“So, mom. All I need is to break off the engagement, right? Huh?”
“Why would an engagement that’s been fine so far break off? What have you heard? Don’t tell me you’re stirring up unnecessary trouble?”
The wrinkles on Lee Seongja’s face deepened.
Her worry was greater because she knew her daughter’s follies better than anyone.
Thinking about the reckless deeds her immature Nana did without others’ knowledge, she felt a lump in her chest.
There were many times when she unknowingly took care of the aftermath.
“Mom, that engagement, anyway…..”
“……?”
“Anyway, mom doesn’t need to know everything. Just say it’s all good, okay?”
Wang Deokjin, silently sipping his tea and perusing economic news, was quietly listening to his wife and daughter’s conversation.
As Lee Seongja stroked her grown daughter’s hair, she sighed.
“Even if it’s not him, your mother will find a decent marriage partner for you….”
“No! Why do you keep saying no to oppa? Tell me, who? That person before wasn’t he a pipsqueak the same height as me?”
“He’s not Hye Kang’s son. No matter how I think about it, they’re more inclined than us.”
The truth was that she had found out something from the other family, and they had already given up on Nana.
But there was no need to tell her daughter the truth.
“It would either be the second son of Ra Sung Group or the eldest son of Congressman Song Injae. You should meet both of them and…..”
“Are you telling me to see prospects again? No! I hate it! It’s so tacky and annoying!”
In the end, Wang Deokjin put down the tablet he was holding.
“You, isn’t it time you grew up a bit? How long are you going to upset your mother until you come to your senses? You too, why beat around the bush? That guy is in his position because of luck, he doesn’t have any roots, he doesn’t have any.”
“So, dad has roots? What roots? The whole world knows that grandpa was a cattle dealer!”
Lee Seongja’s face turned red with surprise.
“Nana! What kind of a saying is that!”
“Hey, hold on. The cattle dealer was your greatgrandfather. And no matter how much a cattle dealer, there are levels, do you even know how many cows our grandfather had? A cattle dealer? Huh, really!”
Wang Deokjin chuckled.
It was because he found it both ridiculous and adorable at the same time. It made him wonder what kind of blood she had.
“Selling cows makes you a cattle dealer. What does the number of cows matter?”
“Yeah, you’re right. An orphan is an orphan. Adoption doesn’t change anything. These days, dogs and cats are adopted, and all property is handed down!”
“Dad, you said it right, do you know how much wealth our brother is going to inherit, no has already inherited? Dogs, cats? Oh my!”
“Dogs and cats at least have the merit of being cute. Actually, I saw that guy a few times, son. The guy doesn’t even have an ounce of charm, his eyes are too arrogant, and his face is shining like a parasite, I don’t think he’ll ever be worth a look in his life.”
“What! So, he should look like a toad like dad then? I would never marry an ugly guy! I’m different from mom!”
Wang Deokjin only laughed at his daughter’s impudent words.
“That family just sits and watches money grow. We are in a different dimension! How could you talk about roots!”
“Well, we don’t need that kind of money trader….”
“Ugh! That’s what I’m saying! How many times do I have to say it! How much money would you need to buy and sell it!”
“Nana. When considering our company’s future, it’s one or the other. Especially if it’s Representative Song, there’s nothing more to wish for. Look at your brothers. How much they struggle every time without political connections. Can you please consider mom, my daughter, hmm?”
Lee Seongja softened her voice as she observed her daughter, who was nearly frothing at the mouth in protest.
“That’s right, who would want to marry into such a situation? And now, why am I being pressured to sacrifice!”
At the word sacrifice a word that was hard to imagine coming from her daughter’s mouth, Lee Seongja held her forehead.
Wang Deokjin, who had reopened the news page, no longer showed any interest.
Wang Deokjin discreetly adjusted his glasses while watching Nana, who had been fussing, go up to her room.
“Maybe you should hurry. I think it might be better to get her married off quickly.”
“Maybe… If she has a child, she might mature a little.”
The couple sighing simultaneously had similar inner feelings.
Would that really happen?
Eun Jo greeted the morning just like any other day.
Her ankle was a bit sore, but it wasn’t too much trouble to move.
She made coffee and prepared a simple breakfast, waiting for Jae Ha to appear.
She had thought that he would surely back off if she mentioned their child.
But she hadn’t expected him to get so agitated.
But for her, it was the best choice she had no control over.
There was something she vowed to herself when she decided to move into this house.
A line that should never be crossed.
“Sigh…”
That gaze, that voice… that touch.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
