Fortunately, Mundayul was quickly transferred to a regular ward. She woke up quickly in the recovery room after leaving the operating room, and it didn’t take long for her to move to a regular ward.
“Don’t worry! Let’s move her to a single room.”
“After recovering a bit in a double room, you can move to a six-person room.”
“Oh my! It’s comfortable for the person taking care of Dayul, comfortable for us to watch Dayul, and our son too! Let’s put Dayul in a single room without being stubborn.”
It was a victory for our parents.
After hearing the details of the accident, Mundayul’s parents, even after waking up, persuaded us to focus on treatment in a quiet environment to avoid discomfort from people.
“Yes, let’s do that. Auntie.”
When even I was convinced, the silent aunt nodded and looked at Mundayul’s face, who had fallen asleep under the influence of painkillers.
On the day Mundayul moved to a regular ward, I barely moved my unsteady feet to head to the office.
“Manager Moon, are you okay?”
As soon as I appeared in the office, Researcher Lee Kyung-hoon rushed over. He seemed very anxious.
“Yes. She was moved to a regular ward today. Thank you for your concern.”
“Of course… Haa. I’m really relieved.”
I smiled at him with effort and then took my seat.
“Uh… Is Mr. Baek-inha under police investigation?”
“Yes. He is under investigation without detention.”
“Mr. Ji, it must be tough for you in various ways.”
Knowing that his question wasn’t just out of curiosity, I smiled faintly.
My team members were very considerate. They handled the complex reports for the days I went back and forth between the hospital and the police station, and they postponed or canceled all non-urgent business trips.
I received a message today saying that Mundayul had eaten solid food. I had to leave work a little earlier today, even if it was a bit rushed, to comb Mundayul’s hair.
As I stared at the monitor, someone’s voice came from behind me.
“Researcher Ji Seojun. Can you spare a moment for me?”
It was the head of the Travel Plan Team who came just before lunch. The team leader took me to a quiet restaurant near the company.
“Let’s eat first. You’re busy these days. You should eat well, especially at times like this.”
That’s how the quiet meal started and ended with me not being able to eat half of my rice and putting down my spoon.
“Adult men can’t finish that either?”
“I’m sorry.”
“You don’t have to apologize… I talked to Manager Moon. But even so, she seems to have recovered enough to make a phone call.”
“That’s fortunate.”
The Travel Plan Team must be in chaos. The team leader’s face was locked in fatigue. Looking at me, the team leader, who opened his mouth with difficulty, sipped water from his cup with a bitter smile, and his face passed by with a sense of emptiness and betrayal.
“Sometimes moments like this come in life. When the person you believed in seems so different that you question if they are the same person you knew. Whether what I believed and how I saw that person was truly what I wanted… I also feel pathetic and bitter like this, but how much more difficult must it be for Ms. Dayul.”
Team leader, who quietly placed the water cup on the table, let out a small sigh.
“Perhaps, the heart hurts more than the body. Researcher Ji Seojun has been a great support. Of course, she will manage well on her own.”
“No.”
“Yes?”
“I don’t know if I’m doing well… I brought up thoughts that I had tucked away in a corner of my mind since I started dating Mundayul.”
“It was tough because of me. Dayul. She had to hear bad things and endure warm criticisms just because of me. I ignored the guilt that kept arising as we dated. And, in the end…”
“Mr. Ji Seo.”
“In the end, Dayul got hurt. I can’t guarantee that this won’t happen again in the future. I promised to protect her, but there were more times when I couldn’t keep that promise. I…”
Words lingering in the mouth. The words were despair to me. The self-loathing that I never wanted to bring up burst out, pushed by those words.
“I don’t know if I should continue to stay by Mundayul’s side.”
The words spoken out loud became a dagger, sharply stabbing my heart. The pain was so intense that I could hardly breathe, engulfed in agony throughout my body.
“How can I know?”
The team leader, who silently watched me, smiled gently.
“I don’t know if Ji Seojun has the right to be by Manager Moon’s side or not. Just…”
She took something out of her bag and placed it on the table in front of me.
“At least I’m sure about this one thing.”
What the team leader handed me was colorful envelopes.
“Ji Seojun, it seems like it’ll be a big problem if you’re not by Manager Moon’s side. With so much suffering, do you have the confidence to let her go?”
I nodded in response to the team leader’s question.
“Then you have to endure it somehow. You have to do your best by her side. Until Manager Moon pushes you away. If it’s not for that reason, don’t give up.”
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.
