The mere sight of Heo YoungJu glaring would be a sufficient threat to a fiveyearold child, even without the need for scolding.
However, Yoon, the head of the office, could not say such a thing to her boss, so she just fixed her gaze on the entrance of the daycare center.
After a while, the door of the “Leaf Daycare” finally opened.
“Wow~ Let’s ride the slide!”
“I want to play with the ball! Play ball!”
“Who wants to have a sword fight with me~!”
The children pouring out all at once, shouting in unison, brought Heo YoungJu to the verge of madness due to the earpiercing noise.
“Ah, they chirp like sparrows! Where is she? That alien child or whatever!”
“Hold on a moment. I’m looking…… There! She’s over there! The kid playing on the seesaw, on the right.”
“Where, the seesaw?”
Heo YoungJu, covering her ears, turned her gaze towards the seesaw at the corner of the playground.
Soon, she caught sight of two children in bright yellow uniforms merrily moving up and down.
Staring at the small child who was hopping merrily and smiling brightly on the ground, Heo YoungJu was glued to the spot.
The child burst into laughter every time the seesaw lifted into the air, seemingly overjoyed.
“Do you think they look alike?”
“Oh, could you keep it down! I can’t concentrate.”
“…What’s there to concentrate on.”
“What?”
“Nothing. Take your time. It’s not like the result will change just by looking.”
“Yoon, you’ve grown a lot, haven’t you?”
“It’s all thanks to you, madam.”
After rolling her eyes, Heo YoungJu swiftly turned back towards the child on the seesaw.
She looked at the child, who was laughing as if bewitched, for quite some time.

After repeatedly tracking the seesaw’s movement with her eyes, she subtly nudged Yoon’s arm.
“Yoon. Is the box of snacks from the department store that I forgot to take out of the car still there?”
“If you mean the snacks you strictly warned me not to eat, they’re still there. I forgot about them too. I will make sure to deliver them to your house later.”
“No, bring them now.”
“Now?”
“Hurry up! The break is almost over.”
Looking bewildered, Yoon was pushed by Heo YoungJu and headed towards the car.
It was easier not to ask for a reason every time, as she was already a person of fickle temperament.
Meanwhile, Heo YoungJu tiptoed along the daycare wall towards the seesaw.
As the wall was only waisthigh, it seemed to be a much easier way to peek inside.
As expected, when she returned to the other side, the seesaw appeared right in front of her, as if it were just a step away.
In turn, the bright voices of the children sounded very clear.
“Ha Yul, do you have any candy?”
“I only have one left.”
“Can’t you give that one to Woo Joo?”
“No, I have to eat it too!”
The child named Ha Yul who wouldn’t give up just a piece of candy seemed rather mean, causing Heo YoungJu to glare at the other side of the seesaw.
Just as it seemed the child had a rather cold expression, making it obvious she wouldn’t give up the candy.
Just then, Yoon ran over hurriedly with both hands full of highquality snacks.

Hur Youngju, who had swiftly nabbed the snack, leaned against the wall and shook it.
“Hey! Hey!”
“……?”
The children, Woojoo and Hayul, turned their faces to the wall at the same time, following Hur Youngju’s voice.
As their eyes met, Hur Youngju quickly gestured.
“There, the one who is white and pretty! Yes. I mean you. Come over here.”
Since Hur Youngju was staring at Woojoo, Woojoo tilted his head and slowly got off the seesaw.
Then he politely bowed.
“Hello. Did you call me?”
At his cuteness, not only Hur Youngju, but also Director Yoon was breathless.
It was as if they were witnessing a rare scene of Kwon Chae Ha, the mini version with the most beautiful appearance, acting cute.
As Woojoo came within striking distance, Director Yoon kept an eye on Hur Youngju, wondering if she was really going to squeeze him.
However, she acted completely opposite to what she said.
She abruptly grabbed the child’s hand and handed him a handful of snacks.

“Here, you eat this. It’s a snack that’s a hundred times more expensive than a simple candy.”
“Huh?”
“I’m giving it to you.”
“…..”
Thinking he would be pleased, Hur Youngju urged Woojoo, who was hesitant to receive it.
“Why don’t you take it? It’s expensive and good.”
“My mom told me not to accept anything from strangers.”
“What? I’m not a stranger. I’m your gra…..”
Hur Youngju stopped midsentence and glanced at Director Yoon standing behind her.
“Anyway, I’m not a stranger. I even know that your name is Woojoo.”
“Huh? You know Woojoo?”
“Yes. I’m a friend of your mom……. no, a close person!”
At Hur Youngju’s sophistry, Director Yoon clicked his tongue.
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. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. 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.
