A Relentless Senior (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 4
Do Han stopped the car in front of a house surrounded by high walls.
Getting out, he opened the passenger door, and Hye Ri staggered out unsteadily.
With an indifferent expression, Do Han grabbed her arm.
“Let’s go to the hospital.”
“You know it’s useless. I’ll be fine after resting a bit.”
While Hye Ri unlocked the gate and walked through the garden, Do Han supported her.
As they entered the living room, Kyung Chul, who had been sitting on the sofa, immediately jumped up upon seeing them.
“Hye Ri! Did you faint again?”
“No, Dad. I just felt a little dizzy.”
Kyung Chul, pale-faced, led Hye Ri to the sofa and sat her down.
He rushed into the kitchen, brought back a glass of water and some medicine, and quickly placed them in her hands.
“You were doing fine for a while—what happened? Did something happen at school?”
“It just suddenly felt hard to breathe. You know it happens sometimes.”
After Hye Ri took the medicine and set the cup on the table, Kyung Chul sat beside her and tightly held her hand.
She had been consistently treated for panic disorder since childhood, but a full recovery was far from easy.
Just when she seemed fine, an attack would unexpectedly strike in the most unpredictable places.
He couldn’t possibly follow his grown daughter around every day, so Kyung Chul always lived in anxiety.
“I couldn’t possibly get home alone this time, so I’m sorry, but I asked Oppa.”
“Sorry for what? I even bought you a car for this exact reason. Don’t worry about it.”
Hye Ri glanced at Do Han.
She felt uneasy seeing her father so preoccupied with her that he kept Do Han standing there the whole time.
“Dad, Oppa hasn’t been home in ages—go talk to him a bit.”
Only then did Kyung Chul shift his gaze toward Do Han.
“Why are you just standing there? Come sit down.”
“I have class.”
Since they weren’t exactly close enough to sit side by side and chat cozily, Do Han intended to quickly say goodbye and leave.
But Kyung Chul seemed to have more to say.
“For now, pick Hye Ri up after her classes and bring her home.”
“Dad, I really am fine.”
Hye Ri quickly tried to stop him.
Last year, after enrolling in university, she’d ridden in Do Han’s car for an entire year.
She had finally convinced Kyung Chul she could commute alone because she felt too guilty—but now this had happened again.
“What do you mean ‘fine’? What if something sudden happens?”
Hye Ri let out a quiet sigh.
She knew her father wouldn’t budge an inch when it came to her.
The only option was to compromise.
“Then just for one week, okay? Please, Dad.”
Reluctantly, Kyung Chul nodded, giving in to his daughter’s pleading.
His gaze, so tender toward Hye Ri just a moment before, turned sharp as he looked at Do Han.
“Why do you make things so difficult when living here would solve everything?”
“Why bring that up again? Oppa, just go. Thank you for today.”
Hye Ri frowned at Kyung Chul, signaling him to stop.
Do Han quietly watched the father and daughter for a moment before bowing slightly and turning to leave.
As he walked toward the door, their conversation drifted after him.
“Dad, if you keep doing this, I’ll feel even more guilty toward Oppa.”
“That’s exactly why I’m doing it. If he lived here, he could drive our beloved daughter to school every morning—that’d be great.”
“He already dropped out of his own university and transferred to mine because of me. That’s already more than enough for me to be grateful and sorry for.”
“What’s so great about that? What has Do Han even done for you?”
At Kyung Chul’s raised voice, Do Han briefly halted.
He reached for the door, but his hand went limp.
Seeing Do Han still standing by the door, Kyung Chul deliberately spoke even louder, as if wanting him to hear.
“He should live his whole life repaying the debt he owes you.”
“Dad…”
Despite Hye Ri’s anxious attempts to stop him, it was no use.
“That heartless guy—I can’t see anything he does as anything but hypocrisy.”
Do Han tightly shut his eyes, then opened them and pushed the door open.
Only after stepping outside and getting into his car did he finally feel like he could breathe again.
Living his whole life repaying a debt.
