Office Romance Scandal (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 65
“Chairman, as you know, this week will be difficult due to the project planning matter.”
Hae Jin simply wanted to hold on at least until Tae Hong returned from his business trip.
Just one week, that was all.
“Tsk tsk, Assistant Jeong. Are you really going to hide behind Moon Tae Hong forever? In the end, backup will be handled by Team Leader Moon anyway—could you possibly be busier than me?”
As expected, the other party wasn’t going to make things easy, and the moment Hae Jin showed the slightest opening, he came charging back with a counterattack.
She was trapped from all sides, with no escape in sight. How could an assistant possibly be busier than the chairman?
“Just tell me a time that works.”
Cornered by the other party’s relentless pressure, Hae Jin had no choice but to lift the calendar from her desk.
Of all days, it was the very first day of Tae Hong’s trip—the phone call came as if it had been waiting for this exact moment. A whole week without him.
Was she doomed once again to become just another piece moving on his board?
Above Hae Jin’s quiet sigh, Jun Tae’s voice layered itself once more.
“I’m not asking you to clear your whole day. Just lunch or dinner—let’s have a light meal together.”
As if he already knew exactly what she was hesitating over.
As if he were standing right beside her, watching her at this very moment.
Jun Tae shamelessly took advantage of Hae Jin’s hesitation.
Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!
――
This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”
