“…Yeah, that. I’m sorry for that.”
With a face almost on the verge of tears from the injustice, Gwang Soon whispered quietly. Jae In sighed and put her hand on her forehead as the door of the yoga studio opened.
“Let’s stop there.”
Seok Dong, who appeared to have left his consultation to come here, wearing his doctor’s gown, put his arm around his mother’s shoulder.
“Son, why did you come up here!”
“I came up because I was worried about you, Mom. You’ve done enough, now I’ll talk. Mom, don’t worry and go home.”
Huddled in her son’s arms, and acting as if she were about to spill out a flood of tears, Gwang Soon gave Jae In one last glance before leaving the yoga studio. Jae In swept her loose bangs to the side and faced Seok Dong, whom she didn’t even want to look at.
“Please speak.”
“I will rewrite the pledge and give it to you. There won’t be an incident like before. I’m sorry for causing such a great loss.”
It was unexpected. Although it was a bit mechanical, Jae In was surprised by Seok Dong’s apology, given with a straight bow.
“Understood. Then, I’ll accept the pledge and we can wrap this up.”
That’s when she had decided to truly end things, just by receiving the pledge.
“However, I will also give Ms. Yoon Jae In another chance.”
Jae In’s delicate brows furrowed at the sudden introduction of “however,” and the nonsensical claim of giving her another chance.
“A button wrongly sewn can be fixed. Let me introduce myself, I am Oh Seok Dong.”
“What are you doing now….”
“I fell for you at first sight. I think I like you.”
“Ah, seriously!”
Sang Hwa, who was standing behind Jae In whose speech was stuck, spewed out a curse mixed with surprise and came forward. However, Seok Dong remained undisturbed and maintained a serious expression.
His earnest expression reminded her of the leaves rolling on the ground.
Rustling, rustling, making her want to step on them heavily.

“I remember how you treated me. I saw how you treated my mom. But when I face you, my heart beats.”
Could it be a hobby to read romance novels, like mushrooms that grow in a basement? Jae In’s face turned ugly for the first time in her life as she watched Seok Dong blabbering without blinking an eye, as if he was the male protagonist or reciting lines from a book.
“Is he seriously insane?”
Jae In blocked Sang Hwa, whose expression looked as if he would grab the man in front of him and crumple him at any moment. She took a deep breath, filled with a wish to avoid any more involvement.
“….Everyone’s heart beats. If it doesn’t, it means you’re dead. Mr. Oh Seok Dong, let me make this clear. I have absolutely no interest in you. In fact, I dislike the idea of you having any interest in me.”
“You might not understand now. But you will soon.”
“I don’t know what you mean by ‘I will know,’ but I have no intention of finding out. I also want to nicely point out that this is the end of our conversation.”
“Ms. Yoon Jae In, as time passes, you will be by my side, reminiscing about our first meeting and laughing. In a few years, we will have a beautiful family…Ah, what!”
As she walked away from the rambling Seok Dong, Jae In turned around at the sudden exclamation. Behind the irritated Seok Dong, who was squinting, stood a woman Jae In had seen somewhere before.
The woman, who looked to be in her mid40s and had a neat image, was dressed in a business suit. It was this woman who had poked Seok Dong’s shoulder.
“I missed my dental appointment because of you. How long do I have to wait? I really made time to come here.”
It was Director Jang who had come to the dentist due to sudden gum swelling.
She had assumed it was because of fatigue, but her swollen gums did not subside. In her haste, she ended up here while searching for a dentist that accepted sameday appointments.
While Director Jang was registering for her appointment, she saw the dental clinic’s director tell the receptionist at the front desk that he would step away for a moment and ascend the stairs. Unable to wait any longer, she had come to find the doctor.
However, witnessing him babbling nonsense, she decided she couldn’t wait any longer and interrupted.
“…..I will be down shortly. Ms. Jae In, let’s talk again.”
“There’s nothing more to discuss. If you come back up here, I won’t be so kind. Don’t come up thinking otherwise. And don’t call me.”
Seok Dong, who seemed to have more to say, turned around with a regretful look in his eyes as he licked his pursed lips. As Director Jang turned to follow Seok Dong down the stairs, she looked back at Jae In, who was grinding her teeth in disbelief.

‘Somehow, the address seemed familiar.’
She had thought Jae In was really pretty when she saw her in a photograph, but it seemed the photograph had not captured half of her beauty. Not only her appearance, but also the aura she exuded, Yoon Jae In was an extremely charming woman.
By chance, she had personally confirmed the existence of the annoying dental clinic director who was pestering Jae In.
As she entered the dental clinic, Director Jang added another task to her todo list. She felt like she needed to keep an eye on the irritated looking dental clinic director.
“Try to schedule it for spring. The Hyun brothers were cautiously mentioning fall, but there’s no need to wait until fall. The engagement period was too long.”
“About that engagement.”
“Tae Seo.”
Tae Seo bowed his head next to his grandmother who called him. He was about to call Jo Dae Hoon, the representative of Hyun Construction, to inform him of the engagement’s termination when he received a call from his grandmother’s secretary.
When Tae Seo notified the breakup of the engagement, he too did not know how his biological father, Chairman Kang Shin Jae, would react. But it didn’t matter. Up to this point, his father had not shown much interest in Tae Seo.
Would the engagement be any different? Perhaps he might even welcome the dismissal of Hyun Construction, which he found unsatisfactory. He was the type to welcome anything that helped him maintain his position.
Tae Seo didn’t enjoy coming to Yeonryudong. In fact, although Yeonryudong was said to be his home, since he left the place at a very young age, he rarely visited. The only reason Tae Seo visited Yeonryudong was because of his grandmother, Madam Im Hong Jin.
“Did you hear from the doctor?”
“Yes.”
And his sudden visit to his ancestral home today was also because of Madam Im Hong Jin. It was due to the sudden collapse of the woman, who was still active as the director of Kangseon Art Center at the age of 82.
“They say I should not be shocked. Listen to grandma.”
“……”
“I understand. That you’re unwilling.”
“Why do you insist when you know?”
In Hong Jin’s view, Tae Seo was someone who wouldn’t commit to anyone. Having lost his mother at a young age, he was pushed by his coldhearted biological father and had been wandering abroad like a man without a home or a family ever since.
So it was obvious that even after coming to Korea, he couldn’t adjust to this place.

Although he was born to be coldhearted, from the perspective of Hong Jin who cared for Tae Seo, she wanted him to quickly establish a family that he could become attached to.

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.
