In this awkward situation, the person who would feel most embarrassed would be Sooho, who suddenly got involved in a blind date. However, he remained calm.
He explained, “I tend to be cautious about meetings.”
“How can you know whether it’ll be a good meeting or not without even trying?”
“It seems the issue is not the person right now but the timing.”
Professor Choi Taehyuk meant that his appearance at this moment was the problem.
“It seems like someone like you, who lives so systematically, suits someone like Seunghee. Call her right away.”
When Taehyuk ordered her to call Seunghee, Nayeong was taken aback.
“Call her right now?”
Seeing her hesitate and not make the call, Taehyuk took out his phone and called Seunghee directly.
This was a golden opportunity to get rid of the annoying man; what reason could he have to hesitate?
“Come to the coffee shop in front of Hapjeong Station Exit 3 right now.”
“Your blind date is here.”
[My blind date?]“Yes, he has a handsome face, good physique, works for a major company, and has a mature personality.”
Taehyuk interrupted for a moment and asked Jang Sooho.
“Are your parents alive?”
Sooho nodded unexpectedly.
Taehyuk immediately conveyed this to the call.
“Your parents seem to be excellent as well. Aren’t you coming?”
[I’ll come right away!]
Taehyuk hung up and told the two with a satisfied expression.
“He’s coming now.”
Sooho looked at her with eyes full of words.
Nayeong had nothing else to do but awkwardly smile.

Seeing Sooho and Seunghee greeting each other, the two left immediately.
In the returning car, both were silent.
“…….”
“…….”
It took a long time for Nayeong to ask.
“How did you come to that café?”
It seemed strange, no matter how much she thought about it.
“I was waiting in front of the hospital to talk to you today.”
So, she followed her in her car after seeing her take a taxi.
Taehyuk didn’t feel good about why Professor Choi Taehyuk did that, even though he understood it intellectually.
When she fell silent again, Taehyuk looked at her closely.
“Shall we just forget about everything?”
Her lie and his chasing her today.
Nayeong turned her head out of the window and answered.
“No, I don’t want to.”
Nayeong couldn’t do that. She had made a bigger mistake.
But for Taehyuk, it didn’t sound like she was angry, and that bothered him.
It seemed like a lovers’ quarrel that he had only heard about.
Although he wanted to say he was wrong and reconcile, there was something lingering in his mind.
In the end, the two parted ways without properly finishing their conversation that day.
⭐️⭐️⭐️
Nayeong couldn’t rest even after returning home and waited for Seunghee to return comfortably.
Although Sooho thought that Seunghee wouldn’t make a mistake, she couldn’t shake off the uneasy feeling.
Beep beep beep.
Hearing the sound of the door lock, Nayeong walked to the entrance.
Soon, the front door opened, and Seunghee came in.
“How did it go?”
When Seunghee looked at her, asking, Nayeong’s heart thumped nervously.
Without answering, Seunghee walked past her to the sofa.
Thump.
Collapsing onto the sofa, Seunghee didn’t seem in a good mood, so Nayeong didn’t need to check to know that the blind date didn’t go well.
Nayeong felt sorry for Seunghee.
“What did Jang Sooho say to you?”
“He said I was at fault.”
“What?”
She blamed someone else because she herself felt uneasy?
She didn’t think much of Sooho, but she was disappointed.
“You’re not at fault, Seunghee.”
Nayeong comforted Seunghee.
However, Seunghee straightened herself and diagnosed her own situation.
“Listening to what Mr. Jang Sooho said, it really seems like that.”
“What on earth did Mr. Jang Sooho say to you?”
Seunghee lifted her head to look at Nayeong.
“He’s concerned about the person who told me that he has no interest in me, not that I want to date a man.”
Nayeong immediately shook her head.
“No, that doesn’t seem right.”
Although Chahyun was indeed a good friend to Taehyuk, he was also a bit of a playboy.
To him, women were just passing figures.
Nayeong didn’t want Seunghee to become one of them.
“I think so.”
“No, it’s not!”
The two repeated the same words for a while, until one of them got tired.

The next morning.
Nayeong left her house at the usual early hour.
She had stayed up late arguing with Seunghee last night, but it wasn’t unbearable.
She had become accustomed to a life with insufficient sleep.
Nayeong, leaving the apartment building, spotted a familiar car and stopped in her tracks.
It was clearly the car of Professor Choi Taehyuk, who had given her a ride to this place yesterday.
Nayeong turned and walked towards where the car was parked.
Finding Professor Choi Taehyuk sleeping in the car, Nayeong made a bewildered expression.
Seeing that he was wearing the same clothes as yesterday, it didn’t seem like he had slept at home and come out early.
What on earth was he doing?
Tap, tap.
Nayeong knocked on the window with her hand.
It wasn’t until she had knocked several times that Professor Choi Taehyuk opened his eyes and looked at her.
When he raised the seat and opened the window, Nayeong asked as if interrogating.
“Why did you sleep here?”
“Uh, I just fell asleep trying to organize my thoughts.”
“What thoughts are you trying to organize?”
It was uncomfortable to see him suffering by sleeping in a car when he could comfortably think on his bed.
Taehyuk looked at her hand and asked, “Why aren’t you wearing the ring I gave you?”
At the mention of the ring, her pupils shook noticeably.
The Villainous Demon Lord Laid an Egg for Her (Female-Dominated)
Several months after transmigrating into a book, Yu Wu found herself facing the demon lord Li You, who could no longer conceal his dragon horns. With one hand on her aching waist and the other gripping a sharp sword, she stared at him.
The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:
“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”
Yu Wu rubbed her temples. Putting aside the taboo against bloodshed during pregnancy, wasn’t it this very man who willingly walked into her trap that day?!
Warnings:
- Male pregnancy.
- Height ratios are set to mirror typical male-female height proportions.
- Characters include a foot-loving demon lord and an eldest daughter from an immortal family’s concubine lineage.
