Younger Man at Work (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 140
Seeing Hye Sun staring blankly at the wedding invitation printed with photos of Kwon Yong Chul and Ji Yeon Hwa, Butler Kim was at a loss.
“It’s been nearly twenty years since I quit—why would they even send this to me?”
Sending a wedding invitation even to Butler Kim clearly revealed their intentions beyond any doubt.
“Well, that’s because you’re my man, isn’t it?”
Hye Sun replied with a faint, mocking smile.
“It’s obviously to show off their marriage to all those people who’ve never acknowledged their relationship, right?”
Tossing the invitation into a corner of her desk, Hye Sun muttered to herself,
“That’s just perfect. If they’re so desperate for recognition, I’ll gladly give them exactly what they want.”
According to her findings, that secretary was now serving as the head of the office at Dae Won Welfare Foundation, where Ji Yeon Hwa was chairwoman. Yet he was still referred to as “Director Hong,” effectively functioning as Yeon Hwa’s chief secretary.
If he still believed Kwon Seung Hyun, now thirty-one years old, was truly his own son, that meant their connection had lasted over thirty years. Out of love for a woman who had chosen a wealthy man, he had remained unmarried past the age of fifty, steadfastly staying by her side.
‘What a hopeless romantic.’
Hye Sun appreciated that unwavering devotion—precisely because she knew just how venomous such pure loyalty could become once it turned.
What color would that man’s pure devotion shift to, once he discovered he’d been deceived for over thirty years?
Hye Sun’s heart, hardened like steel, trembled slightly with anticipation.

Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!
――
This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”
