Kang-woo and Se-ah went to the hospital entrance. The sedan was already waiting in front of the main gate.
A hospital staff member took their luggage and loaded it into the trunk. Kang-woo handed a generous bill to the staff member.
“It’s okay, sir. It’s included in the VIP service.”
“Thank you. It’s not much.”
With a polite gesture, the staff member accepted the tip. After the staff member disappeared, Se-ah stood there with a blank face, even until the moment the backseat opened.
“Get in.”
“Kang-woo.”
“Yeah.”
Unexpectedly, Se-ah placed her hand on Kang-woo’s cheek. She didn’t let go of Kang-woo’s cheeks, even standing on tiptoe.
“Kang-woo, are you really okay?”
“…”
“The doctor said there’s really nothing wrong, right? I don’t need to check, do I?”
Was she joking? Kang-woo stared piercingly into Se-ah’s eyes. Intentions held by others could be quickly discerned, but emotions were challenging to understand.
Perhaps that’s why it was so difficult to know Se-ah. She was a woman adorned only with fuzzy emotions, without impure intentions.
The reddened nape of her neck caught his eye in the chilly wind. He adjusted Se-ah’s scarf once again.
“If you speak in circles like that, I won’t understand.”
“No, it’s just that you seem to have changed so suddenly. You’re being kind, unlike before.”
Maybe when it’s time to leave… Se-ah muttered while looking down at the sneakers she wore into the winter gym.
“Am I so afraid that I’ll die?”
“…That’s what you think?”
With bowed head, Se-ah pursed her lips. It seemed unbearably cute. If only there weren’t eyes watching, he wanted to bite her lips. Ah, thanks to the hospitalization, it had accumulated quite a bit.
The silence continued as he endured the awkward feeling of holding back laughter. Se-ah looked up at him with a puzzled expression.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
“Because I’m touched.”
“But your expression is emotionless.”
“This is the best. It’s cold, so get in the car.”
Kang-woo opened the passenger door. Resisting, Se-ah pushed him gently.
“Get in the passenger seat, Kang-woo. I’ll drive. It doesn’t make sense for someone just discharged to drive.”
“It’s okay.”
“Don’t worry. I drive well.”
Shaking the car key, Se-ah smiled brightly.
“Okay. I’ll do it.”
“Hurry.”
Se-ah firmly closed her lips. Kang-woo obediently got into the passenger seat. Cheerfully, Se-ah settled into the driver’s seat.
“Alright, I’ll do it.”
“Go ahead.”
Se-ah firmly closed her lips.
Because of this man, who knows even the obvious early, Se-ah smiled. She stepped on the escalator.
“Just a moment.”
Without making much noise, he squeezed in. He changed the navigation set to home to Grace Hotel.
“Why are we here, Kang-woo?”
“I booked a room.”
⭐️⭐️⭐️
Grace Hotel.
After entrusting the valet parking to the employee at the main entrance, they went to the front. While Kang-woo received the hotel key, Se-ah stood behind him, scanning the surroundings.
Grace Hotel was the place where they spent an unexpected night before marriage. Since then, there has never been a single occasion when they shared a bed, neither here nor anywhere else other than their home.
Perhaps due to the lights, her forehead was sweaty, and her cheeks were warm.
Kang-woo, who was talking to the front desk staff, turned his head.
“Just take the key.”
“……Yes.”
Se-ah’s voice crawled into her ears. The fact that she came to the hotel with her husband, how was it? She wanted to be confidently composed, but the current situation, both Kang-woo and it, felt unfamiliar. Although she thought he had become a little more comfortable, her heart suddenly contracted.
With his gaze fixed forward, Kang-woo grabbed Se-ah’s four fingertips.
“Huh?”
Her cute reaction eventually caught Kang-woo’s attention.
“Relax. It’ll be fine.”
With a whispering push, Se-ah’s ears turned red. The staff glanced at them. Perhaps if others found them strange, it wasn’t because of that but because of her overly sensitive physical response.
Soon, Kang-woo received the hotel key. He properly held Se-ah’s hand, which had only touched fingertips. Unable to pull away, Se-ah allowed the muffler to climb up to her lips.
As he pressed the elevator button, Kang-woo gave her a gentle glance.
“If you cover up like that, it feels awkward.”
“Why?”
“Like I’ve become an adulterer.”
“What if people from the company see us? It’s awkward for both you and me, Kang-woo.”
“If we announce our marriage, it will collapse in an instant.”
“…….?”
“I think refusing any expression is okay.”
Mischief settled in his gaze. What else was he trying to say?
While confirming the arrival of the elevator, glancing around to see if anyone familiar was present, she was also immersed in Kang-woo’s words.
“Let’s be straightforward. It’s just as uncomfortable inside.”
“…….?”
“Learn to refuse boldly.”
“I know how to refuse.”
As if teasing, Kang-woo’s eyes slightly lifted.
As the elevator reached the first floor, the button lit up in red.
“Really. Am I not as angelic as you think, Kang-woo?”
“Can I check?”
“……How?”
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
