“Do Jae-kyung, the head of the headquarters?”
As Bomi’s voice rose a ton and her face lit up as if on fire, she split into laughter.
Why is this person here?
“I’ll give you a ride.”
“It’s okay.”
To get to the bus stop or subway station, she had to walk quite a bit downhill, but Bomi’s heart pounded at the thought of being suspected of her relationship with President Hwang Min-jun.
If he asks why I’m here, what should I say?
Did he happen to see me leaving President Hwang Min-jun’s house?
Should I mention my Cat Mom activities?
“You’ll have to walk quite a bit.”
“Thank you for your concern, but walking is better than taking a car.”
Bomi bowed her head slightly in greeting and quickened her pace.
“Representative Han Bomi.”
Ha. When did you build a wall, protecting yourself with a tearful face?
Jae-kyung followed Bomi, driving slowly.
“It’s not a request.”
“Yes?”
“Don’t make me say the same thing again.”
While Jae-kyung was in a confrontation, a yellow sports car came up the hill from the opposite side with loud music.
Yeon Ga-jin, President Hwang Min-jun’s nephew and the son of Madam Hwang.
The man driving turned his head, glancing at Jae-kyung’s car, and when his gaze reached beyond, he discovered Bomi.
Crunch!
“Oh, sh*t.”
A sigh mixed with profanity escaped from Ga-jin’s mouth.
“Han Bomi! You!”
The moment the yellow sports car came to a stop, the rear seat door of Jae-kyung’s car opened.
“Head of the headquarters. Please.”
Although Jae-kyung clearly said for her to get in.
“Hurry… please start driving.”
This wasn’t the plan.
Bomi’s desperate voice perplexed Jae-kyung.
What is she doing? She refuses when she wants, acting like a chauffeur?
When Ga-jin got out of the car, Jae-kyung inadvertently pressed the accelerator and started the car.
“Representative Han Bomi. What’s going on?”
“I’m sorry. You can drop me off anywhere.”
When the bus stop came into view, Bomi finally seemed to calm down, placing her hands on her chest and letting out a long sigh.
“Where do you live?”
“Ah… just drop me off here. I’ll take the bus.”
“Then I should charge you for the ride.”
“Uh… well.”
Bomi stammered in embarrassment.
“Do you intend to ride for free?”
“No! It’s definitely not like that.”
When Bomi shook her head, her short hair fluttered.
“I’ll treat you to a meal next time.”
“When will that be?”
“Head of the headquarters is busy, and we won’t have many chances to meet at the company… Is a meal too much? How about I treat you to take-out coffee?”
Her chattering was quite… Jae-kyung raised an eyebrow.
What am I thinking?
Probably because of that business card.
He was so immersed in her voice that he even forgot about the headache that felt like pounding his head with a hammer.
“……. So, for those of you who have watched until the end, please shout ‘NaraeTory’ when you meet Han Bomi. I’ll treat you to a refreshing iced Americano.”
Coffee being offered to just anyone… Something about it bothered Jae-kyung.
“I guess you like treating with coffee.”
That discomfort was undoubtedly due to the relationship between President Hwang Min-jun and Representative Han Bomi.
It was necessary to confirm what kind of relationship they had.
“Ah… Yes. Do you happen to dislike coffee?”
Bomi blurted out nervously with a tensed face. Should I just let it go?
“I prefer a meal over coffee.”
Upon Jae-kyung’s response, Bomi’s thoughts were in disarray. It was clearly an atmosphere of dislike towards herself… Why? Why?
“A meal is good.”
Crazy. No matter how urgent it was, it felt like entering a tiger’s den to avoid a fox.
“Then, when is a good time…”
“Since I have some time now, let’s go for a meal.”
“Now? With me?”
A meal now! Oh my goodness. It’s been over an hour since I had a silent meal, staring at a bowl instead of a face with Min-jun… You want me to do it again?
“Then, who should we eat with?”
Jae-kyung turned around to look at Bomi sitting in the back seat.
I get it. I get it, so don’t look at me like that with those eyes.
It’s uncomfortable… Like a rabbit driven into a tiger’s lair, he crouched down.
This relationship was entirely in favor of Jae-kyung, just like his relationship with Hwang Min-jun.
“That’s right. Since I’ll be treating, we should eat together. I’ve already been rude enough to sit in the back seat like this…”
Thinking about President Hwang Min-jun, Jae-kyung should never have become entangled personally, just like his relationship with Hwang Min-jun.
If only Yeon Ga-jin wasn’t there at that time…
Bomi was one of the people she wanted to avoid in her life.
While Bomi was answering, the car moved briskly and entered the parking lot of a certain Korean restaurant. At the entrance, several luxurious sedans like Jae-kyung’s were parked.
Following Jae-kyung, who opened the door and went in familiarly, she hurriedly followed behind like a duckling chasing its mother. If it were heaven, they would walk at her pace to match Bomi’s.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
