So, Seung Joon, having received his call and come to the bar, looked at Tae Hyuk with a big smile.
“Did your personality change while you were in America? Or is it just today that you’re strange?”
Suddenly he called him, didn’t he ask about his younger sister, didn’t he expose his dark history through his sister? And he even suggested drinking first.
None of it was in line with the Tae Hyuk that Seung Joon knew.
Tae Hyuk, who was just drinking, asked in a blunt voice.
“Do you know Mun Na Young, a first year resident in our department?”
Seung Joon nodded at the familiar name.
“Of course I know. She’s pretty, smart, and haughty. She’s my sister’s classmate, the Madonna of that year.”
At the annoying title of Madonna, Tae Hyuk furrowed his brow.
“So she had many men?”
Seung Joon shook his head.
“She was sharp in that regard. She turned down every man who confessed to her. She said it interfered with her studies.”
But on the day before starting her residency, she slept with him.
So from the beginning, Mun Na Young intended to end it with him after one night.
A strong tension entered Tae Hyuk’s jaw.
He drank the remaining alcohol in one gulp and put down the empty glass and asked Seung Joon.
“Do you know who the men who confessed to Mun Na Young are?”
Seung Joon made an expression of not understanding.
“Why would you want to know that?”
He wasn’t the type to play a losing game, so the sacrifice wasn’t noble, it just felt like he was at a loss.
So he needed a way to relieve his stress.
When she said she would continue to stay in the gastroenterology surgery department, Chief Park sincerely praised her decision.
“Even if Professor Choi is harsh, he’s a doctor with a lot to learn from. So try to adapt well.”
Na Young still found it awkward to train under Professor Choi Tae Hyuk, but she decided not to run away.
She couldn’t bear to be treated as a pathetic resident by that man more than anyone else.
She desperately wanted to gain his recognition.
The first year of residency was in charge of the emergency room, so there were inevitably many oncall shifts.
Especially on weekends when everyone else was off, it seemed particularly tiring mentally.
Having a moment to sit down in the station chair, a postit note caught her eye.
These were the qualities that a great surgeon had to have.
She was a woman, so she thought she already had one, and she was laughing aimlessly when the emergency room call came in.
A male teenager had been in a car accident, lost consciousness, and was brought to the emergency room. His abdomen was severely distended and his blood pressure kept dropping.
“Huh? If the CT results show aortic aneurysm rupture, isn’t this a patient for vascular surgery?”
[“The vascular transplant surgery professor is currently outside, we don’t have an immediate surgeon. Who’s the professor over there?”] If it was an aortic aneurysm rupture, the patient didn’t have time to wait for the vascular transplant surgery professor to come to the hospital.The likelihood of death was high in the moving ambulance if they tried to find a surgeon and transfer to another hospital.
As an emergency patient where every minute and second was critical, Na Young felt her nerves rising throughout her body.
She hurriedly made a phone call to the onduty professor who could perform surgery right away.
It was Professor Choi Tae Hyuk.
As soon as he heard her explanation, Professor Choi Tae Hyuk spoke quickly.
[“Secure the operating room right away and finish all the surgery preparations before I arrive.”] After hanging up the phone, she hastily arranged the operating room, contacted the anesthesiology department, and moved the patient to the operating room.As soon as Professor Choi Tae Hyuk entered the operating room, he picked up the scalpel.
The moment his firm hand with the scalpel made a bold incision into the patient’s abdomen, bright red blood gushed out violently, spraying all over and covering her face.
Na Young, who was still wearing her glasses, had her vision turn bright red as her lenses became stained with blood.
Everything she saw seemed like hell.
“Suction!”
Professor Choi Tae Hyuk shouted savagely, but Na Young was stiffened, unable to move.
How could this patient survive when they had bled out so much?
The patient’s blood pressure dropped alarmingly fast.
Fear of death completely consumed her.
The surgery that started at night didn’t end until sunrise.
And the patient didn’t die.
The vascular transplant surgery professor, who was hurriedly contacted and ran to join the operation, managed to peel off the ruptured aorta and replace it with an artificial aorta, thus saving the patient.
Na Young took off her glasses and slowly wiped the blood off her face.
Even that small action required all her remaining strength.
As Na Young, who just finished washing her face, came out, she found Professor Choi Tae Hyuk leaning against the hallway wall, and she hesitated and stopped.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
