“Autocomplete… it can’t be this, can it?”
Compared to her notsoshort messages, all of Ji Ho’s responses seemed succinct. They even appeared emotionless, and now looking at them, every sentence was stopping the conversation from progressing.
As if he was saying not to reply anymore.
Strength went into the hand holding the phone. She shouldn’t have dwelt on this so much. A resentful feeling was rising up again for no reason.
The feeling of being left out.
“Just go home and get some good rest today. Starting next week, it’s going to be really hectic.”
“Okay. Did the interview go well?”
“What’s there to say? The questions were interesting. It seemed like they came very prepared.”
Ji Ho’s weekend, with the movie release only two weeks away, was as busy as his drama filming days. The difference was his naturally stylish attire and the fact that today ended a bit early. Although it was past 10 PM.
[Ji Ho, I’ve sent the added scene. Please let me know if you want any changes. (11:00 AM)]After a dawnlike morning, there was a longarrived message from Hye Yoon on his phone, which he was holding for the first time. The hand reaching for the damp makeup sponge halted. He quickly scanned the attached file, but there was nothing that caught his eye. He felt that she might have written it quite well.
[I’m fine with it. See you tomorrow. (10:40 PM)]Even last week, after taking a day off, his face was bursting with freshness. The thought of seeing that face again tomorrow brought a faint smile to his lips. And as the sent message nestled at the end of the screen, Ji Ho reached for the makeup sponge again.
Rrrr Rrrr
Until his phone vibrated.
Ji Ho stared at the phone screen with stiff eyes. Had he ever seen a call screen written as ‘Writer Jang Hye Yoon’? It felt unfamiliar and made his heart flutter a bit. He figured she had dialed him by mistake while checking her messages, whatever.
“…Writer?”
He woke her up hesitantly, worrying that she might feel embarrassed. The fact that she, like him, couldn’t speak immediately confirmed his thought that it was a wrong dial.
…I’m not okay at all!
“Pardon?”
Ji Ho, are you busy right now?
Ji Ho swept his tongue across the inside of his mouth. It was not easy trying to suppress the laughter that threatened to burst out. Even through the phone, he could feel her saying ‘I’m angry right now!’ Given her lively voice despite the late hour, it seemed like anger had triumphed over sleep.
What should he do with this woman?
Ji Ho bit his lip, trying to suppress an undeniable pleasure, just as Hye Yoon bit hers in an attempt to contain her anxiety.
“No, I’m not. Go ahead.”
…Do you want to play a game with me?
“Hehe. What kind?”
We’ll each air out one thing that upset us.
Bong Gi glanced at Ji Ho through the rearview mirror and shook his head. His nerves had been on edge ever since he heard Ji Ho say ‘Writer?’. And there were things he realized for the first time in nine years.
Like ‘Ah, I’ve never seen Ji Ho in a relationship before’, and ‘When Ji Ho is truly happy and smiling, even his eyes seem to smile’. This expression was a first. Even in advertisements for which he was paid billions, his expression was never quite like this.
“Did you have any alcohol?”
Just a little beer. But please don’t get me wrong. I don’t drink much.
“…You’re driving me crazy, really.”
He ran his free hand through his hair. Looking up at the clock inside the car, time was heading deeper into the night.
Then should I start?
“Just take your time and tell me. What’s the rush?”
…Before.
“Hm?”
…To quickly.
“Say that again. I couldn’t hear you, your voice was too quiet.”
Ji Ho’s brows furrowed at the inaudible words. The bright and clear voice from a moment ago had suddenly disappeared, and he felt like he had missed the most important part of the story. As he pressed his ear hard against the phone, she whispered again softly.
…Before I get embarrassed.
The eight words that pierced his heart.
It was a night placed between autumn and winter. The strident voice over the phone. The person he wanted to protect the most, but was acting the bravest in the world. Everything she offered was enough to stimulate a man’s heart.
“…Where are you right now?”
And instead of responding, he simply repeated his words, waiting for Hye Yoon, who was just listening. He didn’t want to indulge her now since she started it.
“Since we’re talking about airing our grievances, wouldn’t it be better to do it face to face?”
……
“Tell me. I’m coming.”
His voice, speaking with a smile, had long since lost its jest. Bong Gi, who was anxiously watching him, let out a deep sigh at his final words.
“Ah… Ji Ho. I find you very unfamiliar these days.”
But all of Ji Ho’s attention was already focused on one person, so Bong Gi’s monologue didn’t register at all. Regardless, Bong Gi could only vent his frustration, as if speaking in a dialect.
“It’s very late now, everyone. Those who will see you tomorrow should not drink like this….”
Just then, the car that had received the last signal pulled into the parking lot. Bong Gi casually parked the car and looked at him, by which time the call had already ended.
“Are you really going?”
The answer was already evident from his hurried attempt to get out, but he asked again, just in case.
“Yeah. Don’t worry.”
“Ha… How can I not worry, damn it.”
Although he had a lot to say, like ‘On top of being handsome, he’s going without even removing his makeup. Are you living without looking in the mirror?’, he knew too well that when a guy who usually doesn’t insist on anything starts to be stubborn, he absolutely wouldn’t give in.
“How about… try wearing a hat. Or add some glasses.”
“Hehe. See you tomorrow.”
Bong Gi thought he should at least suggest a disguise. Not that it would make much difference.

“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.
Synopsis:
Want to see how a green tea bitch male lead falls in love with the female lead?

Want to see how he gets slapped in the face repeatedly?
The male lead is a green tea bitch, a poisonous lotus, jealous, ruthless, unscrupulous, with a venomous heart, and he’s also a delusional maniac.
