Eunwoo whispered while holding a black box.
“Returning to WS is a significant challenge for me as well, but I want to stand tall for you. I want to do what I’ve been postponing until now.”
Listening to his quietly spoken words, Seolhee stared silently at the box he held out. A memory from some time ago flashed in her mind. There was a moment when he whispered love to her and presented a necklace. It felt just like that.
“I can wait as long as you need.”
“…”
“But I want to let you know my determination. When you’re ready, I want to get married. I want to share a lifetime of happy and joyful moments, and even in difficult times, I want to be there together.”
Saying this, he had gifted her the necklace in a black box, much like today.
“I thought a lot about where to do it. A nice restaurant, a beautiful travel destination. But since this small 2-square-meter space was our beginning, I wanted our future beginnings to be together too.”
In response to his words, Seolhee nodded, and at that moment, they had already promised each other their future.
Everything seemed the same, but today, what Eunwoo offered her in the black box was much smaller than what she had received back then.
“I said I could wait back then. I willingly said I could wait as long as you needed. But…”
Eunwoo sighed like he was letting out his words.
“Now, it feels like I can’t wait any longer.”
Leaving the animal hospital would also reduce the time they spent together. It would no longer be possible to spend the whole day together, whispering love; such a life would become impossible. It would become a turbulent time.
“I want to be together a little longer, to open and close each day with you, not just spend time together but promise that time to each other.”
He sweetly whispered. Then Eunwoo opened the box. The box clicked open, revealing a dazzling and transparent ring adorned with gems.
Beautiful.
Even in this tense situation, the ring was so beautiful that she couldn’t help but utter those words. Seolhee stared at the ring, captivated.
“What’s this? What’s the meaning behind giving it to me?”
Today wasn’t a special day. Seolhee’s birthday was far away, and it wasn’t the one-year or 200th or 300th day since they started dating. She wasn’t the type to keep track of such dates, but anyway, it wasn’t. Surprised and breathless, Seolhee, who was just staring at the ring, heard Eunwoo whisper cautiously.
“An engagement ring.”
“…”
“Do people usually not do this? I don’t know, but I want to do everything properly with you.”
Recently, friends around Seolhee had started getting married.
However, generally, if someone mentioned a proposal, and if they said they were giving an engagement ring, it usually meant that the marriage was already decided, and they were proposing just before the wedding. But the man in front of her was not an ordinary man, so…
“I don’t know if it’s my selfishness, but after finishing work, I don’t like being alone when I come back. Being with you has become natural, and I hope it stays that way in the future.”
“…”
“It might be too hasty, but…”
As he spoke at length, Seolhee raised her head.
“No. I like it.”
Her heart swelled. There is hardly a woman who wouldn’t be nervous at such a declaration of love.
“I like it, Mr. Eunwoo. I like it.”
She regretted saying last time that she would just acknowledge his confession and wait until her heart settled.
“Back then, I already wanted to do it.”
“Right away?”
“Yeah.”
She nodded. At that, a smile spread across Eunwoo’s face. His lips gently curved, drawing an elegant line.
“If I say that, I might suggest getting married tomorrow.”
“…”
“Go to the district office and report right away. Is that okay?”
Laughter escaped Seolhee’s lips at his question. What would happen if they went to the district office and reported tomorrow? It sounded unique and appealing.
“I’m okay with it.”
When Seolhee gave a straightforward answer, Eunwoo raised one eyebrow.
“Is it really okay even if I say so? Your parents might be surprised.”
“They might be, but…”
If her mom finds out, she might be delighted. Probably.
Seolhee’s mother had liked Eunwoo from the first time they met. Handsome and well-mannered, he was a young man they encountered in a real estate agency when their relationship was still ambiguous. Since then, Seolhee’s mother had harbored a warm feeling for him.
Now that some time had passed since they started dating, her mother also knew about Eunwoo and Seolhee’s relationship. And true to Seolhee’s talkative mother, she persistently urged her to quickly bring this excellent man home.
But if Seolhee were to say, “We’re getting married. No, we’re already married,” her mother might just shout with joy.
“If I’m with you, she’ll like it. No matter what.”
Eunwoo laughed at Seolhee’s words. While tapping the table thoughtfully, Eunwoo, who had been lost in thought, spoke.
“I thought you’d dislike it.”
“What?”
“Me going back to WS.”
Seolhee raised her head at Eunwoo’s words.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
