“‘You should do the dating too.’”
Due to that suggestion from Kang Sajun, Taehui’s routine, which had been regular for 5 years, was becoming distorted.
It had already been a week.
Unable to focus on work, spending time daydreaming aimlessly.
Kang Sajun, who left with the words to think about it, hadn’t contacted since.
Today, lying on the desk and hitting her forehead, Taehui muttered softly.
“…I should have rejected it right away.”
But she didn’t.
Kang Sajun, who was so affectionate that day, was too charming, and her heart was swayed in confusion.
So she should reject him now.
She knew it too well, but couldn’t bring herself to say it over the phone or message.
Taehui had been hesitating for a week.
Writing and erasing messages multiple times, hesitating to press the send button.
Reason urged her to call and say it now, instinct sweetly whispered to just go for it.
Ultimately, Taehui was barely holding onto her wavering reason.
If Kang Sajun acts unreasonably affectionate again, she might completely fall for him.
So, she can’t meet Kang Sajun to reject him.
Through phone, or message, and it must be today.
Suddenly getting up, Taehui grabbed her phone.
[I’m rejecting that proposal of yours. I’ve thought about it, and it just doesn’t seem right.]
Typing the message to Sajun, Taehui murmured determinedly.
“Send it casually, as if it’s not a big deal, as if you don’t care.”
But this time, too, her fingers couldn’t press the send button.
Putting down the phone, Taehui pulled her hair in frustration.
“You fool, why can’t you send it. Why can’t you press it.”
She sighed heavily at the desk and noticed it was thirty minutes past the end of work.
At the company’s front gate, some female colleagues and unknown women were gathered.
“Is that sports car, the one actor Nam Taehyun drives, worth millions?”
“I don’t even notice cars. That man looks even better than Nam Taehyun. Is there a camera around?”
“Doesn’t seem like there’s a camera. But waiting there, does he know someone from our company?”
Curious, Taehui stopped and followed the gazes of the female colleagues.
The summer sun was long.
The afternoon sunlight stretched and poured fantastically onto the sleek, bright red sports car.
But the man leaning casually against the car was more fantastic.
Tall stature, jet-black hair, black sunglasses, simple black knit and slacks.
From head to toe, the man was in all black.
Yet, his fist-sized face under the sunglasses and the sneakers exposing a bit of his shinbones were as white as snow.
A fantastic contrast of black and white.
Even the usually indifferent Taehui admired the man who casually lowered his sunglasses to his nose.
The moment the man’s black eyes turned to her, Taehui’s mouth opened slightly.
“……!”
She watched dazedly as the man slowly walked towards her.
It was definitely Kang Sajun, unless her eyes were deceiving.
Sajun, stopping in front of her, tapped his wristwatch and spoke indifferently.
“You said you always leave on time, but today you’re 30 minutes late.”
Unable to say it’s because of him, Taehui replied bluntly.
“…Busy with work. But why are you here?”
“For you. Came to pick you up.”
Taehui’s eyes widened in shock at Sajun’s unbelievable words.
Kang Sajun had never voluntarily come to her company before.
She had sometimes wished for such a miracle, but it never happened.
He never contacted first, didn’t reply, and never came to pick her up from the company.
It was one of the unspoken rules established between them over time.
But today, Kang Sajun casually broke another rule between them, following a kiss.
Especially today, at this critical moment when her heart was unsettled.
As Taehui pondered over this situation, Sajun whispered in her ear.
“But Min Taehui, I dressed as neatly as possible today, why are people staring?”
Taehui wanted to scream at his soft breath tickling her ear.
Just say it, why whisper in the ear, why are you like this.
Covering the ear where Sajun’s breath had touched, Taehui quickly stepped back.
“It’s not your clothes that stand out, it’s your face and physique.”
“Am I not good right now?”
Sajun, asking for her opinion with a serious expression, looked like a big, obedient dog.
As if Taehui was his master.
Finding that feeling not unpleasant, Taehui sighed as if in response.
“Well, you’re neater than usual.”
It was evident he tried to dress neatly for the workers’ leaving time.
Not just the attire, but he also removed all accessories, except for one piercing, from his ears, neck, and arms.
Disliking the attention, Sajun grumbled, raising his sunglasses back onto his nose.
“This is why I become nocturnal.”
Anyway, she grumbled inwardly, disliking people. Making eye contact with a female colleague, she knew tomorrow would be tiring. Tiring if a friend, tiring if a lover.
But she didn’t particularly want to run away or hide Kang Sajun. Having a great friend is a skill.
“But why did you come to pick me up?”
“Because I wanted to see Min Taehui?”
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
