“Since it’s embarrassing, please use this…”
Seeing the blindfold that Seoa handed over while squirming, Hajun’s face became flushed.
When did she hide something like this? Was it planned with friends, perhaps? He had many questions, but to maintain the mood, he willingly put on the blindfold.
Hajun thought this might be better. Watching her continuously might make it difficult to control the boiling desire within him.
However, doing nothing, Seoa, made Hajun’s heart pound like crazy.
Unable to predict what she would do, the anticipation grew like an inflating balloon, ready to burst.
At that moment, her hair tickled his chest. Was she bowing her head?
Whether she was acting slowly or if he was anxious, he didn’t know.
As her hair touched a broader area on his neck, the soft sensation sent shivers throughout his body.
He could endure this feeling since he had occasionally felt it when she buried her face in his neck.
But as the warm breath began to gently stir, Hajun involuntarily clenched his fists.
Then, a faint sigh escaped as her breath, warm and humid, started to dance.
Hajun, experiencing such feelings for the first time, couldn’t help but react sensitively. Everything with Seoa was a first for him.
Afterward, Seoa, gaining confidence or becoming more persistent, accelerated her movements.
As her movements intensified, Hajun’s mind became increasingly dizzy. Expecting her to stimulate him awkwardly, he thought she might shyly seek refuge in his embrace.
Yet, she was so adorable that he wanted to love everything about her immediately. However, more than anything, he worried about her difficulties. The joy of being loved by her was so great that he couldn’t act in this situation.

Seoa was currently in a state of intoxication, as if her spirits had been lifted.
Although she had a drink before Hajun arrived, it had been a long time, and she was almost sober, but it seemed like she was carried away by the atmosphere.
A strong person who seemed like not a drop of blood would come out even if pricked with a needle. What did I do that made her sigh so ecstatically just because my breath, which wasn’t perfect, touched her a bit? It felt strange, and her confidence grew.
Certainly, because he was wearing the blindfold, she felt more courageous, not being seen.
But unable to endure any longer, Hajun, raising his upper body, removed the blindfold and pulled her into his arms.
“I told you not to move…”
When Seoa, looking away with embarrassment, spoke, Hajun’s eyes violently flickered.
The sight of her feeling embarrassed after doing everything was so lovely that he felt like he might go crazy.
“You’re so adorable. How can I stay still? It was challenging to endure.”
With his affectionate and tender voice, he unintentionally drew Seoa’s gaze, but as soon as she met his approaching gaze, she averted her eyes again.
“…But we can’t. Lie down quickly. And the blindfold again…”
Seoa’s trailing words were sucked into Hajun’s mouth.
Her eyelashes trembled at his hot and rough breath that instantly invaded her space.
Unable to resist his desperate appearance, Seoa, who couldn’t help but find it pleasing, wrapped her arms around his neck.
Without specifying who, they both delved deeper into each other’s embrace.
Since Seoa had always clung to Hajun’s embrace, both of them felt a different sensation.
Gradually, with a trembling body seeking comfort, Hajun whispered into her ear.
“I love you.”
At the weighty and serious tone of his voice, Seoa’s eyes widened.
It was the first time. The first time he told her that he loved her. It was something he hadn’t done yet. She didn’t expect him to say it first…
Wondering if she misheard, she raised her face buried in his neck to meet his eyes.
Then, Hajun once again lightly brushed her lips.
“I love you, Seoa.”
In an instant, Seoa’s clear eyes became moist.
What did it mean to say ‘I love you’? He had told her countless times before that he liked her, loved her, but it felt completely different.
Now that Hajun had mustered up considerable courage, he was perplexed by her lack of reaction.
Did I hear it correctly? Should I say it again? Was it too abrupt? How do couples usually convey their love?
Admiring her efforts for him, he wanted to love her even more, but the frustrating reality of being unable to do so made him feel grateful and sorry. That difficult-to-express gratitude and apology turned into difficult words that he reluctantly uttered.
At that moment, clear drops welled up in her eyes.
Simultaneously, she spoke.
“I love you too.”
Hajun’s pupils lightly flickered.
“Why are you crying…”
“Because I’m so happy. Thanks to you, I think I’ve found a reason to cry out of happiness.”
As Seoa, with teary eyes, smiled, Hajun gently showered her face with kisses.
“I’ll make you happier from now on. I’ll say I love you more.”
The lips of the two met again.
And so, the night unfolded, unforgettable for a lifetime.

At that moment, Jongwon headed to the DK Hotel for a gathering with friends.
“What happened to the perpetrator?”
After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.

After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
