The stylish shalala dress that Soo Senior introduced me to wear for the interview at the school is now too cold to wear. Did I catch a cold even when I wore it that day?
Soo-young rummaged through the wardrobe and took out all the suits, which were in a business style.
As her unemployed life continued, she didn’t have many clothes to wear to events. The place where she currently works doesn’t require her to pay much attention to her clothes. Maybe I should buy some clothes.
However, buying clothes for a wedding that happens once a year or so is an unreasonable thing.
“Soo-young, come and eat!”
Outside, Young-soon’s voice was heard. Soo-young took two blouses and went out of the room.
“Mom, am I going to a wedding? I have to eat a lot there, so I shouldn’t eat now.”
“You didn’t even eat breakfast.”
Seeing her daughter, who always wakes up late and eats a combined breakfast and lunch, Young-soon felt sorry. Today, she properly set the table while Soo-young was at home, but it seems the girl is starving today.
In her disappointed heart, Young-soon’s eyebrows naturally wrinkled.
However, Soo-young, without caring about her mother’s feelings, asked naturally while holding two blouses.
“Mom, which one is better? This one has a wrinkled collar, and this one has a wrinkled pocket. I’ll wear a bavi coat on top of this, which one should I wear to cover it up?”
Not only the collar and pocket, but both sets of clothes were crumpled as if they had been stuck in the wardrobe for a long time.
Young-soon sighed lightly and picked up the white blouse from her daughter’s hands.
“I’ll iron it for you.”
“It’s okay. It won’t show anyway because I’ll wear a coat.”
“What about underneath?”
“Jeans, of course.”
“Don’t you have dress pants? You wore them when you were a lecturer.”
“Oh, that one is too tight around the waist.”
Back then, even though she lost weight because of work, these days she’s not busy, and it seems the fat has stuck to her side.
Moreover, she eats lunch and dinner with Woojin too well.
Originally, she used to come home after eating lunch, take a walk, clean the house, and soon it became 4 o’clock. At 4 o’clock, they inevitably ask Woojin to make coffee.
Without much talk, they sit down after putting down their coffee. Before they know it, it’s 6 o’clock, and shortly afterward, Ji-hyun comes and suggests having dinner.
Then, they order delicious steak from a delivery service. No wonder she can’t avoid gaining weight.
The peculiar thing is that Woojin eats the same, but his figure remains the same.
Ah, that gentleman is jumping around like he’s about to die… At that moment, the thought of trying it once crossed her mind, but she decided to just gain weight.
Wearing the blouse, jeans, and beige bavi coat that Young-soon prepared, Soo-young looked very pretty, seemingly dressed up yet not dressed up.
At least, that’s how it appeared to Soo-young.
With mascara on her eyes, Soo-young blinked her moist eyes and got on the subway.
Today is the wedding of Shin Ye-jin, a new teacher at a high school in Seoul and the older sister of Shin Ye-won, who has been introduced by Senior Soo.
Being a friend’s older sister, a university senior, and a club senior, I couldn’t avoid attending.
With school seniors, juniors, and classmates all expected to be there, Soo-young was subtly concerned.
They would all probably ask how she’s been…
If they ask about her job, she could say she’s a manager and assistant writer. If they ask if she has a boyfriend… then… Woojin’s face came to mind, but she quickly erased it. He’s not a boyfriend.
But even if he were, she probably wouldn’t check if others know or care. Should she just say she has a boyfriend?
Just imagining it made her blush.
Might as well go further with the imagination – walking hand in hand with him, sitting across from each other at a cafe eating strawberry parfait, watching a movie together, of course, still holding hands.
When she was imagining incorporating David into scenes from dramas and movies she had seen, they arrived at the wedding hall.
Yejin unni had put on heavy makeup and looked like a completely different person.
She even thought she might have entered the wrong waiting room and went out, then came back in.
After the ordinary wedding ceremony that could be seen anywhere, she held the meal ticket she had prepared in advance and went to the buffet restaurant below.
Lo and behold, university classmates were gathered at one table.
Looking at other tables, seniors were grouped with seniors, and juniors with juniors.
Since they were meeting after a long time, it seemed awkward for everyone.
After lightly greeting and having a casual talk about each other’s recent lives at the table where the seniors were gathered, Soo-young quietly sat next to Mijin.
As soon as Soo-young sat down, Mijin opened her eyes wide and asked, “Manager? You’re a manager?”
It seemed like the casual talk about recent events in front of the seniors was heard at this table too.
“Which celebrity?”
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
Trigger warning: All men in this novel are yandere style.
