It was a blatant advertisement proclaiming her as a married woman.
Even the genius Sajun seems childish and simple when seen like this. Although such a sight is cute and charming.
The feeling of annoyance disappeared in an instant, and Taehee handed the gifts Jun had prepared for the employees.
“Oh my, did Taehee also get married?”
“Oh, this is too much. Seriously.”
Male employees who learned that Taehee got married were desperate, and female employees had a slightly relieved expression.
Everyone had a good reaction, but only Director Kim Woo-yeon, who is the same age as Taehee, still made an uncomfortable expression and said:
“What? Are you trying to bribe us with a gift right after coming in as an intern?”
It seemed that the lingering resentment from earlier remained. Even though she knew it was a thank-you gift for the reply cakes prepared as a congratulatory gift for the wedding, she wondered if she should say such things.
“Once I came back from my honeymoon, today was my first day at work. I thought I should give something, even if it’s rice cakes.”
“Taehee, are you asking for a congratulatory gift from us even after holding a wedding ceremony?”
Taehee, who was born with a talent for twisting words, almost raised her eyebrows at such remarks.
Endure it, Min Taehee. You are an intern. Losing gracefully is winning.
“I wouldn’t do that. I hope you can receive it with a happy heart since I’m giving it with a happy heart.”
“If you were going to give it, couldn’t you have prepared cosmetics instead of hand wash? Didn’t you visit the duty-free shop during your honeymoon abroad?”
How much are duty-free cosmetics?
Taehee, who restrained herself from asking such questions, smiled even more kindly.
Kim Woo-yeon, you must be a capable worker. That’s the only way you won’t face any trouble when you climb up the ranks and become the boss.
“Yeah, I never thought about it that way. These are all gifts prepared by my husband. I’ll be sure to pass on your words, Director. How can he not have the sense to prepare gifts like this?”
“Yeah, be sure to pass it on. Men don’t know unless you tell them.”
Director Kim, who had no idea that the man who just visited the department was the CEO, smiled with the winner’s smile.
Taehee also laughed along with Director Kim.
At that moment, her phone rang.
[Ms. Min Taehee, come to the emergency stairs on the 5th floor right away.]It was a message from her husband and the CEO, Kang Sajun. What, can’t she distinguish between work and personal matters? Taehee chuckled and sent a reply.
[I will decline. I’m not like a CEO, and today is the first day for the intern to come to work, so it’s not easy to leave my seat.]After sending the reply, how many minutes passed? Manager Yoon called Taehee.
“Taehee, please come.”
“Yes, Manager.”
“The CEO is giving gifts to the interns and saying a few words of encouragement. Since Taehee is the first batter, go up to the 5th floor right away.”
It felt like she had easily surrendered too quickly after refusing just a few minutes ago. However, she couldn’t refuse the order of the department head, even if she had refused the CEO and her husband’s order.
“Yes, I understand.”
Taehee’s eye corners trembled as she answered with a bright smile.
She left the office and headed for the elevator.
As she passed through the emergency exit, the door suddenly opened, and a long arm reached out.
“…!”
Without a chance to resist, her shoulders and waist were firmly caught, and she was pulled into the emergency exit like a flash of light.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
