Sitting in Dojun’s car, Taeyeon gazed at the rapidly changing scenery outside the window. Naturally, she thought they were going to their newlywed home, but Dojun’s car was heading to KK Department Store.
“Why here?”
“I stopped by to see clothes for tomorrow’s charity event.”
Guessing that Dojun came to buy a suit, Taeyeon followed him.
As they entered the personal shopper room, they saw racks filled with clothes.
There wasn’t a single men’s suit; all the clothes were women’s.
A personal shopper approached them, kindly smiling.
“Madam, since I don’t know your preferences, I’ve prepared popular items for now.”
“Weren’t you here to buy clothes, Dojun?”
“No.”
Dojun pointed to the rack, suggesting that she should take a closer look.
Since everyone was waiting for her choice, she couldn’t waste time here.
Taeyeon held the dress recommended by the personal shopper and entered the fitting room. It appeared to be a simple black dress at first glance, but when she tried to put it on, she noticed that the back was slightly open. Hesitating whether to wear it or not, Taeyeon unzipped it. After a while, when she came out wearing the dress, Dojun, sitting on the sofa, sent her a deep gaze.
“How is it?”
Since it was a charity event, she didn’t want to wear flashy colors that would stand out.
“It’s pretty.”
With Dojun’s prompt response, the employees in the room all looked at Taeyeon with envy.
Dojun stood up and slowly walked towards Taeyeon.
Looking at her from top to bottom, Dojun approached her with something odd in mind.
Taeyeon quickly turned around.
“Oh, this dress is a bit revealing.”
“Not just a bit.”
Dojun reached out his hand to unzip the dress.
Feeling his warmth, Taeyeon held her breath.
Dojun’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“All the dresses looked good, but it seems impractical to wear this dress tomorrow.”
“I guess so.”
Actually, Taeyeon liked the dress she was wearing now. It wasn’t flashy, but it accentuated the advantages of her figure, making her legs look longer.
“Then, I’ll change and come out.”
As Taeyeon entered the fitting room, Dojun followed her.
“Dojun?”
“It’s hard to wear and take off this kind of clothing alone.”
He innocently smiled, as if he had no other intentions.
“Ah, then should I call the shopper…”
“No need. I came here, so there’s no need to bother.”
Dojun gestured for her to turn around quickly.
Even though they were a married couple, Taeyeon still felt embarrassed about undressing in front of him.
“I want to wear this dress.”
“Aren’t you going to try another dress?”
“No. You’ve probably chosen well. It seems fine to pick something plain and go home, doesn’t it?”
Of course, it would have been better to try on other clothes, but Taeyeon had no choice now.
Dojun, seeming disappointed, opened the fitting room door and left.
“Please deliver everything hanging here to my house.”
“Dojun, we don’t need so much.”
Despite Taeyeon’s protest, Dojun didn’t listen.
“Also, the shoes and the bag…”
“No, no! We really don’t need all of this.”
If she left it as it was, Dojun might move the entire department store to their home.
Taeyeon quickly grabbed a pair of shoes and a bag that she liked.
‘Having at least one like this should be fine.’
With a bright smile, Taeyeon handed the shoes and bag to the employee.
“I’ll ask you to deliver these together.”
“The rest…”
“Let’s go shopping together next time. We’ll take our time then.”
“Sure, whatever.”
Fortunately, Dojun willingly stepped back.
As she descended to the parking lot, Taeyeon made a resolution.
Next time when shopping with Dojun, she vowed to choose clothes that are easy to put on and take off alone.

Upon arriving home, Taeyeon headed to the dressing room. Although she shared the space with Dojun, they usually took turns wearing clothes, allowing each other privacy. However, today, for some reason, Dojun followed her into the dressing room.
“Dojun, would you like to change first?”
“No. I’m here to help Jin Taeyeon change her clothes.”
“What?”
Taeyeon took a step back. She had a foreboding feeling that today might repeat the ominous events in the department store fitting room.
“Dojun, I don’t know if you’ve never worn a dress, but you can easily unzip it by yourself.”
Of course, if the zipper of other dresses usually started around the neck, the one she was wearing now was attached somewhat ambiguously near the wings.
But there was no problem.
“I’m quite flexible.”
Meaning that she could handle it alone.
Dojun loosened his tie and nodded as if understanding.
“Really?”
“Yes, of course.”
“Okay then. Try unzipping it.”
“What?”
Dojun approached as Taeyeon took a step back, and he smiled provocatively.
“I’m not doing this because I have some ulterior motive.”
It seemed quite fitting.
“Just in case you can’t unzip it, I’m here to help immediately.”
“…”
“So, quickly.”
Dojun held Taeyeon’s delicate waist with both hands.
Officially, the reason was to prevent the clothes from flowing down right after unzipping.
After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
