Jae In blamed herself silently, regretting that she hadn’t actively stopped Do Hyuk back then.
Whether Do Hyuk knew or not that she was suffering because of him, he only looked straight ahead without a care.
If there was a glimmer of hope for Jae In in this moment, it was the sight of Seoul City Hall Station in the distance.
“If I endure for just 10 more minutes, I can get off! Time, hurry up! Please go faster!”
Jae In muttered an impossible request while staring out the window.
A threestory building with a classy wooden interior came into view.
“Oh! It’s ‘Bake Moon’!”
Jae In exclaimed joyfully, pressing herself against the window.
Perhaps it piqued his interest, as Do Hyuk asked his first question since getting in the car.
“What’s that?”

“It’s a bakery owned by Moon Kwangil, a pastry master I truly admire. Their Mont Blanc and tarts are the best in the country. You feel instantly happy with just one bite.”
“Have you been here often?”
“Yes. Whenever I felt exhausted from leaving home and standing on my own, I would come here and find comfort. I also made a promise to myself that one day, I’ll have a wonderful bakery like this. But lately, I’ve been too busy and couldn’t come.”
Jae In’s expression was somewhat serious.
“The truth is, it’s where the famous pastry master Moon Kwangil came from, so I decided to go to a Japanese pastry and baking school. He’s my role model.”
“I see.”
In the meantime, ‘Bake Moon’ had become quite distant, but the dazzling desserts they briefly encountered floated before Jae In’s eyes.
Her heart pounded as if she had already seen her dream store.
“When did Seo Jae In start dreaming of becoming a pastry chef?”
“Since the third grade of elementary school. My mom and dad have been running a small pastry shop in Hwasun for over 30 years, and the way they made bread looked really cool to me.”

“So early?”
“Even though they told me to study and scolded me, whenever I had the chance, I helped them make bread. It was more of a nuisance than anything, but I was just getting in the way.”
“Was that job really fun?”
“Of course! When you press the fermented dough, it makes a ‘poof’ sound as the air escapes. Even now, when I hear that sound, all my stress disappears.”
Jae In playfully laughed, moving her hands as if she were kneading real bread.
Do Hyuk, who glanced at her, raised the corners of his mouth.
“It’s so effective? I want to try it sometime.”
“You, Team Leader?”
The person who doesn’t lift a finger in the kitchen suddenly wants to try kneading bread? Now?
In an instant, Jae In pictured Do Hyuk wearing a white baker’s uniform and a large baker’s hat.

For some reason, he seemed sexy and overflowing with charisma, even in her imagination, it caught her off guard.
“Why does he look cool no matter what he wears? Even if he wears an apron, it would still be high fashion,” she thought.
Do Hyuk subtly asked Jae In, who stared at him with a fascinated gaze.
“Seo Jae In, after you graduate… what are you planning to do in two years?”
“What else? I have to work in Japan for a few years and build up my skills.”
“For how many years?”
“Yes. That’s why I really worked hard to study Japanese. Who knows, maybe I’ll meet a wonderful man in Japan and even get married, you know?”
“…”
Do Hyuk didn’t react to Jae In’s joke about getting married.
Just give me a little smile.

Feeling a bit relieved, Jae In glanced at Do Hyuk for a moment and flinched.
A dark shadow cast over his face, his jugular veins visibly swollen.
In short, Do Hyuk was emitting an aura that said, “Don’t mess with me.”
“Why is he acting like this? Did I make a mistake or something?”
No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t figure it out.
“Um… Team Leader, are you okay?”
That’s when it happened.
Screech.
Do Hyuk suddenly turned the steering wheel and parked the car on the side of the road.
Then, after hesitating for a moment, he slowly opened his mouth.

“Seo Jae In…”
“What is it?”
Do Hyuk couldn’t easily continue his sentence.
A suffocating tension filled the car.
Jae In swallowed her dry saliva while watching Do Hyuk’s reactions.
“Team Leader, what on earth are you trying to say?”
Rrrrrrr.
Rrrrrrr.
In that moment, a cheerful ringtone filled the car.
“Don’t answer it.”

Do Hyuk said with a stern expression.
Finally, Jae In rummaged through her bag pocket and took out her cell phone.
It was Yura.
“Oh, Yura.”
Jae In, where are you?
“Ah, I entered Gwanghwamun, so I’ll be there soon.”
Really? Since it’s lunchtime, there might be a lot of people, so I’ll go ahead and secure a seat. It’s on the second floor of the building across from Gwanghwamun Green Bookstore, called ‘Sevilla.’
“On the second floor across from Gwanghwamun Green Bookstore, Sevilla. Got it. I’ll be there soon.”
After Jae In finished the call, the car slowly started moving.
Do Hyuk still stared silently ahead without saying a word.

“Seo Jae In…”
What was he trying to say?

Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“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.]
