“Ugh, so annoying, really……!!”
After wrapping up the shooting, Yul Li hopped into the van, her voice full of irritation as she flung her phone carelessly.
The manager and stylist, already in the van, were taken aback, but Yul Li didn’t care.
She couldn’t control her emotions.
“What are you doing here?”
The first words In Ho directed towards me.
He had been with his wife all along, but his tone suggested he had been unaware of my existence.
It hurt my pride so much that even hours later, I still felt a chill.
I had never imagined enduring such humiliation, even after hearing that In Ho’s wife had come to the filming set, and walking up to them of my own accord.
I felt a surge of satisfaction up until I greeted her.
Her eyes looking at me were filled with confusion and a sense of defeat.
After all, it would be strange if a commoner didn’t feel inferior against me, Yul Li.
But with In Ho’s arrival, everything had turned upside down.
“I’m sorry. You must’ve waited a long time.”
“Let’s go. You look really tired.”
In Ho’s voice towards his wife was filled with an affection I had never heard before.
Was that all?
His eyes looking at his wife were dropping honey as if they contained a honey jar.
The one taken aback by this was his wife.
‘Was her name Su Yeon?’
Yul Li clenched her hands on her lap as she repeated Su Yeon’s name.
The sight of In Ho, who hadn’t spared me a glance, and the woman with a flustered face, was embedded in my brain, refusing to fade away.
With every replay, more force squeezed between my fingers.
“Ugh. So shitty, really.”
A string of curses slipped out of my mouth without any consideration.
To Yul Li, In Ho was that kind of man.
From the moment I first saw him, I yearned for him, and even though I knew I couldn’t have him, I couldn’t let him go.
When In Ho was the center of my thoughts, I couldn’t be rational for a moment.
Even though I knew I couldn’t have him, I yearned for him.
I was unable to resist my desire to possess him in every moment.
And today, that desire had reached its peak.
“What time is the shoot tomorrow?”
The sharp voice of Yul Li was directed towards Si Woo, who was sitting in the driver’s seat.
He, who had been glancing around uncomfortably, jerked as if he’d received an order and quickly responded.
“It starts from 1 P.M.”
Yul Li, who had nodded towards Si Woo, then turned her eyes towards the stylist, Ji Yeon.
“There’s a kissing scene tomorrow, right?”
“Yes.”
Ji Yeon, who had been carefully watching, nodded and answered.
Only then did Yul Li lean back comfortably on the car seat and look for the script.
A bright smile played around her lips as she examined the scheduled scene.
The scene described on the script was about a man and woman sharing a kiss.
((())) ((())) ((()))
In Ho was sitting on the living room sofa, his eyes wandering around with a look of discomfort.
Wherever his gaze landed, there was Su Yeon.
As soon as they got home, she was bustling about. From the bedroom to the kitchen, then from the living room to the bathroom, she was constantly on the move.
Was she always this restless?
He thought hard, but couldn’t come to a conclusion.
For the past year, he had lived without paying much attention to Su Yeon.
So, he had no idea how she spent her time at home.
“Sigh……”
In Ho couldn’t hold back a sigh that welled up in his throat.
Looking back, he had been a thoughtless and terrible husband to Su Yeon.
Living in the same house, he hadn’t shown any interest in how she lived. Could there be a worse husband than this?
But back then, he had thought it was fine.
He had blamed everything on Su Yeon for ruining their smooth married life.
Every day was a burden.
The Su Yeon obsessed with pregnancy, the mother who complained to him every other day.
With the shaky foundation of his stable acting life due to his marriage, everything he had accumulated so far was becoming unstable.
In Ho just wanted to maintain the steady flow of his life.
To do so, there were definitely times when he paid more attention to Su Yeon.
However, every time, all she talked about was pregnancy.
She became particularly sensitive during her ovulation period, as if everything would be solved if she just got pregnant, and she was stressed out as if the world was collapsing when she missed her ovulation day.
In Ho found it difficult to understand Su Yeon like this.
Consequently, a gap gradually grew between the married couple, who were not at all bad, and at some point, they ended up not knowing much about Su Yeon like this.
“…….”
Watching the busy Su Yeon, In Ho felt stifled.
He wanted to talk to Su Yeon.
When did she start going to the Seongbukdong house without my knowledge, and why has she never told me even when she was treated like that by my mother?
He was curious about more than one or two things.
However, it was very difficult to mention the question he should have asked naturally.
“…….”
In Ho silently observed Su Yeon a little longer.
She was still moving without a break.
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.”
