Why had I worried so much until now? As always, the worries I had before I tried it were the most pointless.
I liked my friend Ji Seo Joon, but I had no idea that I would like my boyfriend Ji Seo Joon even more.
On the way to work. Ji Seo Joon, who drove to my house early in the morning to take me to work, was as handsome as always today.
“You can walk to the company, so why do you bother coming all this way to pick me up. Don’t do this next time. You’re tired.”
“It’s hard to believe that when you say it, but you enjoy it so much……”
Did I enjoy it too much?
Of course, it was great not to have to ride the crowded bus on my way to work, but it was a waste in many ways for Ji Seo Joon, who lives near the company, to come to my house to pick me up.
“Just carpool me every now and then.”
Ji Seo Joon laughed softly and nodded his head.
“What are you doing after work today?”
“I have to go to the provincial research institute today, so I think I’ll be back in Seoul a little late?”
Damn. I had wanted to have dinner together at least……
“Just bear with it a bit even if you want to see me.”
Ji Seo Joon, who took my hand that was holding the bag, pressed his lips to the back of my hand.
“What, what is this……”
Embarrassed, I tried to quickly pull my hand away from Ji Seo Joon’s, but he wrapped his fingers around mine and held on tightly, and I ended up trapped in Ji Seo Joon’s hand again.
“Is it always like this?”
“What is?”
“I thought my impatience would disappear after I started dating, so why is it getting worse?”
Ji Seo Joon kept his eyes on the road ahead.
“What are you impatient about?”
“Even when we’re together, I want to see you, and even when I’m looking at you, I want to see you.”
My mouth fell open without my realization. Was the person next to me really Ji Seo Joon? I couldn’t believe Ji Seo Joon was saying such things……
“Who are you?”
Ji Seo Joon frowned at my words.
“It doesn’t seem like the Ji Seo Joon I know?”
I caressed Ji Seo Joon’s jawline with my free hand.
“He’s not wearing a mask…”
At my words, Ji Seo Joon sighed deeply, giving me a look of incredulity, and then swiftly turned his gaze forward.
“I’m more affectionate than you think. Although my expression may be a bit clumsy, I try hard.”
Even when Ji Seo Joon was sulking, I knew very well that he was a person who took care of others and was full of affection.
“Boyfriend Ji Seo Joon, not friend Ji Seo Joon, will be a bit different from the me you knew.”
At Ji Seo Joon’s words, my heart fluttered. A floating feeling. Even the air suddenly felt sweet.
“I’m looking forward to it.”
At my words, Ji Seo Joon chuckled and kissed my hand again.
“Yes.”
The power of love is tremendous. I felt as if all my cells were activated. Drinking 50 cups of coffee seemed to have the same effect. I didn’t know I was tired while staring at the monitor at work.
“Deputy Moon. If what you’re doing is okay, could you take a look at me for a moment?”
“Huh? Yes!”
No matter how invincible due to the awakening of the love cells that didn’t know fatigue, the call of the team leader made me nervous.
“Coffee?”
“I’ll do it.”
“No, it’s okay. I was going to make mine anyway.”
We each held a cup of coffee in our hands and entered the empty meeting room.
“Deputy Moon. Please, have a seat.”
I sat straight in the chair opposite to the team leader.
“I don’t have anything special to say today… Um. There’s nothing special, right?”
At the team leader’s words, I was taken aback, but quickly regained my composure and forced a smile.
“Of course. There’s nothing special. Haha.”
Afraid that my awkwardness would be noticed by the team leader, I buried my face in the cup and gulped down the coffee.
“Well, that’s a relief. Ah! We’ve decided on the person going to Australia.”
“Really?”
“A lot of people applied because it’s an unusual opportunity.”
“That’s good.”
“Aren’t you disappointed?”
I shook my head vigorously at the team leader’s words. If I said I wasn’t disappointed at all, that would be a lie, but how could I go anywhere leaving Ji Seo Joon behind.
When I declined the offer, Ji Seo Joon and I were on a grace period, but we were just friends.
I felt bitter thinking that I had kicked away a good opportunity when I told the team leader I wouldn’t go, but now I wanted to compliment my past self.
“Yes. I’m not disappointed. I should learn to work hard under the team leader here and be promoted in a few years.”
“You don’t have to flatter.”
“It’s not flattery.”
As I clenched my fist and spoke firmly, the team leader chuckled and raised his coffeefilled mug.
“Do you know that people in the company have been chattering about Deputy Moon these days?”
“Ah. Yes…”
“People in the company tend to take an interest in others’ affairs and love to talk about them.”
“Yes. I’m aware.”
“Don’t worry too much, and if Deputy Moon continues to work hard as you have been doing, they’ll forget it soon enough.”
I hadn’t expected the team leader, who was usually a bit brusque, to say something like this.
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.”
