Following the verdict of imprisonment for Geum Moran, her closest secretary and chief prosecutor were also sequentially convicted. The chief prosecutor, who received a prison sentence, not only lost his position as a chief prosecutor but also as a prosecutor.
As a result, Yun Nanseul’s position as a prosecutor became much more precarious. This could have been a triumphant moment for the two prosecutors.
While the disappearance of one chief prosecutor like a fox wouldn’t open a season, Line’s life at the prosecutor’s office became even more challenging.
The newly appointed chief prosecutor was a contemporary of the former chief prosecutor. The unwritten rule that once you climb up, you go all the way applied to the new chief prosecutor as well.
Moreover, he disliked belittling the organization. A person like that wouldn’t view Line favorably.
All the problematic content discovered during the investigation of the former chief prosecutor was gathered, and a disciplinary committee was convened. Matters involving legal responsibility were handed over to the court.
For Line, a one-month suspension and social service disciplinary action were imposed. Despite feeling bitter, Line accepted the results cleanly. It wasn’t something she had done without expecting such consequences at the time.
Before Song Kang heard the news from Line, he learned about it through Haein. Another piece of information he received was that Line was coming to volunteer at Taesung Orphanage.
Song Kang pretended not to know all these facts. He wondered if there was a reason for Line not to mention it. If it was an inevitable reality already decided, Song Kang secretly wanted to use this incident as an opportunity.
It wasn’t that he wanted to avoid being with the children; rather, he hoped that spending time with them might bring a change to Line’s heart.
Line ended up volunteering in a place she really wanted to avoid. Since it wasn’t a paid position, there was no way to refuse the situation.
“Ha…”
Standing in front of Taesung Orphanage, Line sighed deeply and stared blankly at the place. The children’s cheerful voices felt almost dizzying.
The situation Line, who was fearless, feared the most was being with young children. The fact that taking care of a child had nothing to do with her knowledge or abilities was so grim.
“Prosecutor, hello?”
The orphanage director spoke to Line, who was standing awkwardly. Startled, Line looked in that direction.
“Ah… yes. Hello?”
Although the director had a very good impression, Line unconsciously adopted a defensive attitude by adjusting her collar.
“I will guide you through today’s tasks.”
“Ah… yes, sure. Please assign me tasks like laundry or dishwashing that won’t overlap with the children’s activities.”
“Who picks a penalty like that?”
Line turned her head at the familiar voice. It was Song Kang. Although she thought he wouldn’t pay attention to Taesung Orphanage affairs because he was busy, how did he know about this?
Aware that he knew everything about her situation, Line felt embarrassed but pretended not to care.
“Director, let’s proceed as usual.”
At Song Kang’s words, the orphanage director smiled brightly and guided Line. Song Kang, after exploring Taesung Orphanage after a long time and observing the children, finally headed to the director’s office.
Line, who used to dislike being with young children the most, hoped that spending time here might make her a bit closer to the kids.
“Prosecutor, it’s almost time for the children to eat. Please accompany them to the cafeteria. Other teachers will handle the distribution. While having your meal, please help the kids with theirs.”
A nervous Line entered the classroom with a tense expression. The children showed a lot of interest in Line, a new face among the teachers.
“Oh! Don’t run. You might get hurt if you spill the hot soup. It’s dangerous to wave chopsticks around. This is a weapon. A weapon.”
Today, the children seemed even more excited with Director Na Songkang visiting. Special meals were prepared for Song Kang, and he personally connected with the children emotionally. Even young children could sense his sincerity.
Thanks to that, Line felt like her mind was slipping away. The unpredictable movements of the rugby-ball-like kids already exhausted Line. She desperately hoped that nothing would happen to the kids she was taking care of.
“Teacher, aren’t you going to eat?”
Line raised her head at Song Kang’s voice. Line unknowingly had an arrogant expression.
“How can I eat here?”
Line thought it would be better to eat in the midst of a war trench. However, a tray was in Song Kang’s hands.
Whenever he visited, Song Kang had meals with the kids. Today was no exception. Reluctantly, Line picked up the tray.
Song Kang sitting among the kids looked very natural. Line placed her tray in front of Song Kang and sat down. The amount of food on her tray was even less than what the children received.
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village.

However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
