Office Romance Scandal (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 47
My trembling eyelids wouldn’t stop shaking. Though my vision was blocked, I knew he was slowly approaching.
When his tickling breath brushed against me, the hot object touching my lips was unmistakably his.
Startled, I opened my eyes, but everything remained dark—his large palms covered them completely.
And then again—this time, a slightly longer kiss.
What if my feverish lips transfer to yours? What if my feelings become visible to you? What if I’m found out? Honestly, it’s better this way—my vision blocked by your hands.
When his large hands finally left my face, light returned to my eyes, mingling with a pang of disappointment. It took me a moment to meet his gaze—he was closer than I’d expected.
Just as I needed time to gather the courage to face you, I tried again now, adjusting to the restored sight.
“You know…”
His phone on the table rang. I stopped mid-sentence, my eyes fixed on the vibrating device.
Tae Hong ignored it completely, still focused entirely on Hae Jin—but she kept glancing nervously at the ringing phone.
“You should probably take that call.”
Though Tae Hong insisted it wasn’t necessary, seeing Hae Jin keep peeking at the phone, he reluctantly answered.
After picking up, Tae Hong listened briefly to the caller’s voice, glanced once at Hae Jin, then quietly ended the call with a simple acknowledgment.
It was obviously a call Hae Jin wasn’t meant to hear. Suddenly, she recalled a previous conversation he’d had.
Had it been about instructing someone—Seo Woo—to investigate something? Was this related?

After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
