At the Pyeongchang-dong family home.
After dropping Sori off at her apartment, Hyun-woo drove to his father’s house.
Voluntarily visiting his father was almost a first for him.
Kook-hwan, feeling restless, asked before Hyun-woo could speak.
“Isn’t it too soon to have a family meeting without even a greeting?”
“I don’t need your permission or introduction for the person I’m marrying.”
“What?”
Kook-hwan burst out, contrary to his intentions.
“The family meeting was just a formality to be polite to Sori’s mother.”
Stung by Hyun-woo’s sharp words, Kook-hwan clicked his tongue.
“Besides, you know her already as Ji-woo’s friend. You’re aware of how diligent and kind she is. What more explanation do you need?”
Indeed, Hyun-woo’s point was valid, as Sori had interned at Seohan. Kook-hwan had another concern.
“Why aren’t you having a wedding? What’s the use then?”
“I dislike the hassle. Working at the same hospital will definitely bring discomfort. I have a lot to teach her as a doctor, and I don’t want to care about others’ opinions.”
“So, nobody at the hospital knows you’re married?”
“That’s irrelevant to us.”
At that moment, Kook-hwan thought of Sun-hwa.
“Father, just let it go. I will live my life my way.”
As Hyun-woo rose to leave, Kook-hwan urgently asked,
“Have you ever met the chairman of Jeguk Hospital?”
Puzzled by the question, Hyun-woo sat back down.
“Why would I meet the chairman of Jeguk Hospital?”
“…”
“Why? Was the blind date actually the real chairman of Jeguk Hospital?”
Correctly guessing, Hyun-woo saw Kook-hwan’s pupils waver.
“So the rumors about the Jeguk Hospital chairman are true. Father, are you somehow involved with her?”
“I… Why would I be?”
Though slightly embarrassed, Kook-hwan denied it. It wouldn’t be a significant issue for Hyun-woo if Kook-hwan handled it well.
Hyun-woo didn’t believe his father needed to ask favors for him, considering his exceptional skills and his father’s established position at Seohan Hospital.
“Then the matter of marriage is settled.”
“What about your mother?”
“Mother would have liked Sori. She’s more than enough for me.”
Unsure how such natural words flowed from him, but they weren’t false.
Sori, with her warm heart, might even become a better doctor than him, always so cold.
Unable to retort, Kook-hwan’s expression hardened.
“Oh? Brother! When did you come?”
Just then, an angel arrived to warm the awkward atmosphere between father and son.
“I was just about to leave.”
Rising from the sofa, Hyun-woo patted Ji-woo’s shoulder, telling her to rest well.
“Just a moment, brother. I have something for you. Take this since you’re here.”
Ji-woo dragged Hyun-woo upstairs and handed him a shopping bag containing a boxed gift.
“Open it with Sori.”
“What is it?”
“I bought it because it was pretty. It’s no fun if I tell you. You’re going straight home from the hospital, right?”
“Of course.”
“Then hurry up. Sori must be waiting.”
Ji-woo now seemed to be urging Hyun-woo to hurry home.
“Have a hot night, brother!”
“Stop teasing.”
Hyun-woo rolled his eyes at Ji-woo and casually waved goodbye.
“Have you just arrived?”
Sori, changed into home wear, greeted Hyun-woo at the entrance. He was momentarily startled, unaccustomed to being welcomed home.
Usually, Sori avoided him by working late and leaving early, so it was rare to be greeted by someone at home.
“Haven’t you gone to bed yet?”
“No. I was about to go in, just waiting for you to come.”
Sori’s manner and speech seemed stiff, not her usual self in scrubs and a lab coat.
“Then rest easy. I’ll head in now.”
As Hyun-woo was about to leave, he remembered Ji-woo’s gift.
“Yoo Sori.”
“Yes?”
“Ji-woo gave me this gift. She said to open it together.”
Hyun-woo handed Sori the white shopping bag he was carrying. Sori took it with both hands.
“Together?”
“Yeah. She said it wouldn’t be fun if she told me what it was in advance.”
“Fun?”
Feeling a sense of foreboding, Sori’s voice trembled slightly. She clutched the shopping bag as if hiding it.
“Professor, may I open this gift alone?”
“Alone?”
“Yes. I really want to open it myself!”
Surprised by Sori’s determined shout, Hyun-woo couldn’t refuse her earnest request.
“Alright then.”
As soon as Hyun-woo agreed, Sori quickly disappeared into her room, leaving him with a puzzled expression.
Strange.
Sometimes, he understood why she and Ji-woo were friends.
Meanwhile, Sori sat on her bed, staring at the box.
What was Ji-woo planning to surprise them with this time?
Remembering the boxes of bubble gum and thong panties she had received as gifts from Ji-woo, her face flushed.
“What’s so heavy about this?”
She struggled with the weight of the box, curious about its contents.
After reading the English on the packaging and tilting her head in confusion, Sori gritted her teeth and tore open the wrapping.
Wow.
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.”
