“Hold it firmly at the bottom part. Otherwise, you’ll hurt your hand.”
Min Ji Wook, who bluntly blurted that out, turned around again. Yeo Woon watched his retreating figure with a smile.
Look at that. Still looking after me.
By now, Yeo Woon knew. Despite appearing cold and curt on the outside, Min Ji Wook was a warm person on the inside.
.
.
.
Soon they entered the main shooting. Min Ji Wook was staring at the 5inch monitor connected to the camera.
This scene absolutely had to get an OK sign in one go. Only then could they wrap up for the day.
Yeo Woon on the monitor spoke her lines with Cha Yeon Joolike expressions and tone, set fire to the prop, and swiftly threw it in the direction she had been told.
The prop landed exactly where he had instructed. A strange pleasure arose in Min Ji Wook, lifting the corners of his mouth.
The training was worth it.
Thanks to the poured gasoline, the fire flared up in an instant, and Yeo Woon watched the flames with an indifferent expression.
An expression and gaze completely different from the usual Yeo Woon.
Min Ji Wook focused on Yeo Woon’s face.
Her hair slightly scattered by the wind, Yeo Woon’s face shimmering in the reflection of the fiercely burning flames.
“Cut. OK!”
At the sound of Director Byun’s cut, Min Ji Wook finally snapped back to reality.
He didn’t even realize when the scene had ended, he had been utterly entranced.
A staff member on standby sprayed a fire extinguisher over the area where the fire had been. Director Byun, watching the monitor, wore a satisfied expression. Then suddenly, he threw his headphones and yelled.
“Wow. I really like the expression in your eyes! Yeo Woon, was that it?”
“Eh?”
“If you keep this up, you won’t go beyond Cannes, huh? You won’t win anything more than Best Supporting Actress!”
Yeo Woon, with wide eyes at the overwhelming praise, belatedly burst out laughing.
“Ah, director, you startled me! I thought you were angry because you threw your headphones!”
The surrounding staff members laughed at her adorable reaction. Everyone was already a bit relieved just by the fact that the nervewracking filming had safely ended.
Then, from the side, Kim Ji Chan let out a terrified voice.
“Huh! Is Director Min Ji Wook smiling now?”
“What?”
Only then did Min Ji Wook realize he was smiling.
In an instant, he dropped the corners of his mouth and looked at Kim Ji Chan with an icy expression.
Faced with Min Ji Wook’s fierce gaze that seemed like lasers could come out, Kim Ji Chan unconsciously took a step back.
“Ah, no. I must have seen wrong. Oh dear, I’m getting feeble these days. I’m seeing things……”
Kim Ji Chan rubbed his eyes and discreetly moved away from the spot. It was an escape for survival.
Once Kim Ji Chan disappeared, Min Ji Wook awkwardly raised his hand and rubbed the corners of his mouth.
Was I smiling?
He was completely unaware of it.
Why did I laugh? What for?
For a moment, Min Ji Wook ran his tongue inside his mouth and furrowed his brow. And then, he lifted his eyes to find Yeo Woon.
Yeo Woon’s face came into view. The image of Yeo Woon brightly smiling came into his sight like a single frame in a film.
A tiny tremor he felt in his heart.
For a moment, Min Ji Wook’s lips parted as if he realized something.
“Sigh…”
Everything started to make sense.
Why he had put up with the bother, especially when it came to Yeo Woon, all this time.

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.”
