“Annoying!”
While reading an internet article, Shinjoo threw her phone.
“Teacher of the Nation? How ridiculous.”
It was irritating to see articles about Yun and Kang Hyun covering the portal sites every day, and she hadn’t even sold the internet portal site.
“Married to Cha Kang Hyun.”
It felt like she was having a nightmare. Moreover, knowing that Yun was the daughter of Seo Ji-man, a prominent figure in the ruling party, made her foam at the mouth.
“Did you do a commoner cosplay? What a joke!”
Without knowing, she boasted in front of Yun that she lived in Gangnam and that her father was the head of the DK Electronics.
No wonder the reactions were lukewarm. It seemed she had been secretly laughing at her husband being Cha Kang Hyun and her father-in-law being a member of the National Assembly.
“Ha, she’s a real fox. How could she keep her mouth shut like that?”

Moreover, with the revelation that Yun had married Cha Kang Hyun, Shinjoo faced significant problems in her workplace.
“Did Teacher Min Shinjoo seduce Teacher Seo Yun by spreading false rumors?”
“That’s right. Does that make sense? Her husband is Cha Kang Hyun?”
Even if she muttered something, Shinjoo closed her mouth when Yun passed by. Everyone treated her like she was invisible.
“I wonder how clueless Teacher Seo was.”
“That’s right. It must have been really unfair for her.”
“We misunderstood Teacher Seo, just believing what Teacher Min said.”
“Teacher Min Shinjoo should be ashamed. Hmph!”
Trying to blame Yun for what happened with Young-hoon and create a scandal, Shinjoo faced the greatest crisis of her life.
“When did I become enemies with her? Why is she making my life so difficult? I’m really going crazy!”

Shinjoo pulled the blanket up to the ceiling.
“What are you doing, not even washing the blanket once?”
Shinjoo’s mom, entering with the door open, shouted in surprise.
“Mom!”
When Shinjoo, who had been tearing her hair out, turned around, her mom was surprised.
“What’s wrong with your head? Are you possessed?”
“I don’t know, that’s not important. Mom, I want a fortune-telling.”
“Phew, why did you break up with Young-hoon? The house is fine, and the people are good.”
“Mom, that guy is incredibly narrow-minded. I almost stepped on shit. Anyway, I’m going to see a fortuneteller. The family has to be rich, the man has to be as handsome as Cha Kang Hyun, and, most importantly, he has to be tall, especially broad-shouldered…”
Slap!

Approaching, Shinjoo’s mom slapped Shinjoo’s back.
“Tie up your hair!”
“Mom, I want to quit school.”
“What?”
“I can’t go anymore because it’s too hard.”
Every day was so difficult for Shinjoo. Of course, it was her own fault.
“What? Stop with the nonsense and go wash quickly!”
“Mom, can I just quit school and become a private tutor? I’ll be an exceptional instructor.”
Although she had bullied someone before, being bullied for the first time was so difficult. Shinjoo didn’t know that being ignored by people was so painful.
“What? A private tutor? Close your mouth before I hit you!”

“When Grandma comes, just kneel.”
Yun was embarrassed because Hyun kept trying to tie up her hair, which she hadn’t been able to manage for days.
“Today, I’ll do it myself.”
After a few struggles, the two of them finally went into the bathroom together.
“I remember the time when I got hurt during the shoot.”
Smiling slightly as he remembered the day Yun tied his hair while nursing his injury from the shoot, Kang Hyun laughed.
When her small fingers delved into his hair, he felt an inexplicable peace. Every time he recalled that sensation, he naturally closed his eyes and relaxed.
“Is my hair too dirty?”
Yun asked, blushing.
“No, not at all. Now, let’s begin.”
After applying shampoo to her hair, Kang Hyun gently created foam, being careful not to let it get into her ears.

“If it’s difficult, you can tell me anytime.”
“Yes.”
Yun couldn’t help but smile at Kang Hyun’s sincere voice. Come to think of it, the situation was the same as when she tied his hair.
Finding some stability little by little, Yun felt sorry for how much her family must have suffered after the accident.
When she came to her senses, both Oksoon and Hosik, as well as Kang Hyun, looked terrible. Kang Hyun’s eyes were bloodshot again, and his face was paler than ever.
“Mr. Kang Hyun, I’m sorry for causing you worry.”
Yun sincerely apologized.
“I’m just glad you’re safe. Understand?”
“Yes.”
Yun responded coolly to Kang Hyun’s words.

Kang Hyun realized anew how precious the time spent with her was. Every minute and second spent with her were priceless.
“Done.”
Kang Hyun wrapped her hair with a towel and said, “Thank you.”
Watching Yun’s face as she spoke, Kang Hyun wanted to help her wash her body too, but he decided to endure it because Yun seemed disgusted.
Kang Hyun hugged Yun and went out.
“Let’s change clothes.”
Kang Hyun took out a new patient gown.
“I’ll wear it myself.”
“I’ll help. Isn’t it too awkward for us to be so formal after seeing everything about each other?”
“Mr. Kang Hyun.”

“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”
