“Gwangho-kun Nari!”
With teary eyes, Yeonu called out to Geon.
As Geon rushed toward Yeonu, Kim Taeseok, quickly covering his face with his sleeve, turned and started to flee.
His escape was swift and there was no chance to catch him.
“Hong Yeonu!”
Gean, who had come close, held Yeonu’s shoulders with both hands.
With a worried expression, he examined Yeonu’s body and spoke.
“Are you injured anywhere?”
“Yes, I’m fine. More importantly…!”
When Yeonu shifted her gaze, she saw Daebok gasping for breath in Choa’s arms.
Choa, tears rolling down her cheeks like raindrops, called out to Daebok.
“Nari! Uhh… Wake up, Nari!”
“Uaaah! Daebok Oppa!”
“Hoah, huk…”
Choa’s teardrops stained Daebok’s pale forehead that had fallen.
Despite Choa and Sua’s desperate calls, Daebok could only manage to exhale a breath with the sound of creaking metal.
“Hy, Hyungnim…!”
Yeonu collapsed in front of Daebok. The unfolding situation before her eyes felt like a nightmare.
This couldn’t happen to Daebok, who always smiled innocently, making jokes.
Yeonu struggled to open her trembling lips.
“Is it a joke…? Are you kidding right now?”
Daebok would soon burst into mischievous laughter, dismiss it as a joke or a prank, and get up, brushing off any concerns.
Being a carefree person, he would not be bothered by such incidents.
However, unlike Yeonu’s expectations, Daebok’s breathing was gradually fading away.
“Huuk…”
“Don’t joke around! Get up right now!”
Yeonu, as if unwilling to admit the reality in front of her, turned her head away.
“No, no. This can’t be happening…!”
Yeonu, who had suppressed her tears, eventually shed thick drops from her eyes.
At that moment, Myeongok stepped forward.
“I’ll excuse myself for a moment.”
Calmly, Myeongok pulled the dagger stuck in Daebok’s chest.
“Cough!”
As blood poured from Daebok’s mouth, his face contorted in pain.
Unable to watch him like that, Yeonu closed her eyes and buried her head in Geon’s chest as he approached.
Geon’s large hands gently embraced Yeonu.
Subsequently, Myeongok, who had removed Daebok’s upper body, staunchly treated the wounds and spoke to Choa.
“Bring medicine mixed with cuttlefish bone powder, bandages, birch bark, and goldthread powder (a medicine for wounds caused by flying objects).”
“…”
Daebok, seemingly unable to shake off the shock of his collapse, stared blankly at Daebok, showing no response to Myeongok’s call.
“Jeong Choa! Aren’t you coming to your senses?! Bring them quickly!”
“Yes…? Yes…!”
Reluctantly coming to her senses at Myeongok’s urging, Choa got up from her place.
Then, in a hurry, she ran to the room and, upon returning, brought the requested medicinal ingredients.
After calmly removing the birch bark from Daebok’s mouth, Myeongok skillfully began the treatment with the medicines Choa had brought.
After wrapping Daebok’s wound with a bandage, the treatment was finally completed.
“The urgent treatment is done.”
At the announcement that the treatment was over, Yeonu came out of Geon’s embrace and inspected Daebok’s complexion.
Myeongok, wearing a grave expression, spoke.
“This place is not safe. We need to move quickly.”
Even though Kim Taeseok had left, there was uncertainty about when he might return.
Now that Myeongok’s hiding place had been exposed, her house was dangerous.
As Yeonu, Geon, and Choa’s gazes intertwined in the air, an unsettled anxiety lingered around.
Having lost a place to stay, Choa’s family moved to Yeonu’s residence.
Although Yeonu’s house was small, it was carefully chosen, considering her concerns about living alone as a woman.
In the daytime, it was a neighborhood with good security where patrol troops patrolled, and at night, double the number of patrol troops from other places also maintained security. This made it convenient for Choa’s family to hide from Kim Taeseok’s eyes.
As it was getting late, and too much had happened in a short period, the group decided to go to their rooms and take a rest.
When Yeonu sat down on the veranda to catch her breath, Geon approached.
“Gwangho-gun Nari came…!”
As Yeonu tried to get up, Geon extended his hand as if to indicate that she should stay seated.
Yeonu, who was already petite, looked particularly fragile and small today.
Initially, Geon had patiently waited for Yeonu, who said she was going to visit Choa’s house.
However, waiting was futile, and he happened to be near Choa’s house in advance. He didn’t anticipate this situation unfolding.
He didn’t know why Salsu appeared at Choa’s house, but he felt dizzy at the thought that something significant could have happened to Yeonu if he hadn’t been there in advance.
Moreover, Daebok was injured too.
Since Daebok was also his subordinate, Geon’s heart was not at ease. However, Daebok was also Yeonu’s closest comrade.
Yeonu would be deeply affected by Daebok’s serious injury.
Amidst the sudden accident, Geon, who was just quietly sitting next to Yeonu, felt lightheaded.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
