Yeonu laughed awkwardly and said to him.
“They’ve set the date for the production report. They said we can see the completed movie on the same day as the press conference.”
“Is that all? Honestly, tell me. Are you still involved with Min Ji-wook?”
Yeonu shook her head nervously and said.
“What involvement? It’s not like that.”
“Really?”
“Yeah, no!”
Then Yeonu’s phone rang again. Seol Ji-oh grabbed Yeonu’s phone with sharp eyes.
“What, Min Ji-wook again?”
But soon, he handed the phone back to Yeonu after seeing the text on the screen.
“Seo Garam.”
“Huh? They’ve arrived.”
Today was the day Seo Garam and Choi Hyeon were supposed to come over to the villa, so Yeonu quickly answered the phone.
Hearing Seo Garam’s loud voice from outside, Yeonu wondered if they had already arrived.
Putting the ingredients back in the refrigerator, Yeonu went outside.
“Yeonu! I’m here!”
Seo Garam jumped out of the car and shook hands with Yeonu. After that, he greeted Choi Hyeon, who got out of the car and started taking out luggage from the trunk.
Yeonu took Seol Ji-oh, who was filling charcoal into the grill, and approached the two.
“Wow. What’s this place? It’s really nice.”
Seo Garam looked around with his big eyes. But what surprised Yeonu more was Seo Garam’s attire. A long-sleeved striped T-shirt with jeans.
Was this Seo Garam’s dress code? The clothes had no holes anywhere, neither on the shoulders, nor the waist, nor the legs.
It looked a bit unfamiliar to see him completely covered with clothes.
Yeonu looked at Seo Garam with trembling eyes and then turned her gaze toward Choi Hyeon. He was also wearing a different color striped T-shirt with jeans.
Was this a couple look?
Yeonu found the two of them cute and burst into laughter. And she thought it was impressive that Choi Hyeon, who forcefully made Seo Garam wear such clothes, did a great job.
Choi Hyeon took out a large box from the trunk and confidently presented it to Seol Ji-oh.
“Here, a gift.”
“Thank you. Team leader.”
The box had “Robot Vacuum Cleaner” written on it. It was a satisfying gift for both the giver and the receiver, as it was the gift Seol Ji-oh had mentioned.
Seol Ji-oh accepted the gift and led the two inside the house. While he guided them around the house, Yeonu finished taking out the ingredients from the refrigerator and moved them outside.
Suddenly, Yeonu couldn’t help but laugh, feeling like the current situation resembled a housewarming for a newlywed couple.
It was just a coincidence that the timing worked out for them to invite everyone to the villa, but the word “newlywed” felt oddly ticklish.
At that moment, Seo Garam and Choi Hyeon, who had finished touring the house, approached.
“Wow, how did you know I’m hungry?”
“Yeah, did you buy the meat?”
“Oh, of course.”
Seo Garam confidently presented the meat. Yeonu paused for a moment, looking at the seemingly enormous amount of meat.
“Garam, do you know there are four of us?”
“Yeah, why?”
“To finish all this, it might take two or three days.”
“Oh, come on! Don’t worry; I’ll eat it all. I’m going to eat a lot, so don’t worry.”
Yeonu laughed while watching Seo Garam confidently speak. The four of them began helping each other set the table.
Soon, the sound of meat grilling spread through the garden, and dishes were placed on the table one by one.
Seated at the outdoor table, the four of them raised their glasses.
“Cheers!”
The sound of refreshing beer being swallowed echoed.
Although Yeonu couldn’t drink alcohol, she had a beverage instead, but just being with people after a long time made her feel excited.
“Wow, this is really like a world-class star. Honestly, I was surprised, especially by the stone wall. I thought it was a military base.”
“That’s right. But it’s nice. If you live in a place like this, it must be really healing.”
Choi Hyeon agreed with Seo Garam’s words.
“So when are you getting married?”
Yeonu was startled by Seo Garam’s sudden question.
Huh? Marriage?
When Yeonu turned her eyes to Seol Ji-oh next to her, he met her gaze and smiled sweetly.
“Whenever Yeonu wants.”
Without any hesitation, his response made Yeonu’s lips widen.
They had never talked about such things together…
Seo Garam shouted with strange excitement and playfully hit Choi Hyeon’s shoulder.
“Oh, my, it’s exciting!”
For no apparent reason, Choi Hyeon, who was patted on the shoulder, broke the mountain and spoke.
“Do we have to tell the company? At least, let’s give them notice three months in advance. What do you think?”
At that, Seol Ji-oh smirked and laughed.
“Do you think I’d get married without saying anything?”
Choi Hyeon narrowed his eyes.
“Somehow, you… I feel like you might.”
“What? Do you see me that way?”
At that moment, Yeonu was suddenly curious and asked Seol Ji-oh.
“Ji-oh, by the way, isn’t Team Leader Seok-young younger than CEO Joo?”
“Oh, right.”
“But why is CEO Joo called ‘hyung,’ and Team Leader Seok-young is addressed as ‘Team Leader’? Now that I think about it, you never said anything.”
Seol Ji-oh, chewing on the meat, nonchalantly said.

This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”

Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
