“Lunch together later. What do you like?”
Eun Seo Woo was at a loss for words.
As the distant murmuring began to reach her, she regained her senses. The world’s lights, which had been snuffed out, flickered back on. Although she had returned to reality, it didn’t feel real.
Due to the man standing in front of her with a large bouquet of flowers.
And the fact that this man was President Tae Min Hyuk.
“Ah, sir, President.”
She remembered she hadn’t greeted him. Though it probably wasn’t important.
“Korean, Chinese, Japanese, Western. What do you prefer, Miss Eun Seo Woo?”
To President Tae Min Hyuk at the moment, the lunch menu seemed most important.
“I don’t have any preferences.”
Seo Woo responded in a small voice.
The lobby seemed to be paralyzed, everyone stopped in their tracks. The sight of President Tae Min Hyuk handing a bouquet of flowers to a desk worker had everyone rooted to the spot.
Seo Woo, unaccustomed to being the center of attention, wanted to hide somewhere. Her heart felt like it would burst.
“Then, I’ll make a reservation and you can come down at lunchtime. Let’s meet in the lobby and leave together.”
Tae Min Hyuk pushed the bouquet further into her arms, and Seo Woo had no choice but to hold the flowers.
“Then, see you later.”
A faint smile, which she had never seen before, touched his lips. Seo Woo doubted her eyes. It was the same for everyone else watching the president in that spot.
Everyone’s eyes were wide open or they were blinking as if something had gotten into them. It was one or the other.
Seo Woo stood in her spot until Tae Min Hyuk and Han Cha Woong, his shadowlike director, slowly walked toward the elevator.
Director Han, acting for the frozen Seo Woo, pressed the up button, and after the two men entered the elevator, the doors closed smoothly.
It was as if everyone moved in unison, like they had been struck by a hand.
The closest person, Department Head Yoon, approached Seo Woo as if he was going to charge at her. Department Head Yoon had also been frozen on the spot due to the sudden appearance of President Tae Min Hyuk.
“What’s going on? Why did the president give flowers to Miss Eun Seo Woo?”
“Ah, well…”
“He did ask to have lunch together, right? Don’t tell me…”
“Ah, well…”
“What, was there another event winner? It’s the last one, so is it one more lunch or something like that?”
Department Head Yoon asked, trembling. It seemed he was shivering just thinking about it.
However, another employee interjected with a counterargument.
“No, didn’t the boss act completely different from usual? I don’t think it’s some kind of prize.”
“Does the boss like Ms. Eun Seo Woo? Wow, if so, that’s truly amazing.”
Before they knew it, the employees who were commuting started to gather one by one around Seo Woo. It had become an extraordinary morning in several ways.
“Why would he give such a large and extravagant bouquet of flowers first thing in the morning if it wasn’t for love?”
“This is a confession, it’s a confession. No, did you already receive a confession?”
“Did you see the boss smiling at Ms. Eun Seo Woo? I was surprised to see that he could make such a face.”
The boss must have expected this. That’s why he confidently appeared holding a bouquet of flowers in front of everyone.
‘Ah, I’m going crazy…..’
The conclusion that there could never be anything between the boss and me was now meaningless. Contrary to her desire to end things quietly, a big rumor had started. Seo Woo was at a loss for what to do next as her path forward was completely obscured.
As it was time to start work, the employees soon passed through the gate and headed to their offices.
Once the situation was somewhat settled, someone approached Seo Woo across the lobby.
He was a familiar figure. Tae Min Chan, the senior managing director of Tae Hyun Construction, was the younger brother of CEO Tae Min Hyuk.
“Hello.”
As she greeted him, Seo Woo thought about whether Tae Min Chan’s visit had been scheduled for today. As far as she could remember, it was not.
“Wow, there are flowers all over the desk. I thought only the desk staff at TH Food was bright, but even the flowers are beautifully arranged. I feel better as soon as I enter. I think I’ll have to suggest adding some flower decorations at our company.”
Tae Min Chan started a friendly conversation with a broad smile on his face.
Even though brothers can have different personalities, could they be so different? Although Tae Min Chan was not highly rated for his professional abilities, he was very popular with others. He was someone who had the knack of brightening up someone’s mood.
“I will inform the secretary’s office that you have arrived, sir.”
“Could you do that? I came suddenly because I wanted to see my brother.”
While Eun Seo Woo was calling the secretary’s office, Min Chan tapped the desk with his fingertips and sized her up.
She was a beautiful woman with a long neck that stretched beneath her tiedup hair.
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
