“You said you wanted to eat it, the teacher didn’t say she wanted to eat it.”
Han Na even had a look of not knowing why she asked.
“Then, teacher, you eat it.”
Seeing Seung Yul suddenly offering his own, Han Na had an expression as if cold water had been poured over her.
“Seung Yul, I’m fine.”
How can I eat that?
“Is that so? Then I don’t want to eat it either.”
The ice cream Han Na bought was thrown into the trash in an instant.
“What are you doing?”
Hyo Jin looked at Seung Yul in astonishment.

“You said you wouldn’t eat, teacher.”
“But it’s because I bought it for you.”
“Then why didn’t you buy one for the teacher.”
Seung Yul grumbled.
“Is that so? Did I do something wrong?”
Han Na, who had been looking down on Hyo Jin as being beneath her, felt greatly wronged.
“Get in.”
This time he directly opened the car door and was about to follow Seung Yul into the back seat.
“That’s the teacher’s seat, isn’t it?”
A displeased look, as if she had intruded on the passenger seat where only the wife should sit.

“Mr. Chauffeur, go ahead.”
Realizing that she was purposely being difficult, Hyo Jin chose to avoid the seat instead.
“I urgently need to use the restroom. I’ll take a taxi after I’m done.”
As she closed the car door and turned around, the car, which had quietly started its engine, suddenly stopped.
“……?”
Before the chauffeur could open the door, Seung Yul who had gotten out first, slammed the door shut.
“Why, again?”
“I also need to go to the restroom.”
“Baby, why are you like this?”
My heart was pounding in fear of bumping into the mothers.

“You’re not really going to the restroom, right? Lying now that you’re a teacher.”
“Well, you’re the one who keeps putting me in a difficult situation.”
“That is the teacher’s seat!”
“But, I’m going to be a mom. It’s natural for me to give way.”
“Not yet.”
“But it’s going to happen soon.”
“……!”
“You said you needed a mother. But why are you like this to me?”
When the real mothertobe was right next to him.
“Are you going to act like this and be mistreated by a stepmother after getting married?”

“Our Yul will go to the UK next year. Don’t make things harder for a kid who will be busy adapting to a foreign country.”
The advice of Mrs. Min Ja Hyun deeply pierced Hyo Jin’s lungs.
“Don’t try to teach me. You’re not even interested in me.”
Seung Yul passed by Hyo Jin as if he were to vomit, and walked towards the school gate.
“Baby, where are you going? You should ride in the car.”
“You, teacher, ride the car. I will walk home.”
Baby! Why are you doing this to me too!
In the end, when we arrived at the forest park sitting side by side in the back seat, a dinner was being prepared in the garden.
Having sent the boss baby up to change clothes, Hyo Jin, following the butler’s instructions, diligently wiped the plates on the table like any other maid.
Gyo Hwan, who left work earlier than usual, brought Seung Yul, who had changed his clothes, and walked side by side with Han Na.

Hyo Jin was captivated by the perfect visuals that could pass as a merry family from the outside.
“Where is grandmother?”
Gyo Hwan asked about the empty seat, even though the table was set.
“Isn’t the night breeze quite cold?”
“Then you can do it inside.”
“Still, we’ve already set it up……”
Aware of Han Na, Ja Hyun fluttered her eyelashes and smiled at Gyo Hwan.
As if to say, stop nagging and just sit down quietly.
“Can’t the teacher eat with us too?”
Hello, Seung Yul? Why are you doing this to me?

Hyo Jin, who had been momentarily captivated by the sight of the three, came to her senses and gritted her teeth at Seung Yul.
It was clear that this wasn’t about liking me, but a calculated move to scratch Han Na’s heart.
“We’ve never had a meal together since you came to our house.”
‘Keep your mouth shut, Baby. Why risk indigestion? I don’t want it.’
Gyo Hwan turned his steps as if there seemed to be a point upon hearing and looking.
“Please, sit down. If it’s not too uncomfortable.”
“No, it’s okay.”
How audacious, to act humble without any sense of shame.
Ja Hyun didn’t say a word, but her expression was as if she was chewing a stone.
“Grandmother. Can I eat with the teacher? We’ve had meals with other teachers. But why don’t you suggest we eat together with this teacher?”

Boss Baby pinpointed and attacked with facts.
Ja Hyun, who had become a merciless grandmother, reluctantly gave in.
“Sit down. Our Yul really wants it.”
Sliced ham with salad on a white plate was served as an appetizer.
Being in such a situation for the first time, Hyo Jin felt as if she was facing an unsolved math problem for centuries.
Seung Yul kicked Hyo Jin under the table, who was reaching for a fork.
Why, again? I’m so nervous I could die.
‘Ah……!’
Seeing Seung Yul picking up a salad fork, Hyo Jin tactfully put down the dinner fork and followed what Baby was doing.
“Seung Yul seems to like the teacher a lot.”

I wonder since when had she been watching. Han Na, who was sitting across, grumbled as if displeased.
“The teacher is kind and teaches in an easytounderstand way. I hope I can continue to study with the teacher even when I go to England.”
Huh. Ja Hyun, who was elegantly bringing her lips to the edge of the wine glass, wiped off the wine that had flowed on the back of her hand with a napkin.
“That would be difficult.”
Gyo Hwan, who had filled the glass and put down the decanter, looked at Seung Yul as if reproachful.
“The teacher has her own circumstances too, it’s not something that can be achieved just because you want it. She’s still unmarried, so she has to get married.”
“No, sir. I… I don’t have a boyfriend.”
No one asked.
Hyo Jin, who was just as reluctant to part as Yul, clenched her fist unknowingly.
“Really. There is no man who likes me either.”

Unless I had a son.
“Could you please put down that knife now that I’ve understood? It looks dangerous.”
“Eh?”
Seeing Gyo Hwan’s gaze directed at the knife held in her right hand, Hyo Jin was startled and dropped it.
Clang. As Hyo Jin bent over to pick up the knife that had fallen on the floor, Han Na’s voice descended over her head.
“Then shall I introduce you to someone?”
Han Na, who had been savoring the aroma by swirling her winefilled glass, pushed up her lips into a smile.
“There’s someone I’ve been wanting to introduce.”

Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect.

She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
