“That’s why I told you not to.”
“How can I resist what I want to do?”
At his serious question, Tae Yeon couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
“Still, you should have resisted a bit. I was almost recovered, but now you’re sick.”
“That’s good.”
“What?”
Tae Yeon was puzzled, not understanding why he was happy.
“I was really worried seeing Jin Tae Yeon sick. I wished I was the one sick instead. I’m glad it turned out this way.”
“That’s nonsense.”
Despite her fever, Tae Yeon sighed softly, seeing Do Jun express happiness in his illness.
“When Dr. Kim came earlier, you should have at least gotten an IV.”
“That’s okay. I just need to take medicine.”
Do Jun sat up, leaning against the bed head, seemingly ready to take his medicine.
Watching Do Jun tear open the medicine packet, Tae Yeon remembered something he had said.
“Do Jun, do you want me to hold your hand?”
He chuckled softly.
“Didn’t Chairman Cha always hold your hand when you took medicine because you didn’t like it?”
“That’s true.”
Tae Yeon gently held Do Jun’s free hand. Do Jun’s eyebrows twitched slightly.
“Eat it quickly now. I’ll stay like this until you’re done.”
Watching Tae Yeon’s innocent face, Do Jun smiled mischievously.
“No matter how old I get, I just can’t stand taking medicine.”
“But you still have to take it. That’s how you’ll get better.”
“I don’t want to.”
“What?”
Do Jun, seemingly intent on not taking the medicine, started to put it back into the bag.
“Do Jun?”
Tae Yeon, getting anxious, stopped Do Jun as he tried to place the medicine bag on the bedside drawer.
“You need to take it even if you don’t like it. Your body is burning up.”
“Will you feed it to me?”
“What?”
Tae Yeon’s light brown pupils trembled.
“Last night, I fed it to you directly.”
As he spoke, Do Jun slowly ran his tongue over his lower lip.
Tae Yeon’s gaze inadvertently landed on Do Jun’s lips before darting away.
“That was because I wasn’t fully conscious…”
“Then I guess I’ll wait until I’m in that state too.”
“What?”
Do Jun casually tossed the medicine bag onto the drawer, as if he really wasn’t going to take it.
“No, wait a moment.”
Tae Yeon reached for the medicine bag but was blocked by Do Jun’s strong arm.
Determined, Tae Yeon climbed onto him.
“…”
She intended to reach over Do Jun’s legs to grab the medicine bag on the drawer.
Unfortunately, she ended up stopping atop Do Jun’s body.
“Do Jun?”
Just a little stretch away from the bag, Tae Yeon found herself stuck.
Their bodies were again closely pressed, only a blanket between them.
“I came here to get the medicine.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes. Let me just reach over.”
But Do Jun, holding Tae Yeon’s waist with both hands, seemed to have no intention of letting her go.
Tae Yeon looked as if she might burst into tears any moment.
“Do Jun, if you don’t like the bitter taste of the medicine, should I get some chocolate?”
Do Jun shook his head, seemingly uninterested.
“Then how about candy? Eating something sweet helps get rid of the bitterness quickly.”
Do Jun pondered for a moment but shrugged indifferently at the idea of candy.
Tae Yeon, growing desperate, blurted out quickly.
“Do Jun, I’ll do whatever you want.”
“Really?”
“Yes, so please take your medicine first.”
The corners of Do Jun’s mouth twitched slightly.
He was obviously elated but tried to maintain a composed expression.
“Can you keep that promise?”
“If you take all your medicine.”
“Alright then.”
Do Jun stretched out his arm to retrieve the torn medicine bag.
It contained four pills.
Do Jun lifted one of Tae Yeon’s hands and placed a pill on it.
“For each pill…”
“What?”
Do Jun picked up a small pill and put it in his mouth.
After swallowing the pill with water, Do Jun slightly grimaced.
“Here’s another one…”
However, instead of taking the next pill, Do Jun immediately captured Tae Yeon’s lips.
‘Huh? Why is he kissing me instead of taking the medicine…’
The brief contact of their lips lingered for a while before parting.
Tae Yeon stared blankly at the remaining three pills on her hand.
Then she cautiously asked.
“Do Jun, don’t tell me you’re going to kiss me for every pill you take?”
“Yes.”
Seeing his unwavering eyes, Tae Yeon slightly opened her mouth.
“Really?”
“Yeah. That’s the plan.”
Do Jun, with an innocent face, reached out his hand towards the medicine.
“Just a moment.”
Tae Yeon closed her eyes tightly and clutched the hand holding the medicine.
She had no idea how many times they had kissed just today.
There were still three pills left, which meant at least three more kisses.
Tae Yeon bit her lip and cautiously suggested.
“I know a really delicious chocolate. How about trying that instead…”
Without fully listening to Tae Yeon, Do Jun teasingly interrupted.
“To me, you’re the tastiest.”
Tae Yeon’s mouth opened helplessly.
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.
