Haein openly shared the legal department’s intentions. Songgang thought for a moment.
What was Geum Moran trying to achieve, daring to put Nasongrim in his place? It was laughable.
“You still don’t know who’s behind this?”
Songgang hid his thoughts and asked Haein, who thought for a moment before responding.
“Actually, I’m not sure about that.”
Haein seemed sincere, so Songgang nodded, slightly willing to trust his word.
“But as you know, the prosecutor has summoned Nasongrim. Until now, the ‘Nasong[Dash]’ signature was thought to be yours, being next in line after the chairman. But I hadn’t thought that far.”
Haein had a hunch but couldn’t speak to Songgang without concrete evidence. However, Songgang guessed what he was hesitating to say.
“Feel free to speak your mind.”
Encouraged to speak freely, Haein hesitated, knowing he could lose his job. As Haein struggled, Songgang spoke for him.
“It’s not Nasongrim, nor Nasongwoon…”
Songgang trailed off, indicating there was no need to discuss them further. Haein felt uneasy as if Songgang was reading his mind.
“They’re not fit for it. Those kids.”
It wasn’t a defense but a dismissal. Haein didn’t strongly disagree; everyone in Taesung knew they were irresponsible.
“Then who dared to impersonate you for such significant approvals?”
Haein asked, as if expecting Songgang to know.
“Well, I’m curious about how the prosecution is perceiving this. They seem to know I’m not the culprit. I wonder how they are proceeding with the investigation of the real culprit…”
Songgang naturally shifted the focus to the prosecution.
“Should I meet with Prosecutor Choi Juhyuk? He’s a close senior of mine.”
“Aren’t you confident about contacting Prosecutor Jin Rain? You said she’s also a senior, didn’t you?”
“Ah… yes… that side.”
Songgang didn’t actually mean for her to contact Prosecutor Jin Rain.
“If this case could have been resolved through connections, Prosecutor Choi Juhyuk would have contacted us first when the legal department was pushing in those evidences.”
Haein nodded in agreement to Songgang’s words.
“Rather, I plan to testify at the next summoning. Prepare the evidence to be submitted on the day.”
Songgang planned to actively cooperate with the investigation as requested by Prosecutor Jin Rain.
“Alright…”
Haein looked worried at Songgang’s directive.
“Is there a problem?”
“Oh, it’s not that… It’s just that the legal department head is very alert right now.”
Songgang lightly laughed at her words, but his smile soon turned cold.
“Does it mean I have to be wary of the legal department head?”
His words were irritating. He was already considering when to dismiss the legal department head.
Haein quickly clarified in a flustered manner.
“It’s not that. I just meant you don’t need to worry.”
Songgang didn’t mean to scare her, but the situation inadvertently turned that way.
“Make sure the prosecutors have the right conditions for the investigation. Focus on preparing the evidentiary material for the next summons. Don’t worry about anything else.”
“Understood.”
Haein responded quickly, her expression and body tense.
“Who will accompany Nasongrim’s deputy director during the summons?”
“The legal department head will accompany him.”
“That’s good.”
Songgang also hoped to find some clues during Nasongrim’s summons.
Later, the legal department tried to postpone Nasongrim’s summons, making excuses. For some reason, the focus of the summons shifted back to Songgang.
The legal department head personally reported this to Songgang. He felt uneasy about the head’s relaxed demeanor.
As soon as the legal department head left, Songgang called Haein in. She was about to report something urgent to him.
The news from Haein was unexpectedly urgent and significant.
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