It wasn’t wrong—but coming from his own father, Ji Kyung Chul, it felt utterly misplaced, and a twisted smile escaped him.
***
Monday, 9 a.m.
Sa Rang arrived early to the lecture hall and sat in the front row.
But as time passed and Do Han still didn’t show up, she moved to the very back to take a seat—
so he could find her easily even if he came in late.
She briefly considered calling him but decided against it.
She still felt hesitant about calling him outright.
Afraid he might think she was being bothersome over something trivial, she fidgeted with her phone until class began.
Fortunately, just as the professor started taking attendance, he slipped in through the back door.
As soon as Do Han sat beside her, Sa Rang thought she understood why he was late.
He faintly smelled of alcohol, as if he’d been drinking until dawn.
His face looked worn out from exhaustion.
Though this course was only a retake, she seemed far more concerned about his grades than he was.
If he were her junior, she’d scold him—but he was her senior by six years, so that wasn’t an option.
Just as she sighed quietly to herself, the professor’s voice cut sharply into her thoughts.
“The weather’s been lovely lately, hasn’t it? Flowers are blooming, spring rain is falling—so I’m assigning your first task.”
Students groaned and murmured, but the professor paid them no mind.
“You’ll realize it’s not really homework—it’s more like having fun. Just go on a date with the partner you chose last class.”
At the word “date,” Sa Rang startled and dropped her pen.
She knew the course was titled “Love and Marriage,” but she hadn’t expected such a direct assignment.
She stole a glance at Do Han.
While her heart pounded like it might burst, he sat there calmly—eyes closed, fast asleep.
She wasn’t sure what she’d expected, but a wave of disappointment crashed over her.
“You two will plan a date together, actually go through with it, and then write a report on what you liked and what you found lacking. You’ll get this assignment once a month—March, April, May, and June. People’s feelings change as the seasons shift, don’t they? On days like this, where would you want to go? On days like that, what would you feel like doing? Over time, you’ll find your feelings toward each other changing too. After all, this lecture isn’t called the ‘Couple-Making Machine’ for nothing!”
Students paired with someone of the same gender voiced their disappointment.
Those who’d quietly approached the professor to switch partners with someone they liked quietly cheered in relief.
Sa Rang felt both excited and uneasy.
The mere thought of going on a date alone with Do Han already made her pulse race—but she doubted he’d take this assignment seriously at all.
He barely showed up on time for a class he was clearly taking against his will—why would he pour any effort into the assignment?
She’d be lucky if she didn’t end up walking the whole date route alone.
Still watching Do Han, who remained sound asleep, Sa Rang shook her head.
***
After class, Do Han bought a canned coffee from the vending machine in the hallway.
Without collecting his change, he turned to Sa Rang and asked,
“What do you want to drink?”
“I’ll have the same.”
They each took a can and sat down on the bench beside the vending machine.
As the cold coffee slid down his throat, Do Han finally felt sober.
An old acquaintance from his previous university had kept him out drinking until dawn, so he hadn’t gotten home until late.
His alarm had gone off several times that morning, but he’d been too exhausted to get up.
He’d only woken up parched to find his room already bright with daylight and had rushed out after a hurried shower and change of clothes.
Retaking classes was irritating enough—he certainly didn’t want to end up retaking this annoyingly titled “Love and Marriage” course a third time.
Thanks to his all-out sprint, he’d avoided being late—but sleep deprivation kept making his eyes droop.
Still, the professor’s booming voice wouldn’t let him doze off.
Do Han quickly finished his coffee and tossed the empty can into the nearby trash bin.
“You seem a lot more selfish than I thought.”
Leaning toward Sa Rang, he stared at her silently.
Startled by his sudden proximity, Sa Rang instinctively leaned back.
He was so close that her mind went completely blank.
“I—I’m selfish…?”
“Aren’t you even curious whether I’d show up to class or not? It’s not like we’re strangers—you didn’t even bother calling once.”
Sa Rang felt unfairly accused but couldn’t say a word.
