Tae Hyuk calmly extended his hand, offering Na Young a seat.
“First, sit down.”
Na Young, with suspicious eyes, stared at him then walked to the sofa and sat down.
But she absolutely did not uncross her arms.
As if she wouldn’t uncross her arms until he made a convincing explanation.
Tae Hyuk began to explain according to her wish, after coughing loudly and clearing his throat.
How he got into such a rumor with Yoon Hye Won.
From the time when Yoon Hye Won was hurt because of a stalker, in great detail.
Emphasizing that Seung Jun was largely responsible for this.
“That’s how it happened.”
Even after finishing his explanation, seeing her still sitting there with crossed arms and staring at him, Tae Hyuk became anxious.
“Why didn’t you explain that the rumor wasn’t true at the time?”
As expected, she pointed out his handling of the rumor was wrong.
For that, he had to go back to the moment he was born.
How unlucky a fate he was born with.
So how wearisome it was to live with rumors attached.
“It’s bothersome.”
However, Tae Hyuk summed it all up in a very short sentence.
Of course, Na Young didn’t understand.
“So because it was bothersome, you just let people think you were dating Professor Yoon Hye Won?”
“We didn’t really date, it’s just that people said so.”
Tae Hyuk emphasized.
He never wanted to be involved with Yoon Hye Won even for a second.
“So, it’s the professor’s fault for not properly explaining it.”
Her words precisely hit the core, and Tae Hyuk could not deny it.
He never thought that his careless living would corner him this much.
Reflecting on his past, Tae Hyuk sincerely said.
“I won’t ever do that again.”
His answer was so absurd that Na Young chuckled.
She immediately got up from the sofa and walked towards the door.
Facing her back, who was just about to leave, Tae Hyuk asked.
“But I still have two chances with you, right?”
Na Young, holding the doorknob, turned her head and stared at him with a cold gaze.
“Just because you say it, doesn’t mean it is.”
Bang.
Na Young left just like that, only the sound of the closing door echoing emptily.
Tae Hyuk took out his cell phone and called Cha Hyun.
“What does it mean when she says ‘just because you say it, doesn’t mean it is’?”
[It means shut up.]
Tae Hyuk tilted his head completely back and closed his eyes tightly.
“Is it worth being so angry about a rumor that’s all in the past?”
[So, did the person disappear along with the rumor?]
“…….”
Although he had left, he had now returned again.
In the end, everyone involved in that rumor was now in this hospital.
“But dealing with Yoon Hye Won is too troublesome, it’s only going to give me a headache.”
In people’s eyes, Yoon Hye Won was a flawless doctor.
On the other hand, he was an endless poisonous professor, trying to find fault in her.
Hence, people were more likely to trust Yoon Hye Won’s words than his.
If he were to deny the rumors about him now, saying he never dated her, Yoon Hye Won might play the victim card, of a woman scorned.
Then, he would find himself in a worse situation than he is in now, and it would be over with Na Young.
[If that woman really is as malicious as you say, would she really just sit quietly and watch you date another woman?] At Cha Hyun’s words, Tae Hyuk shivered in fright.“So, what should I do?”
[Either accept her feelings.]
“Hey!”
Tae Hyuk genuinely yelled out in anger at Cha Hyun.
Na Young, who had left Professor Choi Tae Hyuk’s office, was walking faster than usual, her anger still not subsiding.
She was truly disappointed in Professor Choi Tae Hyuk.
It was largely his fault that Professor Yoon Hye Won was still behaving this way.
If he had cleared up the rumors properly at that time, it would have been neatly ended.
His excuse of being too bothered to deal with it was the most infuriating.
She was sure of what would happen to a man who was too bothered to deny a single statement of never having dated.
Thinking there’s nothing more futile than having high expectations of men, Na Young who was walking, found Seung Hee busily moving about, and stopped.
What’s the matter?
Na Young approached Seung Hee first and asked.
“What’s wrong with the gastrointestinal surgery department?”
Seung Hee led her to a corner and whispered.
“Eun Byeol has disappeared. So, everyone in the gastrointestinal surgery department is looking for her now.”
Na Young was also startled to hear that the most famous person in the hospital had suddenly disappeared.
“Disappeared? Could it be a kidnapping? Then we need to contact the police right away.”
It was not impossible, considering she was a celebrity.
“The manager said she usually disappears on her own. It’s not a kidnapping. If that’s the case, it’s big trouble.”
Seung Hee seemed to be overly concerned, even though Eun Byeol wasn’t her patient, and Na Young couldn’t leave her like this.
“Then I’ll help look too.”
Seung Hee hurriedly left to search for Eun Byeol, insisting it be kept a secret from others.
Na Young also moved to look for Eun Byeol.
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.”
