“Mom, Grandma Janice said that expressing love frequently is good. Especially kisses, hugs, and compliments are the best.”

“Oh[Dash]I see. So, Mom does all that to you, right? You’ve only done it to Lily lately.”

“Mom loves only Philip!”

“……. ”

Eunjo’s expression, at a loss for words, was awkwardness itself. She should have denied it, but there was a prickly side to it, so her words were stuck.

“And I like Nunggumi more!”

“You, you haven’t even met Nunggumi yet. Do you know that Philip is listening right now?”

Heh[Dash]he shrugged his small shoulders as if it didn’t matter, wearing a confident expression.

Eunjo’s eyes widened. It was clear that he had learned from Jaeha while looking at her.
“Dad, whenever I give a gift to Chaelin, we always go together. Chaelin’s dad is short and chubby, but [dash] hehe [dash] it’s exciting!”

“Daon-ah, it’s not like that. Chaelin’s dad is really good at computers. That’s why you said he’s cool, right?”

“…Yeah.”

“Eunjo-yah, what about computers? What kind? I’m good at it too.”

“Yeah! My dad is rich! And he’s tall and handsome! Ahh~.”

Eunjo suppressed a laughter that was about to burst. It occurred to her that if a yawn hadn’t followed, Jaeha might have teared up again.

“Now, Yoon Daon, shall we go to the bedroom with my cool dad? Say hi to Mom and Philip.”

“Yes.”

The child who got up from her seat came to Eunjo and hugged her.

“I love you, Mom.”

“Yeah, Mom loves her son too.”

Eunjo gestured with her eyes towards her round belly.

“Philip, I’ll take a short nap and come back [dash] you should nap too.”

Daon, who had leaned close to Eunjo’s belly, whispered.

As the child and husband left, silence settled in. The flight attendant who came to inquire if there was anything needed moved without making a sound. The spacious seat seemed comfortable, but it seemed he had dozed off.

A faint, unmistakable sound of the airplane engine seemed to have led Eunjo into sleep.

“…….”

Half-opened eyes felt the texture of a thick and soft blanket. The coverage up to the chin resembled a cocoon.

Across from her, Jaeha’s face, scanning through the laptop and documents alternately, was visible. His gaze was cool and sharp.

He would return to being the representative of the South Korean branch of Blackstone Partners.

There was one question Eunjo had always wanted to ask him.

A sensitive question that she had brought up once on a sunflower hill in her childhood but couldn’t push through with. Somehow, it felt like the right moment to bring up that question again.

She had to ask him for his sake.

“…….”

The moment Eunjo licked her dry lips with her tongue.

“Are you awake? Is it uncomfortable? Should I move to the bed?”

Jaeha, who had made an unnecessary gentle smile, swept away the hair falling on his forehead.

“Ha… please.”

“Huh? What’s wrong, Darling?”

“I know well what that expression and gesture mean. This is an airplane. Don’t do that.”

Folding the flowing blanket from her lap, Eunjo looked at him sideways.

“It’s an airplane, right? My airplane. There are three more bed spaces. What’s the problem?”

Now, he even equipped an open grin.

“Philip said he hears it!”

“Mom said if Mom is happy, the son is happy too!”

“Kwon Jaeha!”

“…Hmm.”

Jaeha, who sighed lightly, closed his eyes firmly.

Uh [dash] that’s a danger signal. This isn’t it [dash] Eunjo realized her mistake. She didn’t know why he got excited about calling my name like a pervert.

“You know, should we have a glass of wine together?”

“That sounds good. Okay.”
“No [dash] what meaning? It’s not like that! I’ll just moisten my lips naturally, and oh, I hope Oppa has a little.”

“Okay.”

He raised one eyebrow at his arbitrarily interpreted words.

And in just a few minutes, a fantastic scent of flowers and fruits wafted from the wine glass, placed on the table between the two. The cheese that he had fallen in love with at some point also followed.

“…There’s something I’ve been curious about for a while, and I have to ask today.”

“Yeah, our Eunjo is determined. Anytime.”

Jaeha, turning the wine glass leisurely with a relaxed face, nodded his head.

Eunjo, sipping the fragrance rising from the glass under her chin, closed her eyes briefly and opened them.

“Why haven’t you looked for your parents?”

Jaeha’s leisurely movements came to a sudden halt. The soft smile vanished like smoke.

“…….”

“Eunjo-yah. I think I mentioned before that I don’t want to talk about that.”

An unnatural, light smile, not natural on the man’s face, was crafted, considering his wife.

In the past, she had backed off. His abrupt change in expression at the age of twenty was even frightening. Maybe she recognized it already, but she thought it might be something he didn’t want to talk about.

But she found out for sure not long ago that it wasn’t the case.

[I hope Jaeha has changed his mind by now. Now that I’ve received the blessings of Eunjo and the children, shouldn’t I find out who the parents who gave birth to me are, and what circumstances there were? There seems to be no need for the remnants of anger in that child’s heart anymore.]

Eunjo agreed with Janice’s words too.

“I’m curious. I want to know who the parents who gave birth to Kwon Jaeha are and whether they are alive.”

But it won’t be easy.

Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman

When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…

One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.

Synopsis

During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.

Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.

Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”

Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.

Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”

With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.

Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?

He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
