So, who asked you to date? Get off the car quickly.
As she was about to retort, a thin finger approached stealthily and lightly touched Jehyun’s thigh.
In the faint darkness, a gleam flowed in the jet-black eyes looking at him.
“So, I think spending just one night is okay. If it’s with you, Oppa.”
One night? Is she suggesting a one-night stand?
“An adult man like you, Oppa, is my ideal type.”
She used to like Gang Sajun so much.
Feeling so bewildered, Jehyun remained silent. However, when Yeonseo boldly approached him, placing her hand on his thigh, Jehyun, with a stern expression, brushed it away.
Startled, Yeonseo, with rabbit eyes, looked at Jehyun whether he was watching or not. Jehyun, who got off the car, turned around the hood.
Opening the car door on Yeonseo’s side, he spoke coldly.
“It’s better for you to get off by yourself before I pull you down.”
With those words, Yeonseo promptly got off the car.
But this time, she didn’t immediately go in.
Standing in front of Jehyun, she looked up at him with eyes filled with resentment.
“Oppa, you’re really mean. How can you treat my pure intentions like that… Ugh.”
Jehyun looked down at her tear-stained face indifferently.
If the receiver doesn’t feel kindness, then it’s not kindness; it’s a nuisance.
“Hey, Miss Min Yeonseo.”
With dewy eyes, she subtly looked up at Jehyun again.
“I’m serious. You’re a bad guy to that unnuna, Mintaehee.”
Thinking of Mintaehee, it felt like a corner of his heart was being torn apart again.
“But playing around with an illegitimate sister who likes me, that’s not even trash.”
Now Jehyun seemed to understand why Gang Sajun had been harsh to this small and delicate girl.
It was a style of being oblivious and impervious.
“Thank you for your father’s contact information. So let’s not see each other again.”
With that, Jehyun got back into the passenger seat.
Standing, Yeonseo stared at the car with resentment and then dialed the chauffeur company again.
It was the congested morning commute time, and both the car driven by Gang Sajun and Gang Sajun himself were drawing attention, full of distracting elements.
So, when Taehee said she would take the subway alone, Sajun, agreeing, reluctantly followed her early in the morning.
For this reason, today’s commute for Taehee became Sajun’s second subway experience. The moment they squeezed into the subway involuntarily, Sajun, with surprised eyes, uttered a sound as if chewing something.
“Crazy.”
From Sajun’s perspective, it was indeed a crazy situation. However, for Korean office workers, including Taehee, it was just an everyday occurrence.
Sajun, still not fully composed, heard Taehee say while suppressing laughter, “Welcome to the subway from hell.”
“I admit it’s the subway from hell.”
With a heavy sigh, Sajun readily admitted.
“Sajun, get off at the next station and go to the hotel. I’ll manage to get to work alone.”
Of course, the situation wouldn’t be much different when he gets off.
However, if he separates and goes alone, it seemed like a piece of cake for Sajun.
With an additional head, visibility was possible; with steel-like biceps and solid shoulders, he wouldn’t be pushed around; with those strong thighs, he could power through.
But Sajun immediately frowned.
“Are you telling me to comfortably abandon you and go alone in this situation?”
“Did I say that thinking of you?”
“Wow, Mintaehee. You’re turning me into such a trash.”
“…….”
“What kind of man leaves his woman and runs away saying he’ll live alone?”
Due to Sajun’s intense reaction, Taehee, feeling awkward, remained silent.
Even in this awkward situation, her heart fluttered a bit at the words “my woman.”
“Mintaehee.”
Sajun called Taehee in a subdued tone.
“I’ll protect you on this subway from hell.”
Taehee couldn’t help but laugh out loud at Sajun’s cheesy line, which seemed like something a hero of justice would say.
In this crowded subway, Sajun, as usual, exerted his biceps to secure a position after taking up one side of the subway’s edge wall.
After leaning Taehee against the wall with both arms, he resisted the surging crowd and truly protected her.
Thinking that this comfortable commute was the first, Taehee said, “Sajun, if I were to go back to my childhood, I’d write about Korean office workers instead of the respected historical figure, Shin Saimdang.”
“…….”
“Isn’t it amazing? Office workers who work so diligently, commuting fiercely, leading South Korea.”
“…….”
Receiving no response, when Taehee looked up, Sajun’s expression was deep in thought.
“Sajun, what are you thinking so seriously?”
When Taehee poked his firm chest with her fingertip, only then did Sajun lower his gaze.
“Because I wondered if I could live in the subway.”
“Stop talking nonsense.”
Whenever Sajun made unnecessary remarks, Taehee occasionally thought such things.
It seems like my precious Doryeondi doesn’t understand the ways of the world. It’s probably because of oneself and Jinwon that they made him so ignorant of the ways of the world.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
