Unable to forgive herself if that happened, she knew she had to kiss the despicable man before her.
Eun Chae steadied her trembling eyelids and looked straight at Seung Yoon. He seemed to be enjoying her hesitation.
At that moment, Eun Chae clenched her teeth and slightly raised her lip corner.
“Are you really planning to obstruct your father’s path?” she challenged.
Eun Chae sensed Seung Yoon flinch at the mention of Congressman Han Ji-Chang.
“Don’t be mistaken. Before Chairman Song buries anyone, I’ll be the one burying you. As the son of Congressman Han Ji-Chang, you shouldn’t mess around, Seung Yoon.”
Her confident tone stiffened Seung Yoon’s relaxed face.
“Ha. Shall we get more serious then?” he said, exhaling sharply.
“…”
“It doesn’t make sense to squabble like this. Who would love people like us? You think you’re in a fairytale with a prince? Expecting a happy ending with him?”
Seung Yoon sneered, continuing his harsh words.
“In reality, you’re the Little Mermaid. Wake up. He’s someone who will disappear eventually.”
Thud.
Seung Yoon lightly punched the table and stood up.
“I’ll give you time to think, at least until your recital or whatever. I want a real answer then about the wedding cancellation.”
He glared at Eun Chae and left the drawing room with heavy steps.
Thump.
Ki Joo stepped out of the car parked in front of Congressman Kim’s pine-draped house, holding a box of beverages. Without glancing around, he followed the congressman’s chauffeur inside and straight into Kim’s room.
“Welcome,” greeted Congressman Kim, acknowledging Ki Joo’s bow with a hand gesture and pointing to the sofa opposite. Ki Joo, a young figure with influence in politics and a prosecutor by background, was a close associate of Han Ji-Chang, eyeing a future in a judicial state under Han’s presidency.
“Chairman Song sends his apologies for missing your son’s wedding,” Ki Joo started, placing the beverage box on the table and opening it to offer an energy drink to Kim, who took it eagerly.
The box was crammed with fifty-thousand-won notes. This was a supreme bribe following Ki Joo’s handling of the drug issue involving Kim’s son, making their relationship more solid.
Ki Joo watched the congressman consume the bribe with satisfaction and soon left the house. Their meeting was brief, having served its purpose from the start. Refusing a ride back, Ki Joo walked into the night, pulling out his phone. It looked ordinary, but contained a recording of their meeting, hidden in the drink’s cap now in his pocket. The footage began with the camera entering the money-filled box, then entering Kim’s house, capturing their interaction. After he handed over the drink, the screen went black, the camera still in his pocket.
In fact, the side of the drink’s cap contained a tiny camera lens. A minuscule hole was drilled in the box to match the camera’s size, allowing easy recording of the entire process from the moment it entered the house.
As Ki Joo replayed the footage to ensure no detail was missed, he eventually removed his earphones, chuckling to himself.
Though the drink wasn’t actually poisoned, the sight of someone gulping down a beverage, oblivious to its potential as a lethal potion, was quite amusing to him.

Wasn’t the male lead described as a cold and otherworldly figure in the book?
Then who was this poor little thing crying with swollen red eyes and tear-stained face?
Short scene 2:
Wei Jing Mo stared intently at Feng Bai Su who was about to go out, wanting to say, “Be careful on the road.”
Before he could speak, Feng Bai Su suddenly bent down and bit his cheek.
Her peach blossom eyes were full of disdain: “Tsk! You’re so clingy!”
Wei Jing Mo: “…”
