Unlike Taehee, Sajun’s answer seemed indifferent.
“So cute, right?”
“I don’t know.”
“Look again. It’s behind us.”
“I’m not interested in kids. I don’t like them.”
Although he knew that well, Taehee strangely wanted to insist.
“But still, look again. They’re angels who cleanse the worldly dirt from time to time and stimulate innocence, you know?”
“I don’t like it.”
But once again, the response was a clean refusal.
“Kang Sajun, I’m really curious about something.”

Changing the topic, Taehee finally got Sajun’s attention.
“What?”
“You proposed to me, right?”
The eyes that had been indifferent to the word ‘marriage’ sparkled like the eyes of the baby she had just seen.
At times like this, Sajun, the genius or whatever, seemed like a child.
“Does that plan include having a child?”
She was curious about Sajun’s feelings and wanted to ask.
It was one of the procedures to check for the possibility of pregnancy, especially in case of a positive pregnancy test.
“No.”
Without a hint of hesitation, Taehee felt a strange disappointment.
“If you truly love me, this is still something to consider carefully.”

“Why?”
“Well, even living alone is annoying, and why would I have a child? Life will be dreadful.”
Taehee had to bite her lips hard to hold back her desire to question why he proposed marriage if he felt that way.
Unaware, Sajun calmly continued, stabbing at his innocent shaved ice with a spoon.
“I don’t want anything interfering between you and me, and I don’t have the confidence to be a dad, considering my learned skill is theft.”
“…”
“Grandfather and Chairman Kang are the same. I don’t think I’m any different. Blood can’t be deceived.”
Unable to find words compelling enough to rebut, Taehee remained silent.
Sajun, resting his arm on the table and chin on his hand, turned his gaze towards her at an angle.
With a flower-like smile that matched that of a boyfriend in a typical relationship, even the mother who had just carried the baby looked envious.

Disregarding those glances, Sajun spoke.
“We’re being careful, so don’t worry about strange concerns. Trust in the power of medicine with a 99.9 percent probability.”
As if saying, ‘I understand what you’re worrying about,’ and reassuring her to be at ease, he spoke with a reassuring expression.
However, Taehee couldn’t feel reassured.
The 99.9 percent probability had hit a crisis. If that probability were to ridiculously fail, Kang Sajun would truly be a beast and a monster.
“But still, if it happens, what will you do?”
Finally, Sajun’s light laughter turned serious as he looked at Taehee.
“Min Taehee, why are you suddenly asking such a thing?”
“It’s a game trending among employees these days. Imagine what you would do in such a situation. It’s fun to give ridiculous answers. Don’t you think so?”
“I find it not fun.”

“I find it fun. So, answer me. If we have a child, what would you do?”
At Taehee’s words, Sajun furrowed his eyebrows and let out a deep sigh.
As if it were dreadful just to imagine. Why was that sigh so irritating?
“Responsibility must be taken.”
Taehee waited for Sajun’s next answer, but that was all he said.
“I didn’t expect to hear from you.”
Seontaek stared at Suntae with a cold gaze, who was sitting arrogantly.
It took a month.
To learn how the former Min Taehee lived, what kind of person Min Seontaek, the author, was, and also to learn about Kang Sajun.
He laughed so much that it seemed absurd, and he was angry again.

Min Taehee, who became friends with Kang Sajun to receive living expenses from him.
Kang Sajun, who treated her like his own servant under the pretext of friendship and took advantage of her.
Using his wife, Song Hyun, to secure his position as Vice President and trying to use his daughter to maintain that position, Min Seontaek.
Seven years later, Jehyeon could finally understand.
Taehee’s words about not being normal friends, about their relationship being more like a contractual agreement between employer and employee than a friendship. Why Taehee clung to tutoring and part-time jobs, even reducing her sleep time.
Min Seontae, who had been cold to Taehee and her daughter, willingly handed me a whopping 300 million won.
Motivated by greed to somehow attach my daughter to the illegitimate child of the Seo family.
So, Taehee found herself in a situation where she became like the filial daughter Sim Cheong, against her will.
For the sake of regaining the land and house that her loving mother desperately wanted, she was being sold to Sajun.
Suppressing the rising curses with a gulp, Jehyeon spoke up.
“I’ve done a background check on Min Seontae.”

At the mention of a background check, the leisurely smile disappeared in an instant.
Nevertheless, Jehyeon casually continued speaking.
“I heard you’re using Taehee to keep the precarious position of the Vice President and forcing her to marry your friend Sajun. Is that true?”
“It’s quite an irritating thing to say. We’re dating and planning to get married because we like each other. What do you know!”
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
