Known for producing talented students, the festival at Sunhyeon was famously glamorous and eventful, drawing many people. However, Yuin, almost four years into her studies, had never attended.
She was completely indifferent, avoiding even the vicinity of the school during the festival. But this year, her friend wouldn’t let her be.
“Yuin! Yuin!”
A flashy woman, just alighted from a taxi, hopped over like a rabbit.
It was Han Jaehee, Yuin’s appointment for the day.
“Why do you always take so long?”
“Ah, sorry! I was at a meeting with a new company and they just wouldn’t let me go! It was so annoying!”
Cringing her nose, Jaehee apologized and grabbed Yuin’s arm, dragging her along.
Seeing the crowded entrance, Yuin scowled as if she’d seen something she shouldn’t have. Jaehee, patting her back gently, chuckled.
“This is your last year as a student to participate. You should at least experience it once. What will you say if an interviewer asks about it later?”
“Why would they ask about a festival during an interview?”
“They could. In a world where they ask when you’re getting married, asking about a festival is nothing. That’s pretty mild.”
To an outsider, it might seem like an older peer teaching life lessons to a younger one, but in reality, it was just a typical conversation between friends of the same age.
“What do you want to eat? What do you want to do? I’ll treat you to everything today!”
“I don’t want to eat or do anything. Just take me home.”
“Oh, dear customer, sorry, but no returns. Just enjoy it!”
Jaehee, taller than her friend, dragged her around with ease.
She forced a hot dog into Yuin’s mouth despite her protests, made her hit a target with water balloons, took her to get her tarot read, and even made her sit and listen to a guitar performance.
Soon, she pulled Yuin up again, now holding a non-alcoholic cocktail in her hand.
“Ah~ This is fun, right?!”
Jaehee’s smile seemed refreshing to everyone around.
Exhausted from the crowd, Yuin slumped and scrunched up her face.
“Fun, you say? This?”
Yuin didn’t even sip the blue drink and handed it back to Jaehee.
“Isn’t it fun? Then shall we quickly go see something else?”
“No. We’ve done enough. I’m exhausted. Let’s sit somewhere.”
“Look at you, all out of breath because you just sit and study. Let’s enjoy life a bit more, Yuin. Don’t act like you’ve seen everything in the world!”
Yuin, about to retort that Jaehee was just too energetic, suddenly swallowed her words, sensing a familiar feeling. Where had she heard such similar advice? Who had said it… what was it?
As she struggled to remember, a loud voice calling them from afar interrupted her thoughts.
“Yuin! Han Jaehee!”
Both Yuin and Jaehee turned their heads simultaneously.
Jihan, dressed casually in a comfortable hoodie and light-colored jeans, was running towards them with a bright smile. He caught the attention of not only Sunhyeon University students but also the girls around, grinning mischievously as he approached.
“Wow, how long has it been since we last met? Feels like forever.”
“You were the one who kept bailing because of your drama rehearsals, always busy.”
“How is that bailing? I was just doing my job. Hey, Han Jaehee, starting with a quarrel as soon as you see me?”
“Our Yoon Jihan~ Haven’t seen you in so long, I just feel like teasing you, right?”
Jaehee draped her arm over Jihan’s shoulder, who pushed her away with an annoyed expression. Jaehee laughed heartily, seeming to enjoy his displeasure.
While Yuin weakly smiled at her ever-consistent friends, Jihan tenderly asked her.
“Yuin, how have you been?”
“Fine, just usual.”
“Dragged around by Han Jaehee again? You look totally drained.”
Yuin muttered weakly, prompting a gentle laugh from Jihan, who affectionately ruffled her hair.
“Been really busy lately? You haven’t been in touch much.”
“Uh, have I?”
Yuin laughed awkwardly, casting her eyes downward. The feeling of being pricked by a needle of conscience made it hard for her to meet Jihan’s gentle gaze.
Jihan, who had been focusing solely on Yuin, did not miss this. His smiling face momentarily stiffened before relaxing again.
“Yeah, I felt a bit neglected. You don’t talk much when I ask. Have we got secrets from each other now?”
“Uh?”
Yuin blinked rapidly, startled. More than anything, the word ‘we’ stopped her in her tracks, implying that Jaehee also suspected something.
Yuin glanced at Jaehee involuntarily. Catching Yuin’s gaze, Jaehee smiled awkwardly before cheerfully intervening.
“Hey! Why ask such a thing? Yuin will tell us when the time comes.”
“…”
“…”
As the atmosphere turned awkward, Jaehee, realizing a recovery was impossible, pushed Jihan’s back.
“Yoon Jihan, don’t you have a rehearsal to attend?”
“…Yeah.”
“What if the lead is late? Go on, go! We’ll talk later!”
Jihan, unable to take his eyes off Yuin, finally turned away at Jaehee’s insistence.
After responding to Jaehee’s encouragement to do well in his last rehearsal, Jihan, looking down at the ground, glanced back at Yuin before disappearing into the crowd.
Jaehee waited until Jihan’s silhouette was out of sight, then grabbed the sullen Yuin’s arm. Jaehee’s eyes, usually twinkling with mischief, were now filled with seriousness.
“Yuin, what have you been hiding from us lately?”
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.
