“Love, meet him once. Yoon-hee’s brother is handsome and has a really nice personality. I’ve seen him a few times.”
“Not just because he’s my brother, but he’s really nice. To me, they seem to match well.”
With compliments from Su-yeon and Yoon-hee’s consecutive mentions of her brother, Love felt awkward.
It felt like Dohan’s warm gaze was felt from the side.
“Thank you for saying that, but I have a boyfriend.”
Saying that she didn’t have a boyfriend when he was right next to her wouldn’t be polite, so she decided to stop there.
“Really? I didn’t notice because you didn’t seem to show signs of being in a relationship.”
“How long have you been dating? When did you meet?”
As the women raised their voices, more people around became interested.
Suddenly, the discussion reached the managers and even the team leader, attracting everyone’s attention.
Love, who didn’t expect things to escalate like this, felt perplexed.
Meanwhile, due to urging answers from the front, she had no choice but to open her mouth.
“Well, he’s someone I used to date. We happened to meet again not long ago.”
Unable to lie well, she stumbled while telling the truth.
“I thought it would be terrible to meet again after breaking up badly with my ex-boyfriend. But it seems different for Love.”
“But you broke up badly and still met again?”
“How did you break up? Did your ex-boyfriend cheat on you?”
Love was startled, shaking her hands.
“No, nothing like that.”
“Then did you hit him? There are a lot of stories about dating violence in the news these days.”
“Oh, no!”
Suddenly, she remembered slapping Dohan when they broke up. Love was surprised, and she burst into tears.
Because she had committed violence herself.
“Oh? It seems real. Did you really get hit by your boyfriend?”
“Love, even if you’re kind, you must filter out men who hit you.”
“It seems like Love is too kind, and that’s a big problem.”
In an instant, her boyfriend turned into a villain. Love tried to explain, but the tears didn’t stop, making her miserable.
At that moment, Dohan handed her a cup.
“T-thank you.”
Feeling sorry, Love couldn’t bring herself to look at him.
She quickly drank the water to stop her tears and then explained.
“He didn’t cheat on me or hit me. It’s just that when we broke up, I lied about going to study abroad in the United States.”
She thought it would be better than admitting that she misunderstood, thinking he had another woman due to the ring. However, the response from returning colleagues was cold.
No, it was hot.
“So, that was a lie? You said let’s break up, but you were actually not going to study abroad?”
“No, well, there are guys like that.”
“But you’re meeting that guy again?”
“Absolutely not, Love! That’s not it.”
“Yeah, Love. You’re meeting such a guy because you don’t have any other men.”
The more she tried to explain, the more irreparable it became.
“Well, there were circumstances, you know…”
“Talking about circumstances. He probably cheated on you, right?”
“That’s right. So, don’t tell absurd lies. You shouldn’t take back such a guy.”
“Sorry, Love, but he’s garbage.”
“Even I can tell. He’ll probably suggest breaking up with lies again soon.”
With Dong-sik also opposing, Love couldn’t lift her head.
It was unnecessary to say that she had a boyfriend.
Dohan must be feeling terrible right now.
“Love, have a drink first. I need to cool down a bit and have a drink.”
Starting with Yoon-hee, team members took turns filling Love’s glass.
With each sip of alcohol, she had to listen to sincere advice.
Love, who was already drunk, felt her vision spinning even more.
Her head was dizzy, and her head kept drooping.
“But, how did you first meet that guy?”
“During the freshman orientation in college. I fell for him at first sight and confessed.”
Love answered diligently even though she was falling asleep.
Even if she was too drunk, it was not her head but her heart that easily responded to the question.
“Then, did you start dating from then?”
“No. Since I confessed, he told me to like other guys.”
“Wow, really. He was a bad guy from the beginning. So what? How did you end up dating?”
“Well, that, um…”
Love raised her drooping head.
“How. We ended up dating.”
Why Dohan started liking her, she didn’t know.
It was engraved in his heart, not hers.
No matter how much she thought, she couldn’t figure it out. Turning her head, she grabbed Dohan’s arm on the table.
“Oppa, how we started dating…”
Love, who said that much, couldn’t overcome her drunkenness and fell asleep.
As her tilted head fell down, Dohan quickly supported her face with his hand and leaned her against his shoulder.
For a moment, everyone’s eyes seemed to pour down.
The sound of chopsticks falling from someone’s hand even rang out.
“Oh, Director Oh, please help.”
Dohan asked Nayoung, who was sitting next to him, for help.
Then he stood up, ready to lift Love.
“Ah. Ah, yes.”
Only then did Nayoung, who had been absent-minded, understand his words and quickly stood up.
While he lifted Love, the team members’ gaze followed only his actions.
“Why, Director Ji, did you… Love?”
Yoon-hee, the first to come to her senses, managed to say difficult words.
She couldn’t understand the situation in front of her at all.
But then Dohan summarized it with one word.
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.
