Evening had settled, and the land spider began to descend. In front of Gwangho Army’s entrance.
A seismic shift occurred in Mr. Park’s eyes as he looked at Yeonwoo.
Mr. Park had confirmed Yeonwoo’s well-being with the money placed under the memorial stone for a whole month, but he had no idea about what she was doing or how she was living.
Part of it was due to Yeonwoo not wanting to inform her family about her current situation, and from Mr. Park’s perspective, there was no particular way for him to know Yeonwoo’s whereabouts.
Initially, he didn’t believe the news conveyed by Bye Yeong.
How could a woman enlist in the military?
Moreover, she seemed to be behaving like a man. There could be nothing more absurd than this.
Until he saw it with his own eyes, Mr. Park couldn’t believe the news that Yeonwoo had disguised herself as a man and enlisted.
However, when he visited his daughter after a few months, she indeed appeared as a perfectly genuine man, just as Bye Yeong had said.
Mr. Park couldn’t believe it even after seeing Yeonwoo with his own eyes.
“Why… why did you dress and behave like a man?!”
“!”
Yeonwoo’s face turned pale at the unexpected arrival of her mother.
It was not appropriate for Mr. Park to appear here. She couldn’t reveal her true identity so easily.
“How did you… How did you find out?”
“This is not the time for that. Follow me immediately!”
Mr. Park, who needed to return as soon as possible to protect Yeonho, had no time to explain the situation to Yeonwoo or be surprised by the appearance of his daughter disguised as a man.
Mr. Park grabbed Yeonwoo’s wrist and tried to drag her away.
However, Yeonwoo resisted, stepping backward.
“Let go of my hand! Where are you trying to take me all of a sudden?”
“Your brother, Yeonho…!”
Before Mr. Park could finish his sentence, Geon snatched his hand away, separating him from Yeonwoo.
Then, concealing Yeonwoo behind him, Geon spoke with a chilling tone to Mr. Park.
“Who are you?”
The oppressive aura emanating from Geon’s eyes made the surrounding air heavy.
The middle-aged woman who suddenly appeared didn’t look like a friendly guest to Yeonwoo.
Geon spoke with a decisive tone.
“You can’t take this person without my permission.”
Faced with the coldness emanating from Geon, Mr. Park hesitated.
Even combining the threatening atmosphere of the ruffians brought by Bye Yeong, he couldn’t withstand the imposing aura of the man standing alone in front of him.
It felt like encountering a tiger in the mountains.
However, for Mr. Park, the safety of his child was a priority over everything.
To be precise, the safety of Yeonho took precedence.
Suppressing the fear that had grown within him, Mr. Park confidently raised his chin.
“I’m Yeonwoo’s mother.”
Geon’s thick eyebrows twitched.
The sight of Mr. Park, who was forcibly trying to take Yeonwoo away, was not an ideal image of a mother.
Was this woman, who looked even worse than others, really Yeonwoo’s mother?
Geon recalled the memory from his encounter with Yeonho, where the woman tried to force an unwanted marriage with an old uncle.
“Being a parent doesn’t give you the right to handle your child recklessly.”
“…!”
“Daughter?”
Yeonwoo’s pupils shook as she looked at Geon. Yeonwoo’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, her entire body turned cold as if drenched in icy water, and her mind went blank as if someone had wiped it clean.
The suspicion she had feared turned out to be correct. Geon undoubtedly knew that Yeonwoo was a woman.
In the midst of an overwhelming situation, Yeonwoo’s mind became a tangled mess, like a ball of yarn in chaos.
“I… my…”
Yeonwoo’s hand began to tremble slightly. At that moment, Geon firmly grasped her hand, as if trying to reassure her.
As the situation lingered, the impatient Mr. Park spoke up.
“It’s obvious she’s from a high-ranking family, and you don’t need to worry about such a distinguished person. Yeonwoo, what are you doing! Come here!”
Out of the commotion outside the military base, Biyoung came out.
“What’s going on?”
“Tr-trainer…!”
Biyoung’s gaze fell on the joined hands of Yeonwoo and Geon. Seeing that, Biyoung’s body twitched, and upon recognizing Mrs. Park next to Yeonwoo, he twitched once more.
“Mother…? What brings you here?”
“Do you know her?”
Mr. Park looked puzzled at Biyoung’s reaction. He seemed familiar with the man somewhere, but couldn’t remember.
Yeonwoo and Biyoung had been acquainted since childhood, so Biyoung had memorized Mr. Park’s face. However, because too much time had passed, Mr. Park couldn’t recognize Biyoung at once.
Although taken aback by the sudden appearance of the two men, Mrs. Park couldn’t hesitate any longer.
“It’s not the time for this. Yeonho has been taken hostage!”
“Taken hostage? What does that mean? By whom?”
“There’s no time to explain! We must go; your brother is in danger!”
At the mention of Yeonho being taken hostage, Yeonwoo’s mind swirled. What on earth was happening now? Was there an accident or trouble while she was absent?
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
