Perhaps it was because she was eating dinner, but she remembered the athletic department’s cafeteria where she had gone a while ago.
She brought it up because it was delicious enough to recommend, but somehow Do Han’s expression was not good.
“You’ve been there, haven’t you.”
“Yes, a few days ago.”
“Alone?”
“No, with Ji Woo and another friend.”
“Jung Yoon Jae?”
“How do you know Yoon Jae, senior?”
“You mentioned it before, didn’t you? When you, Tae Hoon, and Kang Ji Woo were eating at the engineering department.”
“Ah, you have a good memory. You even remember the name.”
Sa Rang was surprised that he remembered Yoon Jae’s name.
Do Han was equally surprised that he knew the name.
Jung Yoon Jae from the Department of Physical Education.
He remembered his face because he had seen him with Sa Rang a few times.
He also remembered Tae Hoon saying they looked good together.
He said this nonchalantly as he finished his hamburger and wiped his mouth with a napkin.
“You seem to have gotten close. Eating meals together.”
“Well, yeah.”
“So, does he have a girlfriend? You must have asked by now.”
He looked away and drank his beverage.
Unable to look at Sa Rang for saying something unnecessary, he was silent.

When no response came from her, Do Han, feeling strange, looked up with the straw in his mouth.
“Do you, by any chance, have feelings for Yoon Jae?”
“What?”
Do Han coughed heavily as he choked on his beverage.
He scowled as if what she said was absurd.
“No, it’s just that you remember Yoon Jae’s name and keep asking if he has a girlfriend. It’s suspicious.”
Seeing that Do Han was not responding with an incredulous expression, it seemed that was not the case.
Sa Rang felt relieved and answered his previous question.
“He doesn’t have a girlfriend.”
“You said you weren’t curious before so you didn’t ask.”
“Ji Woo asked.”
“Why would someone who already has a boyfriend…”
“He said it’s okay to be my boyfriend.”
Do Han was at a loss for words.
It seemed that everyone saw people the same way.
Tae Hoon, Ji Woo, and even him, they all thought the same thing when they saw Sa Rang and Yoon Jae together.
His phone vibrated as he frowned in discontent.
It was a call from Hye Ri.

Do Han looked at her name for a moment before pressing the call button.
“Why.”
Sa Rang looked up at him at his cold oneword response.
Wondering who he would answer the phone so curtly to, she heard a woman’s voice from the other end of the phone.
Oppa, are you at the engineering department now?
“No.”
Then at the library?
“Outside the school.”
Ah, then when will you be back?
“I’ll be late.”
Sa Rang recognized that it was Hye Ri just by the woman’s voice that was heard.
It was the junior who said she was the only one who knew his phone number.
As Sa Rang held back her bitter feelings, the conversation between the two continued.
“What’s up.”
I was drinking with a friend and got a call from my dad. He said to take your car and come.
When Do Han didn’t respond, Hye Ri spoke again.
It’s okay if you’re not at school. I’ll take a taxi. Don’t worry about me saying you dropped me off at home.
“Alright. Got it.”
His face darkened after the call, and Sa Rang was careful to speak.
But her curiosity couldn’t hold her tongue.

“Was it the sister I saw in front of your house last time?”
Do Han quietly nodded, and Sa Rang changed her question.
“Do you like that sister?”
Do Han, who was worried that there would be a big fuss if Kyung Chul knew that he didn’t take Hye Ri, looked at Sa Rang at the unexpected question.
She had a face like a child who had her candy stolen, as if she was greatly upset.
“No.”
Sa Rang, who had thrown the question and had a nervous heart, sparkled her eyes.
Having said no, she gained a little courage and opened her mouth again.
“Can I ask what kind of relationship you have?”
“Already asking, what.”
Do Han looked at Sa Rang, who was feeling embarrassed.
After a brief moment of hesitation, he obediently answered.
“It’s my younger sibling.”
Sa Rang’s eyes widened enormously.
She had guessed that they might have been in a relationship since Hye Ri had said they were close.

Or, as Ji Woo suggested, she had anticipated that they might have been bed partners, but she was completely wrong.
“Real sibling?”
Ji Do Han, Park Hye Ri.
Since their last names were different, they couldn’t possibly be full siblings. Could they have different fathers?
Sa Rang wanted to ask how they were connected as a family.
“My father remarried. Hye Ri is my stepmother’s daughter. So she is my sibling to me.”
Do Han neatly answered her curiosity.
It was a fact that he hadn’t disclosed to anyone, but it came out easily.
He didn’t want to receive any unnecessary misunderstandings from Sa Rang.
“Seems like even Tae Hoon didn’t know.”
Sa Rang was confused.
She was even more surprised because even Tae Hoon, who was closest to Do Han, only knew Hye Ri as his known sibling.
“I thought it would be okay to tell you.”
“Why…?”
Sa Rang asked with curious eyes why he was only telling her a fact that no one knew.

But at his answer, her heart dropped.
“Because I trust you.”
At his short remark, she froze on the spot.
“I don’t think you will go around talking about it.”
Leaving Sa Rang, who had even forgotten to blink, he stood up.
“If you’re done eating, let’s go.”
As Do Han walked away, Sa Rang hastily followed him.
Her head was a mess and she wasn’t herself at all.
But she didn’t understand why her heart was beating so uselessly.
((())) ((())) ((()))
Outside, it was already dark.
The cute buildings and rides were lit up, adding to the atmosphere.
It was a perfect atmosphere for couples.

Sa Rang liked the path full of tulips more than other places.
The garden packed with flowers of yellow, red, purple, and many other colors held her feet in place.
She had to take a picture.
Sa Rang quickly pulled out her phone and took pictures here and there.
She desperately wanted to take a picture of Do Han again, but she had painfully learned from the last incident that keeping his photo was dangerous, so she refrained.
But she succeeded in taking a picture together under the pretext of having to write a report.
After watching the parade, the two moved to a place where they could watch the fireworks.
Sa Rang couldn’t see the spectacular parade at night or the sparkling fireworks sewn into the dark sky at all.
Only Do Han shone in her eyes.
While he was watching the parade and fireworks, she only looked at him.

“Senior.”
Sa Rang, who was captivated by the light called Ji Do Han, called him.
Do Han, who was watching the fireworks explode in the sky with a bang, lowered his head at her voice.
Sa Rang thought she should shut her mouth right now.
In a moment, she will definitely regret it, so she begged herself not to do it.
But her overflowing feelings had already spilled out as a confession.
“I like you.”
The reason she could only blurt out, even knowing that the other person would reject her, was probably because this sentence had been circling in her mouth hundreds, thousands of times.
Sa Rang, who had tried to stop approaching him because of the words that he and Hye Ri were close, now had no reason to hesitate.
If they were simply family, she wanted to have him.
She couldn’t bear it anymore.
She couldn’t handle her growing feelings anymore.

If she didn’t confess, she felt like her heart would explode.
So she ended up saying she liked him to save herself.
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.”
