“Oh, Attorney. Why did you suddenly…?”

Junhwi’s neatly lifted forehead could be heard from the tray’s direction.

“Why not eat together?”

“No, no. That’s fine. It’s okay.”

It’s still awkward.

Yeonwoo quickly glanced around the restaurant. As expected, it felt like people who saw the two of them together were making comments.

“Attorney Kim knows that you’re my woman, so what’s the big deal?”

“Ugh, be quiet! Just quietly eat your meal…”

Confidently, he tossed a thick beef patty onto Yeonwoo’s plate, who was still shocked.

The main side dish today, beef patty, was only given two per person, and Junhwi had generously given away half of them.

This is how this man expresses his gratitude. Smiling smoothly, Yeonwoo focused on her meal again.

“Who were you talking to?”

Junhwi, who glanced at Yeonwoo’s phone, asked. In the group chat, ‘ㅋㅋㅋ’ and colorful emojis were flashing.

“My friends. Kyung-ah and Ji-hye. Kyung-ah is getting married soon. We were deciding where to meet to receive the wedding invitation.”

“When can I meet those friends of yours?”

“I’ll introduce you to my friends? Attorney?”
Junhwi’s casually dismissive words were either a joke or a sincere remark. Yeonwoo, in an attempt to gauge it, tilted her head with a slight smile.

“Why haven’t you introduced us until now? Am I embarrassing to bring out somewhere?”

“No, don’t misunderstand. It’s just that the attorney is always busy and didn’t have time.”

“If you make time, you can find it.”

“Is that a sincere remark?”

Junhwi paused, stirring the soup with his spoon, and looked directly at Yeonwoo.

“I’m curious. I want to see them too. Kim Yeonwoo’s best friends.”

To understand Yeonwoo’s intentions about marriage, wouldn’t it be good to approach people around her one by one? Perhaps, by building a friendship with Yeonwoo’s friends, he might receive help someday.

However, Junhwi’s plan encountered a setback even before it began.

“Sure, you can join. But, um, we planned to go to a karaoke place. Is that okay?”

Junhwi’s well-coordinated chopstick movements abruptly stopped. His hesitant actions came to a halt.

“…”

“We should boast to our friends that we’re bringing our partners!”

As Yeonwoo tried to bring her phone close immediately, Junhwi grabbed her hand. Yeonwoo’s eyes playfully sparkled even more.

“My friends are curious. They want to meet us together.”

“I suddenly remembered something important.”

“Then, shall we postpone it to next week? I’ll adjust it to the attorney’s schedule.”

“I’ll be busy next week too. It won’t work.”

Yeonwoo, who had been holding back her laughter, finally shook her head.

“Yes, right. My boyfriend doesn’t have time to go to karaoke. It’s definitely not because he can’t sing.”

Junhwi, with narrow eyes, glanced at Yeonwoo and only eyed his plate, pretending to be interested.

This woman probably doesn’t know. How desperately she agonizes over and over again to have a bright smile in front of him even at this moment.

But as planned, things didn’t seem to be unraveling easily. Kim Yeonwoo was indeed an exception.

He needed to come up with a different strategy. Junhwi’s mind began to work busily once again.

The invigorated sun made it clear that autumn had arrived. With the blowing wind, the humidity disappeared, and clear days continued.

Now, Yeonwoo’s birthday was just around the corner, and Junhwi was still on edge.

Side things like presents had already been prepared, but he hadn’t decided on the most important thing.

Where and how to bring up something without making Yeonwoo uncomfortable. While still effectively confirming her true feelings.

And whether or not to do the proposal event that everyone does.

According to the traditional Korean proposal methods he found on the internet, there were two main types of locations: a hotel room with a fantastic night view or renting a space like a restaurant or cafe.

The commonality was that no matter where it was, it was filled with balloons, candles, flower petals, and making a grand gesture. All designed to be photographed well and bragged about on social media.
The flashy and romantic decorations were not to Junhwi’s liking, and the problem was presenting a ring in the unfamiliar setting of a hanbok store. However, to inquire about marriage, a good and formal place was necessary. The confession of ‘liking’ that had casually taken place in the conference room lingered as a debt of the heart. However, just in case, if Yeonwoo were to reject marriage, what good would the meticulously arranged formality and atmosphere do? Chaotic thoughts kept popping up incessantly. Junhwi’s focus was solely on Kim Yeonwoo’s birthday.

“Attorney Kwon, may I come in?”

So Junhwi forgot completely that it was time for Kim Seung-ho to come for a review.

After a knock, Junhwi entered and, pointing to the sofa, gestured for Kim Seung-ho to sit.

“This is the expected timeline for the L Airlines lawsuit that you mentioned.”

“I’ll take a look. Thank you.”

“When reviewing, I attached relevant statutes as notes. I’ll delete the notes for the final version.”

As Junhwi, sitting opposite, carefully read through the materials, Kim Seung-ho’s brow gradually furrowed.

While Kim Seung-ho might think that Junhwi was deeply concentrating on reviewing the results, that wasn’t the case.

Junhwi was forcibly inserting content he didn’t even see into his eyes. After reading the same sentence two or three times like that, he finally realized.

Can’t focus at all.

Waiting for the next instructions, Junhwi wished to remove the radiant Kim Seung-ho and seat Yeonwoo in his place.

Do I need an event? What do I want? Should I just straightforwardly ask?

While contemplating, the awkwardly shining Kim Seung-ho glanced at him uncomfortably. Suddenly, the useless information about Kim Seung-ho that Yeonwoo had shared before overlapped in Junhwi’s mind.

Kim Seung-ho had successfully held an anniversary event for his girlfriend at a hotel; it was hard to make a reservation there. She looked beautiful, and he envied it; that was undoubtedly the content.

…It should be at a hotel. The event that everyone else does.

It’s not like I don’t have the ability. I can’t let my woman envy others.

The time spent pondering was instantly colored decisively. Quickly making up his mind, Junhwi briskly flipped through the documents.

“Attorney, is there anything you’re not satisfied with, perhaps…?”

Junhwi’s composed eyebrows twisted mercilessly.

Despite Kim Seung-ho likely knowing that he was carefully reviewing the results, in reality, that wasn’t the case.

Junhwi was forcefully trying to concentrate on content that didn’t catch his eye. After reading the same sentence two or three times like that, he realized.

Can’t focus at all.

Waiting for the next instructions, Junhwi wished to remove the radiant Kim Seung-ho and seat Yeonwoo in his place.

Do I need an event? What do I want? Should I just straightforwardly ask?

It’s not like I don’t have
“Kim Attorney.”

“Yes, Attorney.”

“Let’s ask a question.”

“······.”

“Which hotel was it?”

Three. Two. One.

“Ah! Oh, um······!”

The time it took for the quick-witted rookie to fully comprehend the randomly thrown remark from all directions was precisely three seconds.

Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman

When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…

One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.

Synopsis

During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.

Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.

Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”

Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.

Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”

With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.

Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?

He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
