Hyunwoo emphasized again that Kwonyul was a man who had everything. ‘I heard about Gangnam K Tower from Hojin. Yul is also wealthy.’ Seoyeon knew that his family owned several high-rise buildings in Gangnam. Since she wasn’t the type to pry into details, she had casually passed it off.
But a smart and wealthy person like him. It was nice, but at the same time, it felt burdensome.
How would she feel if she knew about his family while dating him? She was quite worried.
“Okay, I get it. Now it’s time to ask the most important question.”
“I’ll ask. Mr. Yul, what do you think of our Seoyeon?”
To the straightforward question, Kwonyul answered honestly.
He smoothly revealed everything that had happened since he first saw Seoyeon in the hotel parking lot until now.
Of course, his mistakes, such as not revealing that he wanted to appear as a college student and a man to Seoyeon, were also included.
The story that flowed out naturally from Kwonyul’s mouth was like a drama.
Sehee sighed briefly as she learned about the whole story.
If her family knew about this, their reaction would be so clear.
However, Sehee didn’t express it deliberately.
As Kwonyul was still a college student, and it hadn’t been long since they started dating, she couldn’t rashly bring up negative stories.
If she did, Kwonyul would strongly protest, and at the same time, their relationship might become more affectionate.
‘I should talk to Yul separately later.’
While Sehee was looking forward to the next opportunity, friends returned to their questions.
“I won’t repeat it. What do you like the most about Seoyeon?”
Lina touched the key points.
“Well, why ask so directly?”
When Sehee tried to interrupt, Kwonyul grabbed his arm.
“I can’t say just one thing.”
“But if you had to say?”
“When Seoyeon smiles, her eyes twinkle like stars.”
“That’s true.”
Hyunwoo nodded as if agreeing.
“When she laughs, she’s the cutest in the world, when she cries, you want to protect her a bit, and having some flaws makes her human, and…”
Kwonyul paused for a moment. Then he looked at Seoyeon with a smile.
“And, what else?”
“Kissing.”
Sehee sighed deeply at Kwonyul, her cousin’s, kissing statement.
“Why, why kissing!”
Friends turned their bodies completely to look at Kwonyul’s mouth as if they were curious.
“Because it was our first kiss.”
The careful and serious man confidently declared his first.
“Ha, Kwonyul. You’re driving me crazy.”
Sehee shook her head back and forth, holding her forehead, and Hyunwoo sent an envious look.
“The game is over.”
Hojin hurriedly declared the end of the game.
“That’s one way to put it.”
Lina made a perfect conclusion like a judge.
“It’s a bit ridiculous to talk like this in front of the person involved…”
While holding Seoyeon’s hand, Lina said.
“Seoyeon, when you weren’t around, we bombarded Mr. Yul with all sorts of questions. But he turned out to be a genuinely good and righteous person.”
“Yeah, so… don’t forget that age is just a number. Meet each other beautifully.”
Jiyeon also genuinely congratulated.
“I liked him from the first time I saw him. When I said I was cold, Mr. Yul took off his jacket for me. Anyway, I’m covering and approving.”
Seoyeon felt good about her friends’ generous evaluation. However, it was difficult to react openly as she kept an eye on Sehee’s expression.
Sehee was consistently negative, and it was undoubtedly true that she disliked herself due to the age difference.
While Seoyeon was managing her expression, Kwonyul felt proud to receive acknowledgment.
“Thank you for seeing it in a positive light.”
Above all, the approval and support from friends meant a lot to Kwonyul.
“Mr. Yul, when can we all have a meal together with our husbands?”
“Ms. Lina, did you… get married too?”
Hyunwoo asked with a disappointed expression.
“Of course. Now, if only Hojin would pull himself together.”
“Yeah. Our Hojin said he’s going to marry a man like a diamond.”
At Lina’s words, Sehee’s pupils shook violently.
“A… a diamond?”
“Yes. Three years ago on that day, when we went to set the wedding date, we heard various stories.”
“Oh! Right. Where’s the diamond, by the way?”
Now that she remembered, Hojin tapped the table.
“Hojin, do you want to meet Director Soo of TS Electronics I talked about last time?”
Upon Lina’s words, Sehee openly expressed her discomfort.
“The TS Electronics battery explosion issue, do you know about it?”
Seoyeon quickly caught the moment.
‘Is it now? A chance for Sehee to score points.’
Seoyeon knew about Hojin and Sehee’s secret affair and subtly sensed their mutual affection.
“Lina, it’s okay with the director.”
“That person has nothing to do with the battery. And besides, Hojin’s ideal type. Want me to show you a picture?”
Seoyeon grabbed Lina’s hand as she tried to find a photo.
Then, she began to think about how to explain this situation.
If their relationship with Kwonyul became serious later on and Sehee became a reliable ally… It wouldn’t be so bad.
To connect the two, Seoyeon tried to stop Hojin, but Kwonyul suddenly intervened.
“Hojin, Mr. Sehee. How about it?”
Seoyeon momentarily forgot that Kwonyul knew about the two.
“Yeah, right. Why look far.”
The two seemed quite proactive, as if they were in partnership.
“Uh? Who?”
Between Lina and Jiyeon’s confusion, Hojin’s cheeks blushed.
“Here, our Sehee, after, law, firm, Seooh’s, later, Gae, Ja, Hisin, Sehee lawyer is here. She’s also in the legal profession; how great.”
Kwonyul enthusiastically spoke as if seeking approval from Seoyeon.
“Even though my brother seems cold on the outside, he’s not like that on the inside. He’s very warm.”
Sehee pressed her lips, holding back the upward movement, in response to Kwonyul’s continued praise.
But she didn’t stop him as if silently encouraging him.
Two unmarried women looking for their own partners made Hyunwoo the most embarrassed in the atmosphere.
“Sehee, do you happen to be interested in Mr. Hojin…?”
Hyunwoo asked Sehee with a pitiful look.
Sehee, with a prickly personality, didn’t deny anything. It meant intense affirmation.
“Hojin, this time, seriously talk to Lawyer Sehee.”
“Yes. Mr. Hojin, our brother is really a good person.”
Seoyeon needed a reliable ally strategically, and Kwonyul genuinely supported Sehee’s love.
“Oh, what again.”
Hojin looked at Sehee with an expression that couldn’t be understood.
In an instant, a small heat passed through the eyes of the two.
Then, as if waiting for this moment, Sehee, the cold man, looked at Hojin with a very intense gaze.
“Yeohojin.”
Sehee’s white and long hand moved toward Hojin.
“Hold it.”
Everyone held their breath and watched the two.
As Hojin hesitated to extend his hand, Sehee firmly grabbed her hand.
“Let’s go. Together.”
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
