At the sudden comment, Yeo Woon looked at Lee Do Yoon.
Who’s calling who cute, this little guy?
When Yeo Woon stared at Lee Do Yoon in disbelief, he grinned. His refreshing smile made him seem like a youthful comic book hero.
“Isn’t it hard to film with Seo Ah?”
I find Seo Ah scary. Lee Do Yoon added in a voice that only Yeo Woon could hear.
Yeo Woon recalled the occasional chilly atmosphere on the set but thought it unnecessary to elaborate, so she dodged the question.
“As Seo Ah is so good at her job, there’s nothing difficult for me.”
“Oh… Sister, you’re kind.”
Lee Do Yoon grinned as if he knew everything and then offered his glass again.
Why is this so fast?
Lee Do Yoon tended to drink quickly. Trying to match him, Yeo Woon found herself already on her third glass.
Perhaps because it was a highproof liquor, heat quickly rose to her face.
Feeling that it wasn’t right, Yeo Woon poured herself a cup of water to drink. Then she suddenly remembered something Director Choi Hyun had said earlier and asked Lee Do Yoon.

“But what favor are you repaying? What did Seol Ji Oh help you with?”
“Oh, that. But is it okay to tell you?”
Lee Do Yoon glanced briefly towards Director Choi Hyun.
Director Choi Hyun was deep in conversation with Seo Ga Ram. Lee Do Yoon shrugged his shoulders and said.
“Well, since you’re also part of our agency, I’ll just tell you. When VF provides drama production support, they include a clause to cast one of their actors in a leading role. The historical drama I’m currently filming, and Seo Ah’s ‘Office Trap’, are like that.”
Yeo Woon recalled things she had heard on set. The rumor that they had cast Han Seo Ah because of the investment was actually true.
“But the final decision maker is Ji Oh.”
Yeo Woon’s eyes widened.
The final decision maker?
“What does that mean?”
“He’s involved in everything from selecting the project for investment to casting. He’s the director.”
Yeo Woon was momentarily stunned.
Seol Ji Oh had clearly told her that he was a nominal director.
Was that not the case?
“So everyone is trying so hard to be in Ji Oh’s good graces. I thought you knew that too? Didn’t you?”
“Ah… I didn’t know.”
“Really?”
Lee Do Yoon looked at Yeo Woon as if surprised, murmuring that we should be honest with each other.

“Pardon?”
When Yeo Woon asked back because she didn’t hear him properly, Lee Do Yoon shook his head, lightly laughed, and spoke.
“Well, anyway, he gave me and Seo Ah the opportunity this time, so this gathering is meant to show our gratitude.”
“Ah…”
“But sister, why are you drinking water?”
Lee Do Yoon noticed Yeo Woon’s glass filled with water and drank it himself.
You should be drinking alcohol. He filled Yeo Woon’s glass with alcohol, cutely urging her to drink quickly. Yielding to Lee Do Yoon’s insistence, Yeo Woon gulped down the alcohol.
Ah, this isn’t good.
If I drink a little more, I’m really going to get drunk.
Lee Do Yoon gazed at Yeo Woon for a moment, then suddenly lost his appetite. Then he stood up from his seat.
“I’ll be back in a bit. Do you smoke too, by any chance?”
Yeo Woon shook her head at Lee Do Yoon, who was miming smoking a cigarette.
“I’ll be right back.”
With a mischievous smile, Lee Do Yoon poked Yeo Woon’s cheek with his finger and left the room.
Phew.
What is he doing?

Yeo Woon stared at the door that Lee Do Yoon had exited through, surprised at his touch.
Just then, Seol Ji Oh, who had been sitting across from her, suddenly moved to the seat next to Yeo Woon.
“Drink some water.”
Speaking in a barely audible voice, Seol Ji Oh handed Yeo Woon a cup of water. The moment his hand touched hers, Yeo Woon stared at him in surprise.
Seol Ji Oh gestured for her to drink quickly with an impassive face.
Yeo Woon held the cold water in her mouth. The sensation of the cold water made her feel more alert.
“Be careful. He’s the type to take advantage of women.”
Seol Ji Oh spoke into Yeo Woon’s ear. His voice, mixed with his breath, tickled her strangely, causing Yeo Woon to slightly furrow her brows.
Was he telling her to be careful of Lee Do Yoon?
Yeo Woon met the gaze of Seol Ji Oh’s dark pupils.
“What do I have to be careful about? It would be different if it was Seo Ah or Ga Ram.”
Yeo Woon doubted that she would be noticed next to those glamorous beauties. At her words, a fleeting, incredulous smile crossed Seol Ji Oh’s face.

“Do you think you’re persuasive when you’re dressed provocatively and talking like that?”
Yeo Woon turned her head in surprise at Seol Ji Oh’s words. Her face, flushed red, looked like a ripe persimmon.
“I don’t usually wear clothes like this!”
“…Then, that’s a relief.”
Seol Ji Oh mumbled like he was sighing, then rummaged through his pocket, took out a cigarette, stood up, and left the room.
Yeo Woon watched Seol Ji Oh’s retreating figure, then turned her head. Just then, her eyes met with Han Seo Ah’s, who had been looking at her.
Han Seo Ah, wearing a black tube top dress that clung to her body with a white jacket thrown over, obviously looked more dolled up than usual.
“Sister.”
“Yes?”

The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
