“Yesterday on ‘Debate 100 Minutes'”
“New memes of Attorney Kwon Jun Hwi are out!”
Subsequently, up came a flurry of Kwon Jun Hwi’s close-up captures from the broadcast.
‘Stop! Please stop!’
Yeon Woo desperately wanted to tie the hands of Ji Hye, who was gleefully sending messages, unaware that the subject of the photos was right beside her.
“Yeon Woo, the comparison chart for internal reporting…”
“Yes? Yes!”
He abruptly stopped talking. A sense of foreboding began to build.
Did he see it? She quickly flipped her phone over. He couldn’t have seen, right?
Even if he did, he might not have realized they were his photos.
“What’s the matter, Attorney Kwon? Why stop talking?”
Urged by Attorney Yang, Jun Hwi resumed, his voice strained.
“Please summarize it into a 1-page PowerPoint, including the fees we’ve charged P Automobiles over the past year.”
“Yes, Attorney.”
The meeting eventually ended.
The situation room quieted down again. Everyone appeared to return to their tasks.
“Yeon Woo.”
While she was busily searching for data on the company portal, Jun Hwi called her softly.
‘Searching for the PowerPoint already?’
Grumbling internally, Yeon Woo pushed her laptop towards him and drew her phone, notebook, and pen closer. Suddenly, Jun Hwi tapped her phone.
‘What? What’s wrong?’ she asked with her eyes. He signaled with his eyes: ‘Flip it over.’
She was busted. He had seen the photos. ‘Ji Hye, that girl…!’
Refusing would lead to him consulting with Attorney Yang loudly, which she dreaded more.
So, clenching her teeth, Yeon Woo flipped her phone over to show the screen.
For about 2 seconds, Jun Hwi scanned the screen, then simply continued talking about the PowerPoint.
Yeon Woo suppressed her urge to tear her hair out, diligently taking notes. Of course, she flipped her phone back over.
How could she fix this? Lost in thought, Jun Hwi messaged her first.
She clicked the vigorously blinking chat window with trembling hands.
“Why are you collecting someone’s photos?”
‘Ah. How do I explain ‘community’ and ‘memes’ to a man who’s not interested in trends?’
She needed to clear the misunderstanding first and typed her response.
“They’re not mine, a friend sent them to me.”
“A friend? Who? Why does your friend have my photos?”
“Um, you know you’re famous, right? From TV appearances.”
She was hurriedly typing a reply when Jun Hwi responded even faster.
“If you need photos, just ask me.”
“Don’t collect them sneakily like a pervert.”
‘What? Pervert…!’
Yeon Woo abruptly stood up.
Pervert? Her? How unfair!
Thinking of rushing to Ji Hye’s office to confront her, she caught Attorney Yang’s puzzled look.
“Shall we open a window? It’s really stuffy.”
Saying so, she noticed Jun Hwi, head down, fiddling with his temple. He was definitely laughing.
“Yeon Woo, are you sleep-deprived these days?”
“No? Why do you ask?”
“Your face looks all rough and stubbly.”
Saturday. Sitting face to face in a café, Kyung Ah threw a genuine fast ball filled with real concern.
“Really? Are you not feeling well?”
“From afar, it looks fine, but up close… um, it looks a bit dull. Do you take collagen supplements?”
“I haven’t been taking any of those.”
I knew it. Muttering to herself, Kyung Ah took out a couple of collagen packets from her bag and handed them to Yeon Woo.
“Try mine. It’s different in your 30s compared to your 20s, right? You really need to take care of your skin. Look at me. Even after going to the skincare clinic, the recovery is just not the same.”
“You go to the clinic? Ji Hye was looking into getting some laser treatments.”
“Laser treatments are good occasionally. It’s time for you to start taking care of yourself, Yeon Woo. You had the best skin among us. Let’s maintain it. Maybe change your makeup to something more vibrant.”
Really? My face looks like that?
Thanks to her, Yeon Woo spent the rest of the weekend glued to the mirror. Kyung Ah’s comment lingered in her mind.
It was true that she hadn’t worried much about her skin since it had always been good. But looking closely, it seemed like fine lines were appearing.
But the most troubling part was different.
‘Looks fine from afar but not so much up close!’
‘The proximity is indeed too close.’
With a face pack on, she naturally thought of the person she’s been seeing up close these days.
“Ah. No way.”
Yeon Woo shook her head vigorously, trying to shake off the thought of Kwon Jun Hwi intruding on her precious weekend. ‘No way’, she denied. Yet, the next day, her makeup pouch was unusually full.
A hydrating mist, a highlighter that brightens the under-eye area, and a moisturizing lip gloss recommended by Kyung Ah.
With her pouch as prepared as her heart, she felt more confident.
A Monday started off well with her new items.
Checking her reflection in the bathroom mirror, she was satisfied until she saw Attorney Hong Yu Kyung from the same situation room washing her hands next to her.
“Hello, Attorney.”
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
