It took only 15 minutes by car from Yura’s house to the house where Jae In used to live.
Jae In called Yura, humming with excitement.
As soon as the bell rang, a sullen voice came through.
“What’s up?”
“Yura, I have a favor to ask…”
“What is it?”
“I’m sorry, but could you go to the rooftop room where I used to live and pick up a package for me? I don’t have a car, and I’m too busy right now…”
“Jae In, I just took a shower.”
Oh no, I’m a step behind.
Yura had a strict rule of never going out after taking a shower, no matter how much anyone begged.
Jae In squeezed her voice as pitifully as possible.
“I’m sorry for asking this. My mom sent me side dishes, but I can’t go there. I’ll owe you big time and I’ll make it up to you next time, just this one favor, okay?”
“….”
“Hey… Yura?”
At that moment when Jae In was feeling desperate, Yura unexpectedly replied.
“Sure.”
“Really? As expected, Choi Yura, you’re the only one for me!”
“But there’s one condition.”
Condition?
Jae In’s body involuntarily flinched at Yura’s unsettling voice.
In a residential alley, there was a determined woman climbing up a dimly lit staircase untouched by streetlamp light.
It was Yura, wearing thick pants and a bulky jacket that reached below her knees.
“Ouch, it’s cold! It’s been ten years since I showered and came out. Seo Jae In, I’ll demand a proper payment.”
Yura grumbled while stubbornly zipping up her jacket, but there was a meaningful smile on her lips.
It was about the condition Yura mentioned earlier.
“I have to receive that payment at Team Leader Cha’s house.”
Jae In, who had built an iron wall strong enough to deflect a cannonball.
Could I activate my strong curiosity to see firsthand what it’s like to live with a man?
Of course, Jae In was in a panic and absolutely opposed to it.
When Yura tried to convince her by saying, “What if the food goes bad or someone else in that house eats it?” Jae In persisted that she would go and find it herself tomorrow, no matter what.
However…
“Jae In, think calmly. Can you guarantee that you won’t be busy tomorrow? Living with Workaholic Team Leader Cha?”
When Yura delivered the decisive blow with a snort, Jae In immediately dropped her shoulders.
“Choi Yura, it’s only for one hour on a day when the team leader isn’t there.”
“Oh yeah! Finally, I get to see the penthouse I’ve only heard about. While I’m at it, I’ll also find out what’s going on between Team Leader Cha and Jae In.”
Yura hummed a tune as she climbed up to the rooftop.
The light streaming through the attic window illuminated the rooftop brightly.
The rooftop was even tidier and more organized than when Jae In lived there.
“I don’t know who it is, but they must be a really neat person.”
Yura, who had been looking around, noticed a white Styrofoam cooler box placed next to the entrance of the rooftop.
“Ah, I guess this is what Jae In was talking about!”
Upon checking the invoice attached to the cooler box, it was indeed meant for Jae In.
Mission accomplished!
Now all she had to do was take it back and return it to the owner, but…
Somehow, it bothered her to just carry it with her.
“What if someone sees me and thinks I’m stealing? Won’t I be misunderstood as a thief for no reason?”
It seemed better to talk to the person living in the rooftop room before leaving.
Yura reluctantly knocked on the entrance.
Knock, knock.
“Excuse me. Is anyone there?”
There was no response.
No matter how many times she called, it was the same.
“The lights are on… Where could they have gone?”
As she hesitated on what to do, a sudden gust of wind blew, causing Yura to shiver all over.
She couldn’t just wait outside on this cold day, and it was bothersome to come back tomorrow just to pick it up if she decided to take it with her.
“Ah, I can leave a note!”
Yura rummaged through her bag to find something she could use.
Luckily, she found a pen and a receipt paper.
Yura stood in front of the glass door and wrote on the back of the receipt.
A moment later.
Yura inserted the note she had finished with a heartwarming message into the crack of the door.
Now, Yura felt relieved as she hugged the cooler box tightly for a moment.
Click!
Just when she thought she heard the sound of the door opening from inside, a sharp shout followed soon after.
“Who’s there?”
“…!”
Startled, Yura stumbled back in surprise.
Crash!
The door opened.
And through the crack, a man, resembling a Greek statue, with a towel wrapped around his waist, revealed himself.
The man, upon seeing Yura, screamed in terror.
“Who are you?”
“Ah! SSorry!”
Taken aback, Yura screamed and turned around.
“Let’s just run for now!”
However…
Although her mind wanted to run away, her trembling legs wouldn’t listen.
To make matters worse, due to the weight of the heavy cooler box, Yura stumbled on the icy rooftop floor and slipped.
“Uh, uh…!”
Thud!
Thump!
The sound of the cooler box breaking cut through the heavy night air.
At the sound, Yura’s senses snapped back to reality.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
