Feeling inferior already, Hyo Jin clenched her fist on the table and strained her intoxicated eyes.
“It’s a place where the gods of study, who are praised nationwide like Teacher Bong, gather to compete. Have you solved the past law school questions?”
“Of course. Did you think I wouldn’t have checked that much before asking?”
You said you would introduce me to an investment specialist lawyer. Are you treating me like a completely irresponsible person?
“Simply passing the exam and becoming a lawyer is not enough. You have to become an outstanding lawyer.”
“….”
“Do you have the confidence to compete with those who are praised and become the top 1 percent?”
“Phew, you seem too cold.”
You are trampling on the budding sprouts.
“Don’t you think I can’t just pat you on the back while watching you jump into a burning pit?”
“Ha, are you saying it’s outrageous for me to become a lawyer?”
“Well, more than that. There are only a certain number of people taking the law exam each year, do you really need to join the ranks, especially when you’re already an excellent teacher like Teacher Bong?”
Gyo Hwan looked at her with a sullen expression, as if curious.
“But why do you suddenly want to be a lawyer?”
Hyo Jin, feeling bitter, emptied her glass and spoke with a sigh.
“I want to become a wonderful adult like Professor Kim Yong Hoon.”
“Like your father?”
“He helped me a lot when I was struggling. My late father left a lot of debt.”
Gyo Hwan, who already knew the situation from Yong Hoon, suddenly became curious.
“How did your father end up leaving such a big debt and passing away?”
“Um… I’ll tell you later.”
Everyone tends to have family history they want to hide.
“Alright then.”
Seeing that she seemed unwilling, Gyo Hwan didn’t pry further and filled up her empty glass.
“You must’ve had a hard time after your father passed away.”
“I think I liked it better when I was younger.”
“…?”
“You have the hope that things will change when you grow up.”
Realizing that not much had changed even after turning twentyseven made her feel this way even more.
“When I was young, I thought I’d be able to do everything I wanted without worries once I became an adult.”
Still struggling because of money.
She didn’t know she would become an adult who would hide her feelings and tell lies.
“You suit well with the announcer Kang Hanna.”
“What did your father do when he was twentyseven?”
Resting her chin on her hand, Hyo Jin looked at Gyo Hwan as if she was suddenly curious.
“Well, I became a father to Yul.”
Seeing him say that so calmly, Hyo Jin couldn’t help but burst into tears.
“Why?”
Gyo Hwan looked taken aback, seeing Hyo Jin suddenly start to cry.
“Teacher Bong?”
Did I do something wrong?
“I’m sorry, Father.”
“What on earth…”
“I’m sorry. I rashly judged without knowing well.”
Thinking about how he must have felt becoming a father at her age, Hyo Jin kept tearing up.
He must have felt lost becoming a father. What did I do to him who lost his wife and raised his child alone?
Feeling so embarrassed and sorry for criticizing him as a zeropoint dad, sprinkling salt on his wounds, she couldn’t lift her head.
“Aren’t you cold?”
A familiar scent approached and wrapped around the nose of Hyo Jin who was sobbing with her head bowed.
Hyo Jin lifted her tearblurred gaze at the comforting warmth wrapping around her back.
Gyo Hwan, who had taken off his cardigan and draped it over her shoulders, gently massaged her trembling shoulders with his palms.
“I thought you might be cold.”
Hyo Jin’s dewy gaze slowly rolled into Gyo Hwan’s deep eyes.
The Hyo Jin reflected in those eyes felt as if the surroundings had quieted down like a submerged surface, and time seemed to be flowing only for him.
“You should probably get up now.”
Worried that Hyo Jin might cry more, Gyo Hwan comforted her shoulder once more and got up.
However, when Hyo Jin cupped his cheeks with her hands, Gyo Hwan had no choice but to turn his head and face her.
“…?”
At the sudden closeness of their faces, Gyo Hwan looked into her deep eyes, finding Hyo Jin’s hands on his cheeks excessively warm.
Believing she had something to say, he looked down at her lips. Her breath, carrying the scent of wine, was gradually coming closer to him.

Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
