With an indignant look, Heegu glared at his grandson.
How dare he utter such immature words, as if there were no sense of purpose in life.
What am I supposed to do with someone who finds joy in just being alive?
“Still, we occasionally go to the movies and go on drives. We’ve tried tteokbokki, popcorn, sweet café coffee with lettuce wraps. What if I, instead of Sajun, eat steak, chicken breast, and supplements for the rest of my life?”
Watching Taehee conclude her words with a soft laugh, Heegu thought, it would be nice to have such a person as mine.
But that was all.
Rejected by my biological mother, ignored by my biological father, cursed by my stepmother.
My grandson was a pitiful child who never received genuine love even once while growing up alone.
Heegu loved his grandson, but at that time, he was too busy to express that love. It was always regrettable and sorry. So, he hoped that his grandson and granddaughter-in-law would be a child who received love and grew up in a complete family, without any wrinkles. He wished for kindness rather than stubbornness, protection rather than independence, and a cheerful and bright personality rather than quick situational judgment. That way, it seemed like they could make his grandson laugh and bring him happiness. Unfortunately, Min Taehee, the one his grandson brought, lacked that one thing. Just then, the doors opened on both sides, and a fully set table entered the room.
“Hurry and eat since you must be hungry.”
Even during the meal, the conversation between Heegu and Taehee did not cease. It revolved around the not too light but not too heavy topic of Kang Sajun.

Sajun, the party concerned, was being treated like a transparent person, silently holding his ground.
Taehee led the conversation, and although she pretended not to be curious, Heegu couldn’t resist asking questions in the end.
As expected, Min Taehee was strong in practical situations.
However, despite her calm expression, a small fist clenched tightly under the table.
He had told her she could just stay silent, so why?
Although he could end this situation if he set his mind to it, Sajun decided not to do anything.
He wanted to know why Min Taehee was acting this way.
He knew her well, despising receiving more than giving, and he hated hiding behind after giving.
If he gave last week, he needed to give back this week to soothe his conscience.
For a relationship to be perfect, give and take needed to be in perfect balance, even a hundred days into the relationship.

As his thoughts flowed in that direction, Sajun was about to let out a bitter smile.
He hated being criticized, detested losing, had a stubborn personality, and yet…
Why was he so crazy about her?
Then Sajun noticed.
Taehee was only sipping the soup without touching her chopsticks.
Her pride was certainly overwhelmingly strong. What’s the big deal if she can’t use chopsticks?
Sajun picked up the chopsticks and skillfully placed a piece of oyster sauce-covered abalone on Taehee’s rice.
Taehee looked at Sajun with surprise but said nothing.
So, Sajun moved his chopsticks diligently.
He was good at everything, but for the cute Min Taehee, who couldn’t use chopsticks, he did it all.

After the meal, Sajun told Taehee to wait in the car first. Despite offering to see her off together, she firmly refused, so he had to come alone in Sajun’s car. As soon as she got in the car, Taehee took a deep breath and closed her eyes.
“Ah, now I can finally breathe a bit.”
Heegu thought it was a good idea to listen to Sajun’s words.
He had been tense throughout the meal, and now, he finally felt a bit relaxed.
Seeing her not feeling well, even her head throbbing, it was clear she had a strong constitution.
Heegu laughed amicably throughout the meal, behaving like a neighborhood grandfather, but he was definitely not just a neighborhood grandfather.
The intense gaze that emitted a distinct light seemed to penetrate not only the surface but also the inner depths.
If Heegu didn’t genuinely like Sajun, he might have been caught in the act of engaging in a contractual relationship.
Additionally, Heegu didn’t ask Taehee anything.
They had been friends for a whopping 13 years before starting a relationship, and she was the first woman brought home by his grandson.

In that case, there should have been many questions, just like Hyesuk. However, Heegu simply observed the two silently, as if saying he would scrutinize them with his eyes rather than words.
Once again, the thought that he was indeed Sajun’s great-grandfather crossed his mind.
At that moment, the sound of the car door opening was heard.
As Sajun, sitting in the driver’s seat, raised his heavy eyelids, he silently stared at Taehee.
His eyes, filled with many words, remained silent, and he simply rolled the candy in his mouth.
The sweet and tangy smell indicated it might be lemon-flavored, but why wasn’t the candy finished?
With such thoughts, Taehee opened her mouth first.
“Did Grandpa leave well?”
“Of course, he left well.”
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.
