Weather forecasts are like a probability game.
Always unpredictable like a game of heads or tails, the weather in May, which should bring summer, was especially erratic, fluctuating between hot and cold, occasionally sprinkling rain.
Consequently, Yuin’s recent habit was to check the air and sky conditions first thing in the morning.
Noticing the ominous clouds spread wide, she bet on rain for the day.
However, no rain fell by the afternoon, and it seemed her gamble in the probability game was headed for defeat.
Are you done at 4 today?
“Yes.”
I’ll come to pick you up then.
“What? All of a sudden?”
On her way to the library with time to spare before her next class, Yuin’s hand swung the umbrella she’d brought that morning.
Gyeon, now intimately familiar with Yuin’s class schedule, not only contacted her as a dedicated breaktime notifier but also declared he would come to pick her up.
It will rain by the time your class ends. I need to make sure Nam Yuin doesn’t get wet.
“I have my umbrella today, you don’t need to come.”
Leave that umbrella to me, use me instead.
A bewildered “uh” escaped her lips.
Use him instead of an umbrella? What did that mean?
Frozen in place, her phone gripped tightly, Yuin was at a loss for words.
“…I mean, since last time, what’s with…”
What? Don’t mumble, speak up. I can’t understand you.
Was he really unable to understand, or just teasing her?
Yuin, closing and opening her eyes, exhaled a hot sigh and started walking again.
“Do you find it amusing to tease me, Director?”
Hmm, generally, yes?
“Aren’t you busy?”
No matter how busy, I have time to be Nam Yuin’s umbrella.
His calm yet weighty voice gently passed through her eardrum, rushed through her veins, and finally reached her mind.
Nam Yuin’s umbrella.
What started as a small ripple of a sentence quickly grew into a whirlpool, engulfing Yuin completely.
Ah, today, this man is dangerous. Making her heart flutter, causing tremors, and sending shocks of emotion.
“…You’re an umbrella, Director?”
Just so you know, there’s no rejecting. I also have something to give you.
“Give me? What is it?”
Sweeping her off her feet by sweetly offering to be her umbrella, the man had effectively stripped her of any right to refuse, cloaked in a rather romantic title.
The irony was so like him, perplexing yet undeniably characteristic of Gyeon.
You’ll find out later. Call me after class.
With a “see you later,” the call ended.
Yuin looked at the ended call on her phone, then startled at her reflection in the darkened screen.
What? Why am I smiling?
Embarrassed, the phone became a scapegoat for her awkwardness and was shoved into her bag.
The noise of chairs, packing up, and footsteps snapped her back to reality, belatedly realizing class had ended.
It was a moment where the term ‘time flies’ was deeply felt. In her thoughts, only the man who had offered to be Nam Yuin’s umbrella floated effortlessly.
Muttering ‘crazy, absolutely crazy’ to herself, she quickly grabbed her bag and left the building, only to find that while she was lost in thought, a light rain had started, bringing a rich scent of grass to the campus.
“Ah, the phone.”
Remembering Director’s words to call after class, she took out her phone.
Just as her thumb was about to press the most recent number, someone abruptly yanked her arm holding the phone.
Startled, Yuin dropped the phone, which landed with an ominous crack.
Looking down in disbelief at the fallen phone and then up, she saw a distressed-looking Ji Han.
“Ah, sorry, Yuin. Sorry.”
Appearing out of nowhere with a troubled expression, Ji Han repeated his apologies while picking up the fallen device.
“I saw you about to leave and grabbed you in a hurry… I’m sorry.”
“Um…”
The phone Yuin received back was wet and shattered, seemingly beyond repair.
The screen was riddled with unresponsive cracks. While fiddling with the broken screen, she briefly noticed an incoming call, but couldn’t answer due to the non-functional touchscreen.
Yuin sighed deeply.
“What can we do? But why are you here? Shouldn’t you be in class?”
“I came because it’s raining, and I thought I’d bring an umbrella. And about the phone… I’m really sorry. I’ll buy you a new one.”
“No, it’s fine… But Ji Han, I have an umbrella.”
Yuin waved the umbrella she had been carrying.
As she glanced up at the sky, which seemed to be in a temporary lull but threatening to pour again, she was about to tell her friend to hurry back to class but stopped upon noticing his hesitance.
“Ji Han, is there something you want to talk about?”
“…”
“Yun Ji Han. What’s wrong? Is something the matter?”
“…Yuin.”
“Yes. Tell me.”
Ji Han’s bright eyes, damp with the humidity of rain, fixated on Yuin’s vibrating phone.
As Yuin watched Ji Han’s pale, strained face, she followed his gaze and subtly covered the screen with her finger.
This caused a slight nick in his gaze, but Yuin didn’t notice.
Ji Han’s lips, pressed into a straight line, finally parted.

Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
①Male pregnancy (highlighted)
The female lead is five years older than the male lead, and the male lead is already an adult when he appears.
