The four people who were watching the confrontation between Yoo Junghwa and Oh Minjeong soon moved to the hospital.
The two women who arrived at the emergency room were given high-concentration oxygen to their lungs and underwent a precise diagnosis. While Soyeon and Dosoon were resting in their respective rooms, Seojun and Wonhu briefly came to the break room.
Both men were worried about the two women who were sleeping under the influence of the sedative. However, despite Seojun appearing calm on the surface, Wonhu, with a dark expression, showed signs of anxiety, from sighing repeatedly to continuously tapping the table with his fingertips. Moreover, seemingly upset, Wonhu, who had somehow emptied a water bottle in no time, spoke.
Crunch!
“If Oh Minjeong’s story is true, I can’t stand it.”
“What about you? How do you feel?”
“Haven’t you lost any feelings for Yoo Junghwa?”
“…….?”
“Oh, you’re originally like that. I forgot.”
As Seojun raised the corners of his lips artificially silent, Wonhu also smirked in response.
Taeseojun, who is he?
If the second one is rational, it’s pitiful. It seems to be selfish, self-centered, and full of self-love. So, even when he was in a special relationship with Yoo Junghwa, he was a guy who never revealed himself thoroughly.
Just seeing that, it was certain that Taeseojun’s current love surpassed several dimensions.
“Do you like Soyeon that much?”
“Yeah. I’m a man who lives for Soyeon, my only woman.”
“Taeseojun seems to look more like a person now. But when will you bring the child? No, more importantly, what about Eom Hyeonwoo, Tae Hyeonwoo, and the baby’s surname?”
“Well, I think both are fine.”
Seojun said, mixing a joking tone with a serious one.
He hasn’t thought about it that far yet.
But what became clearer with Wonhu’s question was that the child connecting him and Soyeon felt special.
However, it couldn’t be helped that the cart came before the horse. Therefore, if Soyeon wanted, it didn’t matter which side the child’s surname was. And more urgently, what was needed was to legally bind Soyeon as his wife.
“Wonhu, Wonhu.”
“Don’t call me cute. I get scared every time you call me that, you punk!”
Even the perfect Taeseojun had something he didn’t know. Seojun, who raised his thick eyebrows before asking, put a gentle smile on his face.
“A 4-year-old… What would he like?”
“Oh, even the great Taeseojun seems nervous. Thinking about meeting your son?”
“Well… a bit.”
“Hehe……”
With a clean, admitting voice, Wonhu teased, “Look at the moisture under your eyes!”
For a moment, Wonhu, who was about to shout, “Who are you?” smiled and tilted his head, fluttering. This kind of Taeseojun was unfamiliar, so Wonhu was somewhat flustered, but the unfamiliar attitude that felt the boy’s humanity was just as desirable.
“What do I know? Should I tell you my name since you’re asking so persistently?”
“Go ahead.”
“Boys naturally like superhero dads. How about Gold Iron Man? Character suits are well-made these days.”
“Do I have to wear that? For me…?”
Seojun’s gaze suddenly became crooked, as if he had briefly imagined it.
“Do I have to do such childish things?”
“It’s your first meeting. You have to give the child that much dream and hope, right? If you don’t want to, should I do it? I’m willing to do it even for a fifth cousin’s child.”
“…”
“At least show some sincerity. You’ve lived for four years without knowing your dad’s face.”
“…”
Seojun’s bewildered lips were firmly sealed straight.
Wonhu’s advice that if he couldn’t even sacrifice enough to wear a character suit for his child, and if he didn’t have that much sacrificial spirit, he didn’t deserve to be a dad, struck home.
This kid… I really hate him!
I really hate those murmuring lips too!
Why is he so sharp about being born three months later than me? Huh?
The irritated wrinkles on his forehead clearly expressed his annoyance. However, the situation under the table was completely different from that expression. Seojun’s long and straight fingers were already typing messages.
[Prepare the Gold Iron Man character suit quickly. Hyunwoo and I will wear it.]The dangerous Yangpyeong fire incident reached Chairman Tae’s ears at the Vancouver Shonessa Heights in less than half a day after it happened.
“What? Such a thing happened?”
“Yes, Chairman. If it weren’t for the youngest son, Miss Eom Soyeon might have been in big trouble.”
“So. Who on earth did such a thing?”
Tae Chairman was surprised by the report from Secretary Kang, who was sitting in the garden and enjoying the afternoon sun while sipping tea.
When male lead is the homewrecker
“I know she doesn’t love him.”
I’ve read the novel below twice already. Girls, I’m highly recommending it to you!
The female lead? Not a good person.
The second male lead? Not a good person.
The male lead? Willingly plays the third party, breaking up the female and second male lead’s relationship despite all the warnings from his friends—so yeah, he’s definitely not a good person either.
Basically, nobody in this novel is simple-minded or without scheming.
The female lead starts off as the male lead’s secretary, but don’t worry—later on, she takes over the company while the male lead steps back to support her. He won’t steal her spotlight, overshadow her, or dull her shine.
I love novels where men are out here snatching wigs, tearing each other down, and going to war just to win the female lead’s affection. And this is exactly that kind of novel. Most of Hai Dai Ran’s works have this dynamic. You’ll see the male characters’ emotions being pushed to the absolute extreme.
There’s even a scene where the second male lead exposes the male lead online for being a homewrecker. The brotherhood immediately gangs up on him, dragging him through the mud. I find it compelling —it completely flips reality on its head, where usually, women are the ones fighting over a man and getting torn apart by the sisterhood.
For me, female leads in the novels I read should only struggle in their careers, not in love. But if the brainless romantics in the story are all men? I have zero complaints.
I’ve pretty much read all of Hai Dai Ran’s novels and even translated all of them—her works are just my thing. I’ll slowly upload everything here. One day, when my website is official, I hope I can invite her to join as one of the star authors.
Here’s the story synopsis:
One-line summary: She is his lifelong obsession, to the point where he was willing to be a third wheel, scorned by society, just to wedge his way into her relationship with her fiancé.
Cold-hearted and indifferent female lead + Scheming and subservient CEO male lead
Intro 1:
“I know she doesn’t love him.”
With blood trickling from his clenched fist, Rong Xiu gazed at the woman before him, his eyes clouded with anguish. Hidden in the wardrobe, he had witnessed Fan Xia – the woman he desperately loved – in an intimate embrace with her fiancé. Yet his heart still yearned for her, defying all reason.
Fan Xia, the elegant and composed assistant, carried something mysterious in her eyes whenever she looked at her fiancé, Wen Lan Sheng. Strange occurrences began to surface – secret meetings with the young Gu Jin Yi, an unexplained withdrawal of 5,000 yuan… Then suddenly, her fiancé’s sister, Wen Jing, violently attacked her.
In this matriarchal society, Rong Xiu had risen to become the chairman of a powerful healthcare conglomerate, breaking through gender prejudices. But for the first time, he willingly stepped into the shadows as the other man, disregarding his friends’ warnings to become her secret lover.
Because he had discovered the truth – Fan Xia wasn’t the pure angel everyone believed her to be. And perhaps, he was the only one capable of helping her execute her mysterious plan…
Intro 2:
Rong Xiu’s biggest regret in life was missing out on Fan Xia.
He secretly loved Fan Xia for 7 years.
Watched her go public with her boyfriend.
Watched her kiss her boyfriend at their wedding.
Until that man blissfully nestled in Fan Xia’s arms, obtaining everything he could only dream of.
The crazy jealousy stripped away his hidden secret love, layer by layer, burning like wildfire.
Fan Xia, how can I have you!
