The Young Boss (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 90
“…Someone with nothing impressive at all keeps acting like they’re so great.”
Bo Ra clenched her teeth and muttered, glaring straight into Si Hyeon’s eyes.
Just as expected. Si Hyeon sighed.
“Yes, you’re right. Can I boast about my money? My family background? Or even my looks? So tell me, exactly what part of me is ‘acting great’?”
Genuinely puzzled, Si Hyeon asked. Bo Ra twisted her pretty lips.
“Those photos you took—if you’d just gone ahead and released them, you could’ve ruined my life anytime. Yet you never did. You never even spread rumors at the company that the broken engagement was my fault.”
“So what about it?”
“You, with nothing to your name, always putting on airs—so aloof, so elegant, so superior! That’s what pisses me off. Got it?”
Si Hyeon was speechless.
“So you’re angry… because I didn’t ruin your life?”
But Bo Ra was serious.
At first, she’d thought Si Hyeon had told her close colleague Lee Mi Ju. But later she found out Mi Ju hadn’t known anything at all.
Afterward, rumors had spread at the company—“Maybe Miss Lee Bo Ra was the reason Miss Kang Si Hyeon broke off the engagement”—but Kang Si Hyeon hadn’t started those either.
Someone had seen Kim Woo Jin’s mother talking to her and jumped to conclusions. If Kang Si Hyeon herself had said anything, the details would’ve been far more specific.
In short, Si Hyeon had kept her mouth shut from beginning to end. And that wounded Bo Ra’s pride so deeply she couldn’t stand it.
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.”
