It was a little disappointing, but she was worried too. She liked her sleep, and it took a long time to prepare. If she wanted to match Ha Joon’s timing, she thought she would have to get up even earlier.

So, was she going to do nothing but sleep again today?

((()))

In order to suppress his boiling desire, Ha Joon went to the auxiliary building’s gym and worked out lightly.

It had been a long time since he exercised in the evening like this, having gotten used to morning workouts. He thought he would have to keep doing this at this time, as he seemed to have to sleep with Seo Ah continuously.

When he took a shower and returned to his room, Seo Ah, who he thought would naturally be asleep, was sitting on the bed and jumped up.

“What are you doing up?”
“I was going to have this with you before we sleep.”
On the table that Seo Ah pointed to with her index finger, there were two teacups and a thermal pot with a different design from what he had seen earlier in the study.

Ha Joon sighed deeply inside, wondering what she would do if she got hurt again.

“Did you brush your teeth?”
“Uh… can’t we brush our teeth again after eating? This tea helps with sleep, no, no.”
Seo Ah spoke to herself and was startled, quickly shaking her head. It was because Seok Hoon told her not to show her feelings in front of Ha Joon.

“It’s a tea that helps relieve stress, so it’s good to drink before going to sleep.”
This was not a tea for insomnia, but a tea that helped relieve stress!

“I, I also have a lot on my mind because of exams these days, and I have been having restless sleep, and it seemed like Kang Ha Joon too.”
Restless sleep? That’s unlikely. He wouldn’t have known even if someone carried him away. Was she trying to say something in a roundabout way? If she was going to beat around the bush, she could at least do it convincingly.

“Don’t sympathize, clean up. If you’re going to drink, go out and drink, and turn off the lights.”
“It’s not sympathy, it’s worry! Just like when you treated my hand earlier, Kang Ha Joon.”
Ha Joon, who was heading towards the bed, stopped in his tracks.

“People make mistakes and get hurt in life, is that something to be ashamed of?”
Mistakes, pain, they were things that should never happen to Ha Joon.

“Our values are different. It was something I could never accept. And I admit the mistake, but not the pain, so turn off your unnecessary concern.”
“Why isn’t it pain? Difficulty breathing, that could have gone wrong!”
“Yeah, that was a mistake.”
How many times was he forced to admit his mistake,

“I couldn’t sleep, so I did this and that and made a mistake. It would be better if you found a way to sleep without alcohol or medicine.”
“It’s a waste of time. Taking medicine is the fastest. And if you want to become the owner of the group….”
Ha Joon stopped in the middle of his sentence. He didn’t understand why he was telling her this in detail. He didn’t like telling his story to others,

“Ha… Turn off the lights quickly.”
Ha Joon lay down on the bed, covered himself with a blanket, and closed his eyes.

Perhaps the concern he was receiving for the first time was burdensome and awkward for Ha Joon.

Because neither his family nor his helpers had ever shown interest in his insomnia.

There was an awkward silence for a moment, then the light was turned off.

And the bed mattress shook slightly. Seo Ah seemed to be climbing onto the bed. She was so light that it was hardly noticeable.

He was worried about whether he would be able to sleep safely tonight. The doctor had said it would be better to refrain from taking medicine for a while for his health,

Then, he heard Seo Ah’s soft, elegant voice.

“I bought a diffuser with a subtle scent on purpose. If you don’t like the smell, let me know. I’ll change it to something else.”
Her voice echoed more beautifully in the darkness.

“And, if you’re not going to do anything, it’s okay to sleep in the study or another room if you’re uncomfortable. If my mother says something again, I’ll handle it.”
She was babbling to herself, and it would have been nagging if someone else did it, but why was it so cute?

He wanted to see her. What she looked like, the expression she was making,

Even though he couldn’t see her in the dark, he unconsciously turned his body to the side to look at her and laid down staring at her silhouette.

Seo Ah, who he had expected to be lying back to back with him, was thankfully lying on her back, looking at the ceiling.

He thought Seo Ah was lying with her back towards him because she didn’t want to hear what he had to say and continued to speak, unfazed.

“Did you see the thermal pot in the library? If you can’t sleep, try drinking some. If it doesn’t help, well…”
Seo Ah couldn’t continue.

Suddenly, because Ha Joon pulled on her arm, she ended up in his large and solid embrace.

As a result, Seo Ah became stiff as a board. She was surprised by the sudden situation, and she felt breathless.

She couldn’t push him away because she didn’t have the courage to touch his solid body, and he wouldn’t be pushed away anyway.

She couldn’t turn around and go back the way she came. That’s because his solid arm was wrapping around her shoulder and back.

By the way, was what touching her head his arm? She didn’t expect to be using an arm as a pillow like this.

Immediately after, his deep and low voice could be heard.

“Stop fussing and sleep.”
A moment of awkward silence passed.

Thump thump thump thump!

Seo Ah, whose face was close to his heart, jolted at the sound of his intense heartbeat.

She thought he must be very angry because she kept talking and obediently closed her eyes.

When she was away from him, she talked a lot, but when she was close, she couldn’t do anything. She assumed he was taking advantage of this.

Although she didn’t like being always fooled by him, she couldn’t help her fluttering heart. This was a position that lovers take.

Even if they were to have sex to have a child, she thought they would do it out of obligation, and after their relationship, they would sleep separately as if nothing had happened.

She thought this would never happen, but now, Ha Joon was flustered that he had pulled her into him.

He had just acted as his body and mind wished.

He might have wanted to see her adorable side, the side that can’t do anything when close to him.

When she was a little away, she said everything, but why was she so quiet in his arms?

Every time she squirmed uncomfortably, his arm tightened without him realizing.

He couldn’t completely press his body against hers. If he did, he wouldn’t be able to control himself. The dangerous heat was already building at the threshold.

The gym had no effect at all.

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)

Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.

After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.

Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”

He fell ill.

She came to see him, bringing breakfast.

As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”

She turned around upon hearing the noise.

He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”

“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.

He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”

Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.

After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.

Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.

A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”

What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.

What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.

Love at first sight without realizing it, gradually falling in love, slowly getting closer…

Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!

A naturally dark female lead who could accidentally destroy the world but is actually an honest person VS a weak, pitiful, and helpless but skilled fighter, beautiful white-cut black male lead
