In his tender voice, not only Sarang’s face but also her ears turned red.
Although it was too early to call it breakfast or too late to call it lunch, and they were the only guests in the restaurant, such a conversation was not familiar to them.
“I-I’m fine.”
She answered quietly, avoiding eye contact.
“I’ll be more careful next time. I must have made it hard for you yesterday.”
Dohan said he was considerate, but it could have been his thoughts.
From Sarang’s perspective, it might have been overwhelming to accept.
Knowing that, he couldn’t easily let go.
The thread of reason he had barely grasped was broken by Sarang’s murky gaze, and the cooled heat from her delicate touch quickly flared up.
In the end, Dohan poured endless kisses and held her for a long time.
If the words “stop” had come from Sarang’s lips, he might have stopped. However, even as she breathed heavily, Sarang didn’t utter those words. So, it seemed she lost even more composure. Just like their first kiss with her was incredibly good, last night was the same. Even now, sitting down to eat at 11 AM, Dohan noticed his body reacting, realizing he had fallen hard for Sarang. The desire to get married and live together became more desperate.
“It wasn’t just difficult.”
Sarang muttered quietly. She felt sorry for making him look like trash to her colleagues. She felt uneasy, as if he had forcibly embraced her, talking like that.
“It was good. Even if it hurt and was difficult, it was good enough to want to continue.”
Sarang still mumbled with her head down. Such conversations were awkward for both of them.
On the other hand, Dohan’s heart was bombarded by Sarang’s honesty. The nearly extinguished embers reignited, and he felt awkward, but with her breath, the flames flared up.
He had planned to take her home after eating. If she suggested going back to their home instead of Sarang’s, would he become garbage this time? In his heart, he just wanted to hold her right now, regardless of what would happen.
He left the house for no reason. He brought her to the restaurant for no reason. The purpose was to feed her something at home and restore her energy. Then, perhaps, to kiss her once more.
Was she the only one who enjoyed it? Did he go too far? Dohan, who was burdened with apologies, was ignited by her words that she also enjoyed it.
⭐⭐⭐
“My feet won’t move, seriously.”
Sarang sighed heavily in front of the office. She was afraid to go to work, so she came late. Now, just opening the door seemed difficult. What should she say?
First, she should apologize for deceiving her colleagues and having a secret relationship. She had thought about it all day yesterday, but still had no answer.
Thinking she might be late if she continued, Sarang took a deep breath and opened the door.
“Hello.”
There was no good morning greeting, and she cautiously lowered her head. Unusually, her colleagues were gathered and drinking coffee from early in the morning.
“Come on, Sarang. Thanks to you, the coffee was good.”
“Sarang, thanks for the good coffee.”
Assistant Manager Seo Yoon-hee smiled, holding a paper cup on the first-floor café. Sarang, puzzled, looked around.
Approaching hesitantly, Dohan also handed Sarang a coffee cup. As she awkwardly stood there holding the paper cup, Nayoung explained the situation.
“Assistant Manager Ji treated us to coffee. He said sorry for keeping your relationship a secret.”
“Oh.”
Sarang looked at Dohan with an awkward expression. She didn’t know he had such a caring side.
For the first time, the team members were gathered together, drinking coffee from early in the morning.
“Come on, Sarang.”
“Thanks to Sarang, I enjoyed the coffee.”
Deputy Seo Yoon-hee held a paper cup from the first-floor café and smiled. Sarang wondered what was going on and tilted her head.
Approaching hesitantly, Dohan also handed Sarang a cup of coffee. When she stood there holding the paper cup with a puzzled expression, Nayoung explained the situation.
“Manager Ji treated us to coffee. He apologized for keeping your relationship a secret.”
“Oh.”
Sarang looked at Dohan with an awkward expression. She didn’t know he had such a caring side.
How to face her team members, and the embarrassment of thinking only of herself, overwhelmed her.
Unlike me, who came in on time just to avoid coming to work, they arrived at the office early, even preparing coffee. She felt sorry for him.
Although I made the mistake, he is the one handling the aftermath.
If, on the contrary, Dohan had revealed the relationship during a company gathering, what would I have done?
I probably would have been angry and resentful.
What should I do now?
Still feeling like a newcomer, Sarang became sulky.
“Manager Ji said the person he wanted to see was Sarang. Haha…”
Dongsik, feeling somehow resentful, glanced at the two.
Even though he pressed and threatened Dohan, he couldn’t find out who that woman was, and it was really frustrating.
He seemed to know why his mouth had been heavy.
It would have been more careful to speak because they were on the same team.
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
