Now he may be making a fuss about not wanting to marry, but there was no way she could leave her handsome son, who was quite the catch, alone.
His father would scrutinize and choose a woman who would benefit Kangseon in many ways, and Tae Seo, who didn’t care who the woman was, would eventually end up marrying her.
“I know you, lad.”
Hong Jin did not want Tae Seo to have a marriage of convenience like his father, bouncing from one woman to another without settling down in a family.
But with a guy who had no interest or affection for women. If that was the case, she thought it wouldn’t be so bad to follow her husband’s will.
Hyun Construction may have been on the decline, but Tae Seo, in Hong Jin’s eyes, was not a bad guy who needed to rely on someone’s power. Since Representative Jo of Hyun Construction had raised her daughter so well, she had nothing to wish for as long as Tae Seo took good care of her.
“If you really have someone you love, bring her here right now. I’ll give my permission without a word. After I roll up my sleeves and overturn the engagement with Hyun Construction.”
“……”
Love. It was a word that didn’t fit him at all. But at the word “love,” Tae Seo momentarily thought of Yoon Jae In.
He’s interested, he looks her way. And his heart goes to her. That’s all. It’s only because the only person who has been like this in his life has been Yoon Jae In, and it’s still ridiculous to bring up the word “love.”
It is strange that his heart beats wildly when he thinks of Yoon Jae In, but it’s probably not the love that people rave about dying and living for. It’s just affection, just that much.
Moreover, there was only one example of love between a man and a woman that he knew. Considering how his mother’s love for his father ended, he couldn’t help but be skeptical about the word “love”.
“Do you want to see this old woman worry about you until the moment of her death?”
“Grandmother.”
“Don’t wish for anything else. I have no shame to ask anything from you. Just, as a grandmother, I must prepare a place for your heart to rest.”
Tae Seo kept his mouth shut and stepped back. It seemed that the breakup with Hyun Construction had to be postponed a bit. The grandmother was the priority.
As soon as he left the main house and got in the car, Tae Seo picked up his phone, which was called by Director Jang. It was a solo trip out, as Director Jang had temporarily left his seat in a hurry.
“Yes.”
Director, everything you asked for will arrive within ten minutes.
By now, things good for Madam Im Hong Jin’s body would have been piling up. What Tae Seo hurriedly prepared through an assistant as he headed home was cold noodles and dumplings from the cold noodle restaurant he had visited with Jae In last time.
She had been eating reluctantly, saying she had no appetite, so he wanted to take care of her with the only takeout menu she used to like.
“I understand. I’ll go back to the office now. Did you receive your dental treatment well?”
Yes, Director. Ah, but…..
The story that Director Jang hesitated to tell was unexpected.
It’s about the dentist on the ground floor of the yoga studio where Yoon Jae In works.
He seemed to have visited there, saying he was going to leave for a dental appointment. Tae Seo just listened to Director Jang saying that he was worried about Yoon Jae In and felt that he should get rid of the dentist.
“……Are you listening, Director?”
Director Jang thought that Tae Seo was nonchalant about the existence of Seokdong because he didn’t know the severity of the situation. So he thought Tae Seo would be angry when he relayed the situation he saw today.
But that wasn’t the case, was it? Wasn’t that much interest just about right? When Chief Jang was having such thoughts, Tae Seo’s laughterlaced voice came over the phone.
“Don’t worry about it. Yoon Jae In is not so foolish that she can’t solve that much on her own. I am quietly waiting for the smart Yoon Jae In to approach me fearlessly. So, Chief Jang, you just focus on the tasks assigned and report accordingly.”
“……You’re waiting?”
“Yes. Waiting is quite fun. These days, I wake up every morning with anticipation.”
It’s fun to wait when you’re sure something will come.
Chief Jang’s eyes widened for a moment as he remembered Jae In, who had been looking at me. He thought that the person who should be most worried now might be Yoon Jae In.
It wasn’t composure. Kang Tae Seo seemed to be demonstrating patience, preparing to pounce as soon as his target approached. Chief Jang thought of Tae Seo as a beast crouching and stalking its prey.
“I’ll arrive soon. See you in a bit.”
Chief Jang, imagining Tae Seo’s eyes, dangerously gleaming with anticipation and excitement, suddenly felt a chill and shivered.
“Is that child really in America?”
“……Why suddenly talk about that?”
Cho Dae Hoon put down his teacup as if he lost his taste for it. Seung Hee, after confirming her husband’s unpleasant expression, sipped her tea with a snicker.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
