It was past 8 a.m. when Ina, who had fallen asleep as if she had fainted, woke up tossing and turning.
Even in the hazy consciousness, she could feel Juwon’s warm embrace around her.
Gently lifting her eyes, she saw Juwon’s face peacefully sleeping.
Ina softly removed Juwon’s arm, which was wrapped around her waist, and sat up.
She then looked closely at Juwon’s sleeping face.
Long eyelashes, a finely crafted nose that the Creator must have put a lot of effort into, and below it, sensually attractive sexy lips…
As Ina stared at those lips, she unconsciously swallowed her saliva.
Those lips had been marking her entire body with affection as if stamping it all night long.
The peculiar sensation of those attractive lips still seemed to linger on her body.
Although her body was sore from the relentless pursuit of love by Juwon throughout the night, it was still a night so happy that her heart could burst.
Juwon’s passionate gestures, relentlessly seeking love with a body drenched in sensuality.
Juwon’s enthusiastic face, looking down at herself with eyes that seemed to say, “You’re so cute I could die.”
It was a night where she could feel with her whole body how heartwarming it was to receive love from a man as a woman.
Smiling with a slight smile, Ina reached out and gently brushed Juwon’s front hair to the side.
Then, his handsome forehead came into view.
How could someone be so handsome even to the forehead… Who’s son could he be? He’s really too good.
The fact that this handsome man is my man… It made her chest swell with emotion.
Looking at Juwon, who had slept quietly for a long time, she couldn’t help but think that he looked like a prince.
“Really… There’s no sleeping prince in the forest. I should give him a kiss before anyone sees.”
Muttering to herself, Ina gently lowered her head and kissed Juwon’s lips.
And just as she was about to quietly get out of bed by putting down one leg,
“Where are you going?”
Juwon’s languid voice was heard as he suddenly grabbed Ina’s waist tightly.
“Jeez.”
Surprised, Ina let out a sound, and at the same time, Juwon embraced her waist tightly.
Then, looking down at Ina with eyes still not awake, he asked.
“Where do you think you’re going, leaving me alone?”
“Oh, when did you wake up?”
Surprised, Ina asked, and Juwon smiled, giving her a kiss on the lips.
“Calling me the sleeping prince of the forest? So you woke me up with a kiss, huh?”
“D-Did you hear that? Ahaha…”
Embarrassed, Ina awkwardly laughed as she spoke, and Juwon chuckled.
“If I’m the sleeping prince of the forest, are you Thumbelina?”
Blinking her eyes, Ina laughed as if saying, “What nonsense.”
“Where’s such a big Thumbelina? I’d suffocate under her.”
Then, Juwon laughed and kissed Ina’s nose.
“Why? To my eyes, you’re cuter than Thumbelina.”
Ina, feeling embarrassed, tapped Juwon’s chest and said, “You… seems like you got carried away too much.”
“Really? But what should we do? It seems like it will stay like this.”
When Ina tapped her chest again in frustration, Juwon laughed and held Ina’s hand.
“How’s your body? Are you okay?”
“I’ll be… fine, I guess.”
As Ina spoke with widened eyes, Juwon hugged her tightly and said, “I’m sorry. It must have been tough. But I couldn’t help myself because it felt so good. Next time, I’ll try to control myself better.”
Blushing at the term ‘control myself,’ Ina bit her lip slightly.
“Since we pushed ourselves too much last night, let’s rest deeply until lunch. Let’s eat something delicious.”
“Okay.”
As Ina responded, she nestled into Juwon’s warm embrace.
“If I embrace you like this… will I get tired again?”
“Hmm?”
When Ina raised her head and looked at Juwon, heat gathered in Juwon’s eyes.
Surprised, Ina quickly escaped from Juwon’s embrace and slid her legs down under the bed.
And the moment she got up abruptly, she sat back down as a massive pain rushed from her lower body.
Seeing this, Juwon, with surprised eyes, quickly got up.
“Why? Where does it hurt?”
Instead of answering, Ina pointed to her head, and Juwon hugged her from behind.
“Sorry. I think I pushed you too hard yesterday.”
“No, I’m fine.”
Although Ina smiled and spoke, there were traces of difficulty on her face.
Looking at Ina with an affectionate gaze, Juwon got off the bed.
Then, showing his wide back, he kneeled in front of Ina and sat.
“Come on, get on.”
“Hmm?”
When Ina asked with round eyes, Juwon tapped his back and said, “Because you suffered because of me last night, today I’ll do the talking.”
“Talking?”
“Yeah. Don’t walk today. I’ll keep carrying you.”
“What? I’m not that injured. Why are you suddenly treating me like a patient?”
While laughing, Ina hit Juwon’s back with her fist.
“I said to get on? It should be quite comfortable like a ride, you know?”
“What, like a car or something? Calling it a comfortable ride?”
“Because I said so? Your words.”
As Ina giggled, Juwon grabbed her hands and pulled them as he swiftly stood up.
As Ina was lifted onto Juwon’s back, Juwon held her hips and stood up straight.
“Huh, huh?”
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.”
