Taekyung ruffled his hair and re-entered the creativity room. Minseop lingering around Seoha irked him immensely. The apparent close relationship between Minseop and Minjun also didn’t sit well with him.
‘I can’t always stick by Seoha’s side. What should I do?’
He feared losing Seoha to Minseop.
Once was enough.
He couldn’t lose her again. Losing Seoha this time would mean enduring days more painful than the past five years.
Taekyung sat in the creativity room, watching Minjun play with the coding robot.
Though Taekyung wasn’t overly affectionate or gentle, he observed Minjun closely.
Yunhee, watching them from outside the window, entered the room.
“You’re still here.”
“Director, hello.”

“Mr. Han, not too busy today?”
“Busy, yet not busy.”
Yunhee laughed at Taekyung’s response. Minjun was engrossed in his coding robot.
“Please take good care of Minjun when it’s time to go home.”
“Don’t worry.”
As Yunhee left, Seoha entered. Seeing her, Minjun ran and hugged her.
“Mom!”
“Kim Minjun!”
Seoha looked sternly at Minjun, causing his face to fall.
“Why did you bother the coding teacher without Mom’s permission?”

“Who says I’m bothered?”
Taekyung interjected, looking displeased. Seoha held Minjun tightly.
“I’m sorry he pestered you. And please don’t give him things like this; it’ll spoil him.”
“I didn’t. He’s talented, so I told him to do it. If a child has a gift, it should be nurtured.”
“I’ll handle it.”
“How will you do that? Just keeping him at the kindergarten isn’t enough, is it? Dressing and feeding him isn’t all there is to raising a child.”
Taekyung’s harsh words stung Seoha.
“What do you know to speak so freely?”
“Whether I know or not, leaving Minjun as is would be a loss for him and the country. I’m in education. If I see a child with talent, it’s natural to discover and support it.”
“Focus on other kids, not just Minjun.”

“There’s no one as good as Minjun.”
Taekyung was unabashed. Seoha was speechless.
“And I’ll take him to Yangpyeong from now on. Tell that sturdy teacher or whatever not to bother.”
“Han Taekyung!”
Seoha snapped.
Taekyung winked at Minjun, who swallowed nervously, then tugged at Seoha’s clothes. She looked down at him.
“Mom, I want to go home with the coding teacher…”
“What?”
Seoha was flustered by Minjun’s unexpected request.
“See? My protege wants it. Get ready to leave.”

Taekyung smugly urged Minjun, who tried to suppress his smile.
Seoha’s eyebrow twitched.
She wondered when the two had conspired behind her back.
Seoha felt unsettled, wondering whether she should just watch as they grew closer or intervene to keep them apart.
‘Is blood relation indeed inescapable?’
Seoha sighed secretly to herself.
Her heart ached as she observed the two men, so strikingly alike.
Hyungjin stomped out his cigarette on the ground. Time had passed since Taekyung entered the kindergarten, but he hadn’t come out yet.
Irritation and hunger were creeping up as it passed 6 PM.
“I should have brought some snacks if I knew this would happen.”
He couldn’t leave his spot, fearing he might miss Taekyung.

“Damn it. What’s taking him so long?”
While Hyungjin grumbled, he received a text from Seungae.
[Where are you? How is the money situation?]“Always so impatient.”
Hyungjin replied while grumbling.
[In Yangpyeong. Following Han Taekyung. Will call you later.]He spat out his frustration onto the ground.
Stretching to ease his discomfort, he saw teachers leaving the kindergarten, and among them was Taekyung.
Following them was a familiar face, Seoha.
“Aha, found you. You were hiding here, Kim Seoha.”
And a boy who looked exactly like Han Taekyung.
Seoha and the boy got into Taekyung’s car.

Hyungjin quickly followed in his own car.
Taekyung’s car stopped in front of a villa.
Seoha and the boy got out, followed by Taekyung.
Hyungjin also got out of his car and hid in the shadows of the building to eavesdrop.
“Kid, listen to your mom.”
“Yes, teacher. Thank you.”
The boy addressed Taekyung as a teacher, not as a father.
Hyungjin was puzzled.
Clearly Taekyung’s child, but he seemed unaware.
“Don’t bother to drop us off. We’ve lived well without you.”

“I’m not doing it for you. I’m investing in a talent I’ve spotted. Don’t flatter yourself thinking I’m still hung up on you.”
Taekyung’s blunt words stung Seoha. The boy clung to her.
“Mom, don’t fight with the teacher.”
Seoha’s shoulders, tense with strength, relaxed.
“It’s not a fight. Anyway, we have a long way to go. Let’s leave.”
“Kim Minjun.”
Despite Seoha’s dismissal, Taekyung called the boy’s name and whispered something in his ear.
Joy bloomed on the boy’s face. He subtly nodded at Taekyung.
Seoha’s expression was less than pleased.
In contrast, a smile briefly crossed Taekyung’s face. With his usual impassive face, he said a quick farewell to Seoha and got into his car.

Watching him drive away, Seoha quickly entered the villa with the boy.
The cold atmosphere between the two brought a sly smile to Hyungjin’s lips.
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
