So, Yong-jin felt grateful and admiring toward Taehui.
But when he had to take on that request himself, it felt quite unfair and frustrating. However, he couldn’t refute, as there was nothing wrong with what Hee-gu said, and he couldn’t continue to listen in silence.
Seeing Yong-jin in dilemma, Hee-gu spoke to him.
“I’ve been out of the front line for a long time, but my actions are still being scrutinized. But it’s okay for you to meet Min Sun-tae as a businessman. So, accept a meal while you’re at it. Whether you cleverly offer something or forcefully take something away, that’s up to you.”
Nevertheless, when his son stubbornly resisted, Hee-gu played his final trump card.
“Hmm, Taehui Yang is pregnant with Sajun’s child.”
“Really?”
Yong-jin, who usually didn’t get surprised easily, showed a strong reaction this time.
“How long has it been? Is it a daughter or a son? Wait, we should hold a wedding before her belly gets too big. Have you met Taehui Yang’s parents?”
As Yong-jin, bewildered, rambled on, Hee-gu laughed it off.
“First, let’s say something to that child and ask Sajun to marry. Isn’t she like a blessing to us?”
“I liked Taehee from the beginning. Father didn’t like Taehee, right?”
“That’s right.”
With a bitter smile, Heegu decided to acknowledge it. That child made everything that was too distorted to recover possible.
So, how could one not find her beautiful? She had become a dream-like granddaughter-in-law, something he never even dreamed of.
⭐⭐⭐
Perhaps because she was pregnant.
Min Taehee, who had always been active and diligent, finally fell into laziness.
When Sajun came out after taking a shower, Taehee, who had put on a gentle classical piano, was lying on the sofa as if it were a bed.
It was a new routine for Taehee. When told to go to bed, she refused. The sofa had the unique comfort of a sofa.
As Sajun looked down at Taehee, lying on the sofa with her head hanging, he felt strange.
Should he say she looked like Snow White biting into a poisonous apple and falling into a deep sleep?
Sajun, who was sitting on the table with his back leaning against it, quietly observed Taehee, who was closing her eyes.
There were times when being with Min Taehee felt incredibly unreal.
At such times, looking at her for a long time or hugging her brought back a sense of reality.
Sajun himself was surprised by how deeply he was immersed in Taehee. He was afraid of the depth that seemed endless.
How much will you consume me?
Thanks to the thorough management by the hotel, the spacious area remained constant without any temperature changes. However, Sajun always felt the space was cold and desolate.
At first, he dismissed it vaguely, thinking it was just his imagination. But now he understood. The feeling of coldness and desolation that he felt even though he wasn’t cold and the chilly wind was blowing was a misconception that came from loneliness.
But now the space didn’t feel cold and desolate. It was probably because of Min Taehee, who was lying on the sofa, exuding a strong presence.
In the quietly floating air, Min Taehee’s soft scent was mixed.
The well-organized space, with no deviations, was scattered here and there thanks to Min Taehee’s long tail.
While rearranging the disarray, instead of irritation, laughter erupted. She had a clear presence, marking her territory.
Because of Min Taehee, the space that always felt cold and desolate now seemed to have the smell of human life.
Sajun liked that. Thanks to Min Taehee, he felt like he was living a normal and happy life.
How can I let you go?
At that moment, Taehee, who had been closing her eyes, blinked as if she had sensed something while quietly swallowing her self-deprecating laughter.
It seemed like she had just woken up from a nap when Taehee blinked slowly several times and belatedly noticed Sajun.
“Kang Sajun, I’m hungry.”
As if bothering to move a single finger was too much trouble, she only rolled her eyes to look at Sajun.
Finding even that adorable, Sajun reached out his hand unconsciously.
While tidying up her hair, still damp and unkempt, Sajun asked calmly, “What do you want to eat?”
“I don’t want to go out. Do we have lettuce and ssamjang left?”
Throughout this week, Taehee had been resolving dinner at the hotel with lettuce and ssamjang. Although they had finished the lettuce and ssamjang as of yesterday, Taehee didn’t know about it since cleaning up was Sajun’s responsibility.
To ensure that Taehee, who currently only ate lettuce and ssamjang, did not run out, Sajun had been going to the cafeteria every two or three days. However, he didn’t want to let her know about that either.
“There’s plenty left.”
“Then, I’ll have that.”
However, when Sajun didn’t move and just stared at her, Taehee also stared at him quietly.
After intertwining their gazes for a moment, Sajun opened his mouth heavily.
“Sorry, Min Taehee.”
At the sudden apology, Taehee half-sat up, meeting Sajun’s gaze with a look that seemed to question why.
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.
