After a flight of about two hours, Hee-wook and Hyun-ji arrived in Tokyo, Japan. Immediately upon arrival, following Tae-joon’s request, they met with a headhunter and prospective recruit for K Electronics.
Hyun-ji was a talented individual fluent not only in English but also in Japanese. Although Hee-wook was her senior in terms of legal experience, he learned a lot from her. He was proud to have a smart and beautiful woman like Hyun-ji liking him.
However, he couldn’t stop thinking about So-eun. He couldn’t forget the way she had insisted on revealing her surgery to Hyun-ji. He felt guilty about having snapped at So-eun before leaving for the business trip.
How can I break up with her if she gets this upset over such a small thing?
“Aren’t you going to enjoy this rare overseas trip?”
Hyun-ji grumbled when Hee-wook kept frowning even after they arrived at the hotel.
Hee-wook and Hyun-ji were staying in a hotel booked by Tae-joon, with adjoining rooms. Hyun-ji came over to Hee-wook’s room after dropping off her luggage.
She was looking forward to having fun on this unusual opportunity, but seeing Hee-wook not paying attention and just brooding made her feel sulky too.
“Forget about Han So-eun. How can you think of her when I’m right here?”
Unable to bear it, Hyun-ji chided him, which finally brought Hee-wook to his senses, and he made a move towards her. Although Hyun-ji easily accepted his kiss, she pushed him away when his hands became too eager.
“No, this isn’t right.”
“Hmm…?”
“The one thing I despise most is two-timing, Oppa.”
“…”
“Be clear about it. Break up and come back to me. Then I’ll welcome you.”
Hyun-ji’s gaze sharpened. It was a shrewd warning that she wouldn’t allow herself to be taken advantage of. Hee-wook had to back off, knowing Hyun-ji was a strong lawyer who wouldn’t easily give in. He had feelings for her but knew he had to be cautious.
Disheartened and feeling sorry for himself, Hee-wook moved to the other side of the bed and pressed his forehead. Hyun-ji laughed at his gloomy appearance.
“Oppa, you look cute when you’re down.”
“What?”
“The more I see you, the cuter you get. Hehe.”
Hyun-ji moved closer, hugging Hee-wook’s head and laughing joyfully. Her chest pressed against his head.
She’s a fox, Choi Hyun-ji.
Choi Hyun-ji was indeed a woman who couldn’t be compared to the naive Han So-eun. She knew how to handle men well.
Hyun-ji then pushed Hee-wook’s head back and asked.
“You’re going to clear things up when you return to Korea, right? I don’t want to see Han So-eun anymore.”
I prefer Han So-eun’s figure, but Hyun-ji’s charm is tempting.
Hee-wook hesitated to respond, still harboring lingering feelings.
But thinking of the future, it was better to settle things as soon as possible.
But what if So-eun demands alimony? What if she threatens to expose everything at the company?
“You still undecided, Oppa?”
“It’s not that. What’s there to think about? I’ve been over Han So-eun for a long time.”
“Then what’s the problem? Tell me everything.”
“Well, it’s about my mother…”
“Yes? What about her?”
“…Never mind. It’s nothing.”
“Why? Why is it nothing? You were about to say something.”
I received a liver transplant from Han So-eun. She donated her liver to my mother.
He wanted to confess, but the words wouldn’t come out.
“…My mother likes you more than So-eun.”
“Really? I knew it.”
Hyun-ji smiled contentedly.
“My Oppa is too good for Han So-eun.”
“…”
“Break up with her quickly. Let’s become a lawyer couple. Okay? My mother will be happier and recover faster when she sees a daughter-in-law she approves of.”
A lawyer couple. A daughter-in-law approved by his mother.
Hyun-ji’s sweet words were enough to enthrall Hee-wook with just the thought.
[Star Icon]The next morning.
So-eun visited the hospital where Mal-hee was admitted. Although she had argued with Hee-wook and hadn’t contacted him since, a promise was a promise. She couldn’t ignore Lady Mal-hee Kim, who needed her help.
To assert my rights, I must give my
When So-eun entered the hospital room, she was reunited with Hee-wook’s sister, Hee-jin. Since she was in a cold war with Hee-wook, So-eun had not been informed beforehand of Hee-jin’s visit to the hospital. So-eun greeted her awkwardly.
“Hello, sister-in-law.”
“Hi.”
Hee-jin responded indifferently. Next to her was an unfamiliar boy who looked very smart.
“Hyung-woo, say hello.”
“Hello.”
At Hee-jin’s prompting, the boy nodded and greeted her. It was So-eun’s first time meeting Hee-jin’s son. She also greeted him warmly.
“You must be Hyung-woo? I’ve heard a lot about you. Nice to meet you.”
Smiling, So-eun took out some chocolates from her bag and asked Hee-jin.
“Is it okay if I give Hyung-woo some chocolates?”
She had brought the chocolates, anticipating she might skip lunch while taking care of Mal-hee.
“Sure.”
Hee-jin answered in a somewhat gruff voice, still seemingly uncomfortable around So-eun. So-eun handed the chocolates to Hyung-woo.
“Here, Hyung-woo, a gift for you.”
“Thank you.”

One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
