“Did you see me last week?”
“Yes. Around the end of the movie. You seemed quite moved.”
“Ah…”
Lee Soo asked with a slightly embarrassed face, while Ji Ho answered nonchalantly.
Given that he even used the term ‘moved’, it seemed like he was implying that he had seen her crying.
In a soft whisper, Ji Ho spoke, slightly leaning towards Lee Soo, who was unable to mask her expression.
“Did you make it home okay yesterday?”
Lee Soo jerked her shoulder and subtly leaned back.
There really was no need for him to speak this close.
“Yes.”

As she turned her head, she felt gazes pouring towards Ji Ho at the edge of her field of vision.
From the tiered lecture hall, the view of the front was perfectly visible when sitting in the back.
‘Ah, this is uncomfortable. If I’m next to Seo Ji Ho, it’s going to be like this all the time.’
Lee Soo only looked straight ahead from then on, but whether it was her imagination or not, she felt a prickling sensation at the back of her head.
Ji Ho was still leaning slightly towards Lee Soo.
“Is your stomach okay?”
“Yes.”
“That’s good.”
Lee Soo glanced at Ji Ho as she said this.
“Are you okay? You said you drank a lot yesterday.”

“As you can see, I’m okay.”
The ease in Ji Ho’s smiling face was palpable.
“Ji Ho can drink endlessly.”
Lee Soo’s eyes widened at Ha Joon’s unexpected interruption and she looked at Ji Ho.
“That’s a bit of an exaggeration.”
Ji Ho frowned slightly and shook his head.
“Min Woo must’ve taken quite a blow to his ego because of Ji Ho yesterday. He bragged about his tolerance and then he ended up passing out spectacularly. I don’t even know if he managed to come to school today.”
Ha Joon said this, looking quite pleased, as if every junior had suffered at the hands of Min Woo due to alcohol.
“It was really something to see yesterday.”
Lee Soo furrowed her brows slightly. A drinking contest, how foolish.

Considering the alcohol Ji Ho drank before he started drinking with senior Min Woo, he must’ve had over 10 bottles of soju. Yet, there wasn’t a trace of alcohol on his face.
It was simply astounding that he was unfazed after drinking that much.
His handsome face seemed to evade even a hangover, only exhibiting tranquility.
((()))((()))
As soon as class started, Lee Soo immersed herself in it to a terrifying degree.
While it was a leisurely liberal arts class for others, she listened as if it was a compulsory subject for her major.
As if no one else was around her, Lee Soo’s eyes and ears were only open to the professor.
The straight posture. The sparkling eyes. The serious expression that didn’t want to miss anything.
It always looked like this, as if it was a habit etched into her body.
The intellectual aura she gave off at first impression was not just an image she projected with her appearance, but her actual personality.

A perfect model student.
Ji Ho, feeling a playful urge, deliberately leaned towards Lee Soo to talk or stared at her as if to show off. However, Lee Soo’s focus was never disturbed.
No wonder she got into Korea University’s medical school as a freshman.
Thinking that he shouldn’t disturb her anymore.
In reality, the reason Ji Ho’s head kept turning towards Lee Soo ever since he first sat next to her was because of the familiar scent she emitted.
Unknowingly feeling proud thinking that she wore the perfume he gifted, the scent that permeated during class time made him involuntarily lean towards it.
The faint scent strangely became more intense as time passed.
It felt like all the air he breathed was dyed in that scent.
It was certainly the same fragrance, but it was oddly different.
The smell mixed with Lee Soo’s body scent was more aromatic.

‘Is this the good smell Lee Soo was talking about.’
If it was this scent, it felt like it would stay in his memory for a long time.
This week, after Lee Soo’s tears from last week, it was because of Lee Soo’s scent…
It didn’t seem like he’d remember much of the class content.
Throughout all this, Lee Soo was still focusing solely on the front without wavering.
((()))((()))
“Guys, I have an appointment, so I’ll go ahead.”
As soon as class ended, Ha Joon hastily bid his farewell and left.
Lee Soo, having no choice, exited the lecture hall with Ji Ho.
With students from various classes ending at the same time, the descending stairs were crowded without a spot to place a foot.

While Lee Soo was completely oblivious to it, Ji Ho walked with his arm extended behind her back as if to protect her from the crowd of people.
Thanks to the space Ji Ho made, Lee Soo was able to comfortably descend the stairs without getting pushed.
When Lee Soo seemed a bit hurried, Ji Ho asked.
“Do you also have an appointment?”
“Yeah. Dong Woo is waiting for me.”
“Why?”
Even when she went to the club room to return her student card last week, Lee Soo came with Dong Woo.
Not only that, he saw them together on Wednesday night.
“Dong Woo also takes a class here. The class ends at the same time.”
“And so?”

“Huh?”
“Does he wait for you every week?”
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.”
