Fumbling around with a suitable response, Dajeong casually shifted her gaze.
“Me? Right, I’m very friendly. So, let’s meet often from now on.”
“…?”
Her head tilted slightly at the expression “let’s meet often.”
“Why? Is it strange?”
“A bit… Yes. Saying ‘let’s meet often’ endlessly, people usually don’t say that.”
Dajeong spoke cautiously with a wary expression.
Personalities vary from person to person, and there are various ways to become close. However, no matter what, his approach seemed somewhat strange.
Like a child, revealing himself too defenselessly.
“I don’t say let’s meet every day. Just sometimes when I’m worried?”
“Worried…?”
Subin nodded lightly and opened his mouth.
“Yeah. Not long ago, I was so, so worried about you, and I just wanted to see if you were okay, even if it’s just your face. But then I realized, I don’t even know your phone number.”
“Why were you worried about me?”
…”
Subin, who used to respond well to questions, closed his mouth for the first time. He averted his gaze for a moment and then casually spoke.
“Last week, on a rainy day, there was an accident at the airport. I saw it on the news, and you came to mind.”
“Ah…”
Come to think of it, there was a minor accident at Incheon Airport not long ago. Two planes on the ground collided with each other—the wings and tails touching during taxiing.
The same scene was repeatedly reported on the news, and Taesang received several phone calls related to it.
But it was a minor contact accident with no casualties. Dajeong looked up at him with a slightly mocking expression.
“The news said it was an empty plane that no one was on. Didn’t you see that?”
“Ah… Did it say that?”
Subin chuckled once and continued.
“Anyway, I wanted to see if you were okay that day. But I didn’t know your phone number.”
…”
Dajeong hesitated. The phone number was not really a big deal, and Subin was like a benefactor to her.
She could easily tell him.
But…
“Huh? That looks like a rejecting expression. Then I should die a little for this.”
“Die…?”
“If I hadn’t found you, you might have really gotten seriously hurt.”
He said with a slightly serious expression, shaking his head. Dajeong raised her voice with a somewhat unjust expression.
“T-That’s really going too far.”
“Well, then hurry up.”
At some point, Subin brought out his phone and said.
Dajeong sighed softly and accepted the phone. It wasn’t a thought she could understand, but if she wanted to repay the favor in this way, there was no choice but to go along with it.
However…
Again, Taesang’s face flashed before her eyes.
“…”
Unconsciously raising her right hand, Dajeong quickly switched hands.
Subin’s expression momentarily stiffened when she raised her left hand to receive the phone.
Under the bright light, a large, shining diamond. The ring that pressed heavily on her hand emphasized once again that this person was definitely not alone.
Dajeong raised the phone to shoulder height with a light smile. Each time she tapped the screen, the transparent light sparkled beautifully.
“Here you go.”
Subin accepted the phone with a bitter smile. They didn’t exchange a single word, but it felt like they had a sufficient conversation.
Don’t you already know? My heart is already tied to someone else.
⭐️⭐️⭐️
In the car heading to school, Taesang’s eyes were restless as he looked at the clock.
Documents that needed urgent approval, a meeting to attend. He had neatly finished all his schedules, but for some reason, he felt anxious.
He crossed his thighs hastily, gazing out of the window. Thoughts of Dajeong waiting for him made his heart race.
At that moment, Secretary Kim’s and Taesang’s phones rang simultaneously. In such cases, it usually meant something unfavorable.
Taesang quickly took out his phone from the jacket pocket.
It was a message from the secretary’s office. When he opened the link, the headline quickly caught his eye.
‘Aircraft contact accident thought to be a mere mistake, turns out to be a disaster? Testimony from an aviation industry official reveals the true face of Air Korea.’
The provocative title of the article discussed the accident that occurred due to Air Korea outsourcing excessive work to a subcontractor.
‘All aircraft are usually moved on the ground by tow trucks. Do you know that they usually assign this work to subcontractors? But the equipment is old, time is tight, in such a situation…….’
Starting with the interview, the article went on to talk about Air Korea’s ‘cutthroat subcontractor pricing.’
That wasn’t all. Towards the end of the article, it subtly mentioned the responsibility theory, linking the entire incident to Taesang’s assumption of office.
“Sigh…”
Without even checking the source, it was obvious.
Taesang pressed his temple and scrolled down.
As expected.
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.”
