Seong Min squinted to figure out who he was.
It was that guy from earlier. The protagonist of Shin Yeon’s gossip.
“The taxi dropped me off here, and here is a convenience store near my house.”
Suddenly, Do Jun’s gaze met Seong Min’s.
“Yes.”
His gaze made him aware of something.
Do Jun spat out a brief polite word.
“If you’ve come, act like you know. Why are you staring at me from a distance like that?”
I was genuinely startled.
It was Shin Yeon who had left Do Jun behind a while ago.
I couldn’t help but be surprised at the sudden encounter with him.
Shin Yeon, laden with guilt, was stammering in confusion.
“I thought you were waiting to applaud.”
Huh?

“I thought it looked like the manager was proposing publicly in front of the convenience store.”
Public proposal?
Again, ah, Shin Yeon sighed shortly and looked at Seong Min in front of her.
His expression was clearly complicated to anyone.
“Oh, right. Because of that, brother……”
Her hesitation was turning into embarrassment.
Asking Seong Min was embarrassing enough, but to do so in front of Do Jun…
Too many words had been uttered to say it was nothing now.
Oh well, I don’t care.
“I was wondering if you could go to a wedding with me tomorrow.”
“A wedding?”
“Yes. As a boyfriend.”
All the while Shin Yeon was talking, she studied Seong Min’s expression, but she could read nothing.
Do Jun was still looking down at Shin Yeon with a crooked posture.
“A boyfriend?”
“More specifically, pretending to be a boyfriend? Shall we say……”
Only then did Seong Min, who had understood Shin Yeon’s words, smirk and give a hollow laugh.

He finally understood her asking him to act as her boyfriend tomorrow if he had the time.
Shin Yeon, who had braved the embarrassment, said the remaining words.
“I’m going to a wedding tomorrow, and my exboyfriend might be there……”
“Oh, that person.”
Seong Min, the only one of Yeon Soo’s colleagues to share her innermost thoughts, knew about her past.
In the early days of joining the company, Shin Yeon, still sharp due to the remaining scars, had many discussions with him and often sought advice on various relationships.
“I know this is really childish and funny, but just a little……”
It was hard to spit out the tangled words neatly.
Probably out of embarrassment.
It felt like revealing a part of her heart she wanted to hide.
“But don’t feel burdened at all, brother! It’s so sudden, tomorrow, so if you have work……”
“I’ll go.”
He calmly picked up the words that were recklessly spat out.
“Just tell me what time and where to go.”
He didn’t know why.

Shin Yeon had a feeling of numbness.
Perhaps it was because he seemed to have lightly solved something that she had been pondering for a very long time.
“Let’s go together.”
She lost her words at his tender yet firm gaze.
There was a moment of silence due to an odd sensation, and soon she regained her senses.
“Ah … Th, thank you.”
“If you’re grateful, instead of coffee, buy me a meal next time.”
“Of course! I’ll buy meals and coffee! Thanks for real.”
She was grateful for him, accepting her shameless request so lightly.
Shin Yeon sparkled her eyes and smiled.
“Let’s go.”
Over Shin Yeon’s lighthearted laughter, Dojun’s cold words landed.
“It’s late.”
Dojun, with his hands in his pockets, was still slovenly.
His attitude had been subtly nagging at Sungmin, who slightly tilted his head.
“Ah, right. It’s already time……”
Shin Yeon, who checked her wristwatch belatedly, picked up her bag.

“Brother, you should go in quickly. It’s too late because of me.”
“I’ll take you to the front of your house.”
“No, it’s right here.”
“It’s still dangerous. It’s late.”
Shin Yeon, who was having a conversation, took a large step toward Dojun’s side.
“I can go with the new employee.”
Sungmin, next to Dojun, looked at Shin Yeon with a strange expression.
“With the new employee? Together?”
Dojun, who had been watching their affectionate tussle, let out an indifferent voice.
“Yes. We live together.”
Shin Yeon reflexively thumped Dojun’s arm.
She’s crazy, really. Speaking like that.
“Ah, brother, same building! We live in the building, not together!”
Dojun, who realized he was hit, made an absurd expression, but Shin Yeon’s gaze was firm.
Even if you’re not the chairman’s son but the chairman himself, you shouldn’t speak like that, right?
“Ah, I see. I wondered why.”
“Why did you wonder?”
“Because you two looked close. Both of you.”
Where……did you see that?
She felt awkward.
“I’ll go in then.”
“Yep, brother. I’ll send you the mobile wedding invitation.”
Then Sungmin turned his body toward Dojun.

“See you again, newbie. As you live in the same building as Shin Yeon, I think we’ll see each other often.”
Sungmin smiled at him with a gentlemanly expression.
Dojun read his expression in the moment of silence.
“I suppose so.”
As much as the enigmatic expression of Sungmin, Dojun was not an easy character to read.
“Goodbye, brother.”
As Shin Yeon said goodbye, Sungmin turned around with a regretful expression.
Shin Yeon waved until he receded into the distance.
As Sung Min climbed into the car, Shin Yeon started heading home.
“Was it because of that man? The reason you left me?”
She momentarily forgot the night had fallen.
No, perhaps she simply wanted to forget.
With only Do Jun left, Shin Yeon’s pace quickened significantly.
“Shin Yeon, can you stop for a moment?”
In front of the office building, devoid even of the lights from the convenience store, the night was full.

There was no place to avoid anymore.
What place to avoid, it’s next door from the beginning.
Finally, Shin Yeon turned around and faced the night’s Do Jun.
“Tell me. Why did you leave me?”
His gaze was wistful, tugging at her heartstrings.
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
Synopsis:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?
Want to see how he flirtatiously pursues the female lead?
Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.
The female lead is righteous, positive energy-filled, kind, a holy mother.
Let’s see how two people with extreme personalities come together~
