“Baby, have you done your math homework?”
“Yes, here it is.”
Having finished regular classes at school and returned to Sangrimwon, Hyo Jin prepared Seung Yul’s math textbook and reading record from his bag, and also prepared the English textbook.
“Good job. Let’s finish the English class first, and then we’ll solve the wrong problems together.”
“Yes.”
“Hi.”
Hyo Jin briefly asked about the wellbeing of Jennifer, the native English teacher waiting outside the door, and left the garden.
As she headed towards the quarters, she heard the sound of a car approaching and stopping in the distance.
At the same time, Hyo Jin also involuntarily stopped her steps.
Gyo Hwan, who got out of the car opened by Driver Seo, stopped as he spotted Hyo Jin while adjusting his suit.

The two of them froze as if encased in ice upon making eye contact, silently looking at each other.
One second, two seconds, three seconds, four seconds, five seconds, six seconds….
“….”
“….”
Thinking she might spend all night like this, Hyo Jin first lowered her head silently and walked towards the quarters, acutely aware of his gaze following her back.
Gyo Hwan, who had been watching her, also turned and entered the main building.
‘Why did I have to get so drunk. When did I lose control.’
As she walked, she felt a sense of injustice for some reason.
“Teacher Bong.”
“Yes?”

Hyo Jin nearly dropped the workbook in her hand in surprise at the low voice, as if struck by lightning.
“Let’s talk for a moment.”
Huh? Why?
Before she could muster the courage to ask, Gyo Hwan was already leading the way to his office.
Gyo Hwan’s study.
Knock, knock.
“Come in.”
Upon hearing Gyo Hwan’s voice, Hyo Jin cautiously opened the door and stepped in.
Gyo Hwan, who had been standing with his back to the window, closed the door behind the embarrassed Hyo Jin.
Startled, Hyo Jin straightened her spine as they were left alone in the enclosed space.

“Why are you avoiding me?”
“Me?”
Gyo Hwan, looking like he had no idea what she was talking about, placed a file in front of Hyo Jin, whose eyes were wide open in surprise.
“Why is this with Team Leader Nam?”
“Father asked for a report on the progress schedule, didn’t he?”
Hyo Jin was embarrassed, but since it wasn’t a lie, she tried hard to look unaffected.
“Is it because I drank alcohol and kissed you?”
A fastball came without a curve, leaving Hyo Jin speechless with her mouth open.
“Aren’t you asking? Whether it was because of the work that night.”
Cornered, Hyo Jin fumbled with her opened lips.

“I’m sorry.”
“If you’re sorry, let’s not be uncomfortable with each other over this matter anymore.”
Hyo Jin was even more puzzled by the reaction that seemed to be seeking a sort of agreement.
“Father, aren’t you bothered at all?”
“What?”
Having been perfectly fine until now.
“Were you thrilled?”
“Excuse me?”
“Were you thrilled?”
Huh, Hyo Jin was so taken aback by the reaction that seemed to be questioning an event that happened to a third party, she felt uncomfortable.

“I, I feel uncomfortable.”
“What makes you uncomfortable?”
Is he really asking because he doesn’t know?
“Don’t you think it’s strange that Father is unbothered even after such an event?”
“Honestly, I wasn’t bothered at all.”
Seriously. Not bothered at all? Even though they had kissed, albeit due to drunkenness?
Hyo Jin’s eyes nearly popped out in disbelief.
“Of course, I was a bit surprised, but in my view, that…”
That?
He opened his mouth after carefully choosing his words.

“It was just an accident.”
An accident where the distance between their faces suddenly became too close, and she bumped her lips while turning her head.
Not only between her and Teacher Bong, but it could also happen to anyone if they were careless in a crowded space.
“Heh, you bumped your lips, and you say it’s not a kiss, but an accident?”
“A kiss?”
He raised his eyebrows as if he were offended.
“If it’s not a kiss? Soft, squishy, and moist thing.”
Ugh. Gyo Hwan, who felt a migraine, pressed his temples with his fingers and spoke.
“Don’t describe it. For me, it was nothing more than a light peck.”
What? A light peck?

“As you know, I am a married man, so it wasn’t my first time.”
Gyo Hwan, who had been pressing his temples, raised one eyebrow.
“Of course, I wouldn’t be your first either, would I?”
Although she said it was her first time going to a hotel with a man. But a kiss too?
“No, it’s not my first time either.”
The man who became a father at twentyseven couldn’t possibly understand how she felt, having never even had a single kiss.
“It’s the fiftyeighth time. The fiftyeighth time!”
Heh, the fiftyeighth time?
The man who was pushed from what he thought was her first, to the fiftyeighth place in an instant, frowned.
“How old were you when you had your first kiss to make it the fiftyeighth time? You didn’t count pecks with your dad or uncle, did you?”

What was even funnier, was why was she counting them, knowing how many times it had been?
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
