“Do you say it’s nothing because you think I’ll care if you say there is something?”
“Yes. Because you’d still care.”
“You got me right.”
“So are you going to call this an instinct too? An instinct you can’t resist to help?”
A slight nod. Tae Sang’s head went down.
“Even when you don’t know what’s going on?”
“There’s no need to know.”
“…….”
It was absurd, but it was a compelling response.
He was not just anyone, he was the successor of Hyoseong, who controls South Korea. If he stepped in, the orphanage problem would be solved in no time.
Her heart leaned towards the sweet suggestion that sounded too good to be true. As if he had read her mind, the car smoothly turned a corner.
The golden streetlight shimmered in the car, following the flexible movement. DaJeong stared at the fading yellow light, then opened her mouth.
“I appreciate your words, but I can’t accept your help.”
“Why…?”
“Because I can’t help you if you’re in trouble, Vice President.”
“Is that so.”
It seemed like an acknowledgement, but his gaze said otherwise. His sharp eyes seemed ready to force ‘help’ into her hands at all costs.
Her eyelids trembled under his intense gaze. DaJeong steeled her trembling eyes and looked at TaeSang.
“But what I said earlier was sincere. ‘I appreciate your words.'”
“Words are just words.”
“No, they’re not just words.”
“……”
TaeSang silently stared at DaJeong, as if asking for an explanation.
“So… what I mean is… I’ve been really busy lately…? But no one even bothered to ask me first. Nobody asked ‘Are you okay these days? Is there anything I can help with?’ Even empty words would have been nice.”
For the past few days, all she heard was ‘don’t do it, sorry.’ Even being asked why she bothered to call and upset them.

No one asked if she was okay, but that was fine. Because she took it upon herself, because as long as she could protect the orphanage, that would be enough.
But a casual comment from the man shook her heart.
It wasn’t okay. No, it couldn’t have been okay.
When her shallow selfhypnosis broke, the pain she had been suppressing slowly came back. She forced a smile while her eyes filled with bitterness, and he met her gaze.
“You must be tired.”
“……Yes.”
DaJeong nodded as if she were hypnotized. She remembered not being able to sleep more than four hours yesterday, or the day before.
“We have a long way to go before we arrive. Close your eyes.”
“But that’s a bit……”
“No one is watching. I won’t look either.”
“……”
As if to prove it, he turned his gaze out of the window as soon as he finished speaking.
“Uhm……”
She felt heavy, as if she had sunk deep underwater. Her throat was sore, and when she moved her head, she felt something hard supporting it.
‘What… is it?’
It was a hardness that one might feel from a piece of iron. Even in her hazy consciousness, she quickly realized it was not a pillow.
At the same time as the thought that it was strange brushed past, the sensations of the body gradually returned.
The light filtering over the closed eyelids. The shoes that tightly gripped the swollen calves.

Wishing that the bus would go a bit faster, she tried to sleep again, but a faint woody scent tickled her nose. The light and dry scent was strangely familiar for some reason.
Where she had smelled it before, whose scent it was. The memory was relentlessly stirred in the hazy consciousness. For a moment, consciousness flared up and returned, as if she had turned on the light in the room.
Walking out of the airport with difficulty, the black sedan that had been waiting for her. And the Vice President Cha Tae Sang, whom she met again in the car.
Among the scenes that passed like a panorama, the last was herself, insisting that she was not very sleepy.
‘I woke up talking to the Vice President.’
‘I feel like I won’t wake up if I sleep now.’
She had completely passed out, so much so that her forced lie seemed meaningless. It felt like she had fallen asleep on his shoulder, her temples were numb.
‘Ah.’
How tired she must have been to sleep on such hard and stubby bones. Even though her mind was full of the thought that she should wake up soon, a brief impression brushed past her mind.
Da Jeong slowly lifted her eyelids, subtly observing.
Everything was as it was before she fell asleep.
The quiet, separated back seat, the faint air conditioning wind. The only thing different was that the car was no longer moving.

If she suddenly raised her head, it would be strange.
Rolling her pupils once, Da Jeong slowly tilted her head forward. She bent deeply forward once and was about to naturally rise, when a large hand came into her sight.
‘…Huh!’
Startled, Da Jeong inhaled sharply and closed her eyes tightly. It wasn’t as if anything would change by closing her eyes, but for some reason, she felt like she had to.
Just when she thought it would be dark for a moment, a warm feeling touched her forehead. It seemed to be his long, solid finger.
While spreading his palm and circling her forehead, he slanted his shoulder at the same time. It was an incredibly slow and careful movement.
Da Jeong could rest her head comfortably between his shoulder and neck. His muscles were so firm that it still hurt a bit, but it was nothing compared to the rockhard bones.
‘If I stay like this……’
He was a man who was a head taller than me. There was no way his back wouldn’t hurt when he was bent over like a bow. And since she had been resting on it all night, his shoulder would be very sore.
For no reason, Da Jeong pretended to wake up, making a ‘Mmm…’ sound. Moving her head and gently opening her eyes, a wristwatch just came into view.
“….?”
Her mind had returned a while ago, and her vision was clear. However, for some reason, the hand of the watch was strange. Da Jeong, who was staring at her wrist, suddenly raised her head like a spring.

The entire internet was in an uproar.

“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
①Male pregnancy (highlighted)