She wanted to explain—how she’d picked up her phone several times, how she’d deliberately sat in the back so he’d find her easily if he came late—but she kept her lips tightly shut.
She was afraid that if she told the truth, he’d see right through her feelings.
Yet she wasn’t the type to stay silent either—so she had to say something.
“Was I… allowed to call?”
“What?”
“I didn’t call because I wasn’t sure if it was okay.”
Do Han let out an incredulous breath, as if she’d lost her mind.
“Why would I have given you my number if it wasn’t okay? I gave it to you so you’d call in situations like this.”
“I’ll call next time, then.”
“You’re really laying it on thick.”
Seeing Do Han scowl, she cautiously added,
“Or maybe I should…”
Wondering what she was about to say, Do Han stared intently at her.
After a brief hesitation, Sa Rang finally spoke, her voice barely above a whisper.
“Would you like me to give you a morning call every Monday?”
“A morning call?”
“Yes. You seem to have trouble waking up early—if I call to wake you, would that help?”
When Do Han didn’t respond immediately, Sa Rang worried she’d overstepped and quickly continued,
“It might be too much trouble, though. I was just throwing the idea out there—don’t worry about it…”
“Okay.”
“What?”
Though she’d been the one to suggest it, Sa Rang’s eyes widened in surprise—he’d actually agreed.
“I’ll turn off my alarm, but I’ll answer your call. Still, won’t it be bothersome? It’s not just for a day or two.”
“It’s fine. I’m already an early riser, and I usually don’t have anything to do at that hour anyway—I end up cleaning the bathroom and things like that.”
“…My mother used to say that too.”
For a moment, Do Han thought of his late mother.
Because his father was often away overnight, his mother frequently lost sleep—and would rise at dawn to cook, clean, and do laundry.
As a child, he’d simply thought she was diligent; only later did he understand why.
She’d needed to fill that lonely time with something—anything—to endure it.
“Anyway, thanks. I’ll leave it to you, then.”
“Sure.”
Sa Rang, who’d been secretly thrilled at the thought of waking Do Han every Monday morning, now smiled awkwardly.
She’d been trying so hard not to seem childish—now she’d gone and compared herself to a mother.
She already regretted what she’d just said.
“When should we do the assignment?”
“What?”
Caught off guard by the sudden shift in topic, she repeated the question.
“The date assignment—when are you free?”
“You were asleep, weren’t you?”
She’d assumed he’d been sleeping the whole time, so she was shocked he even knew about the assignment.
She’d been quietly admiring him the entire time—just imagining what might’ve happened if he’d opened his eyes midway made her dizzy.
“You really are selfish.”
At Do Han’s sudden remark, Sa Rang’s eyes flew open as if something terrible had happened.
Finding her rabbit-like startled expression oddly cute, Do Han couldn’t help but feel playful.
Meanwhile, Sa Rang was baffled—this was the second time he’d called her selfish.
What had she done now to deserve that?
While she sat anxiously wondering, Do Han narrowed his eyes and let his disappointment show.
“If you saw me sleeping, you should’ve woken me up. You’re trying to get your grade all by yourself—you didn’t even wake someone sleeping during class, and you didn’t call when I wasn’t showing up. I really didn’t think you were like that.”
Sa Rang’s vision went dark.
She didn’t know how to bare her heart honestly—words wouldn’t come out properly.
“It’s—not like that…”
“Do you think I’m a heartless guy too?”
“What?”
Seeing Sa Rang’s flustered reaction, Do Han felt a prick of defensiveness—was she really thinking that?
“So you decided you shouldn’t get close to me, right?”
His self-deprecating tone, as if saying, “What else would you expect from me?” made her blurt out urgently,
“I want to get closer to you!”
At her firm tone, Do Han’s eyes widened slightly.
She hadn’t said she liked him—just that she wanted to get closer—but for some reason, his heart fluttered.
When the male lead is punished by carrying the female lead’s child and having periods like a woman
“I’ve given birth to two children for you, yet you still think about him.
Was I nothing but his substitute to you from beginning to end?”
