That’s why she had engaged in absurd physical contact with Do Jun the previous evening.
Right on cue, Do Jun’s car reached the intersection where he usually dropped Tae Yeon off.
As Do Jun slowed down the car, he said, “If you’re really grateful, could you do me a favor while walking to the office today?”
“Sure, what is it?”
The car came to a stop, and Tae Yeon unbuckled her seatbelt.
Do Jun’s soft voice came through, “Since you’re walking anyway, think of me a bit.”
At that moment, at Tae Yeon’s family home.
Having been told to leave Tae Yeon alone, President Jin and Chun Hye had stopped contacting her.
“How long must I wait?” grumbled President Jin, still without a response from Do Jun about the investment.
Heading to work, President Jin called Hye Sook, “Has there been any contact from Tae Yeon?”
“None.”

“We should secretly check with Tae Yeon, how Cha Son-in-law is doing lately.”
“But you said not to bother Tae Yeon.”
“I’ve never seen such a frustrating woman,” he sighed, lowering his voice. “Tae Yeon isn’t glued to her husband all day. Can’t we sneak in a call during her alone time?”
“Even so…”
“I’m worried Cha Son-in-law will explode if I nag Tae Yeon.”
“But you told me not to contact her too.”
President Jin clicked his tongue, “A mother visiting her daughter’s new home out of concern. What a display of maternal love!”
Amused with his own idea, he laughed, “It’d be odd if I go, so you should go instead.”
President Jin left the house after threatening Hye Sook to find out information from Tae Yeon.
Frustrated, Hye Sook sighed heavily. Tae Jin approached and sat beside her, linking arms.

“Mom, why such a gloomy face today?”
“Sigh.”
“What’s wrong? Tell me.”
“We need to get an investment from KK Group, but Cha Son-in-law hasn’t said anything yet.”
“What does Tae Yeon say?”
“Cha Son-in-law barred her from contacting us.”
“What? Who forbids his wife from contacting her own parents?”
Everyone in the Jin family knew Hye Sook’s attitude towards Tae Yeon wasn’t genuine love. They pretended otherwise.
Tae Jin sympathized, “Mom must be really upset. Isn’t Tae Yeon too much for not making a single call?”
“Raising children is all in vain, huh. Sigh.”

“Mom, what about this idea?”
Tae Jin whispered something to Hye Sook.
“Do we need to go that far?”
“Well, you’re not the one doing it.”
Without a better plan, Hye Sook reluctantly agreed and stood up.
“As you’re not the one making it.”
Tae Jin’s suggestion was the only viable option that came to mind.
Reluctantly, Hye Sook stood up.
Around quitting time, in front of KK Food’s headquarters.
Hye Sook was loitering, holding something in her hand.
Suddenly, a loud bang came from the smoking area tucked in a corner.
Startled, Hye Sook quickly became curious and walked towards the sound.
“Who dares to hit on a taken woman? This guy must be out of his mind!”
A group of rough-looking men was cornering a skinny man against the wall, yelling at him.
“If I catch you near my wife again, there’ll be no mercy. Got it?”
“Yes, I understand. I won’t even come close again.”
The man, kneeling and begging pitifully, was looked down upon by the group as if he was a pest. They soon left.
Hye Sook, who had been watching as if it was an entertaining spectacle, recognized the face of the man who was still kneeling.
She’d seen him somewhere before.
Where had she seen him?
Hye Sook checked the man’s employee badge.

KK Food’s New Business Team, Manager Chae Si Rak.
A familiar name.
As Hye Sook racked her brain, she suddenly let out a yelp.
“Oh?”
She remembered.
He was the last person she expected to see here.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
Short intro:

Shen Yaoxing: Bro, don’t be like this, I’m really about to throw up!
She fears nothing in heaven or earth, except for him getting close to her.
*
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!
