In the end, Line and Song-gang lay down on one bed. Song-gang willingly offered his arm. Line, like a child watching a horror movie, dug into his arms, wanting to keep confirming the presence of someone next to her.
Finally falling asleep, she seemed to be having nightmares, occasionally tossing and turning. Painful sounds even flowed through her lips.
Song-gang sat up to check Line’s condition. She was sweating coldly. Song-gang hugged her even tighter, kissed her forehead, and gently patted her shoulder.
Despite appearing strong on the outside, Song-gang knew better than anyone that she was an incredibly fragile person on the inside.
At the small moaning sound from Line, he opened his eyes. Every time, he gently patted her back to help her relax.
The two tossed and turned all night, neither sleeping nor waking.
Unfortunately, the alarm rang at the set time.
“Mmm~.”
Line rubbed her head against Song-gang’s chest, then curled up as if pouting. Still, being the kind of person who couldn’t stand laziness, she managed to open her eyes somehow.
Line groggily sat up, then promptly flopped over his abdomen. Knowing that neither of them had slept well, they skipped the customary morning greetings.
“How will Isa-nim handle the fatigue?”
“I have a question.”
When Song-gang tried to get up, Line prevented him from doing so. Then, wriggling, she gradually climbed onto his body. And just like that, she adopted a posture like a frog, enveloping him tightly.
It was her gestures that tormented him from the morning.
“Mmm~. I want to stay like this a bit more.”
“Let’s go to work.”
For some reason, he didn’t let her have her way. It was because he didn’t want to be taken advantage of again by her, who would stir up heat and then retreat.
“Can’t we stay like this a little longer?”
“Then, can Inspector Jin-line do what Inspector Jin-line wants, and can I do what I want?”
It was an unusual question. Line, who was under his chin, glanced up at his face.
He, too, gazed at Line. A double eyelid had formed on one of his eyes. Line jabbed his chest and sat up.
“Hey… Are you just telling me to get up?”
“I told you a little while ago. Did you try to get everything you wanted without a deal with a manager?”
That’s what Line tried to do. She tried to take only what she wanted. But today, it seemed like it wouldn’t work. Still feeling regretful, she looked at Song-gang again.
“Really?”
“Really.”
Line blurted out. But Song-gang didn’t want to be drawn in by her innocent attraction. He thought it would be better to be dragged along without brakes if there was malice.
“Really?”
“Really.”
Once he showed a firm determination, Line bowed her upper body and playfully tickled his face with the tip of her hair. Song-gang, intending to show his true intentions, quickly overturned the situation.
“Ah!”
Suddenly, Line, who was lying under him, had the sleepiness washed away from her eyes.
“Ask me again.”
It seemed like something big would happen if he teased her a little more. Line widened her eyes and shook her head.
“Then stop playing around and hurry to wash up.”
“Huh?”
At his words, Line shrank her shoulders and curled up. His words made her feel awkward for no reason.
“Aren’t you going to work?”
Sorry, but Song-gang had no intention of prostrating himself. He had no hidden agenda. He just wanted to quickly prepare for work to resist this temptation.
Song-gang pushed his hand under Line’s back and lifted her body. Without a word, Line headed to the bathroom. Seeing her back, Song-gang couldn’t help but smile; she looked so cute.
Chairman Na opened the Future Strategy Office for Attorney Cha Hae-in. Although it would be quickly resolved if the Legal Affairs Director explained it to Hae-in, Chairman Na couldn’t trust anyone now except his son Song-gang.
Hae-in couldn’t close her mouth after seeing the confidential documents in the Future Strategy Office.
So much money had been playing around in the hands of Geummo-ran; there was a reason for her confidence even after being driven out of Taesungga.
When the prosecutor came, it turned out that the amount of money Geummo-ran embezzled was enough to open a few more affiliates of Taesung. It was truly a scheme aimed at Chairman Na.
Hae-in was examining the documents without realizing that Song-gang had come in.
“What’s the matter a bit?”
It wasn’t just a bit; Hae-in hesitated to answer. Without scrutinizing Hae-in’s expression, Song-gang could guess the situation to some extent.
What to do with these documents…
Song-gang thought for a moment. It was important to expose Geummo-ran’s crime, but he also needed to focus on defending Chairman Na. In that case, there might be a way to hand over this evidence to the prosecutor…
“What’s the best way to handle this?”
“Should we hand it over to the prosecutor? We can defend ourselves in our own way, and the prosecutor can use it as a bullet in their own way.”
Song-gang couldn’t answer readily. He still couldn’t predict the potential impact when these documents were released to the world.
“Let’s think about it a little more.”
“Yes, I’ll do that. I think it’s okay to hold on to the contents that will be hidden no matter when it’s revealed.”
Later, a compact summary was reported to Song-gang.
He wanted to tell Chairman Na not to report, considering how shocked he would be after seeing the content, but Song-gang personally went in to report, checking Chairman Na’s condition and cautiously speaking.
Uncomfortable breathing echoed in the office.
“Is this enough?”
“I have no face to see you. None.”
Chairman Na tightly closed his eyes, shaking his head.
“I’ll stop here.”
“Soon, when the trial begins, everything will be revealed. That prosecutor, he seems quite clever.”
It was a comment about Line.
She was worried about her being too clever. If Chairman Na said she was too clever, it meant she was exceptional.
On the other hand, Song-gang felt heavy-hearted. Unable to lift the heavy burden off her shoulders, he was deeply troubled by the reality that everyone was relying on her direction of the investigation.
“You’ll do well… I trust you.”
Song-gang is not one to readily express trust in anyone… Chairman Na didn’t take it seriously when it came to believing in Taesung’s employees or prosecutors.
“Well, if you have such insight, I want to believe that too.”
For the first time in a while, Chairman Na’s warm voice was directed at Line. Somehow, Song-gang felt relieved.
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.
