HE RETURNED AS A HIGH SCHOOL GIRL (PART ll)

Chapter 225: Mortal Enemy's Invitation (1)

Kang Ra-Eun opened her eyes at 7 AM and struggled to get up after realizing that the ceiling looked unfamiliar.

‘Oh right, I’m in the middle of a shoot...’

Her unkempt self was also being filmed right now. This was her third day here, so she practically had a map of the house in her head with every single camera position at this point. There was one on the upper right corner of the wall with the window on it, and another one above the room door.

Ra-Eun fixed her clothes and roughly combed her hair with her hand. Her hair was so long that it was always a complete mess whenever she woke up, and it was no different today.

‘Lions would consider me one of their own.’

Her unkempt hair looked like a lion’s mane. Ra-Eun barely managed to get out of her bed and detected a delicious smell coming from the kitchen. She walked to the kitchen to see Je-Woon in an apron, like she had expected.

He asked with a smile, “Did you sleep okay?”

“What time did you wake up, sunbae?”

“Me? Around thirty minutes ago, I think?”

Thirty minutes ago meant that he had woken up at 6:30 AM.

“You woke up so early,” Ra-Eun expressed.

“My eyes just opened naturally. I’m making toast. Are you fine with that?”

“Yes. Then I’ll set the table.”

Je-Woon did not seem to feel awkward in any way despite having confessed his feelings to Ra-Eun yesterday and being turned down. The psychological damage had likely been far less because he knew that he would be rejected. Ra-Eun felt relieved to see Je-Woon like this.

‘I was worried that he would be super awkward around me.’

Je-Woon was a true professional.

After they finished their breakfast, their imaginary married life officially came to an end after the program director congratulated them on their hard work. Shin Yu-Bin came up to Ra-Eun once the shoot had finished.

“Great work, Ra-Eun.”

Ra-Eun felt happy to see her manager after three days.

“You too, Miss Manager.”

“I didn’t do anything. You’re going straight home, right?”

“Yes, absolutely.”

Ra-Eun had spent a leisurely time in the villa that Ji Han-Seok had lent her for the past three days, but she was still fatigued. No matter how much she rested here, she could never rest in the truest sense on camera. It was time to go back home and truly rest.

However, Yu-Bin brought up another topic before that, “Chief Jung asked you to come to the agency this Friday.”

“Why?”

“I don’t know either.”

Friday was two days from now; if he had something to tell her, he could have just done so right away.

‘Whatever it is, it must not have been finalized yet.’

There were always hidden circumstances for everything. She didn’t know what Chief Jung would tell her, but she only needed to wait two days to find out.

“Okay.”

“I’ll come pick you up at your house on that day. He said to come whenever you have time since it wasn’t urgent, so you can take your time getting ready. Oh, and...”
