But she didn’t explicitly mention the partner.
Instead, she seemed hesitant, as if gauging Kyle’s reaction.
“I’m sorry for writing your name without permission. It’s just for one couple, so the chances of winning are slim. Don’t worry. Really. But I thought you should know that I applied.”
Se-hee trailed off apologetically.
She knew Kyle tended to be sensitive.
He would probably scold her, wouldn’t he?
Would he just let it go?
Se-hee cautiously watched Kyle’s expression.
“Didn’t I give my permission for the name? We’re also planning to attend events together.”
Se-hee’s eyes widened like a startled rabbit.
Did that mean he was okay with it?
“Really? Is it okay? Even if we actually win?”
Se-hee was surprised by Kyle’s unexpected reaction.
Instead of answering, Kyle asked back.
“Would it be nice to win?”
“Honestly?”
“Honestly.”
“Yes.”
Se-hee’s cheeks flushed shyly as she answered.
“So, you applied with that tiny zero point zero zero zero one percent chance of hope? Without asking.”
Se-hee smiled sheepishly.
Kyle’s heart fluttered for a moment.
If he had known beforehand that he was the partner, maybe he would have accepted Captain Marcus’ suggestion.
“I’ll wish you luck.”
“Really?”
Se-hee asked, surprised by Kyle’s words.
“Yes. I’ll wish very strongly.”
“It may just be a feeling, but when Kyle says it, it somehow feels really good? Like that time when I was trapped in the hatch, I felt really reassured by your words, saying that you would protect me no matter what.”
Se-hee’s sincere eyes were fixed on Kyle.
“Even though we hardly knew each other back then, your voice and those eyes of yours gave me a sense of trust. Thank you for being with me like this.”
Se-hee’s voice wavered with emotion.
She hurriedly bowed her head and fiddled with her eyes.
“I’m not crying, okay? Absolutely not. So don’t misunderstand. Really. My eyes are just sensitive. They get red like this even if a little dry…”
Se-hee’s words sped up as she spoke.
Suddenly, a fine handkerchief appeared before Se-hee’s eyes, imbued with Kyle’s refreshing scent.
“You know when you lie, it shows, right?”
“Is it that obvious?”
Se-hee cautiously accepted the handkerchief.
“Seriously.”
“Then just pretend you don’t know. Please.”
Se-hee retorted cheekily, causing Kyle to burst into laughter.
“Will you come to the midnight event with me? Oh, right, now we have to go together, don’t we?”
Se-hee smiled brightly.
“If you wish to attend, I’ll gladly join.”
Kyle’s voice sounded exceptionally pleasant, perhaps due to the mood.
“There will be a drawing announcement at the midnight event.”
“Is that so.”
Kyle replied, looking at Se-hee intently, his gaze filled with emotions very different from when they first met.
Perhaps Kyle himself had already noticed this change.
Returning to her room to prepare for the midnight event, Se-hee encountered a crew member who seemed to have been waiting for some time.
With a familiar face and carrying even larger boxes than before.
“Ah, Miss. I’ve been waiting because there was no response to the doorbell.”
The crew member brightened upon seeing Se-hee.
“Is there a reason for your visit? Have you been waiting long?”
“No, I came to deliver these.”
“What are these?”
“They’re special event gifts from the captain for female passengers traveling alone.”
“From the captain?”
Se-hee looked puzzled at the crew member.
“Let me bring them inside.”
“Ah… yes, thank you. But are these really for me?”
“Yes, they are gifts for Miss Se-hee in room 1305.”
Se-hee tilted her head in confusion, not recalling such an event.
Accepting them somewhat bewilderedly, she opened the top box.
My goodness.
It was the dress she had wanted but hadn’t bought from the luxury brand store on the fifth floor.
The other dresses in the boxes were also the ones recommended at the store.
Could this be possible?
Was it special attention because she was traveling alone?
Should she consider it a special service?
Perhaps it was part of the famous Evans’s extraordinary service.
The group was renowned in the hotel industry for setting unmatched standards.
Se-hee, though slightly overwhelmed, decided to accept them as she needed a dress for the party.
She took out the dress she had really wanted.
A happy smile spread across Se-hee’s face.
After preparing for the midnight event, Kyle also headed to his room for a brief time before meeting Se-hee again.
But there, with an uneasy expression, stood Captain Marcus, waiting for Kyle.
Kyle’s steps slowed down.
“Mr. President.”
After much deliberation, Captain Marcus, with a troubled face, had come to see Kyle again.
“Let’s go to the office.”
“What?”
Expecting an immediate rejection, the captain harbored a glimmer of hope at Kyle’s response.
“Is the President here?”
Dave rose from his seat upon seeing Kyle and then shook his head in pity as he saw Marcus following behind.
“Tell me what it is. What brings you here again?”
Kyle motioned for Marcus to take a seat and sat down himself.
“Mr. President, it’s about the wedding event I mentioned earlier.”
Marcus spoke with a grave expression, knowing the announcement of the event’s winner was imminent and considering this his last chance.
“I know it’s against the rules. But could you please make an exception just this once?”
Marcus’s pleading gaze was so earnest it even twisted Dave’s expression with sympathy.
“Alright.”
Kyle finally responded after a long sigh, seemingly granting permission reluctantly.
“What?”
Marcus’s eyes widened in surprise, echoed by Dave’s gaping mouth.
“I’ve never permitted anything that compromises fairness. But for this time only, I will accept Captain Marcus’s proposal.”
“Mr. President!”
Marcus called out to Kyle, almost overwhelmed with emotion.
“Since Captain Marcus and all the crew are so earnestly wishing for this, I will permit it this one time, and this time only.”
Kyle stated his position firmly, indicating there would be no second time.
“Thank you, thank you, Mr. President. Of course, it’s the last time. Such a thing will never happen again.”
Marcus, unable to contain his emotions, pressed his hand against his pounding heart.
“I will take responsibility for persuading the partner, Mr. President.”
Marcus spoke with a choked voice.
Kyle, pretending to be unaware, asked nonchalantly.
“Who is the partner?”
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
