Because it was obvious how he had appeared in the woman’s eyes last night, even without seeing it. It was also laughable that he had left in the wee hours of the morning to avoid encountering the woman.
He laughed out of disbelief. Sun Woo’s mobile phone on the desk rang.
Seeing Eun Jae’s name on the phone, Sun Woo hesitated for a moment. He had planned to call back after some time once the call was disconnected, but his body didn’t cooperate.
His hand, done with deliberation, quickly picked up the phone.
“Yes.”
It was a cynical voice that followed a short sigh. It was a voice that tried to convey a sense of contempt, but to Eun Jae, it sounded no different than usual.
[Doctor… No, Mr. Sun Woo. I’m at the hospital now.]
“….”
The image of the woman who called his name without makeup overlaid in his mind.
It wasn’t a special nickname, but when his name came from the woman’s mouth, it heavily weighed on the edge of his heart.
[You asked me to contact you. Shall we meet for a moment? Ah, if you’re busy―] Despite Sun Woo’s silence, the woman continued to speak calmly as if it was a situation she was accustomed to.Sun Woo, who had been spinning his chair towards the desk, stood up after a full turn towards the office door.
His face had been stiff just a moment ago.
“There’s a cloud bridge on the fourth floor.”
“Ah! I know that place.”
At the sound of the woman’s cheerful voice,
“Okay, let’s meet there.”
He couldn’t help but chuckle again.
Tae Gyu, who was waiting in the parking lot after failing to connect with Eun Jae, ended up going up to the ward.
“I wonder if she’ll be there at that time.”
He was thinking about going to the VIP ward where he had run into Eun Jae. He thought about waiting because he seemed to have arrived a bit early, but it was only a 10minute difference.
“It’s the first time I’ve come to the hospital on my off day.”
When Tae Gyu stepped out of the elevator, spinning the car keys on his index finger, he was walking towards the cloud bridge.
From a distance, two nurses he recognized walked from the opposite side and nodded in greeting when they recognized Tae Gyu.
“Oh? Dr. Yoon! Isn’t it your day off? What brings you to the hospital?”
“Ah, I’m here to meet someone.”
The nurse Ina Rim, who had stopped in front of Tae Gyu, had her cheeks flushed.
“It’s the first time I’ve seen you in casual clothes.”
“So, is it not good?”
“Oh, of course not.”
They were about to end the pleasant exchange of greetings when Ina Rim’s last words caught Tae Gyu off guard.
“Right! Speaking of Professor Yoon. Earlier, he was on the cloud bridge with some woman.”
“A woman? Yoon Sun Woo?”
Seeing Tae Gyu’s casual response as if saying, it must be a patient, Ina Rim shook her head in certain denial.
She said his gaze was different. He was standing next to a woman with her eyes closed for a long time, she said. He was said to have removed a cherry blossom attached to the woman’s hair, and even carried her luggage. Then it seemed like they were heading to his office together.
“How could you have observed so meticulously?”
“I was drinking coffee in the break room.”
At this, the nurse standing next to her patted Na Rim’s shoulder, making a fuss.
“The woman was really beautiful too, and had such a petite face.”
In front of the cloud bridge, there was an employeeonly break room. From this break room, one could clearly see the entire cloud bridge, which made it a rather popular spot among employees.
“He looked at her so lovingly. It did seem like they were dating, you know, Professor Yoon’s face has been glowing lately.”
Did Yoon Sun Woo really act like that in such a conspicuous place, knowing full well it could be seen? And with a woman, at that?
“There’s no way.”
The man who found touching what others have touched unpleasant, what could he have done? He had removed a cherry blossom from a woman’s hair?
Tae Gyu turned his steps away from the cloud bridge. Turning his body towards Sun Woo’s office, Tae Gyu walked briskly.
Until he could confirm with his own eyes,
It seemed unbelievable.

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!
