Tae Ha, now a secondyear high school student, stopped by the school library before the start of the morning classes.
The high school library was quite wellstocked for its kind. The number of books had increased significantly since he heard earlier this year that his father, Leon, had donated 100 million to the school library. Particularly, the books on web or app development.
Without ever having mentioned it, his father knew well about his son’s interests. Tae Ha picked up a few books on JavaScript, finding it strange.
“I like you.”
Suddenly, a deep voice came from behind, startling Tae Ha. Honestly, for about 0.1 second, he thought so.
‘Am I now being confessed to by a guy?’
When he turned around, he saw a schoolgirl in uniform standing beyond the bookshelves. The face of the male student standing in front of her with a nervous expression was familiar. He was a friend from Tae Ha’s class.
Ah, it wasn’t me. Tae Ha quietly chuckled. Recently, he had been receiving confessions so frequently that he momentarily misunderstood.
He had neither the hobby nor the interest to eavesdrop on others’ confessions. School studies and app development, and unrequited love were already on the verge of overloading Tae Ha’s mind.
Not wanting to disturb them unnecessarily, Tae Ha was about to silently leave the library.
“Then can you do me one favor?”
“What is it?”
“Can you give me Yun Tae Ha’s phone number?”
Hearing his name from the girl’s mouth, Tae Ha stopped in his tracks.
“Eh? I don’t know that either……”
The friend who had just confessed seemed to be in a bind.
“You’re in the same class as Yun Tae Ha. You can ask other kids, right?”
“But he doesn’t have any close friends, so the other kids probably won’t know either.”
But the girl was persistent.
“You said you like me. Can’t you do even that for me?”
Tae Ha had also received countless confessions so far. He couldn’t accept them, but he always appreciated the feelings of liking him. Because he himself had been liking someone for a long time, he knew what that feeling was like.
So despite his blunt personality, he was trying to reject them softly so that they wouldn’t get hurt. Saying things like he’s grateful but doesn’t have time now, or he wants to concentrate on studying since he’s a student, and so on.
But to ask for another guy’s phone number using the feelings of the one who had gathered the courage to confess their love to her.
Tae Ha quietly moved his steps and sneaked a peek at the girl between the bookshelves. He was curious about what kind of girl she was.
“Find out his phone number by tomorrow. Then, I’ll have a meal with you.”
The girl had a small face with compact features. But looking at her face, he didn’t find her attractive at all.
Although Tae Ha’s standard of beauty had been solely fixed on one woman for a long time, the words he had just heard were too terrible to find her attractive.
Wishing that the friend who had just confessed had come to his senses, Tae Ha wrote his name in the loan note, picked up the book he had borrowed, and quietly left the library.
It happened at lunchtime that day. That girl from the morning blocked Tae Ha’s way to the cafeteria.
“This is homemade. Will you eat it?”
The girl extended a lunch box to him, her cheeks slightly flushed. This was entirely different from when she had been confessed to by another friend in the morning.
Tae Ha quickly noticed that even her shy and trembling voice was all acting. If she was really shy, she wouldn’t do this in the hallway where everyone could see.
As expected, surprised voices could be heard here and there.
“Isn’t that Lee Bo Ra from class 6?”
“Wow. Is Lee Bo Ra confessing to Yoon Tae Ha?”
Judging by the reactions, it seemed she was quite a famous girl. Of course, Tae Ha didn’t know, and he had no desire to know in the future.
Without even glancing at the lunch box, Tae Ha said.
“Put it away.”
It was a cold remark he had never made to anyone who had confessed to him. Looking surprised, the girl looked at him, and Tae Ha repeated the same words.
“I said put it away.”
In front of all the children, the face of the girl who had been rejected turned bright red from her neck. Whether she did or not, Tae Ha hurried past her and quickened his way.
He had already erased the name of the person he had just heard from his mind.
((()))
“Ah, it was you.”
It was as if he had just recognized her. As soon as Bo Ra, who seemed suddenly pleased, looked up at his face,
“…Trash.”
Tae Ha said.
“You’re still the same, aren’t you.”
Seeing a smile even appeared on Tae Ha’s face, Bo Ra trembled her lips.
“What did you just say?”
She was the woman who had been called a goddess not only in her school days but also at work. But calling her trash.
“If you’re doing this because of Kang Si Hyun, I was also angry at you because…”
“It looks like you’ve completely misunderstood something.”
Tae Ha interrupted her.
“It has nothing to do with Kang Si Hyun, why I dislike you.”
“Then why on earth are you doing this to me?”
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.”
