“Why didn’t you do it?”
Why couldn’t I have done it? Since I’m in this state, I obviously couldn’t.
Sori didn’t dare to respond to him aloud, who had asked her with a calm demeanor.
She stubbornly only stared out the car window.
“Sori.”
“…..”
“Sori. You aren’t answering.”
His voice had been in professor mode for a while, and it was low.
He was starting to wonder why she was behaving like this, and Seo Hyun Woo’s face was gradually becoming cold.
Suddenly, Sori whipped her head towards him.
Hyun Woo stared back at her expressionlessly.
His grumbling eyes, questioning what she could possibly be dissatisfied with, were a bit cruel to Sori.
“You proposed, but then you went on a matchmaking date, which was too much.”
Ah, that’s the problem?
A sigh that seemed like it might escape any moment slipped out of Hyun Woo, who belatedly felt disillusioned.
But looking at Sori in disguise, he didn’t know why he was on the verge of laughter.
The fact that he even found Yu Sori, who daringly sassed him, a bit cute was…
Surely… he wasn’t going crazy.
Yeah, it was a new experience. How could he not laugh, seeing her like this?
With a hardset face, he spat out coldly.
“Give me back that necklace.”
He reached out his hand, asking for the thing he’d suddenly given her before.
With a deeply furrowed brow.
Sori, startled, looked back at him with her big, belllike eyes.
Did he want to take back the ring necklace because she ruined the matchmaking meeting?
Hyun Woo stared expressionlessly at Sori’s clear eyes, indicating his outstretched hand with a nod, as if to confirm the kill.
Put it here quickly.
“…..I don’t have it right now.”
Sori decided to dodge for now.
She certainly wouldn’t admit that it was in her tote bag.
His face, which had been grumbling all along, turned pale as tofu.
However.
“Then we have to go to the hospital. It should be at the hospital. While we’re at it, we’ll address the crime of not submitting the assignment.”
“Ah, wait a minute……!”
Darn it. Really darn it.
Who was it because of, that she had come all the way here?
She had that thought, but it was reckless to not know what his thoughts about the matchmaking meeting were. She may not even have realized that she had made a big mistake.
With no other choice, Sori opened her tote bag and rummaged through it, pursing her lips unnecessarily.
“It seems like it might be in here.”
She really wanted to avoid going back to the hospital today if possible.
Hyun Woo, holding back laughter, watched Sori’s round head, which was bent as if trying to go inside the bag.
It was strange that he didn’t find it irritating to tease her.
Seeing Yu Sori flustered was strangely enjoyable.
And kind of cute.
It wasn’t like the ridiculous cuteness of his younger brother, Jiwoo.
“Don’t pretend to have what you don’t.”
“I really do. Just a moment.”
As she let out a long sigh instead of laughter, the sound of her rummaging through her bag hastened.
“Here.”
She finally found the ring necklace and handed it to him.
He received the necklace with a dissatisfied look and hastily moved the huge, clumsy bag on Sori’s leg to the backseat.
“……!”
Sori’s eyes widened in surprise. She quickly glanced at his complexion with her round, chestnutcolored eyes.
Due to his straight gaze, it was difficult to gauge his feelings with just his elegant profile.
“Come to think of it, shouldn’t I be the one who’s angry?”
Pause.
At his words, all of Sori’s movements momentarily froze.
Her breath, her fidgeting fingers, her flickering gaze, everything paused as they awaited his next words.
“Why are you suddenly angry……”
His words trailed off in surprise.
Then he finally turned his eyes towards Sori.
“You forgot your place and didn’t do your job.”
“……”
“You’ve ruined my arranged marriage without even answering about our marriage yet.”
Ah……
Despite her low and somewhat long sigh, Hyunwoo had to hold back a laugh that was strangely ready to burst today.
Did I unknowingly possess a devilish nature? I don’t know why I find Sori’s confusion amusing.
Holding back a laugh inside, he momentarily turned his head towards the left window.
“But you said you’d give me a week.”
At Sori’s muttered complaint, he turned his head again and shot a look at her.
“Just answer, now.”
“……!”
His firm voice and cold gaze tied up Sori like a noose.
“No need. There’s no need to hear the answer.”
“……?!”
Suddenly he unfastened the necklace and held one end in each hand, stretching it long and moving closer to Sori.
Approaching as if to hug her stiff neck, he gently put the necklace around her neck.
And brought his lips close to her ear, and injected a soft voice.
“You have no choice. You’ll have to be my wife.”
Sori’s cheeks turned red, and her whole body shivered.
Of course, the one who made it happen had no such intention.
Seohan Hospital.
Sunhwa, who couldn’t even spare time to change her clothes, went straight to the director’s office as soon as she arrived at the hospital.
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
