“Oh my!”
Lina and Jiyeon blocked Sehee’s sudden move with their mouths agape.
“Uh, where are you going?”
Hojin asked, staring at Sehee.
“We can’t discuss important matters here.”
Sehee, who had suddenly risen from her seat, gently took Hojin’s hand and pulled him along.
Then, in an instant, Hojin’s body followed hers.
“Just us?”
“Of course. Let’s go to a much better place than here.”
In fact, Sehee had been waiting for a private moment with Hojin since the moment she spotted him at the event.
No, to be honest, it had been since the day the incident occurred.
Perhaps because of that.
Sehee didn’t hesitate to approach Hojin.
There already existed a dizzying and passionate memory between the two.
“Sehee… What about me?”
Hyunwoo, left alone suddenly, asked with a pitiful expression.
“Director! The director should stay with us. There are important things to discuss.”
Seoyeon urgently pleaded with Hyunwoo inside, silently shouting, “Don’t grab him!”
Fortunately, Sehee seemed not to hear Hyunwoo’s words at the moment.
“I’ll go first.”
She firmly held Hojin’s hand and quickly left.
“Yura, what on earth is happening?”
Hyunwoo said with a mournful expression.
Kwon Yul poured wine for him and shared an anecdote about the day the two had coincidentally met before.
Of course, he didn’t mention what he knew about that incident.
“Oh, if, by any chance, Seoyeon and Yul get along well, and Hojin and Lawyer Sehee get along well…”
“Getting along well with each other and marrying into the same family. That’s it.”
Jiyeon marveled at Lina’s simple and clear summary.
“Seoyeon, it’s fantastic that everything worked out so well.”
“That’s right. It would be really fun if we all meet with our husbands from now on.”
Lina and Jiyeon genuinely liked the news, like mothers celebrating the late love affair of their daughter.
“Please make sure to invite us. I want to meet them too.”
Kwon Yul smiled and gently held Seoyeon’s hand in gratitude.
More than anything, the approval and support of friends meant a lot to Kwon Yul.
“Yul, what do you think about all this?”
Suddenly left alone, Hyunwoo was confused by the unbelievable situation.
As long as there was someone in the same situation as Sehee, he could endure the solo life.
If he made a wrong move, he might end up being left alone. Moreover, there was even Seoyeon, who was younger than him, and Yul, who had Yura.
“Hoo…”
As Hyunwoo let out a deep sigh, the quick-witted Seoyeon didn’t miss it.
“Director.”
“Oh, yes.”
“Do you still take care of your skin these days?”
Seoyeon carefully examined Hyunwoo’s flawless face and asked.
“Of course. Regardless of gender, once the skin is damaged, it can’t be undone.”
“As expected, Director Hyunwoo is very thorough in self-care. So, I mean…”
Seoyeon hadn’t forgotten her gratitude towards Hyunwoo.
In fact, he had contributed the most to her meeting with Kwon Yul.
“If it’s okay with you, Director, I have a close friend who is a dermatologist.”
“A dermatologist?”
“Yes. This person. We’re very close.”
Seoyeon showed a picture as she spoke.
“Oh? I think this person often appears on TV. Am I right?”
Nodding, Seoyeon added a brief introduction to the person’s background.
“If you’re okay with it, I can arrange a meeting. What do you think?”
Without any hesitation, Hyunwoo immediately expressed his desire to meet.
“Since we have an appointment for next week, I’ll share the contact details with you.”
Seoyeon had taken advantage of the situation to secure a date for Hyunwoo’s blind date.
Even if it didn’t work out well this time, she planned to introduce someone else.
“If it doesn’t work out well this time, I’ll introduce someone else again. Until you find your destiny.”
In a way, this was like insurance for Seoyeon to express her gratitude to Hyunwoo.
I had the intention of repaying the gratitude to Hyunwoo with what he desires. If a moment comes when his help is needed, I thought about creating an atmosphere where I could ask for it.
“Let’s handle the home shopping work with Director Hyunwoo from now on. We should minimize meetings with CEO Choi as much as possible.”
Thinking he might be a businessman, Seoyeon, preparing for potential risks, sketched out a bigger picture to make Hyunwoo stand by her side.
In the current situation where quitting home shopping work immediately wasn’t possible, this seemed to be the best option.
At that moment, Lina tapped Seoyeon on the shoulder.
“Seoyeon, Yul is quietly amusing. Why does he know so much?”
Seoyeon looked at Yul, leading the conversation with their giggling friends in a soft voice.
“Regardless of age, it’s fun to talk with our Yul.”
Perhaps due to the scheduled blind date, Hyunwoo also seemed much more comfortable.
With fragrant wine, delicious snacks, and enjoyable conversation with a liked person, Seoyeon was happy in this perfect peace.
On the way back after dropping off her friends.
Yul’s car gradually came to a stop in Seoyeon’s apartment parking lot.
Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!
――
This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”
