“Do you want to see the rest of the photos? Seon-woo has only seen three of my transformation. I have selfies of all of them.”
“Can I see them?”
“Of course. I saved them all on my tablet.”
Green fetched her tablet from beside the vanity. Seon-woo and Green leaned together, flipping through each photo with great interest.
“Indeed, the photo from the first event resembles the Green I remember the most.”
Their heads drew closer around the tablet. Suddenly, Green realized Seon-woo’s breath on her nape.
Startled, she turned to find his handsome face inches from hers. Thankfully, he was too focused on the photos to notice her flustered state.
Green quickly straightened up, creating some distance between them.
“That was just two months into my personal training.”
Blushing slightly, Green remembered the pressure of the first event.
“It was my mother-in-law’s charity bazaar, and she told me to donate anything. I had nothing appropriate, so Jenny donated a fur coat. But you know what the real surprise was?”
“What was it?”
“It was real tiger fur, not just a print!”
“That must be quite expensive, right?”
“Of course! It’s over 50 million won, and only four of those came into our country.”
Upon hearing the price of the fur, Seon-woo whistled briefly in astonishment.
“Jenny offered that up for you, Green? She must be really generous.”
“She inherited several buildings in Gangnam from her father, so acting is more or less a hobby for her. Anyway, after I offered that tiger fur coat at the charity bazaar, I became an absolute star.”
As Green chattered away, Seon-woo listened with interest, smiling silently. Green’s heart raced with satisfaction upon seeing the smile she wanted.
“I did feel like I passed my first test at that time. Initially, she called me once every two months, but the frequency of meetings gradually increased to up to three times a month.”
Green, while seemingly bothered, couldn’t hide her pride in having earned recognition from In-young, just like she had boldly declared during her contract with Seon-woo.
Seon-woo laughed, amused by Green’s response. He hadn’t laughed so openly since he was nine, although he himself wasn’t aware of it.
Delighted by his laughter, Green wanted to make him laugh even more.
“Seon-woo, do you want to see photos of Jenny wearing the same clothes as me?”
“Sure.”
Green showed him Jenny’s photos saved on her tablet. Jenny wore the same clothes, shoes, accessories, and bags as Green and posted these pictures on SNS every time.
Green had taken paparazzi-style shots for Jenny, much to the delight of the sponsors.
Although they wore the same items, Green and Jenny’s vibes were completely different.
Initially excited to show Jenny’s photos, Green gradually slowed down in flipping through them.
‘…I shouldn’t have shown him.’
She felt foolish for letting Seon-woo compare her, an ordinary person, to a top actress like Jenny.
“Jenny is taller, so naturally, she looks better in clothes, right?”
Feeling slightly embarrassed, Green closed the tablet screen.
“That’s true.”
When Seon-woo agreed, Green momentarily felt annoyed. After all, there’s such a thing as white lies.
“But this was styled by Hana for you, right? That’s probably why you look perfect in every photo, but there seem to be awkward parts in Jenny’s photos.”
“Really?”
“I think Jenny’s photos look better because they were taken by a professional like you, Green. If Jenny had taken selfies, the awkwardness would have been more pronounced.”
Seeing Seon-woo nod earnestly, Green couldn’t help but laugh heartily.
“Thank you for your subjective and biased review.”
“Oh no, I am a very objective and fair person.”
“Yes, yes.”
As Green playfully responded, Seon-woo smiled and took her tablet, beginning to open each photo again from the start.
“It’s quite fascinating.”
“What is?”
“The way you look different in every outfit. A suit gives an intellectual vibe, a hanbok looks extremely elegant, and a party dress somehow sexy…”
“Really?”
“The green in the fuchsia mini dress you wore today was really cute. It’s amazing how people can change so much depending on what they wear.”
Seon-woo’s voice slowed down and became softer, as if he was fondly recalling Green’s appearance from yesterday.
Green, feeling her heart race, couldn’t bring herself to look at his face. She rubbed the bedsheet with her index finger nonchalantly and asked, “What’s your preference, Seon-woo? Elegant Green? Sexy Green? Cute Green?”
No answer came from Seon-woo, prompting Green to glance at him. To her disbelief, he had fallen asleep, his eyes closed and head nodding off.
Green chuckled in bemusement, wondering how to manage getting this large man comfortably into bed.
Just then, Seon-woo’s head dropped onto Green’s shoulder.

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.
