‘She really looks different.’
Just by taking off the glasses and styling her hair differently, she seemed like a completely different person.
“Wow, your hair looks amazing!”
Yuhina jumped up with sparkling eyes.
Seol Yubin awkwardly touched her silky long hair…
‘Huh?’
As I stared blankly at Seol Yubin, a line from the ‘Inso Cliché Dictionary’ I saw yesterday suddenly came to mind.
‘That hair color…?’
The trending color for dyeing was blue-black.
That darn blue-black!
That’s right. Seol Yubin, too, fell into the clutches of blue-black.
‘That was a subplot…’
I couldn’t help but laugh. Now, do I just have to check if Sung Jichan smells like Cool Water?
At that moment, Yuhina came between me and Seol Yubin, clasping her fists and cheerfully shouting.
“Alright, ready? Let’s go buy clothes now!”
I nodded my head hastily in confusion.
Yuhina had a more discerning eye than I thought.
“Wear this, and this, and this. No, why did you bring that again! Quickly, get rid of it!”
She was so picky that she sent back all the clothes I chose.
In the end, I gave up on everything and just entrusted Seol Yubin to Yuhina.
‘She’ll handle it.’
After a few hours.
“Wow.”
I unintentionally exclaimed in admiration.
“Amazing.”
Seol Yubin, walking awkwardly towards us, said hesitantly, “Am I… okay?”
I nodded.
Then Yuhina, with enthusiasm, said, “How is it? I told you so, right?”
It was frustrating, but I had to admit it. I conceded defeat.
‘Indeed, the heroine’s twin sister.’
From head to toe, the transformed Seol Yubin was the most beautiful person I had seen since coming to this world.
Long, flowing hair and a sky-blue dress. She looked like a lovely and delicate beauty.
Yuhina looked at her creation with satisfaction.
“So beautiful!”
At those words, Seol Yubin’s cheeks turned red.
“At this level, that Ji Seunghyun guy, or whoever, will also fall for you!”
It seemed like Yuhina was even more excited than Seol Yubin, but… let’s just overlook it since it’s a good thing.
Yuhina handed the shopping bags to Seol Yubin, expressing her approval.
“Wear this tomorrow, and as I told you earlier about your hair… I’ll do your makeup tomorrow morning.”
After making a lot of noise, Yuhina said with a bright smile, “Let’s meet at the amusement park tomorrow!”
Huh?
“Are you going there too?”
“Of course!”
Yuhina pouted slightly.
“So, you were going to leave me behind?”
When she said that, I had nothing more to say.
Yuhina clicked her tongue.
“I can’t believe it. They pamper themselves like this and were planning to go out without me? Seriously, that’s bad! Right, Yubin?”
“Uh… yeah.”
Seol Yubin nodded.
I wondered when the two of them had become so close.
…Even though it seems like Yuhina is unilaterally approaching her.
I sighed deeply.
‘Well, having Yuhina around might be better than controlling that crazy group by myself.’
Rather than controlling them alone… no, even Yuhina is prone to causing trouble.
‘…Is this okay?’
With an anxious heart, I watched Yuhina and Seol Yubin enjoying their conversation.
‘Is this… okay?’
Our eyes met, and Yuhina grinned. I forced a smile in return.
My lips trembled slightly.
“Well then, see you tomorrow for real. Goodbye, everyone!”
Yuhina’s cheerful voice echoed.
So, the Seol Yubin makeover operation ended, quite successfully, perhaps.
…Maybe.
After returning home,
I went to bed early to prepare for the big event tomorrow.
But sleep did not come.
‘…Is this plan really okay?’
It’s not something I should be saying at this point, but something feels wrong.
Although I went along with it swept away by the atmosphere, the more I thought about it, the more uneasy I became. A trip to the amusement park with the Three Big Boys, the black sheep, and the villainess. Does this really make sense?
Various bad scenarios automatically came to mind.
‘Surely, it won’t be so bad that we run into the Haesung High School kids at the amusement park, right?’
Even if it’s not Haesung High School, the problem is that incidents similar to it could happen anytime.
‘Anxious, anxious, anxious…!’
I clutched the blanket tightly.
[Gyaa 〉ㅁ〈]In the midst of that, the system twinkled without a care.
[I’m really looking forward to tomorrow!]The fact that it’s looking forward to it made me even more anxious.
‘What should I do? Should I say I can’t go even now?’
I glanced at the phone placed by my head.
Go? Don’t go? Go? Don’t go? Go? Don’t go?
Should I really go?
“I’m going to die…”
In the end, I stayed up all night with wide-open eyes.
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!
