“I’m really sorry. If something like this happens again, I’ll give Seung Yul a good scolding.”
Upon returning to Sangrimwon, Gyo Hwan, fearing that Seung Yul might overhear, could only apologize via messenger.
“No, Dad. If you scold him, it’ll all be in vain, all the effort I’ve put into getting closer to Seung Yul.”
Besides, if Seung Yul found out they were dating, things could get even more complicated.
“I’m sorry to the teacher. It’s okay for me if you scold and punish me, but I can’t face the teacher.”
Gyo Hwan, who had believed he would be a staunch ally, felt like he had been hit hard in the back of his head.
It wasn’t even his mother, Ja Hyun.
“I thought Teacher would be happy if she became a mom. Instead, isn’t she asking for attention?”
“I’ll never feel upset from now on, so please just pretend you don’t know, Dad. If, by any chance, I have a dispute with Seung Yul, always take Seung Yul’s side no matter what. Even if I’m with Dad and Seung Yul, I’ll take care of Seung Yul first. You understand, right?”
However, Gyo Hwan couldn’t help but worry, especially considering the day when Hye Jin got hurt because of Seung Yul.
“If Teacher has any troubles because of Seung Yul, she can confide in me too. Don’t hide it from me for no reason. Got it?”

Having secured the promise that it would be done, Gyo Hwan took off his clothes and headed to the bathroom.
With a soft click, the bathroom door closed, and at the same time, Seung Yul hurriedly approached and unlocked his phone.
As soon as they got home, closed the door and entered the room, they had a secret conversation with Teacher.
Did they talk about me again?
Turning his head, Seung Yul confirmed that Gyo Hwan was vigorously showering. He imitated his dad’s tone and sent a text message.
“Come to the amusement park entrance tomorrow.”
Before the read receipt disappeared, a reply quickly arrived.
“Why?”
“We didn’t have much fun going with Yul. Let’s have a blast, just the two of us.”
Teacher, who had been silent with a puzzled expression, finally asked, “Until what time should we go?”
“Tsk. She agreed to come because I suggested we have fun together.”
Seung Yul, who hadn’t expected her to actually agree, felt a sense of betrayal and wanted to tease her even more.

“The time is 3 PM in the afternoon. The place is the ticket booth in front of the amusement park.”
She also didn’t forget the instructions to wear the dress she bought today and the cute bunny headband they had worn at the amusement park.
Surely, she won’t really come out in this weather dressed like that, will she?
“By the way, while I’m showering, Yul might see my phone, so don’t reply to the messages from now on.”
Seung Yul diligently deleted the message he had sent after playfully tapping the keys.
He waited anxiously in case Teacher would send another text, but as expected, she didn’t say anything as instructed. Annoying. Does Dad do everything Mom tells him to do?
“Why should I even bother? If I had firmly refused and got angry, I wouldn’t feel this bad.”
Seung Yul felt even more hurt because it was Teacher, whom he thought of as his own, who did this.
Even though people in the world often try to please their dads, Teacher was the one who had always stood by him and fought with his dad.
The next day, in the afternoon, 30 minutes before the appointed time.
Teacher, wearing the sky-blue dress that Dad had bought, appeared in the hallway.

Ha, she really dressed as she was told. Is she crazy?
No matter how much he had told her to wear it, this was too much. How could she go out in this weather like that? Did Dad not care if she froze to death?
Should he go now and tell her it was just a joke? If she goes out like that, she’ll definitely catch a cold.
As Jennifer hesitated, caught in the decision of whether to go or stay, the native English teacher entered.
“Hi, Seungyul. How are you?”
[Seungyul, hello. How are you feeling today?]“Fine. Thanks.”
Seungyul replied dryly, lowered the blinds, and returned to his desk.
I don’t know. Whether I catch a cold or not, what does it matter to me?
Now she’s not my girlfriend; she’s Dad’s girlfriend.
Through the half-closed blinds, he spotted the teacher hurrying to the garden, seemingly worried about being late for their appointment, unaware that her happiness was built on a lie. Seungyul gripped the pencil in his hand as if he might snap it in two.
Not even realizing that it was a lie, he tightly gripped the pencil in his hand, as if he might break it.

Because it meant that the teacher loved Dad that much.
Ah, it’s cold. Why did I have to come out in weather like this?
Hyojin was wearing a short golf dress that fluttered around her thighs, green knee-high socks, and a rabbit-shaped headband.
Father has a sly side too. Well, even he must want to break free sometimes. He didn’t have the chance to play to his heart’s content when he was young.
Despite rolling her feet and melting her ears with her hands, the bone-chilling cold wouldn’t easily disappear.
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
