This indifferent care, Sajun’s way of expressing it, which seemed unable to properly convey, felt like it was making her strong resentment turn soft.
“Are you not disgusted with me, Sajun? Why are you treating me so well?”
“Well, I hate you to death, but I still want to treat you well again.”
“So why?”
“If I tell you the reason, can you handle it?”
Taehee, in fact, couldn’t gauge.
Whether she could handle what he was going to say or not. Whether she, carrying our child, could handle you.
“First, eat, Min Taehee.”
“…I won’t eat. I won’t even if I die.”
The air tightened instantly.
After a moment of silence, Sajun opened his mouth.
“Then, I guess I’ll have to throw it away.”
This was Sajun’s method of persuading the stubborn Taehee who refused to eat.
But today, she wouldn’t back down. I guess I won’t give in to such macarons.
“Yeah, throw it away.”
As she spoke, a gurgling sound came from her stomach.
I’m going crazy.
Sajun laughed at the bewildered Taehee, who didn’t know what to do with her flushed face.
The air, which had been tense to the point of snapping, instantly loosened.
Sajun’s gaze towards Taehee, who bit her lower lip and suppressed embarrassment, was warm.
“Min Taehee, would you eat if I kneel down and beg?”
“Why would you?”
“Just because, I want to see you eat well.”
“……. ”
“I’ll go after seeing you eat, at least for today.”
Whether he meant he’d go today and come back tomorrow or something else, it was truly stubborn.
Fine, I’ll see you just this once because I’m really hungry.
Instead of replying, Taehee reached out and grabbed the most appetizing macaron.
Her mind was so complicated that she didn’t even want spicy food.
Having eaten nothing and having no desire to eat.
The macarons from Zeus Hotel, which she used to love, she wondered if she could eat them, so she added a quick order and had them delivered.
But as soon as she took a bite, she rushed to the bathroom.
Currently, Taehee was enduring each day with nutritional supplements and soup prescribed by the hospital.
Although her stomach was hungry, there was a strange phenomenon of refusing food.
However, right now, she felt like she could eat this macaron.
Even though she was extremely hungry, saliva strangely gathered in her mouth.
She couldn’t afford to run to the bathroom blocking her mouth in front of Sajun.
With such concerns, she cautiously took a bite, and at that moment, Taehee let out a small moan.
Truly, it was delicious enough to bring tears to her eyes.
The nerves that sharply twinged at the meltingly sweet taste, the intensely surging emotions, dulled and subsided.
Taking one down in an instant, she picked up another macaron of a different color without looking at Sajun and said.
“Come pick me up after work.”
After enduring harshly to the end, after pushing forcefully to the end, after receiving a confession of love, she planned to say it after that.
However, even though she said such mean things, she once again yielded to Sajun’s gaze and expression, who watched her happily eating macarons.
That’s why I hate that I love him even more.
“Did you come because you have something to say?”
“……. ”
“Say you don’t if you don’t like it.”
“I don’t dislike it. I’ll come pick you up.”
Sajun, who quickly responded, smiled faintly.
The smile, which she hadn’t seen in a long time, made her heart pleasantly throb.
So Taehee, with a fresh expression, thought while chewing on the macaron.
It seems like our baby likes Dad a lot.
With Sajun in front of her, indigestion, oddly, didn’t come up, and she was able to enjoy eating after a long time.
“You’re really good at matching food combinations. That’s why I keep wanting to come and eat.”
Hyeseok, who was preparing green onions, looked at Suntae with an incredulous expression.
Suntae, who went straight to Hyeseok’s house after work, was soothing his overeaten stomach with plum tea until dinner.
And not on the living room sofa but at the dining table, sitting across from Hyeseok who was handling green onions.
Despite deciding to put everything down and leave without any lingering attachments, she wanted to kick Suntae out right now.
However, the daughter said so. Min Suntae should act sweetly until he leaves Ilsan, saying that she will take care of everything and deceive her enough to turn her world upside down.
It wasn’t a wrong word. What’s there to be afraid of once you’ve decided to leave?
Even though she had broken up with Sajun, she didn’t know why Suntae was still treating her well, but she decided not to take it for granted.
So, today as well, Hyeseok endured and shyly said to Suntae:
“I’m glad you like the food. But your credit card limit is already used up…….”
“Ten million won already?”
Suntae’s eyes gleamed.
It was a look that asked what she bought to spend it all.
“I bought this because it looked pretty when I went shopping with Jaesun unni. But I think I bought it for no reason. Should I return the card now?”
Male lead is a Divorced Husband
She said to him: “Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change it!”
Liu Changning transmigrated into a female cannon fodder character in a female-dominant novel.
After reading the first half of the novel’s plot, the first thing she did upon transmigration was to divorce the Pan Jinlian-style male protagonist she had just married.
She indulged herself, pretending to be ugly and poor.
But as time passed, the way that man looked at her became more and more unusual…
Liu Changning was dumbfounded: Tell me, what makes you like me? I’ll change!
――
This lifetime, Pei Yuanshao was rejected by the same woman twice!
The first time, she drove him away. Forced by the situation, he endured the waves of anger in his heart, yielding and humbling himself.
That person lay slanted on a rocking chair, her sallow face emotionless: “If you don’t want a divorce, go cook!”
Pei Yuanshao’s face was dark and gloomy: “You!”
The second time, after the crisis in Jinling City was resolved, the new emperor sent someone to pick him up. He turned around, stammering: “I… I have to go. If you keep me…”
That person lay on the kang bed, her back to him, as if she had long anticipated this day, crisp and clear: “Goodbye!”
Pei Yuanshao was so angry his fingers trembled: “You… you!”
The mission of family and country made him restrain himself, averting his eyes and turning to leave this broken household.
Two years later, they met again. Seeing her ethereal face, his body shook like a sieve.
“She was originally a ‘she’!”
At the Qionglin Banquet, the top scholar of the imperial examination, a talented person with exceptional speech and conduct, all the unmarried young gentlemen from aristocratic families looked at her with shy and timid eyes.
The peerless imperial official Pei Yuanshao felt the anger in his heart erupt. He pointed at the woman surrounded by the crowd at the Qionglin Banquet, his thin lips slightly curled: “Little sister, I wants that person to be the wife-master of my Mingde Prince Manor.”
