Creepy…
So he pretended not to be able to use the copier with me, and then he fixed the copier in the secretary’s office?
Unbelievable.
“Then why am I the one giving it?”
You could just do it all…right?
A feeling of the ramen I was eating rising up.
“Because you’re good at it.”
It was quite an experience to hear such touching praise from a rookie who had just joined the company three months ago.
It was dumbfounding.
“Miss Shin Yeon, you’re good at your job, it’s been famous since my rookie training.”
In the company, Yeon was quite famous. The main reason was her competent skills, good enough to get a shortterm promotion to section chief.
Due to the nature of the advertising company, once the results showed, all employees evaluating the project was no different.
Over the past five years, Yeon stood out more than anyone and produced noticeable results.
“The projects you led were used as educational materials in the company.”
Of course, her appearance was also a contributing factor to her fame.
Rather than a flashy impression, it was a fresh face that anyone would say was pretty, without any likes or dislikes.
She had a threedimensional facial features on a very small face.
Her personality was so easygoing that before she met Park Jin Woo in her undergraduate days, she had quite a few men approaching her.
Her lips, which always turned red without applying anything, always gleamed red whenever she spat out complaints.
“Praise… right?”
“Yes. It’s praise.”
Yeon felt strangely anxious about the affectionate words that came out of his mouth.
In fact, it was inertia.
“So, I’m thinking of sharing more in the future.”
Whenever Seo Do Jun, not Lee Hyun Woo, spat out affectionate words, something ominous always followed.
Her anxiety about Do Jun’s affection was a learned result.
“What will you share?”
“Work. Our section chief, there’s no problem with giving you more work because you’re good at it, right?”
This damn chief. Shaking.
‘Section Chief Shin. Our rookie is good at his work, so we’re giving him more work. What’s the problem?’
It was precisely what this chief spat out towards the rookie during the meeting time.
From now on, when you get bitched at by this chief, I will laugh in your face as if to show off.
You’re like an ungrateful son.
Even though I shielded you.
“Section Chief Shin, whenever you need to do extra work, propose it. I’ll talk to the executives.”
“I’ll just eat my ramen.”
I shouldn’t have just started talking.
When he told me not to ask, I should have just quietly eaten my ramen.
“Why is Miss Shin Yeon so nosy?”
Quietly pouring water after finishing all his ramen.
As if to give her a drink, he handed her a cup of water.
“What?”
“You had a lot of advice for the rookie who can’t speak.”
“Ah… that’s right.”
Shin Yeon remembered that she once rambled on to him, thinking he was taking on too much work because he couldn’t refuse.
“No, rookie, if you do all of that, they’ll think it’s natural. If you don’t do it once, they’ll curse you immediately, that’s social life.”
Warnings about becoming a pushover if one remains silent.
“I know you’re full of passion as a rookie, but don’t overdo it.”
Warnings about burnout when one is too passionate.
“The company is not a place for selfrealization, but a place to earn money. You know that, right?”
Telling to moderate one’s efforts because a company is a place to earn money… ah, she messed up.
Shin Yeon bit her lower lip hard at the dizzying memory that popped up again.
“Uh, I just remembered my old times.”
“Old times?”
“Even before I joined the company, it was so frustrating. I would avoid any conflict and just accept even a little bit of unfairness.”
There was a time when she was like that too.
That period when she couldn’t easily refuse, cared about others’ opinions, and wanted to look good in their eyes.
The time when she believed that appearance was everything, and her own honest feelings were neglected.
At the mention of Park Jin Woo’s name that came to her mind again, Shin Yeon shook her head vigorously.
“Like a fool.”
Her regretful past wasn’t just about her relationship with Park Jin Woo.
In team projects, Shin Yeon did all the dirty work and even provided others with grades.
She didn’t want to create even a small conflict by excluding the name of a nonparticipating team member.
She swallowed her bitterness. She took the unfairness given to her as granted.
“That’s why I’m in the middle of a campaign not to live like that. Now.”
Even though she thought there was a problem, she didn’t try to confront it properly. The person who lowered my selfesteem was herself.
That also affected her love life and hurt herself. After realizing this, she decided to confront everything.
“Well, I know it’s overkill and unrealistic to say everything I want to do at work.”
Even if she did, she wanted to complain like others.
She no longer wanted to just keep her mouth shut and pretend to be fine.
“At least try to dodge it a bit, show some discomfort. And show some temperament.”
“Hmm, that’s true, but…”
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.
