Seemingly understanding Yeonwoo’s feelings, Geon spoke.
“Do you want it?”
“Yes. It would be like a wish come true if I had a horse like this…”
“If you want, I can give it to you.”
“Really?!”
Surprised, Yeonwoo’s eyes widened.
“But I don’t even know how to ride a horse…”
“I’ll teach you how to ride.”
“R-really?”
Yeonwoo was suspicious of Geon’s sudden excessive kindness.
However, in front of this beautiful white horse, Yeonwoo’s suspicion quickly vanished.
The next words that followed explained why Geon was so kind to Yeonwoo.
“But, under certain conditions, if you let me meet your sister.”
“….”
Didn’t they say there’s no such thing as a free lunch? Somehow, it seemed like Geon was being too generous.
“No way!”
“It can’t be helped. I can only send it back.”
“No, why send back such a beautiful and healthy horse?”
“Then will you let me meet your sister?”
“Absolutely not.”
Yeonwoo, who was momentarily swayed by temptation, quickly regained his composure and firmly declared his position.
He almost succumbed to the temptation, realizing that Geon was truly a dangerous person.
Was I really about to fall for just a horse?
Yet, it wasn’t just any horse; it was incredibly beautiful.
In the end, Geon decided to take the horse away.
“He really took it away…”
Alone at home, Yeonwoo turned his back at the front gate to dispel any lingering regrets. However, his heart was still with the white horse.
“That white horse was really beautiful. The most beautiful horse I’ve ever seen.”
Just imagining riding the white horse to and from work made Yeonwoo feel ecstatic.
Even without Geon’s offer, he might not have desired it so much.
Despite the risk of revealing his identity and the impossibility of exchanging the horse, Yeonwoo couldn’t help but feel disappointed.
“I really wanted that horse…”
Turning his head, Yeonwoo looked at the gate with a gaze filled with regret.
But the tempting white horse had long disappeared.
At that moment, Yeonwoo seemed to be captivated by something.
“…Alright, I’ll just see it once. Even if I can’t have it, it won’t wear out from seeing it one more time.”
In the end, Yeonwoo’s lingering regret moved him.
Although it was a genuinely delightful offer, it made him want to witness the horse once more, even if he couldn’t have it.
“It’s not too late. If I leave now, I can catch up with Nari.”
Preparing hastily and stepping out of the gate, Yeonwoo began running in the direction where Geon had disappeared.
In the streets of the capital.
Gidaeng, leaning against the pillar outside the store, seemed unusually lacking in enthusiasm.
Entering the tavern to find someone to spend money on, Gidaeng, even when potential customers passed by, just stared blankly into the void.
Then, Gidan arrived.
“What are you doing? Aren’t you catching any customers?”
“Sigh… What’s the point of catching customers? It’s not like I’ll get a lover.”
“Again with that complaint?”
Gidaeng sighed as if fed up.
Ever since Gidaeng learned that Geon had feelings for Yeonwoo, Gidaeng had been in a state of dejection.
“Is there only one man in the world? Look at this street; it’s full of men!”
“What are you saying now? Are you equating that lover with the pebbles on the street?”
“Then what? Does that lover have a separate woman she likes?”
“I know, it’s this woman!”
Feeling emotional for no reason, Gidaeng burst into tears, and Gidan looked at Gidaeng with an absurd expression.
“Is this sister crazy? If you’re going to waste time like this, come in and try the store!”
After realizing that Geon’s gaze towards Yeonwoo was unusual, Gi-hyang had been trying to suppress her feelings for Geon. But even when trying to turn her feelings to another man, she couldn’t find a man who made her heart flutter like Geon did.
Then, she noticed Geon leading a white horse.
Gi-hyang’s cloudy eyes brightened.
“Nari?!”
Come to think of it, while Geon seemed interested in Yeonwoo, Yeonwoo didn’t seem interested in Geon. He even replied that it didn’t matter when asked if Gi-hyang could approach Geon.
Gi-hyang, who looked like she was nursing a one-sided love, had a new thought.
Didn’t they say that there’s no man who won’t fall if you hit him ten times?
Geon had only been hit once by Gi-hyang, so if she tried a few more times, Geon’s heart might tilt towards her.
Besides, Geon and Yeonwoo weren’t married or lovers, so there was nothing to be concerned about.
Ignoring Gidan’s attempt to drag her into the store, Gi-hyang rushed towards Geon.
Even her discouraged voice had regained its vigor.
“Oh my! Nari! What a fateful encounter!”
Geon frowned at Gi-hyang blocking his way.
“Who dares to block my way?”
“I’m Gi-hyang. I’m the owner of the biggest tavern on this street!”
“Ah.”
Only then did Geon remember who Gi-hyang was and made a short sound.
Then, Gi-hyang continued talking and followed Geon as he walked away.
“Seeing that you don’t even have time to talk to a girl, you must be very busy. Where are you rushing off to?”
“I don’t know.”

The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
