With a loose fit making her slender body appear even slimmer, Yu In, wearing a pitch-black cardigan, appeared. The moment she showed up, Ji Han’s heart sank.
The indifferent eyes that remained the same after several years, the white face hidden under the hat that stole her heart at first sight with an unmatched clear and transparent atmosphere, fluttered her chest with excitement.
She thought Yu In would always be by her side, but like a spring flower that appeared for only a season and then disappeared, Nam Yu In flew away.
“Did you wait long?”
“No.”
In reality, she did. She had been waiting for her alone for a long time, and she continued waiting even now due to her foolish arrogance that caused her to miss the chance.
However, that was a secret that Yu In could never tell.
Sitting in the passenger seat and fastening her seatbelt, Yu In, who had yawned several times in the past few days, glanced at Ji Han secretly. She quickly turned her gaze away before the worn-out affection could be noticed.
“Han Jae Hee will be here soon. He said he’s busy.”
“Yeah, I heard.”
“Did you contact him? Is he going crazy?”
“Yeah.”
Even though Yu In wasn’t particularly talkative, Ji Han felt concerned about the even simpler transformation that had taken place in her.
“Did you sleep well?”
“Yeah. Whatever.”
“Are your mom and dad doing well?”
“Yeah. My mom said she’d make something delicious if you come over.”
“Really? When should I come?”
Ji Han used to visit Yu In’s house frequently until before college. After accidentally revealing her feelings to Yu Jin, she started avoiding going there for no apparent reason.
Now that she thought about it, even Yu Jin, Han Jae Hee, and even the man Yu In met seemed to have noticed her feelings. How could only the person involved not know?
“Do you want to eat first, or do you want to go for a walk?”
“Hmm.”
Yu In, who seemed lost in thought with blinking eyes, unexpectedly gave an unexpected answer after a while.
“Let’s go to the Han River.”
“The Han River?”
“Yeah. Is there a problem?”
There was no problem. From the moment the word “Han River” came out of Yu In’s mouth, a plan to visit the Han River had been steadily progressing in Ji Han’s mind.
The weather at the Han River, reached after driving according to her wishes, was perfect. The sky was high, and creamy clouds like whipped cream on a cappuccino sporadically dotted the sky.
As they sat on the riverside where a cool breeze blew, a makeshift but quite decent picnic spot was arranged.
“The weather is really nice.”
“Yeah. It’s not too hot, which is good.”
While her lips said it was good, a lonely chill breeze lingered on her white face, hidden under a deeply pressed hat.
Ji Han felt both sorry and pitiful, and at the same time, she felt a bitter taste in her mouth.
This extreme ambivalent feeling was self-inflicted. It was her fault for hesitating to lose even the name “friend,” and missing the timing in the end.
If she had been by my side, I would never have made Yu In feel upset.
“I’ll go get some drinks. What do you want to drink?”
“Anything is fine for me.”
“Okay. Can you sit alone for a moment?”
“Am I a baby? Go and come back.”
Yu In said with a look of disbelief, then turned her head again to focus on the river reflecting the sunlight without any clear focus.
Just before spring arrived, on a winter day when the cold, biting wind, known as “flower cold,” was prevalent, the atmosphere was strangely uneasy, reminiscent of the first time they had met through Han Jae Hee’s introduction.
Unlike her peers who would chatter loudly when she appeared, Nam Yu In was weighed down and seemed burdened.
How did she end up falling in love with such a difficult person as Nam Yu In?
“Wow, Yu In. The convenience store has a lot of interesting and delicious things.”
When Ji Han cheerfully placed a large bag filled with bread, drinks, sandwiches, snacks, sausages, and snacks on the table, the corner of Yu In’s eyebrows twitched uncomfortably.
“…Did you really buy all that?”
“Yeah. If you and I can’t eat it, Jae Hee will come and take care of it later. Don’t worry.”
“How much does Jae Hee eat?”
As Ji Han rummaged through the bag, her bright and clear pupils were fixed on Yu In’s small and white hand.
Even now, her gestures were so lovely that they captivated people.
Though Ji Han wanted to hold that hand gently and comfortingly, today, she quickly reminded herself of her role as a friend who consoles and her arms, yearning to embrace Yu In to her heart’s content, hesitated.
The opportunity for that might come to me too in the future. I might have the right to embrace Yu In and whisper love to her.
“…Is it okay?”
“Huh? What did you say?”
The sudden change of heart, from the determination to discard and shove the trash away, to rapidly dominating the frontal lobe with dark intentions, happened in an instant.
To Ji Han, who was so absorbed that she couldn’t even hear Yu In’s voice right in front of her, Yu In, blinking her round eyes, asked again.
“Can I drink this?”
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.
