It was a shocking statement. It was a powerful word that could even shut up the noisy questions of Mijin.
The man who spoke like that smiled faintly and went to the dressing room. Unlike Eun Woo, whose expression didn’t change at all, Seol Hee’s face flushed bright red.
What is this guy talking about?
“You’re utterly crazy, Mr. Ok. For that woman.”
“That’s true.”
“Looking at you talking like that, you’re totally crazy. We thought Mr. Ok was not interested in women. It’s just that he didn’t meet a suitable woman.”
Mr. Ok was not interested in women? Seol Hee tilted her head and asked.
“Why did you think so?”
In response to Seol Hee’s question, Mijin lowered her voice in case Eun Woo might hear.
“It’s been 4 years since I came to the hospital? I’ve never seen him talking about women for four years. No stories about meeting someone, no interest in women coming and going. Honestly.”
Heelgut, Mijin checked once again whether Eun Woo would come out or not and continued her words.
“With his appearance, anyone can pick and date. Why, a month ago, a very pretty guardian came to our hospital and gave him a phone number, but he flatly refused. Saying he has no intention of meeting women.”
It was something she had forgotten, but there was such a thing.
About a month ago, a beautiful woman with long flowing hair brought a cute white fluffy Spitz.
She couldn’t take her eyes off Mr. Ok’s face all the while he was receiving treatment from Eun Woo. Before she left, she asked him to contact her if he didn’t have a girlfriend.
“I’m sorry. It seems a bit difficult.”

He declined, nodding his head. Mijin recalled that time and spoke.
“No, she was a very pretty woman. If I were a man, I would want to date her once.”
Mijin nodded as she recalled the incident.
“I wondered if the teacher has high standards, or if he’s gay, or if he’s rejecting because she’s a guardian. But he had someone he liked.”
“I wonder what kind of woman she is. Right? If it’s the person that picky Mr. Ok likes.”
“She must be really pretty since he likes her face.”
Momentarily, Seol Hee looked at her face reflected in the mirror. A normal face. Then she exhaled a word as if sighing.
“That’s true.”
Seol Hee really had nothing to say. No matter what was said, “That’s true.” “That’s right.” was all she could say. What should she say?
It was already a mess all day just because he had a girlfriend, and if it was revealed that she was the one.
It didn’t seem like it would end with this level of commotion.
((()))((()))((()))
Before meeting Seol Hee’s friends, and before going to greet Eun Woo’s grandmother, the two decided to get a little closer.
Because in this state, they were almost like strangers.
They had dates on weekends, and they went home together during weekdays.

In order not to be caught by people, she got into his car in a slightly distant parking lot, and Eun Woo decided to take her home.
She opened his car door and climbed into the passenger seat. As always, unlike Eun Woo who looked at her coolly, Seol Hee’s expression was fluctuating.
“You worked hard today.”
“You too, Mr. Ok. But, why did you say that today?”
In response to Seol Hee’s question, Eun Woo answered while turning the handle.
“What did I say?”
“You said you have a woman you like, that you like everything about her from her face…”
“Did it upset you?”
“It’s not that.”
She was nearly dying of embarrassment.
She didn’t know what to do since she started this fake relationship, this nonromantic relationship with Eun Woo. It was nothing but heartpounding and unbearable.
“It was a bit embarrassing. Hearing about it all day.”
Even though she knew it was acting, her face involuntarily turned red.
At Seol Hee’s words, Eun Woo curled the corner of his mouth and laughed. The slowly setting sun hit his sharply cut nose, creating a long shadow.
“Why are you embarrassed, Ms. Seol Hee?”
“…….”
“You know, I never said it was Ms. Seol Hee.”
At his words, her eyes widened.
He never said it was me?
“Ah, um, I.”
Confused, strange words flowed from her lips. She thoroughly reviewed the content of today’s conversation in her head.

“Yes, there is. A woman I like.”
“Well.”
“……”
“That woman, I just like everything about her.”
“…….”
“Everything, from her face.”
Upon reflection, he did talk about going to Wonderland with a woman, and he did mention that he liked a woman, but he never said the woman he went to Wonderland with was the woman he liked.
He never even mentioned if the woman in question was Yu Seol Hee.
Seol Hee had been under the impression that all the things Eun Woo had said so far were just to avoid the situation, but it would be a huge misunderstanding if he was talking about another woman.
“Do you have a woman you like?”
Surprised, Seol Hee’s voice turned upside down. I mean, it’s possible that Eun Woo likes a woman, but I didn’t understand why he was in a fake relationship with me.
The Villainous Demon Lord Laid an Egg for Her (Female-Dominated)
Several months after transmigrating into a book, Yu Wu found herself facing the demon lord Li You, who could no longer conceal his dragon horns. With one hand on her aching waist and the other gripping a sharp sword, she stared at him.
The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:
“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”
Yu Wu rubbed her temples. Putting aside the taboo against bloodshed during pregnancy, wasn’t it this very man who willingly walked into her trap that day?!
