The words he used for his subordinates were arrogant, repeatedly being overly polite, but he also treated them well.
Like a shameless son of a gun.
So, Seontae could only silently curse while looking at Sajun’s back like the sun.
After taking a shower and changing into comfortable clothes, Taehee decided to meet Sajun again.
Not at Sajun’s bedroom, where they always met by crossing the terrace, but in front of the house.
Wearing a loose cropped hoodie and leggings, when they went out, Sajun was already there.
Under the illuminated streetlamp, Sajun standing there looked so cool that Taehee’s heart tightened.
Who else’s lover looked so good?
Stopping for a moment and standing still, Taehee silently absorbed Sajun’s appearance.
Moist bangs that were wetly clinging, a bomber jacket with training shorts, a well-maintained physique like a model. A handsome face that looked atmospheric under the faint light.
Thinking that there wasn’t much time left to see that figure, water gushed out from Taehee’s eyes.
But Taehee quickly wiped away the bitter expression and approached confidently.
“Kang Sajun, are you smoking again?”
Sajun turned his body slightly.
“You know I quit.”
“You smoked earlier.”
Only then did Sajun shrug his broad shoulders.
“That’s just a petty revenge. I can’t be blatantly rude to you because you threw a cushion at me.”
“So, you’re smoking again and being blatantly rude?”
“Isn’t that allowed?”
The pitch-black eyes looking down seemed as if they were coaxing for praise.
So, Taehee willingly decided to praise him.
“No, it’s allowed. You did great.”
After that, Taehee playfully punched Sajun.
Sajun looked a bit surprised at Taehee’s spontaneous action.
“Why? Can’t I give you a fist bump?”
When Taehee asked calmly, Sajun also smirked and replied in a low voice.
Anything goes for Min Taehee.
In this way, the two of them started walking through the neighborhood side by side.
It was also the first evening walk they tried together after becoming adults.
Of course, Taehee had her own reasons for suggesting an evening stroll tonight.
In a certain alley in the neighborhood, Taehee stopped.
Facing Sajun, she checked her wristwatch.
7:30 PM, the time when Min Yeonseo would finish exercising and return home.
At the end of the path beyond Sajun’s shoulder, a small and slender silhouette appeared.
Only then did Taehee look up at Sajun and speak.
“Can I use you right now?”
“As much as you want.”
Taehee turned her gaze again to the silhouette approaching.
As Min Yeonseo became clearer, memories from a long time ago overlapped vividly.
The terrace sliding door that was always open even in winter, overlooking Yeonseo in a lovely way, Min Seontae wearing a fist bump and sitting happily, looking at Yeonseo with a happy smile, the woman who felt content while watching those women.
It was a few years later that Taehee realized it was all part of Yeonseo’s plan to turn her inside out.
Yeonseo, it’s your turn now.
Yeonseo, who noticed the two, stopped walking.
Only then did Taehee look up at Sajun again.
“Kang Sajun.”
In Sajun’s black eyes illuminated by the streetlamp, stars twinkled.
The eyes I like, the person I like.
“Can you hug me for a moment?”
Instead of answering, Sajun slowly lowered the zipper of his windbreaker.
Without asking anything, he opened the jacket and embraced Taehee into his arms.
It was a warm and cozy embrace, enough to make tears well up.
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.
