Chairman Na barely managed to calm his burning emotions, but the thought that his son, Songkang, was challenging him could not be erased.
Unable to overcome his anger, Chairman Na called Songkang to the mansion in the middle of the night.
That place was where Songkang was born and raised, but since Geum Moran moved into the house, it became a space worse than someone else’s house.
With Chairman Na rarely summoning him and no occasion to visit the mansion unless for his mother’s memorial service, Songkang headed home with numerous thoughts. Seeing that the light was still on in Chairman Na’s study, he headed in that direction.
Chairman Na and Geum Moran were waiting for Songkang in their pajamas. Songkang got a big hint from Geum Moran’s expression as she looked at him.
Songkang didn’t want to be rude to Geum Moran in front of Chairman Na. It wasn’t because of fear, just a matter of respect for his father. Songkang greeted Chairman Na lightly and took a seat.
“You may go and rest now.”
“Yes, Chairman.”
Geum Moran was standing outside the study, leaning against the door with her ear.
“About what happened at the company.”
To bring up work matters even at home… Recently, Chairman Na seemed to have become a completely different person, disappointing and hurting Songkang. Nevertheless, he was curious about how Chairman Na’s thoughts had changed since then.
“Kneel down and apologize.”
Songkang looked at Chairman Na with suspicion. Hoping for an apology for Chairman Na’s emotional response, he felt even more deflated when it didn’t happen.
Moreover, Chairman Na, who had never allowed him to bow his head or kneel anywhere, was now making such a demand. Songkang understood Chairman Na’s intentions. It seemed like Chairman Na wanted to confirm his strength and absolute authority by having even his son kneel.
He stood up from his seat. Pushing him even to the point of supporting his father’s side in any situation, Songkang accepted her words.
Songkang knelt in front of Chairman Na.
“Father, I was wrong.”
Only now did Chairman Na relax. It was a cautious move, fearing that his well-established son might persist in defiance.
“Regardless of my apology to you, I strongly recommend that you attend the prosecution’s summons investigation.”
Songkang didn’t compromise his principles. Firstly, he thought that he shouldn’t avoid asserting Taesung’s innocence. If there was guilt, he believed it was more important to face it than to evade. Secondly, if he didn’t respond to this summons investigation, Prosecutor Jinrae might arrest or detain Chairman Na. Songkang did not wish for such a worst-case scenario.
Above all, considering Prosecutor Jinrae, who had to endure this process, Chairman Na couldn’t just leave him to fend for himself.
“This guy still…!”
“Father, if you turn on any news channel right now, the entire world is talking about the Taesung Gate.”
Chairman Na had taught Songkang that public opinion couldn’t be stopped with wealth alone. Chairman Na’s expression showed a sense of confusion.
“I sincerely apologize for speaking against my father’s will. However, please do not consider this summons investigation as disgraceful. Instead, could you think of it as an opportunity to reveal the truth without any hindrance for Taesung?”
Chairman Na knelt at his son’s knees, but the atmosphere inside grew even more turbulent.
“This guy still…! I can’t stand to see this! Leave!”
He left the study in anger. Behind Songkang, Geum Moran was shaking her head, and the sound of her comforting Chairman Na was heard.
“Ah…”
Sighing deeply, Songkang found it challenging to get up from his seat. If she weren’t waiting at home, he would have stayed in that place for a long time.
He left the mansion and headed to his home, where she was waiting. It was not too late, but the road wasn’t very crowded. The solitude spread like city lights, making his heart even more buoyant.
When he arrived home, Line was holding her phone, leaning against the sofa handle, half asleep.
Songkang placed her phone on the coffee table and gently carried her to the bedroom. It was not a guest room but his own room.
“Oh…? Isasnim, you’re here? I fell asleep…”
Line opened her drowsy eyes.
“Just relax. You fell asleep even though it’s way past the time you should be sleeping.”
When Songkang tried to leave after placing Line, she grabbed his hand and pulled him.
“Where are you going? If it’s time to sleep, you should rest.”
Although her pulling force wasn’t strong, he willingly followed her lead. Without washing up, he could not climb onto the bed in any circumstance. Even if she was waiting at home, he wanted to sit there for a long time.
In her presumption of superiority, he decided to show her a side she had never seen before. Songkang left the room in a dissatisfied manner.
Line, caught between embarrassment and apology, hesitated for a moment and then looked at the clock.
“The alarm…!”
Line searched for her phone.
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.
