Swoosh.
The sound of the water, as refreshing as a waterfall, abruptly stopped.
The door creaked open, and Gyo Hwan, who had just finished showering, came out wearing a white bathrobe amidst the misty steam.
Hum. Gyo Hwan was in front of the mirror drying his hair with a hairdryer.
Phew, they say dreams are a reflection of the unconscious.
Lying on the bed, Hyo Jin traced the sexy, curved chest of a grown man reflected in the mirror through the opening of his robe with her eyes.
What would it feel like to be embraced in those wide arms?
It would definitely be very warm and cozy, right?
Deep eyes, where you couldn’t possibly know what he was thinking, a sharp nose, thin lips. The adam’s apple that stood out as if to prove his masculinity on the face formed with delicate curves.
Every time he shook his head with the hairdryer, the strong scent of his pheromones resonated all the way here.
Hmm, but could you smell such a strong scent even in a dream?
Just as a bee is attracted to the scent of a flower, Hyo Jin lifted her body from the bed, brought her head close to his back, and closed her eyes as if to savor it.
Gyo Hwan, who had turned off the hairdryer, looked back.
Upon hearing that sound, Hyo Jin opened her eyes, but it felt as though time had stopped, and she couldn’t hear anything.
As expected, the time that only flowed for him moved his lips, melting Hyo Jin’s eardrums.
“Have you woken up?”
Darn. Only then did Hyo Jin, who finally realized that it wasn’t a dream, flop back onto the bed and look around.
Come to think of it, this isn’t my room, is it?
Then where is this place… could it be a hotel??
Eek!
A shrill scream erupted from Hyo Jin’s mouth as she rose from the bed.
“Father. Why are we here? What did you do to me last night? Surely a person of your knowledge wouldn’t be so despicable as to lay a hand on a woman who’s weak from drinking, would you? Especially not to someone who’s not just anyone, but your son’s tutor?”
Hyo Jin, who had been bouncing on the bed, picked up a pillow as she looked around.
Ah, you really can’t fool blood.
Her lowbrow imagination was just as bad as her useless younger brother.
“It’s getting late, so wash up quickly and go to work. Team Leader Nam will bring your clothes.”
Gyo Hwan replied dismissively, as if she was not worth his time, and put the hairdryer he was holding back in its place.
“Eh? Clothes?”
Hyo Jin dropped the pillow she was holding and crossed her arms over her chest as the same clothes from yesterday entered her view.
“So you’re going in like that?”
There were only a few employees working at the resort. Everyone would know that she didn’t spend the night at home yesterday.
Dingdong.
The doorbell rang, and Gyo Hwan went to open the door.
“CEO, what happened? What on earth happened last night! You’ve been calling me since dawn to come to the hotel… Aack!”
Team Leader Nam, who had entered the room, dropped the bags he was carrying as if he’d seen a ghost upon seeing Hyo Jin.
“Goodness, why is Ms. Bong here…!”
Hyo Jin, whose face had turned pale, immediately pulled the blanket over her head to hide, but it was too late.
Gyo Hwan, who had just finished showering and was wearing a bathrobe.
The eyes of a blushing Ms. Bong.
The corners of Team Leader Nam’s mouth, who seemed to sense something, twitched briefly.
“Don’t imagine anything strange.”
Before Gyo Hwan could finish his sentence, his arm was pulled.
“CEO! Follow me.”
“Where to? We’re already late as it is.”
Team Leader Nam, who had dragged Gyo Hwan into the bathroom, closed the door and, fearing they might be overheard, he pushed his face close to Gyo Hwan’s in a hushed voice.
“Have you lost your mind?”
Gyo Hwan, too, let out a sigh.
“I’m about to lose it myself.”
“It’s not enough that rumors are circulating at the school that she’s your mother, but now she’s hanging around at the hotel?”
“What can I do then? I couldn’t just leave a drunk woman lying on the street.”
And it would be even more unthinkable to bring a woman who was screaming at the top of her lungs to the resort, wouldn’t it?
“CEO, do you realize that our firm has the highest proportion of female lawyers among law firms?”
Of course, a man and a woman who have promised to marry can break up. However, if the reason for the breakup is the other party’s infidelity, it could be a serious blow to gaining the support of the employees in any potential dispute over the management rights with CEO Kang Jae Ik.
‘What should I do.’
Hyo Jin, who had been eavesdropping with her ear pressed against the door, hurriedly packed her bag to avoid this awkward situation.
Her hair was a mess and her jacket, draped over her shoulders, hadn’t even had its buttons done up properly as she began to walk, but her ankle seemed to get caught in the suit bag that Team Leader Nam had dropped on the floor, causing her to slip and fall.
Thud.
The gaze of Team Leader Nam and Gyo Hwan, who had been talking inside, clashed at the sound of her becoming one with the floor.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
