Near Giyeon’s seat, an unfamiliar man was smiling broadly.
Instantly, an unpleasant memory of a corridor in a Chinese restaurant flashed through Yuin’s mind, and a sharply irritated voice emerged.
“Who are you?”
“I just saw you sitting alone, looking bored. Where did your companion go?”
Yuin sighed audibly and looked towards the entrance where Giyeon had left, but his tall figure was not yet visible.
The man, still smiling widely, continued.
“Hey, I’m not a weird person. I’ve done some ads recently, haven’t you seen me on TV?”
Pointing to his own face with his index finger, the man seemed insistent on being recognized.
Yuin looked at him disapprovingly and replied coldly.
“Yes. I haven’t seen you, so please leave me alone.”
“Oh, you’re quite feisty. Excuse me, then. Just tell me one thing. What are you preparing for? An actor? An idol?”
Confusion was evident on Yuin’s face, clearly not understanding what he was talking about.
Realizing his mistake, the man’s expression turned to astonishment.
“Ah? Not you? Then the person who was with you earlier[ellipsis].”
That’s when it happened. The chattering man’s shoulder was suddenly grabbed and pushed back a couple of steps.
Yuin, who had been sitting, and the man, who was speaking, were both startled by the silent arrival of the figure.
“What’s this about?”
Giyeon asked coldly and sharply.
His icy gaze swept over Yuin and then settled on the man who had been pushed back.
Too shocked to respond, the man stared wide-eyed, then awkwardly adjusted his clothes and forced a smile.
“Ah, you’re Director Dogiyeon, aren’t you?”
“Do I know you?”
Giyeon, with his hands in his suit pants, partially shielding Yuin, looked annoyed.
The man quickly changed his demeanor, wearing a contrived smile, and bowed.
“Director. Good to see you! We met recently at a drama reading. Do you remember?”
Giyeon was silent for a moment.
Then, as if recalling a memory, Giyeon tilted his head slightly to the side and slowly scanned the man standing before him from head to toe.
The oppressive atmosphere radiating from the expressionless Giyeon made the man’s shoulders flinch and then tense up. In just a few seconds of eye contact, the man turned pale as if he was being strangled.
Yuin, observing this, became anxious too, feeling her throat dry up.
At this moment, the man in front of her was not the smiling and pleasant Dogiyeon, but rather Dogiyeon, the Director of Ilrang Entertainment, the leading company in the industry.
“But.”
“……Yes, yes?”
“Met at the reading site, so what? Does that give you a reason to come onto my partner?”
The man’s mouth fell open, his face quickly turning as dark as the sky before a rainstorm.
Yuin was as stunned as the man by what she heard, but Giyeon’s aura was so intense that she just bit her lip in silence.
“Ah… I mean, I didn’t mean to offend…”
“Offending is a given. Are you admitting that was your real intention, coming here?”
“No, no, not at all! I just wanted to greet Director Dogiyeon… I asked this… person.”
The man frantically waved his hands, sweat breaking out on his brow. His gaze fleetingly shifted to Yuin.
Seeing this, flames seemed to spark in Giyeon’s dark eyes.
“Hey. Why are you looking there? Aren’t we talking?”
His voice, infused with irritation, lashed out at the man.
Yuin’s large back, which seemed to be inflated with anger, then deflated.
“No, I mean, it’s just a misunderstanding! I really just wanted to greet you, Director. I’m terribly sorry if I upset you.”
The man bent his waist in a pitifully groveling manner, apologizing and making excuses, but Giyeon scoffed openly.
“Greetings? Why? Think you’ll get an extra line in the script if you impress me? Did your agency tell you to do that?”
With a biting and ferocious tone, the man was left speechless. Giyeon scoffed again, clearly bored.
A dejected man with a lost expression and the man mocking him mercilessly.
This unusual scene, with two strikingly handsome men, was an uncommon sight in the restaurant, attracting increasingly more glances.
Yuin, unable to bear it any longer, gently shook Giyeon’s wrist. He flinched for a moment.
“Director, everyone’s watching.”
At Yuin’s soft voice, the immovable figure whirled around with a gust of wind.
“Yuin, let’s go. Get up.”
His voice was soothing, contrasting starkly with his demeanor when addressing the man, but Giyeon’s face was still hard.
Yuin looked up anxiously and stood up. Giyeon, ignoring the still bowing man, tightly grasped Yuin’s hand.
As the two quickly exited the restaurant, onlookers’ eyes lingered, but Yuin felt none of it.
All she could sense was the firm hand gripping hers, promising never to let go, and the cool touch on her shoulder.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
