In the middle of the street, Yeonwoo, standing there, raised his voice towards Geon.

“I’ll let you meet her!”

Having obtained the desired response, Geon inwardly smiled with a sense of satisfaction. Originally, he had no intention of meeting Gi-hyang, but the bait he threw worked perfectly.

Pretending not to hear Yeonwoo’s words, Geon feigned ignorance and asked Yeonwoo casually, “What?”

“I said I’ll let you meet my sister!”

“Alright. But why are you getting angry?”

Yeonwoo, still feeling stirred without knowing why, spoke confidently.

“I came to say that, but seeing you flirting with another woman, can I not get angry?”

He had only come to chase after Geon because he wanted to see the white horse once more. However, witnessing Geon with Gi-hyang, he couldn’t stand it and impulsively blurted out that he would allow Geon to meet her.

‘What? She’s good at things other than cooking? Is that a big deal in a world where men and women are distinguished? A face that’s half and half, good personality, earns money well, good figure, and good at sexual intercourse – thinking that men would fall for that?’

Yeonwoo, who had once said that it was okay to pursue Geon, seemed to have forgotten that response and grumbled inwardly about dissatisfaction with Gi-hyang’s perfect appearance.

Perhaps, he didn’t even realize that he was more upset at Gi-hyang, who seemed to have no flaws as a woman.

‘Nari is the same. Just because a fox wags its tail, he stares blankly at the back view!’

While Geon viewed Gi-hyang’s back with an absurd expression, Yeonwoo had long since twisted the facts to his liking.

Yeonwoo had become annoyed with Geon just because he was with Gi-hyang.

On the other hand, Geon, seeing Yeonwoo exhaling rough breaths, thought of him like an angry squirrel and struggled to suppress his laughter as he replied, “Alright. I was wrong.”

“That’s right, Nari has been wrong a hundred times.”

As Geon admitted his mistake, Yeonwoo’s anger seemed to subside more than before.

“Then consider it as you meeting my sister.”

“But there’s a condition.”

“What is it?”

After regaining his composure, Yeonwoo took a deep breath and spoke.

“On the day you meet my sister, give me a day off.”

Unless Yeonwoo had two bodies, he couldn’t meet Geon in the form of a woman. It was a natural request.

Geon, who didn’t know this fact, couldn’t understand why Yeonwoo needed a day off on the day he met Yeonho.

But Yeonwoo’s request wasn’t that difficult, and since Geon didn’t feel the need to ask for an explanation, he readily agreed.

“Alright.”

“And secondly.”

This time, Yeonwoo spoke with a quite firm attitude.

“Don’t talk to any other woman except my sister. That’s the condition.”

“Hmm…”

Although the second request wasn’t an impossible condition to fulfill, Geon showed an interesting reaction as the unexpected content intrigued him.

“Well, my apologies.”

“Especially, if my sister sees you in today’s state, what do you think she’ll think? Rather than being sincere, she would probably think of you as a playboy.”
Geon finally seemed to understand why Yeonwoo had been so angry. Seeing him with another woman while neglecting his sister was an unpleasant sight for Yeonwoo. Considering that they were close siblings, Geon easily accepted the idea that Yeonwoo would naturally feel protective of his sister.

“On the day you meet my sister, give me a day off, and don’t socialize with other women. Those are my conditions.”

“Alright.”

“So, when and where will the promise be?”

“If Nangja tells me the comfortable time and place, I will adjust accordingly. Convey that.”

“Yes, understood.”

Yeonwoo felt somewhat uneasy inside, but he decided to let it go. After all, wasn’t it a good thing to hear kind words?

“Are you keeping your word?”

“Of course.”

Upon seeing the spirited white horse, Yeonwoo’s uncomfortable feelings vanished like melting snow. Yeonwoo looked at the white horse with a honeyed gaze, taking hold of the reins.

“Now, Gi-hyang, let’s go home.”

“…Why do you call me Gi-hyang?”

“How about the name Gi-hyang? It’s pretty.”

“But it’s a male name.”

“Just because it’s male doesn’t mean you can’t use a pretty name, is there a law against it?”

It’s definitely not because Gi-hyang approached Nari. Absolutely, never.

Yeonwoo subtly glanced at Geon and said, “By the way, until when are you going to keep that handkerchief around your neck?”

“Oh.”

Geon’s gaze fell on the handkerchief wrapped around Gi-hyang’s neck. He had forgotten about its existence in his lack of concern.

When Geon pulled out the handkerchief from around his neck, Yeonwoo extended his hand.

“If you have no use for it, how about giving it to me? If you carry a woman’s handkerchief, my sister might misunderstand.”

“Alright.”

Yeonwoo neatly put the handkerchief Geon handed him into his pocket. It seemed useful for Gi-hyang, the new family member, when she sneezed.

On the day of the appointment with Geon.

Yeonwoo couldn’t sleep properly due to an inexplicable nervousness.
