“King Size Dad! Did you come to pick up Woojoo?”
“Yes. Our little one, did you listen well to the teacher and have a good time with your friends today?”
“Yes! Woojoo played very, very excitedly~.”
“Good job. That’s admirable.”
Kwon Chae Ha gently stroking Woojoo’s round head was hard to believe to be the cold man who had visited the island not long ago.
The smile on his lips and the affection dropping from his eyes were truly like a real father.
“Now, let’s get in the car quickly and go to mom.”
“Yes! King Size Dad~.”
Holding onto Kwon Chae Ha’s big hand firmly, Woojoo headed towards the car, while Jaeyoon simply stared blankly.
This was his first time experiencing this kind of shock, and he was dumbfounded for quite a while.
And one man was watching Jaeyoon’s reaction from a distance.
[Director. I followed him as you instructed, and Choi Jaeyoon came to the nursery.]
“Really? Did you say hello to the child?”
[No. I just watched from a distance. Then, Kwon Chae Ha appeared and took the child away.]
“Hmm~ Then what about Choi Jaeyoon?”
[He is just staring at the back of the car. Ah, he’s leaving now!]
“Good. Be careful not to be noticed. Keep watching. He’ll just return to the island anyway.”
[Yes. Understood.]
After hanging up, Baek Sa looked at the picture that my secretary just sent.
Upon examining the picture closely, indeed, Choi Jaeyoon’s expression was hilarious.
“Hmm. The feeling of being robbed of what he thought was his is quite disgusting, he must understand that now, right?”
With a little more provocation, this man could become a rather useful chess piece.
Just thinking of the gaze of Kwon Chae Ha who glared at me at the La Pleure party made my heart burn.
At least when Min Seol Won was not there, he did not look at me with such eyes.
Ever since that woman appeared, everything has gone haywire.
Biting his lips, Baek Sa made a resolution again.
“The bad one is Min Seol Won. The end result of coveting someone else’s is beyond one’s league, I’ll make sure to teach her a lesson this time.”
“Mum!”
“Woojoo.”
As Woojoo ran and hugged her, Seol Won looked at him with affectionate eyes.
Then she glanced at Chae Ha who was standing behind.
“Did you come to pick him up again?”
“Why, is it not allowed?”
“What about the company? It’s not even off work time yet.”
“Even a vice president has the right to take half a day off.”
With those words, Chae Ha naturally moved towards the refrigerator.
Then he took out an ice cream topped with full chocolate chips and waved it towards Woojoo.
“Is it hot, kiddo? Here, ice cream.”
“Wow! It’s a choco cone!”
Like a rabbit seeing a carrot, Woojoo’s eyes shone brightly and he ran over.
Seeing this, Seol Won expressed her concern and casually said.
“Are you not giving Woojoo too many snacks? I was wondering why his cheeks are getting plumper these days……”
“I didn’t give that much.”
“These past few days have been hot, so I’ve been giving him ice cream every day, and snacks after dinner.”
“Me?”
Looking towards Chae Ha, who shrugged as if he had no idea, Seol Won continued to express her worries.
“Since he got here, he’s already eating two bowls of rice…”
“Kids need to eat a lot to grow. Isn’t that right, kiddo?”
“Yeah! I want to grow tall like Dad!”
With chocolate smeared around his mouth, Woo Ju puckered his cute lips.
Seeing that made Seol Won not dare to say the halfeaten treat should be put away, and instead she just licked her own lips.
That’s when it happened.
“Huh…?”
A cool sensation unexpectedly touched her lips.
As Seol Won widened her eyes and looked at Chae Ha, he was smirking with a strawberry ice cream in his hand.
Then Chae Ha offered the ice cream he had just touched her lips with.
“Here, let’s share it equally among the three of us.”
“Yeah! Mom and Dad should eat ice cream with Woo Ju too!”
Seeing the innocent joy of Woo Ju, Seol Won could not refuse and took the ice cream.
Actually, she was a bit thirsty too.
Sitting side by side enjoying the ice cream, the three of them exchanged casual conversation.
“How’s work going?”
“What?”
“Your work. The flower festival.”
“Oh…”
Seol Won did not expect Chae Ha to ask about such a thing, so she awkwardly focused her gaze on the ice cream.
Then he added another question.
“You’ve been going to the flower shop every day lately, is there a lot to prepare?”
“Yes. The central garden is the main area, so there’s a lot to do from the planning stage. There’s also a time crunch.”
“Hmm. James gave you a big project. Have you decided on a theme yet?”
“Not yet. This is my first time doing this sort of work, so I’m having some trouble.”
As Seol Won earnestly answered, Chae Ha seemed to be lost in his own thoughts as well.
Kwon Chae Ha, who paid attention to her work and shared in her concerns.
Seol Won still had doubts, wondering if the man in front of her was not just a mirage.
Then a cheerful voice broke through the two of them.
“Mom! Woo Ju wants to decorate the garden too~.”
“Huh?”
Woo Ju, who had finished his ice cream and gotten up from his spot, was pointing beyond the living room window.
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.”
