Don’t you know that mental management of affiliated actors is also a manager’s job, even if it’s just a little bit?

Hyunsim’s smile was leisurely, but the intention to give a warning was not hidden at all. Even though they were both team leaders, it was a clear intention to remind her that they were in different leagues.

“How could I not know?”

“But why aren’t you doing it?”

Hyunsim’s tone, which started calmly, became a bit sharper with Youngin’s calm response. The smile that had been around her lips disappeared without her realizing it.

“Why do you think I didn’t do it? I did.”

“Did you do your best?”

“Yes.”

“…….”

Youngin’s answer was firm yet gentle. Since she didn’t respond aggressively, there was no need for Hyunsim to pick a fight anymore.

“Thank you for your concern.”

“SL and Hyesung are different in many ways. If you don’t know something, feel free to ask.”

“Yes.”

After Hyunsim finished her admonition and quickly left, she heard Haeyoon’s muffled voice from behind.
“If someone hears it, they might think our team leader is still an intern…….”

Hyunsim, in charge of the actor, was infamous among the staff for being arrogant, boasting about popularity as if it were his own. Lately, thanks to Heran’s popularity, he was carrying a lot of weight on his shoulders.

“A newbie is a newbie.”

Youngin remembered the day when she first revealed her age, and Hyunsim immediately said, ‘I’m two years older than her,’ and laughed.

“Why does the team leader specifically act like that?”

Even though it had only been three days since returning from overseas shooting, she couldn’t count how many ridiculous things he had said.

“Maybe he doesn’t like me.”

Youngin’s expression was quite calm.

Perhaps because she was accustomed to being disliked, even if someone hated her, she could let it go. She didn’t want to make an effort to look good, to be loved. As long as she kept people around who didn’t require such efforts.

For example…

“I’ll be late.”

Youngin hastily erased the face of the man that came to mind first and headed in the direction Hyunsim had gone.

As expected, Hyunsim was in front of the elevator.

Both of them had the same destination. The meeting room on the 3rd floor.

In 10 minutes, there would be a strategy meeting that everyone above the manager level was supposed to attend.

After a short wait, the elevator descended from above and arrived on the 5th floor.

Youngin followed Hyunsim into the elevator. The two stood side by side inside the elevator.

It was Sung Hyuk and Heran.

“Hello, CEO.”

Hyunsim greeted Sung Hyuk brightly and showed a slight smile to Heran. Since she knew that Heran had gone up to the CEO’s office, she wasn’t puzzled at all about why the two were coming down together.

Heran was the only actor attending the strategy meeting.

She had expressed her desire to attend the strategy meeting announcing mid- to long-term visions before deciding on a re-contract through Hyunsim yesterday, and he had accepted it. That was the reason why the two were coming down together.

Youngin just bowed to the two and turned around to stand in front of the door.

Thanks to Hyunsim, Youngin also knew about Heran attending the strategy meeting.

The static was cut by the gentle voice.

“CEO, if you’re free today, let’s have dinner together. Please treat me to something delicious.”

As the elevator arrived on the 3rd floor, Youngin quickly got off in the direction Hyunsim had gone.

Wondering what Sung Hyuk would say in response, she didn’t want to hear it. Even though there was no reason for the CEO not to have dinner with the affiliated actor, she felt uncomfortable hoping that he would refuse.

Forget about it. Forget about it.

Youngin repeated these words like a mantra as she entered the conference room and took her seat. A moment later, Heran and Hyunsim entered consecutively. Sung Hyuk’s figure was not seen.

Why hasn’t he come in?

At that moment, a message arrived.

A moment ago, what Heran said to Sung Hyuk was exactly the same. It meant that their dinner plans did not materialize, and furthermore, it implied that Sung Hyuk had declined.

What Sung Hyuk replied was a source of concern, but finally, Youngin felt at ease.

Youngin glanced around and typed a message.

She didn’t want to cut it off outright, and she couldn’t tell him to do that, so she sent a message as if throwing a tantrum. A bewildering reply came back.

What should she do with this guy?

Youngin let out a sigh mixed with laughter. A few seconds later, another message arrived.

After checking the message, Youngin raised her head, and Sung Hyuk, who was entering the conference room, came into view.

His face was very firm, as if asking when he had said something cheeky.

Seated in the chairman’s seat, he swept his eyes around with a restrained expression. His gaze lingered a bit longer on Youngin.

3 o’clock sharp.

Sung Hyuk announced the beginning of the meeting.

“We will start the meeting.”

Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife

I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!

Intro

When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.

After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.

Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.

Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.

At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.

Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.

The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.

He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.

[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
