she had received a blow from a stronger opponent for the first time in her life. She should have complained reasonably.
Even though she might not know much about the ways of the world due to her young age, it’s a habit to act arrogantly when everything seems easy.
Still, Yoon Woo Yeon, who handles social life quite well, expressed herself.
“Player Shin Jaeyoung, I’ll contact you again tomorrow morning.”
Taekyung left Shin Jaeyoung alone, wrapped his arm around Woo Yeon’s shoulder, and led her out. He took care of their share of the meal, led her to the lobby, and then to the elevator.
When Woo Yeon came to her senses and looked ahead, they were already in the cold elevator.
She pressed the floor number she was staying on naturally.
“Why did you let me get caught in this and ruin my mood?”
Woo Yeon smiled weakly, pushing her hair back that fell between her delicate ears.
She had countless thoughts about what to do if Shin Jaeyoung decided to speak up, but right now, the bigger problem was Cha Taekyung, who always exceeded expectations.
Perhaps they looked too much like a couple.
The two of us. We still look too affectionate.
Woo Yeon sighed, covering her face with both hands.
“How long have you been there?”
Taekyung responded to her question.
“I think I was there before the two exchanged greetings.”
“Were you going out for a meal? Alone?”
“I usually eat alone. But today, I thought Yoon Woo Yeon would eat with me, but she said she couldn’t. So I was disappointed. I thought she might be very busy today, but I didn’t know she’d be eating with another man. Am I expecting too much from my girlfriend?”
There was much to say to that. If he had followed the plan as promised, he wouldn’t have to see that scene.
Woo Yeon belatedly pressed the floor number of the hotel where she and the staff were staying.
“He said he’d come to pick me up tomorrow. It wasn’t me who broke the promise; it was the president. And…”
“And?”
“She’s not my girlfriend.”
Right, your words are correct.

This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
