Yoon Ji, who she thought had left, came into the bathroom and closed the door.
“So, you’re making a movie with Director Kwak this time?”
“Yes, that’s how it turned out.”
“It seems like things went well? Your face is glowing.”
“Don’t mention it.”
Hae Joo stood awkwardly at Yoon Ji’s uncomfortable compliment.
In front of her, who was older and more experienced, she tried to keep a low profile.
“I was like that too. Thanks to me, Yoo Jin Han got a promotion.”
“……”
“Even after I fed him, he treats me like an old flame now?”
“……”
“Be careful. You could be discarded overnight.”
Hae Joo felt no emotion for Yoon Ji. So, instead of being inflamed here, she dealt with it flexibly.
“Senior, you are my role model. Thanks to you, I am also…….”
“You flatter quite well, huh?”
“……!”
“I heard you made a robber’s marriage. It’s not common, huh.”
“That’s not it.”
Yoon Ji, draped in luxury from head to toe, walked towards Hae Joo.
As the distance shortened, a strong perfume scent that pierced the nose disgustingly wafted.
“If you and your husband were in a marital relationship for 3 years, why did you live separately?”
“I explained all of that through a press release.”
“I know you hurriedly went to Chairman Park Do Jun’s house yesterday.”
“I had no choice.”
“Are you sure you married for love?”
With Do Jun, it was a marriage on paper.
Even that was instigated by his brother, Lee Jun….
Yoon Ji was trying to stir up a loveless marriage.

“Yes. I love him.”
If there was no love, she could just make it.
However, even at Hae Joo’s flat response, Yoon Ji wore a strange smile.
“Let’s be honest. You didn’t marry for love.”
“What are you talking about?”
“I heard something about Chairman Park Do Jun.”
“……!”
“You should be careful in the future.”
“I think you might have misunderstood something.”
“Really?”
There was nothing to gain from further conversation with Yoon Ji. She didn’t know what she knew, but she had to get out of this place right now.
“I’m busy, so I’ll leave now.”
Hae Joo left the restroom.
The chest filled with anticipation had since cooled off.
Inside the restroom, Yoon Ji’s creepy laughter resonated.
When she pretended not to hear and turned around, Jin Han came down the stairs.
“Hae Joo, you haven’t left yet?”
“Yes, Director.”
“You’ve worked hard today.”
“You’ve worked hard too, Director. Thank you.”
“Shall we have dinner together later?”
“I think today might be a bit tough. I haven’t even finished unpacking yet.”
“What about lunch tomorrow?”
Despite the evasive refusal, Jin Han did not stop.
It was difficult to outright refuse his suggestion of a meal to celebrate work going well.
“Then let’s eat with all the hardworking family members.”
“Anyway, see you tomorrow.”
Jin Han went up the stairs with a big smile. Then he watched Hae Joo completely leave the first floor and let out a sigh.

This time, he closely observed Hae Joo’s figure through the corridor window. From above, the light streamed from her long hair fluttering in the wind.
“See you tomorrow, Lee Hae Joo.”
Jin Han first heard about Hae Joo two years ago.
At that time, he was the team leader of the management team.
Suddenly, a friend contacted him saying there was a woman he was interested in. He pleaded with Jin Han to come along, saying the work was not easy.
‘Where is it that you’re asking me to go?’
‘I went to K store because I needed to buy something, and one of the employees there was really my style.’
‘You should handle that kind of thing on your own.’
‘I tried to get her number, but she bluntly rejected me.’
‘She dumped you.’
‘Stop saying that, and help me out a little. You’re the team leader at the agency, so getting her number should be easy, right?’
He reluctantly agreed to this earnest request.
Of course, he had no intention of setting his friend up with her. If she really was as pretty as he said, he thought he might offer her a casting opportunity.
The next day, just before closing time, he found the store where she was working.
At that moment, he completely forgot about his friend who was whispering by his side.
‘Is that her?’
‘Yeah, amazing, isn’t it?’
She was more captivating than any luxury item.

Her skin was as white as porcelain, and her clear eyes emitted an aura of mystique.
She was not the typical beauty.
She was truly a raw gem with her inherent beauty.
When was the last time his heart raced like this?
He had seen countless people who were considered attractive, but Hae Joo was special.
‘Hello, I’m from GN Entertainment. Would you consider acting?’
He didn’t know how much he was shaking as he said those few words.
However, Hae Joo only received Jin Han’s business card out of courtesy and did not contact him.
So, he visited her every day, giving her coffee and snacks to leave a good impression.
After about three months, Hae Joo finally responded.
‘You can stop now.’
‘Don’t feel obligated. I’m doing this because I want to.’
‘Really… can someone like me become an actor?’

My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
