A relieved smile finally appeared on her face, which was filled with anxiety.
“Ah, it’s a relief that even you are unharmed. You really were lucky.”
Knowing that Romi often visited the filming site even on non-shooting days, Manager Park said that it was a great relief that she had avoided the accident.
“What about Yang Shin-hwi?”
“Shin-hwi woke up a little while ago and is resting to stabilize.”
Stabilizing, my foot.
In the first place, he didn’t even take sleeping pills.
The mastermind behind all of this shamelessly lay down, thinking about pretending to be a victim. Complex emotions vanished, and her insides bubbled.
“What floor?”
“Oh, 1501. Let’s go together…”
“No. I’ll go alone. Manager, you stay here.”
With those words, Romi took the elevator and moved.
During this time, her feelings towards Shin-hwi began to complicate, going back and forth between extremes.
Standing in front of 1501, she took a long deep breath.
Although she had come, she didn’t know how to face him.
Was his suicide attempt a show to entangle with Kang?
Since she was very young, having seen Illy and San, she had no vague prejudice against Monmas.
Naturally, she never thought of them as inherently evil.
It would be nice if Shin-hwi could reveal his true feelings a bit.
“As expected, directly asking is the best way.”
While murmuring to herself like that, Romi was about to knock on the door.
“Why are you muttering like that?”
“Mom!”
Startled by the voice from behind, she jumped and shouted.
Shin-hwi, with a dagger sticking out of his face, looked at Romi lazily, pushing her head away.
“Don’t block the way, move.”
“Ouch!”
Romi, who was pushed aside, quickly followed him into the hospital room.
“Hey, what’s up?”
“What’s up? You suddenly came.”
“What’s your ulterior motive! You approached knowing I’m a Suin!”
“I thought it smelled like dog shit and wondered if it was you, but I didn’t know you were a Suin for real.”
“You stink too!”
“But why did you leave it alone? Isn’t it negligence to abandon your master?”
“W-Well…! I thought you really didn’t know I was a Monma! Huh? Again, again…!”
She stumbled over her words in confusion.
“And why did you just leave me alone?”
“Because you can step on an ant and kill it anytime.”
“….!”
This son of a bitch!
Romi, who lost again in the verbal fight today, shook with clenched fists.
Looking at her with her ears lowered, he gestured to leave if she had nothing more to say.
But she still had a lot to ask.
“What should we do with our master?”
“What does it matter? Have you never seen Monmas fighting over a food bowl?”
“So are you saying our master is a dog?”
“A dog? Yes. On a topic about me getting hit and lying down.”
“Hey! You used vile methods like that! Aren’t you embarrassed to win like that?!”
As Romi shouted angrily, Shin-hwi lifted his shoulders nonchalantly and replied.
“Even if you’re drunk on medicine, you Monmas didn’t do well in monopolizing such a good dream. If you had fought me properly, you would be dead by now.”
Although he was saying that, she still couldn’t erase the lingering doubts.
Clearly.
Certainly, she didn’t think Shin-hwi planned all this.
“Yang Shin-hwi.”
“When you have something good to say, call me Oppa.”
In the midst of it, he, who pointed out like a knife, raised his eyes as if he would strike a blow.
“I live among humans, pretending to be twenty-five, but in reality, I’ve lived more than ten times longer than you.”
“Honestly, tell me. You’re not the mastermind, right?”
However, Romi didn’t care about such things and asked.
“Sigh.”
As if tired, she sighed heavily.
“Even though you’re shameless, your style isn’t about not knowing the subject and following desires. Right?”
“…Yeah. This is real. Rather than deciding if I’ll tell you politely or not.”
“Who is the mastermind?”
Persistent, she seemed to show no signs of easily backing down.
Soon, it would be the time for No Ji-tae to arrive.
Checking the time, Shin-hwi decided to cut to the chase and tell Romi the answer she wanted.
“Our CEO.”
“What…?”
“Our CEO is the mastermind.”
Too easily, as if telling the evening menu, she gave an answer that made her expression freeze.
“Our CEO? No Ji-tae, the CEO?”
“Yeah. The CEO is the king, and he’s the mastermind.”
“…Are you teasing me?”
“Oh, Romi. Please.”
She said, sweeping her face with a jingling expression.
“Why are you so skeptical even when I tell you the truth? If you don’t believe it, don’t ask. Okay?”
“…Is it true?”
“If you ask one more time, you’ll really get beaten up.”
By now, it was clear that it wasn’t a lie.
By now, it was clear that it wasn’t a lie.
But because of that, there were even more questions.
“You, but… isn’t it something that shouldn’t be easily revealed to me?”
At that, Shin-hwi chuckled.
And that inexplicable smirk soon turned into a grand laugh.
“Why are you laughing?”
Without answering her question, Shin-hwi, who was laughing, wiped away tears forming in his eyes and said,
“What changes because I tell you?”
“What?”
“Do you think you can change anything?”
As if belittling himself with muttered sarcasm,
he finally stopped laughing, sprawled on the bed, and continued talking.
“Even if you know the mastermind, nothing will change.”
“…”
“When the time comes, the spirit in Seo Gang’s body will complete its fusion, and without a doubt, it will become the king’s vessel.”
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.”
