The voice suggesting divorce was so clear that it couldn’t be misheard.
Jae Oh, who had momentarily frozen upon hearing the unexpected words, couldn’t even blink.
Divorce? What kind of nonsense was this, like being woken up by someone knocking on the window?
He couldn’t quite grasp the situation, and moved his stiff eyes to look at Chae Yoon.
The voice that mentioned divorce was clear as if sober, but Chae Yoon was currently drunk enough to be unable to walk properly. The eyes that seemed about to fall asleep at any moment were proof of that.
And so, looking at me, the eyes seemed like they would fall asleep at any moment.
Chae Yoon was that drunk.
Jae Oh dismissed Chae Yoon’s words about divorce as just drunken nonsense.
“Stop talking nonsense and tell me if you can walk on your own.”
At Jae Oh’s words, Chae Yoon smiled again.
Looking at Chae Yoon, who was grinning and looking at me, Jae Oh’s brow furrowed slightly.
Why does she smile like that whenever I say something? It’s making my already troubled heart even more troubled.
His heart pounding at an odd rhythm, his mind confused by the word “divorce.”
Jae Oh, who strongly thought that he shouldn’t be swayed any further by Chae Yoon in this situation, spoke with a firm voice.
“Can you walk or not?”
His voice was one tone lower and heavier.
Then, with her drowsy eyes, Chae Yoon who had been smiling finally licked her lips.
“I can… go on my own.”
As if making a resolution, Chae Yoon moved her feet.
Her steps were quite resolute, but that momentum didn’t last long.
“Uhoh?”
Seeing Chae Yoon stagger after just two steps, Jae Oh let out a knowing sigh, and then suddenly scooped Chae Yoon into his arms.
Chae Yoon, feeling her body being lifted, opened her eyes wide and looked at Jae Oh.
“Why…?”
As if asking why he picked her up, Jae Oh answered on his own.
“You can’t even walk properly.”
“No, I can go on my own.”
“…”
“I said I can go on my own…”
Even after saying it twice and receiving no reaction from Jae Oh, a hint of irritation brushed across her slightly flushed face from the alcohol.
The displeased expression, her eyes blurry from the alcohol, and her small lips moving as she grumbled and complained was it because he was seeing all of this for the first time?
Jae Oh couldn’t take his eyes off Chae Yoon, who was pouting her lips while leaning on him.
Meanwhile, Chae Yoon, who was confused by Jae Oh not showing any particular action after lifting her up, looked up at him.
Their gazes met squarely.
If she hadn’t been drunk, she wouldn’t have been able to look at him directly. On top of that, maybe it was because of the darkness, but the intensity of their gazes felt particularly strong. However, none of this was visible to the drunk Chae Yoon.
“Let me down.”
She asked to be let down again, and Jae Oh withdrew his gaze from Chae Yoon and moved his feet.
He didn’t even find it worth replying to the woman who could barely take two steps before almost falling, but Chae Yoon, who took his silence as ignoring her, furrowed her brow and spoke.
“Oppa.”
“…”
“I can go by myself…”
“If you don’t think it’s a good idea to sleep in the garden like this, then just stop.”
Jae Oh cut Chae Yoon’s words off, showing no intention of letting her down no matter what she said.
Yet, he thought to himself.
Even if he said this, Chae Yoon’s stubbornness wouldn’t break.
However, contrary to his expectation, there was no response.
Moreover, the sudden silence felt strange, so he looked down to check on Chae Yoon’s condition.
“What’s this, are you asleep?”
In the meantime, her face, which had fallen asleep, was peaceful.
It hadn’t been long since she asked to be let down, and she was already asleep.
“You’re more unpredictable than I thought.”
Though he said that, seeing her asleep in his arms gave him a sense of stability and a strange relief.
It was the sense of stability that Chae Yoon belonged by his side like this.
[“Shall we get a divorce?”]It was the relief that those words were just one of Chae Yoon’s many drunken remarks.
So, he thought he didn’t have to attribute any meaning to them, and even rationalized it to himself. But the saying “in vino veritas” put the brakes on his thoughts.
‘If the words about divorce were sincere…’
As he made the assumption, his handsome face crumpled.
The sense of stability he had felt just moments ago evaporated, and an inexplicable anxiety surged.
He didn’t know why he was feeling such emotions, but one thing was certain.
He had never once thought about divorcing Chae Yoon.
And, he didn’t like the fact that such words came from Chae Yoon’s mouth.
His gaze on Chae Yoon, who was in his arms, darkened.
Her long eyelashes, as if showing off, were quietly closed and then suddenly opened wide.
Chae Yoon, who saw the white ceiling filling her sight, abruptly sat up.
Blinking her dry eyes, she looked around and fortunately, she was in her room.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
