“Wow, An Ji Ho is really insane! I’ve been wanting to talk about it, it was so hard to hold back!”
On their way home, Min Ju seemed unable to calm her excitement. Words burst out of her as if the dam of her patience had finally broken, and accordingly, her steps had become forceful.
“Min Ju, the navigation is crying because you’re scaring it.”
“Ah, right.”
She must not have heard the loud warning sound. Finally, she took her foot off the accelerator, aligning her speed with the other cars on the road.
“But I don’t know much about this. Do directors usually ask for less steamy scenes?”
“Well, I’m not sure either…”
Hye Yoon slowly turned her head towards the window. Thinking about it again, her cheeks flushed.
‘Let’s… tone it down a bit. The emotional line is really good, but I’m worried it might fail the review.’
This was what Min Woo had told the two of them before they started shooting again after the NG. In other words, her belief that the kiss was too deep was not a misunderstanding. While Hye Yoon bit her lips tightly, holding back her embarrassment, Ji Ho casually nodded.
And the kiss that followed was indeed shorter than the previous one. However, Ji Ho had only reduced the time. He remained intensely passionate between their pressed lips. It was a secret known only to the two of them.
“Hye Yoon…”
Her profile, looking out the window, seemed to flinch for a moment. Min Ju was showing a carefulness unlike her usual self, making it easy to guess what she was curious about.
Hye Yoon slowly turned her head towards Min Ju. Lying was not in her nature. So she had only one hope. That Min Ju’s question would be so finely crafted that she could honestly answer without revealing the ambiguous relationship she currently had with Ji Ho.
“You’re not really dating An Ji Ho, are you?”
Oh, thank goodness.
“Yes.”
A sigh of relief bubbled up from the depths of her heart. With a question like that, she could answer without telling a single lie. After all, they weren’t really dating yet.
Upon hearing her firm response, Min Ju also bobbed her head up and down.
“Hmm… so that’s all due to professional dedication. You take your job pretty seriously.”
“Haha. Look at your choice of words.”
“Wow, An Ji Ho is really good at kissing. Just watching it felt… weird.”
If she admitted that she had the same thought, the remaining whiteness on her face might completely disappear.
“Well, what do I know, I was just watching, right?”
“…”
“Huh? Hye Yoon, huh?”
A suspicious gaze, as if saying ‘you’re not the only one who can do it,’ prodded at Hye Yoon’s face. It was intense, as if observing to see how far she could hide while driving.
“Let’s have dinner before we go home! I’ll buy you whatever you want, no matter the price.”
“Yes, sister. You look really beautiful today.”
A truly emotionless compliment was thrown as if she liked Hye Yoon’s suggestion. As a signal to stop the ‘make your face blush’ game. Min Ju slyly eyed Hye Yoon’s flushed cheeks, as clear as her transparent compliment.
Of course, even though Min Ju’s question was over, Hye Yoon’s heart was still pounding. Inside her chest, a child with cheeks as red as ripe apples was still running around, causing chaos.
The next day, Ji Ho had movie interviews scheduled for the entire day.
“There are three big films set to release next week. You know, right?”
“Yes. It’s an honor to be amongst good films.”
“Among them, the best one would be your movie, Mr. Ji Ho, right?”
Everyone was naturally dressed up, but his appearance stood out among the rest. Of course, there was no need to mention his humility befitting his looks.
“That’s not necessarily the case. However, since we put a lot of effort into making it, I can confidently recommend it.”
True nature reveals itself in very trivial things. For instance, softly directing a question intensely focused on oneself to a fellow actor. If an actor looked lost at a tough question, he naturally took on the question when their eyes met.
It was a subtle consideration that only the two involved knew of, yet he did not allow the other party the opportunity to express their gratitude. Hence, although everyone wanted to get close, nobody could.
Approaching his captivating aura only seemed to reveal a wall that seemed to touch the sky.
“Well, let’s wrap up this interview with a brief greeting.”
All the actors nodded their heads. After all, the next interview, and the one after that, would be similar. It couldn’t be helped since the press and the interviewer only changed for the same movie.
Repeated questions, roundabout answers. It was a bit tiring.
“By the way, did you hear what Cha Do Hyuk said about Ji Ho in the previous interview?”
“No… I haven’t seen it yet.”
But being tired was better than being angry. When a name he’d momentarily forgotten surfaced, Ji Ho’s gaze changed significantly.
“He said he admires and envies Ji Ho the most. He seems to handle both work and love perfectly.”
“Thank you.”
“And… uh, should we set a break point here?”
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
