“I’m not angry…”
Does he pretend not to know?
Still, he seemed to have a rough idea.
Whether he knew it all or not, why should she explain everything in detail?
“Speak comfortably. What I said or did that annoyed you, made you upset.”
“…Honestly, I’m angry at you.”
“…….”
“I feel inferior to Professor.”
“What the hell is this inferiority complex?”
“It’s not a bad thing.”
So-ri interrupted his words. He frowned.
“Feel inferior because I scolded you? Imagine if it was another resident, think about whether this is a trivial incident.”
“I know. You’re being very understanding.”
But he’s a man who means something else to me.
In fact, So-ri’s true feelings were too childish to be spoken aloud.
Words like don’t cry, I’ll kick you out.
“The words you say make me feel like you’re treating me too much, like a child.”
In the end, she spoke like a child again.
“I hope Professor doesn’t treat me like a child.”
Yeah, it was spilled milk anyway.
This wasn’t all, but still, this was all she had to say.
When So-ri blurted it out, he turned his head slightly and chuckled.
“That’s right.”
“What is it?”
“You. It’s like revealing a kid in the water.”
“Why would I?”
“Sometimes, even more than Jiwu.”
That can’t be.
As if he couldn’t believe it, So-ri’s eyes widened.
“Did it hurt when I told you not to cry?”
“…….”
“Or was it hurtful when I said I’d kick you out if you cried?”
“…….”
“Ah, both.”
In his eyes, he answered his own question with a smirk, leaving So-ri perplexed.
For some reason, she felt like she was being teased.
Is this the time to be teasing?
So-ri looked at him with a sly face.
After erasing the laughter, he stared at So-ri’s eyes. So-ri was captivated by his seemingly endless deep pupils.
“Yoo So-ri.”
The voice calling me was low and stern. The eyes that had lost the laughter were quite serious.
“Do you think what I said was only as your professor?”
“…Is that so?”
He stared piercingly into So-ri’s eyes. His pleasant voice sounded low.
“When pointing out mistakes or faults of other residents, I don’t mix any special emotions.”
“That’s…”
“Don’t you still know what I mean?”
“…Yes.”
“I don’t care about other residents whether they cry, talk, or even pay attention.”
“…….”
“But you’re different.”
So-ri’s eyes became clear.
“You’re the one who said you were a special person to me.”
Suddenly, So-ri felt a queasy sensation in her chest.
“In a place where I’m not, I hope you don’t cry.”
To achieve that, she had to avoid showing tears easily.
But for a delicate person like her, it would be difficult.
“So, promise me you’ll only cry in front of me.”
Whatever happens, collapse only in front of me.
“I don’t want to see you crying just now…”
“Don’t want to. It’s unpleasant to see.”
“But why…”
“So I can comfort you.”
Instead of telling her not to cry, he wanted to convey his sincerity.
“When you have a sad moment, come running anytime. Grab me and cry as much as you want.”
Then he would hug her as much as she wanted and comfort her.
“Do that.”
Please, Yoo So-ri.
So-ri, with moisture in her eyes, nodded her head.
If he would be by her side forever.
She believed she could keep this promise.
Because she believed she would only be by Hyun-woo’s side, now and in the future…
The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
