“What I told you about liking Assistant Manager Jin, I’ve only shared with you, Manager Chae.”
“…”
“What do you think that means?”
Shi Rak grinned broadly.
It meant Do Jun trusted him a lot, having shared his feelings with only him.
“If any baseless rumors spread in the company, I’ll consider it came from you. Remember that.”
“There will be no such thing.”
Do Jun gestured with his chin towards the door, signaling Shi Rak to leave. Shi Rak exited the office in a flurry.
Sighing heavily after sending Shi Rak away, Do Jun loosened his tie, still feeling suffocated.
Seeing Shi Rak yelling at Tae Yeon had snapped all his patience.
“How dare anyone, to whom…”
Lately, there were too many people bothering Tae Yeon.
She was a woman he felt should only experience good things, even if he kept her by his side all the time.
He had thought not to interfere in company matters related to Tae Yeon, but he couldn’t just stand by and watch.
Tae Yeon was known for her quick hands and efficient work.
Do Jun was aware that employees of higher ranks occasionally asked Tae Yeon to handle their tasks.
Today’s direct confrontation with Shi Rak was a warning to them.
A warning not to mess with Tae Yeon again.
He made it clear, so they wouldn’t provoke his woman again.
Do Jun shifted his gaze back to the documents he was reviewing.
Then, realizing what he had just admitted, he dropped his fountain pen with a clatter.
“What did I just say?”
He had said he liked Tae Yeon as a woman.
“This is crazy.”
Earlier, his anger had clouded all rational thought.
He had resisted the urge to transfer Shi Rak to a regional subsidiary to keep him away from Tae Yeon.
It seemed another bomb had gone off instead.
He couldn’t believe what he had just confessed.
“Likes her.”
Yes, that seemed right.
He had been gradually drawn to Tae Yeon for a long time.
True feelings often burst out unexpectedly.
Do Jun picked up the fountain pen again, trying to focus on the documents, but concentration eluded him.
Was it because he had finally acknowledged his feelings?
“I can’t work, missing her like this.”
Admitting it felt liberating.
And now, he decided to be more unabashed.
“What’s wrong with a husband liking his wife?”
So what.
Muttering softly to himself, Do Jun put down his pen and stood up.
To quell this turmoil, he felt the need to see Tae Yeon’s face.
After Shi Rak left, Tae Yeon sat in the office, feeling uncomfortable.
Everyone passing by said Shi Rak needed to come to his senses, which she appreciated, but it wasn’t comforting.
She had wanted a quiet office life, but now she felt she had unnecessarily escalated things.
Soon after, Shi Rak returned to the office.
Tae Yeon quickly turned her gaze to her monitor, expecting Shi Rak to come over and berate her.
Sure enough, she felt him approaching.
Tensing her hand on the mouse, she slowly turned around.
Shi Rak, surprisingly, started a conversation she didn’t expect.
“Assistant Manager Jin, I’m sorry.”
“…….”
Everyone in the office glanced their way.
“I realized I’ve been unfairly dumping my work on you.”
“Ah…….”
Not knowing what to say, Tae Yeon just smiled awkwardly.
“If it’s too much, you should have said something. Haha.”
Shi Rak laughed, trying to appear amiable.
“From now on, you won’t need to help me with anything. Get back to work.”
And just like that, Shi Rak returned to his desk.
“What just happened?”
Tae Yeon was bewildered by the turn of events.
Then her phone lit up with a message.
After reading it, she quickly got up from her seat.
As Tae Yeon hurried out of the office, a lingering gaze followed her.
Upon reaching the rooftop garden, a warm breeze stirred Tae Yeon’s hair.
The trees, now lush with green leaves, seemed to welcome her.
Being a busy hour, the rooftop garden was deserted.
“Where did he say he was?”
Tae Yeon looked around the garden and then moved forward.
“Department Head?”
She couldn’t find Do Jun anywhere, who had asked to meet here.
“Hasn’t he arrived yet?”
Thinking to wait for Do Jun in a corner, Tae Yeon walked towards a large tree.
As she reached the tree, an arm suddenly reached out from behind it and grabbed her wrist.
“Ah?”
Losing her balance, Tae Yeon stumbled slightly.
The arm that pulled her in wrapped around her, and a low voice whispered.
“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, wanting to see you.”
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
