Min Joo quickly glanced at Hye Yoon who was relaxed beside her. Her response was mixed with sleepiness as if she was exhausted.
“…Don’t get the wrong idea seeing An Ji Ho act.”
“Huh?!”
Hye Yoon looked at Min Joo as if she was struck by lightning, jolting awake.
“No, even from now, when you watch An Ji Ho act, I get the feeling you like him. Oh, not you, Hee Su.”
She was so obviously startled that it seemed conspicuous, but fortunately, Min Joo was focused on driving.
“I’m saying this so you don’t confuse acting with reality and get hurt later. Especially because he’s acting even offcamera.”
“No, I’m not…”
She denied it, but Hye Yoon felt a blush creeping up. While looking at her reflection in the window, she pretended to touch her hair, covering her forehead. She remembered her ridiculous thought a few days ago, wondering if her thoughts were visible because her head was transparent.
Min Joo’s words were too accurate for it not to be true.
“It’s a good thing if it’s not. An Ji Ho’s exgirlfriends are Cha Jae Hee and Jeon Ji Na. You can tell what his type is, right?”
“Ah…”
“They’re completely like him. Worldclass beauties.”
And before Min Joo even finished talking, her hand, which had lost strength, fell. A sighlike emotion, hard to define, flowed out from her small mouth.
Cha Jae Hee and Jeon Ji Na were the leading actresses in Korea who earned billions in a year just from advertisements. Moreover, Jeon Ji Na, who started as a model, was an actress with a tall height and good figure, which Hye Yoon always envied.
The hand that fell onto her thigh followed its owner’s bad mood. She pinched her silent thigh with her fingernails up.
“Someone mentioned that. They’re not even sure about it…”
“Who did? Today, I overheard the female staff talking. Everyone knows that he dated Cha Jae Hee? When An Ji Ho was filming a movie before, Cha Jae Hee came to the set every day to wait… so the rumors spread.”
Hye Yoon was confused. It wasn’t that she didn’t know what she was feeling. Rather, it was the opposite.
“And Jeon Ji Na is… Oh, but can I just talk about this? Even if it’s fake, he’s a friend’s boyfriend, so it bothers me.”
“Yes. It’s okay to talk.”
Worried that her feelings might show in her voice, Hye Yoon raised it a bit higher. Then, Min Joo’s unobstructed response continued smoothly.
“Yup. He even filmed a drama with Jeon Ji Na. They say there are staff who saw them kissing in front of the van.”
“……”
There was no room for even a short phrase like ‘I see.’ She had bitten down on her teeth too hard. Hye Yoon looked at the side mirror with a blank expression. In the mirror, a woman with sulks plastered all over her face stared back at her.
She couldn’t pretend not to know this emotion. It was unmistakably jealousy, tinged with a sense of being left out.
“That drama was popular, but it also caused quite a stir. I remember there being news about Jeon Ji Na’s brother… You know about it, right?”
“……”
“Hye Yoon?”
“……”
“Jang Hye Yoon.”
“……Huh? I’m sorry. I was thinking about something else. What did you say?”
When she tried to erase the word ‘jealousy’ written largely in her mind, she felt like there was nothing left. She had been so clearly jealous of Ji Ho’s real lovers. Her gloomy face turned towards Min Joo.
“Oh no, our Hye Yoon is in big trouble. I thought it couldn’t be.”
“Min Joo… Does my face look really ugly right now? It feels like it’s full of sulks.”
“Chuckles. You know it, huh?”
Sitting next to her, Min Joo glanced at Hye Yoon who was cutely revealing her true feelings. Even to another woman, Hye Yoon was cute. Even when she was expressing feelings of dislike like this.
“But Min Joo. When a guy tells a girl she’s cute… Doesn’t that mean he has some feelings?”
Especially at times like this, she was cute. When she says something so transparent. She wanted to hide her true feelings, but couldn’t lie. Just like right now.
The car slowly came to a stop at the signal. Then, Min Joo, full of smiles and laughter, stared directly at Hye Yoon with her eyes and mouth.
“What? Did An Ji Ho call Jang Hye Yoon cute?”
“……”
“Where did you learn to take such leaps?”
Hye Yoon, who had stuck out her lips, blinked her eyes as if she had nothing to say. Min Joo had a hard time holding back her laughter.
Sure enough, lying didn’t suit Jang Hye Yoon.
“Hye Yoon, you’re cute to me too. So, don’t make a big deal out of it.”
“……That’s not it.”
“Yes, it is. You’ve heard that you’re cute all your life. I know. It just feels a bit different because it’s An Ji Ho. Got it?”
When Hye Yoon nodded her head, Min Joo turned her eyes to the front and pressed the accelerator. Both the one who coaxed the answer and the one who nodded understood well that it wouldn’t be easy not to make a big deal out of it.
As Min Joo said, if Ji Ho was involved, everything would be difficult.
“Tomorrow is the last filming of the week, right?”
“Yeah…… What are you going to do for the next two days, Min Joo?”
“Well, I’m going to laze around at home for a day. What about you?”
“I’m going to write a little in a new book, see Woo Jun for a while, and rest.”
The conversation flowed smoothly as a common interest emerged. Now, once the filming ended tomorrow, they would be given two days of rest. Hye Yoon also wished that Ji Ho, who looked tired, could have a good rest during those two days, as well as herself.
Past lovers, jealousy, delusions. Those were the real feelings she had battled and overcome.
At least so far, she had been able to do so.
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
