11 Virtues A Hero's Civilian Friend Must Uphold (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 128
Ever since she’d made up her mind to confess to Hee Won, everything had moved swiftly.
Considering how busy he was, Na Eun had waited for the perfect window of opportunity—and through Seon Jin, she finally learned Hee Won’s day off.
Technically it was called a day off, but in reality, he’d still have to drop everything and rush to work if anything urgent came up; if this were a regular company, it would’ve violated labor laws—but even this scant rest was considered precious.
Especially for Hee Won Seo, who hadn’t slept soundly even once in the past few months, it was truly golden rest.
He probably hadn’t taken a day off in ages—was it really okay to contact him? She’d been debating whether to let him rest properly and wait for another chance, when, almost mockingly, Hee Won contacted her first.
He sent a message saying he had the day free and told her to call if she needed anything.
It wasn’t even a “What are you up to?” or “Want to do something together?”—just “Call me if you need anything.”
Na Eun stared down at Hee Won’s text with slightly pained eyes. It wasn’t as if they were boss and subordinate; his overly deferential attitude toward her hurt her heart.
She felt even worse knowing that she herself was the main reason he acted this way.
[Then let’s go eat something delicious? Get some rest and meet for dinner! I want to have a meal with you.]
It was only around 2 p.m., so there was still time until evening.
She wanted to give him more time to rest, and then slowly share everything she’d kept bottled up inside while having dinner together.
His reply to her message arrived instantly.
[Got it.]
Just as Na Eun was excitedly wondering what to wear for their evening out after receiving Hee Won’s text saying he’d pick her up around 6, the phone rang—it was Seon Jin.

After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
