“Senior, well… There are work-related confidentiality issues, and I can’t tell you everything. It’s not what you think. So, it’s…”
“Attorney Cha, let me explain. What crime has Attorney Cha committed?”
Line intercepted Haein, who didn’t know what to do. As a matter of fact, Haein had done nothing wrong. She had just followed orders.
“Attorney Cha, could you please step aside for a moment?”
Haein stepped aside for a moment, and silence filled the space between the remaining two.
“Am I right about what I saw?”
“Yes, you are.”
Line answered without meeting Juhyeok’s eyes.
“Senior, I need that person’s help right now. To return to the prosecution….”
“What? Help? Where did you hear that I said I’d testify for you? What can Na Songgang do for you!”
That he couldn’t express all the bitterness he felt was evident in his expression and trembling voice.
“At least… Can’t he prevent me from being treated like before?”
In her voice, struggling to speak, there was a slight bitterness.
“So, senior, please understand a bit.”
He turned his head away from Line. While he understood it intellectually, it was something he couldn’t accept emotionally.
“Just go back. I don’t want to meet anyone. Tell Haein to just leave too.”
Line took a step towards him but stopped. Even though Juhyeok wouldn’t do as she wanted, she couldn’t force him to understand her. Line reluctantly took a difficult step away.
Song Kang had more than a few doubts about Line’s case. Even though she hadn’t said anything, he was paying a lot of attention to her.
Could it be… Perhaps the recent incident when Line visited Taesung was the starting point…
Song Kang went down to the desk himself. When he appeared, the employees were frozen.
All the employees stood up, and the manager of the information service came out to greet Director Na Songgang. They had only seen Director Na Songgang passing by; he had never come to the desk like this before.
“Director, what brings you here…”
“No. Where is the head of the security team?”
“For what reason…”
“I have something to ask directly. Where is the head of the security team?”
“Oh, what’s this about…?”
Song Kang’s expression hardened. The atmosphere turned cold in an instant. The manager of the information service vomited out a couple of explanations at Director Na Songgang’s words.
The problem was his attitude, trying to hide something. The agents standing behind Song Kang were also bewildered. In a hurry, Song Kang’s secretary stepped back and called the head of the security team.
“During this time, I haven’t had a chance to work separately from the information service. Thanks to you, I managed well on my own. However, coming here like this, there are noticeable things I overlooked.”
Song Kang shifted his gaze from the manager’s nameplate to his face. He knew there was something he wanted to hide, but even if the method was wrong, it seemed much more wrong.
If he just turned around and left here, his secretary could handle it, but he made an effort to calm down. When he was about to speak calmly, the head of the security team came running.
“Director, have you been looking for me?”
The head of the security team had participated in a meeting hosted by Director Na Songgang related to VIP protocols during a company event, so he knew his style well.
“If you had called, I would have come up right away. Why did you come down here?”
Yeah, indeed. If he had reported before coming to ask, there wouldn’t have been this inconvenience of him coming in person.
“A while ago, someone asked about the VIP entry records. Was there a reason you needed to know about the guest records when Vice Manager Na Songrim visited this office?”
Song Kang’s question wasn’t meant to find out; he threw it out to see what would come up.
“That…”
“Why call the guests entering the VIP room ‘VIP’? Isn’t it the case that if this security has been breached, you should submit your resignation before the disciplinary committee is convened?”
Song Kang asked calmly without showing anger.
The head of the security team sweated profusely, unsure of what to do.
“Well, the thing is…”
“There seems to be a clear fact. Is it a problem that requires careful consideration?”
“I’m sorry…! Lady Sarno kept pressing me…”
“Is it related to Director Na’s order?”
“Yes…”
As expected, it was as predicted. There was no way out for the involved parties. Song Kang’s anger rose as embarrassment flooded in. For better or worse, they were people whose names were listed in the family register of Taesung.
“If such a thing happened, and you didn’t report it to me, is that right?”
“I apologize!”
“Even if it wasn’t a direct report to me, you should have at least warned the secretary. Don’t you think so?”
“I have no words to say. I’m sorry.”
The head of the security team seemed ready to kneel. The desk employees were also aware of the rumors about Director Na Songgang. They also knew there was no mercy for work-related mistakes.
“Write a report and submit it. You have 20 minutes. The format, spelling, context—none of it matters. Just submit it quickly. I’ll decide on the disciplinary action based on the report.”
Song Kang turned away, looking at his watch. There was a reason why he had given such a tight deadline. It was to prevent someone from intervening unexpectedly.
As soon as Song Kang finished speaking, the head of the security team hastily wrote and submitted the report. After reading the report, Song Kang couldn’t help but laugh.
Gum Moran had blackmailed them with their livelihoods, and being the relative weaker party, they had no choice… It was such an obvious story.
With the information Gum Moran obtained, it seemed that Na Songrim’s sudden promotion had led to this situation.
Then, how much did he know about Line…
Feeling uneasy thoughts swirling around, Song Kang called Line. His anxiety grew when she didn’t answer.
“Why isn’t she answering the phone like this…”
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
