Youngmi, who belatedly noticed Dajeong’s hybrid fashion, raised her voice in surprise. She swiftly scanned Dajeong, pushing up her large glasses.
“Eh? So, this is….”
Dajeong fumbled for words, only managing to fiddle with the ends of her hair.
She couldn’t enter the house last night because you were having a good time with your boyfriend, and as a result, she slept at the vice president’s house.
Such a story would be too shocking to tell, and even if she did, it would be unbelievable.
She was hesitating about what to say when a refreshing notification sound came from her bag. Could it be a reply from Tae Sang?
She had decided not to pay attention, but her tactless eyes slowly moved to the side.
“Did something happen on the flight?”
“Well…. Just a moment.”
Dajeong quickly muttered and reached for her bag. Her hand opening the zipper was full of urgency.
「Good job.」
“Chi, what the….”
A deflated sound flowed from Dajeong’s mouth after checking the message. Tae Sang’s reply was clearly a message sent by him.
I also did a good job at the meeting.

Or,
Then rest well.
Was I foolish for expecting a sincere reply? Her lower lip stuck out at his indifferent reply. But then again, it seemed like a very masculine response.
Dajeong stared at her phone screen and held back a laugh. The short and coldlooking text felt quite endearing.
“Eh, what? What’s with that?”
Youngmi, who had been quietly watching Dajeong, suddenly stood up and spoke.
“Huh? What’s what?”
“Just now, those eyes, they’re clearly loveydovey!”
Youngmi pointed into the air with her chopsticks and approached threateningly. Dajeong, confronted by her towering 170cm height and large eyes, unknowingly took a step back.
“No way! What are you talking about? I was just… I was just laughing because it was funny.”
“You’re funny. Hey, sit down.”
Youngmi pointed to the chair across from her with her chopsticks. Dajeong moved her steps silently, without a sound.
Youngmi, with her fiery temper, was the type to see things through once she was interested. It’s best to quietly follow her lead in times like this.
As soon as she sat down in the chair she was slowly pulling, Youngmi threw a question at her.
“It’s a man.”
“Yes.”
“Crushing?”
“No.”
“Then? Checking him out?”
“No, not that. Not a crush, not checking out, just… just a helpless person.”
Youngmi, adjusting the headband on her head once more, sent a sharp look.

“That smile, that look. Those don’t come from ‘just a helpless person.'”
“Where would such a thing… we’re really nothing. No, it’s not even possible for us to be anything.”
“What does it mean by an impossible relationship?”
Yeongmi frowned, tilting her head in confusion.
“Well, that is… anyway, such a thing is impossible. An impossible relationship,” DaJeong waved her hands quickly from side to side.
One doesn’t become a resident of a world just by setting foot in it overnight. She was neither naive nor idle enough to fall for such frivolous delusions.
DaJeong looked at Yeongmi with an expression that said it’s nonsense. A wave of inexplicable bitterness rushed over her as she thought it was genuinely a frivolous tale.
DaJeong poured a full cup of water and gulped it down. A bitter taste kept lingering in her mouth.
“Hey, if you differentiate between possible and impossible relationships, when are you going to date? Huh?”
“When the time comes, I will…”
Her voice grew fainter amidst the renewed wave of fierce worry.
Looking after her younger sibling, constantly in and out of the orphanage. Whether financially or timewise, dating was a tale from a faroff land to DaJeong.
Yeongmi was both sympathetic and annoyed at her friend’s situation. She wished her friend would also receive love, not just give it. That was the only wish of her friend and colleague.
“If the time doesn’t come, should I create it for you? If the man who texted you isn’t special, I’ll set you up on a blind date. There’s a line of people asking to introduce you to Mr. Dohoon at his company.”
“No, I’m okay.”
“Why are you okay?”
“I’m busy. Because of the orphanage…”
The mention of the orphanage caused DaJeong’s complexion to become overcast. The fact that the family at the orphanage could be thrown out onto the street hadn’t changed, even though she had momentarily forgotten it.

“Should I go with you to the orphanage this weekend? There aren’t many volunteers these days.”
“Ah, no, I’m okay. A lot of university students come.”
“Really?”
“Yes. Really. For real.”
She didn’t want to burden her, who had already given a lot of help through donations and volunteering, with the issue of eviction.
DaJeong nodded rapidly, forcing a bright expression.
“Let’s eat quickly. The food is getting cold.”
The cooling food was the perfect excuse to change the subject.
As the sky was getting dark, DaJeong stretched lazily. It had been a while since she felt so clearheaded and light, the feeling of having had a deep sleep.
When she groped for her phone to check the time, sure enough, half the day had already passed.
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.
