Taming the Dangerous Lawyer Secretly (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 90
[I just clocked in.]
Jun Hwi wanted to ask why she hadn’t contacted him all weekend and whether her parents had left on their trip smoothly, but he typed out his questions and then deleted them all.
[Can we meet for lunch later?]
He figured he could just ask her in person, but Yeon Woo said she had new employee training at lunch and couldn’t make it.
[How about after work?]
[I have plans with friends tonight 😢]
Surely she wasn’t pushing him away because her parents objected.
A bitter taste filled his mouth. An unpleasant sensation ran down his spine. Growing restless, Jun Hwi even straightened his posture and furiously tapped away at his phone.
After several rounds of negotiation, they finally agreed to meet briefly after work—and only then did he feel the faintest bit of relief. Jun Hwi practically threw his phone down and took off his glasses, tossing them aside. His eyes stung.
······He never imagined he’d face a day like this, thwarted by someone’s opposition.
Worse still, it wasn’t just anyone—it was Yeon Woo’s own parents giving him a negative response, which made it a devastating blow.
These weren’t the kind of people he could simply ignore just because they opposed him, like he’d done with others his whole life.
How was he supposed to handle this? It was uncharted territory, something he was experiencing solely because of Kim Yeon Woo—there was no precedent, no legal code covering it.
He glanced at the clock: only 9:03 a.m. How long until quitting time, when he’d finally see Yeon Woo?
Jun Hwi unfastened his cufflinks, rolled up his sleeves, and mentally clocked out—his thoughts already racing toward the moment he could leave.
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.”
