Not long after receiving the message to come down, Nam Yuin popped out from the entrance where only her retreating back was visible, dressed in pristine white.
Gyeon watched her carefully, noticing the barely concealed concern that awkwardly played on her fair face.
He frowned slightly at the sight of Yuin, who was casually dressed but with an expression that suggested otherwise.
Seeing her downcast face in person was somehow more disheartening than he expected.
“Have you eaten dinner?”
“Yes. Just a little.”
As Yuin looked up at him with clear eyes filled with indescribable hesitation while asking about his dinner, Gyeon remained silent for a moment.
The reason for Yuin’s behavior was obvious. The needless friend Gyeon had riled up the previous day must have talked about him, or worse, made some damned confession.
“I haven’t yet.”
He replied calmly, his deep gaze scrutinizing Yuin. The slight crinkle of her nose as she tilted her head indicated she wasn’t in a dire state, but it was still displeasing.
No matter how long they’ve known each other or how close they are, why can’t she just not meet people like Yun Jihan? Gyeon wanted to express this freely but restrained himself as Yuin’s calm voice spoke.
“No matter how busy you are, make sure to eat well. You need energy to work.”
Yuin looked bashfully down, biting her lip after saying her piece.
Gyeon clenched his jaw, trying to suppress the strange itching inside his skin, along with a thought that he was glad he didn’t act on his irritation just now.
It was the first time Gyeon felt affectionate towards someone while observing them. Nam Yuin was likely to be both the first and the last.
Gyeon fixed his warm, affection-filled eyes on Yuin and gently took her white hand, hidden in the sleeve of her man-to-man shirt.
“I don’t get all wobbly just because I miss a meal, unlike someone.”
“……I don’t get wobbly either!”
“I didn’t say it was you, Yuin. Feeling guilty?”
Instead of responding, Yuin pouted her plump lips. Gyeon let out a laugh like a breeze through his lips at her childlike reaction.
Why does such a small gesture from this little woman make him laugh so much? It’s truly baffling.
What about her makes him so eager to rush to her side?
Any irritations and anger Gyeon had felt on his way to her had long since evaporated into the fragile wind.
“Nam Yuin.”
As Gyeon softly stroked the back of her hand, her round eyes peeked up at him.
The streetlights illuminating the two cast a tiny sparkle in Yuin’s moist eyes.
It seemed as if a warm fragrance was emanating from her slowly blinking eyelids. Nam Yuin’s unique, soft, and warm scent.
Yes, with her by his side, holding her hand, and looking at him, there was nothing he couldn’t tolerate.
A slow smile spread across Gyeon’s face.
“Let’s go for ice cream.”
“……Now? Where to?”
Her round eyes widened even more.
Gyeon, slightly bewildered, gently pulled her hand, bringing her closer to his side.
“Just follow me.”
Yuin followed him without much question, her face full of question marks. Gyeon felt a profound sense of contentment.
It’s strange. Just the fact that she follows him so compliantly makes her incredibly adorable. He must be going mad.
Failing to just peek at her face and deciding to take her out, Gyeon quickly thought on his feet.
Since the restaurant incident, he had resolved not to take Yuin to crowded places, so he needed to find a suitable location quickly.
Feeling a bit impulsive, he urgently contacted CEO Seo for help.
<—"Ah, Director Do."
"I'm coming now, just open the rooftop for a bit."
<—"Suddenly? That's not hard, but… are you bringing your girlfriend?"
Gyeon glanced at the seat beside him. Checking if CEO Seo's voice was overheard, Yuin just fiddled with the hem of her man-to-man shirt, staring blankly ahead.
Gyeon cleared his throat unnecessarily.
"It's not hard, then please set it up. It'll take about 20 minutes."
<—"You're already on your way and still calling? You're something else."
"I can't just barge into the CEO's office. You have a reputation to maintain."
<—"Why bother saying it? Want me to prepare some wine?"
"No need. Just block the entrance. We'll use it for about an hour."
Amidst a teasing laugh, Gyeon ended the call and felt Yuin looking at him.
"Why?"
"Who is CEO Seo?"
It seemed she was not just absent-mindedly staring, but actually paying attention. Always cute, that one.
Gyeon chuckled lightly before responding.
"The CEO of SJ Hotel."
"……What?"
"The fiancé of the woman Nam Yuin misunderstood last time."
"……Oh, that friend…… is the CEO of SJ Hotel?"
"Yeah."
Ah. Yuin let out a small sigh-like sound.
"So, we're going to that hotel now?"
"Yes."
"There's ice cream there?"
"Ice cream is in the back."
As he gestured to the back seat, Yuin’s head followed and then turned back with a somewhat complex expression.
Unaware of Gyeon's promise not to expose Yuin to strangers, she seemed confused about why they would go to a hotel to eat ice cream he'd bought.
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?
Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?
Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.
The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.
Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
