“Young Master, that is…….”
The steward was about to say something with a rigid face.
A noise rushed in like a wave from afar.
“The Lord is coming!”
It was the return of the Lord, the chieftain, whom we had been waiting for three days.
Unlike my bewildered self, Danmokbi, uninterested, pulled my arm.
“……Let’s go.”
Go back? Of course, we have to go back. I’m grateful that you came to pick me up, though.
“Hold on, Young Master. I need to take my share of the work I’ve done.”
I worked hard for three days! To eat delicious food!
When I stood firm without being dragged by Danmokbi and said so, the steward slapped my shoulder with a bluish face.
“Hey, you insensitive thing!”
“What do you mean, insensitive! I’ve worked my bones off for three days! Of course, I should take it with me!”
“Oh dear, the Lord is coming.”
The steward grumbled and snatched a tray covered with a cloth from a passerby maid, and held it out to me.
“Take it! Take it! Take this tray!”
“Now, hold on, Steward! That’s for the Lord’s room.”
The maid tried to stop him in alarm, but when the steward glared, she finally backed away quietly.
‘Oh yeah! It’s heavy! It smells delicious too.’
What a windfall. If it’s a tray for the Lord, it must be filled with delicious food.
As I took the tray, I recognized the face of the maid who had been carrying it. It was my roommate.
She glanced at Danmokbi and whispered softly.
“Yeona, are you okay?”
“Eh? What?”
“That person over there…….”
Just as I was about to look back at Danmokbi, the steward scolded me again.
“Hurry up! Go quickly!”
“Goodness, I’m going.”
I don’t know why this man is in such a hurry. I hummed a tune as I carried the tray back to the outbuilding with Danmokbi.
Actually, Danmokbi didn’t say a word all the way, but I didn’t mind. Danmokbi was originally a man of few words.
I realized that something had gone wrong when we arrived at Danmokbi’s place.
Just as I put down the tray and was preparing for a meal, Danmokbi grabbed my wrist.
“……Where have you been?”
The hand holding my wrist trembled with force. I was taken aback by the size of his broad, long hand, then bitten my lip at Danmokbi’s desperate expression.
Danmokbi looked as forlorn and tired as a lost child.
‘He must have been very worried about me.’
Could it be that no one told Danmokbi what I was doing for three days? I smiled awkwardly and answered.
“They said they need to throw a feast for the Lord’s return, you know? They were short on hands.”
“Why are you doing such work?”
His growling, low voice sounded dangerous. I thought, understandably.
‘Right. This boy is Danmokbi.’
The final villain of the original story, capable of heinous atrocities.
Though Danmokbi was always gentle and quiet, he had the energy to commit such crimes within.
I was worried that I might accidentally turn him into a budding villain.
‘Even I would be angry if the maid I spent three days with disappeared without a word.’
He must care for me so much. I shrugged my shoulders and whimpered.
“Ow, ow.”
“……!!”
Danmokbi’s hand, which was gripping my wrist, loosened as soon as I spoke. He apologized, looking like he had never been angry.
“II’m sorry. I was too surprised too…….”
Wanting to pat his head at that sight, was that too meddlesome of me? I made a louder fuss to show I wasn’t angry.
“I was dragged into it. It wasn’t my intention. Do you think I wanted to work? Look at this. I even peeled the skin off my finger while peeling garlic.”
It wasn’t a joke. I had peeled so much garlic that the tips of my fingers had blistered and turned red. From Danmokbi’s black eyes, a small spark flew out as he saw my fingertips.
“Who made you do it?”
“It’s said that all the maids usually gather to work together. It seems that they always prepare so grandly for the return of the Lord and the eldest young master.”
“……”
Danmokbi tightly shut his mouth. It was only natural for him, always confined, not to know certain things.
I laughed, and casually unwrapped the cloth. Various steamed dishes appeared on the tray. My mouth watered at the sight of meat simmered in soy sauce, various salads, and fruits I had never seen before.
“Wow, at least it’s rewarding to bring back such delicious food. Eat quickly, young master.”
“I don’t want to.”
I reached out with chopsticks, but Danmokbi sharply turned his head. I drooped my eyebrows like a puppy.
“You really won’t eat it? I worked hard, imagining you eating it.”
“……”
Danmokbi slowly turned his head, silent as if he were angry at my words. I smiled broadly and offered him a piece of meat.
“Here, ah.”
Danmokbi’s eyes seemed to quiver, but he obediently opened his mouth towards me.
It felt like feeding a chick. I smiled widely and asked,
“Is it delicious?”
Danmokbi, who was chewing, spoke in a small voice,
“It’s tastier when you make it. Spicy soup, and mixed noodles.”
“Really?”
That made me happy. I was really doing my best to feed Danmokbi.
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.”
