Squeak.
Taehyuk parked the car on the side of the road.
This was a question he absolutely couldn’t ask casually.
“Are you talking about room 1005 in that hotel by any chance?”
Nayoung nodded.
When she confirmed it, Taehyuk didn’t feel good, but rather more bewildered.
Except for meeting him, she had always lived as a polite lady. It was strange for her to say something like this first, no matter how you thought about it.
Is she testing me?
Is it my true feelings, or desire?
Taehyuk felt like he was in a very dangerous test.
“Why aren’t you saying anything?”
As he remained silent, Nayoung turned her head to the side, examining his face.
Taehyuk, with a serious expression, said, “Right now, no matter what I say, it seems like I’ll be wrong.”
In response to his answer, Nayoung chuckled.
While he continued to ponder, Nayoung explained the reason first.
“When I lied, the professor took me to that room.”
She even changed it to a suite.
“Right, but why?”
“Even now, you seem upset like you did that day. So, if we go to that room, you might feel better.”
Logically, her words were correct.
But there was one clear difference between that day and today.
Taehyuk spoke directly.
“That day, I endured it, but today, I can’t. Still, let’s go?”
While waiting for her answer, Taehyuk was holding his breath.
Suddenly, the EDM music he heard at the club that day echoed in his ears like a hallucination.
And he felt the warmth of her cheek touching his.
Taehyuk turned his head and looked to the side.
Her lips, which had touched his cheek and then separated, were as bright as red flower petals.
“Do we still need permission between us?”
Her words dropped into his heart and blossomed into fiery flames.
Her words sounded like a confession of love.
As if he had wandered, fought, endured, and lived through the long and winding years just for this moment.
Even if he could live a perfect life again, it seemed meaningless without this moment.
In the end, he saved her, and she eventually fell in love with him.
Taehyuk felt deeply relieved.
Taehyuk embraced her two cheeks and kissed her on the lips.
As he swallowed her lips, a delightful moan escaped, becoming sweeter and more enchanting as the kiss deepened.
Exhaling hot breath, Taehyuk whispered, “Still, I don’t want to go today.”
Nayoung’s eyelids, which were closed, slightly lifted, and beneath her long eyelashes, her shimmering pupils met his gaze.
Taehyuk, using his firm fingers, gently traced her eye area, furrowing his brow.
“Since I’m not in a good mood, and you want to go, I don’t like the reason too much.”
Hearing his answer, Nayoung smiled tenderly.
He was captivated, disheveled, and happy in her beauty.
There was a farewell dinner at the hospital.
It was a farewell party for the intern who had worked together for a month.
As it was an official occasion where they could drink, the surgeons, after a long time, let loose and raised their glasses.
“But I’ve been wanting to ask, Dr. Moon. Did you receive that ring as a gift?”
Kim Youngmi asked, looking at the ring on her left ring finger.
“Yes.”
When she admitted it, Kim Youngmi sparkled her eyes.
“Could it be from a man?”
“Yes.”
This time, when she readily admitted it, Kim Youngmi loudly announced to the people around.
“Dr. Moon Nayoung finally has a boyfriend.”
Taehyuk, who was drinking at another table, turned his head to look at her.
Not only him, but everyone was surprised, staring at her.
“Oh! Who on earth is the person who succeeded in breaking through the high competition rate?”
“Is he from our hospital?”
“Did Director Ji, whose number is saved on Dr. Moon’s phone, approve of it?”
“Yeah. I’m really curious about who it is.”
People bombarded her with questions.
Meanwhile, Professor Choi Taehyuk, who was sitting alone and smiling, could be seen.
Nayoung looked at the people and said, “He’s unemployed.”
People showed dumbfounded expressions, and Taehyuk spurted out the drink he was having.
Kim Youngmi, sitting next to her, spoke as if she had expected this.
“I knew it. The ring didn’t look all that great.”
Throughout the dinner, people pitied her, leaving behind all the good men around her and dating an unemployed man.
They warned her that she might be in trouble if she judges a man by his appearance.
After the dinner, while drinking a hangover remedy at a nearby convenience store, Taehyuk questioned her.
“Am I unemployed? Or was it not about me?”
Nayoung, with a calm expression, peeled the eggshell and said, “If I had said I’m a professor, from now on, every surgery I perform would be thanks to the professor.”
“In fact, as a first-year, you benefit from minor surgeries. I purposely drew your name during the lottery for it.”
After a few months had passed, Nayoung, looking at Taehyuk with dry eyes, said, “Ah! Now that I think about it, I didn’t meet an unemployed person but a scammer.”
“So why do you keep calling me unemployed! Are you trying to make me quit the hospital? You want to work comfortably.”
Terrified, Taehyuk took a step back.
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.
