As Ihyeon nudged him away, Pyeonghun still gazed longingly in the direction where Yerin was.
“Ah, I still had something to say to Yerin…”
“It’s too late for that now.”
“I know, but…”
“Our Yerin is quite tired today.”
As the door slammed shut and Yerin disappeared, Ihyeon’s pretend smile vanished instantly.
“Let’s go downstairs.”
His voice was cold, as if implying Pyeonghun had no choice but to leave.
“Well, I was just about to go down.”
“Mr. Pyeonghun, when did we become so close?”
“Huh?”
“You’ve been speaking informally. Should I do the same?”
“Oh, sorry about that.”
Pyeonghun awkwardly ran his hand through his hair. It wasn’t easy pretending to be an adult around his daughter’s boyfriend, especially someone like Ihyeon.
Meanwhile, they reached the ground floor. Pyeonghun’s eyes widened at the sight of the luxurious foreign car parked outside the villa.
“Is that car really yours?”
“……Yes?”
It was a rare car, with only two in the country, hard to even get a glimpse of.
Instead of directly answering Pyeonghun’s question, Ihyeon pressed the smart key.
Beep-beep
As the lights of the grand car came on, Pyeonghun’s mouth fell open in awe.
‘Where on earth did Yerin find such an impressive guy?’
Pyeonghun chuckled, thinking his daughter dating Ihyeon was the best thing she had ever done.
Initially, he thought Ihyeon was a narrow-minded brat, but seeing this expensive car instantly changed his attitude. Ihyeon was more generous than he thought.
“Are you really planning to take me home?”
“Yes.”
Ihyeon replied shortly and got into the car first. Pyeonghun, hesitantly, cautiously opened the passenger door. The interior design was as luxurious as the exterior.
‘Where did my daughter meet such an incredible guy?’
Curious about many things, Pyeonghun started to speak as Ihyeon smoothly drove off.
“About you and Yerin…”
“Mr. Pyeonghun, you’re not planning to visit again tomorrow, are you?”
Without hesitation, Pyeonghun responded.
“No, no. I mean, it’s not right to keep visiting my grown daughter like this, right? Haha.”
Then he immediately shut his mouth.
‘Ah, that’s not what I wanted to say.’
Around Ihyeon, he always got so nervous, ending up manipulated into saying what Ihyeon wanted. It was infuriating.
Ihyeon’s face remained expressionless as he focused on the road.
“I heard you have a good business idea?”
Pyeonghun’s head snapped around.
“Yes, there is. It’s revolutionary, if only I had the funds…”
“No investors?”
“Exactly.”
Pyeonghun’s eyes sparkled in the dark.
In truth, he had visited Yerin to ask for some money.
But now, he sensed a bigger opportunity without even having to dip into Yerin’s small wallet.
Pyeonghun was about to elaborate on his business idea when Ihyeon’s soft voice interrupted.
“I’d like to see your business plan.”
“Really?”
“Yes.”
Pyeonghun beamed.
He hadn’t expected Ihyeon to be the one to express interest in his business plan first. Thinking Ihyeon was smitten with Yerin, Pyeonghun put on a serious face, unseen by Ihyeon in the darkness.
“Heh, I should make some time for this.”
Of course, he had plenty of time, but he didn’t want to appear too available in front of busy Ihyeon. He feigned importance.
As they drove along the main road, Ihyeon pulled over to the side.
“I hope that while I’m reviewing your business plan, there won’t be any more unexpected visits to Yerin.”
While being nudged away by Ihyeon, Pyeonghun still glanced back wistfully towards where Yerin was.
“Ah, I still had something to tell Yerin…”
“It’s really late now.”
“I know, but…”
“Our Yerin is very tired today.”
As the door closed with a bang and Yerin disappeared, Ihyeon’s feigned smile vanished swiftly.
“Let’s go downstairs.”
His voice was chillingly cold, as if leaving was not an option for Pyeonghun.
“Ah, yes! Of course.”
Pyeonghun hadn’t gone to see Yerin out of longing. His real purpose was to try and squeeze out a bit more money.
The prospect of getting an investment made it easy to comply with Ihyeon’s request.
“And don’t bother us with unnecessary calls…”
“Oh, I won’t. No way.”
Why pester his unwelcoming daughter when he could open a much larger wallet without her?
Ihyeon replied with an expressionless face to Pyeonghun’s swift answers.
“Good we understand each other. But you seem to have a lot of questions about Yerin and me.”
Pyeonghun chuckled.
“Isn’t it better to ask me than Yerin?”
That was true. If Yerin heard Pyeonghun’s questions, she’d surely see him as mercenary.
Nodding vigorously, Ihyeon unlocked the car door.
“Let’s call it a night for now. I’ll tell you about our relationship another time.”
“Thank you. I appreciate the ride.”
Pyeonghun was dropped off on a strange road, a bit far from his home, but that was not his concern now.
“What a stroke of luck!”
He had suspected Ihyeon was wealthy based on his clothes and car.
But he never imagined Ihyeon would be willing to invest in a business venture with his girlfriend’s father.
“Yeah, Yerin does have her looks to thank me for.”
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him

At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
This dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Mingyue, and he vowed to make her, like everyone else, fall at his feet in worship!
