Upon arriving at the apartment complex, Da Jung reached out to Si Woo, who was sleeping in his arms.
“He’s heavy. Come up to the house.”
Da Jung’s eyes narrowed.
“You don’t know the worth of mothers. Mothers can hold, no matter how heavy.”
“You talk as if you’re becoming Iron Man.”
“I might even become Hulk. Maybe.”
“Even if Yoo Da Jung becomes Hulk, she would still be pretty.”
Gently, Jung Hyuk placed his cheek on Si Woo’s forehead, who was sound asleep, then withdrew it. Only then could Si Woo transition into the arms of his mother.
“Be careful. Don’t drop my son.”
“If I drop him, I will throw myself to save him, so don’t worry.”
With a broad smile, Da Jung turned to leave, but her feet halted.
“Oh, Mr. Cha Jung Hyuk.”
“…….”
“If you miss Si Woo, you can come to see him anytime.”
Da Jung stared blankly at her mobile banking screen, blinking slowly.
“₩250,000,000”
She was looking at the screen so much she thought she was seeing things, and kept counting the zeros over and over.
Da Jung tilted her head. Clearly, there was an extra zero.
She had received a call that a representative of chairman Hong would arrive with the contract in an hour.
Asked if she had confirmed the deposit, she hurriedly checked her account balance and found an unexpectedly large amount deposited.
In some cases, architects received a design fee commensurate with this, but it was only for those who were very famous.
Anyway, Da Jung knew best that her value did not yet reach that.
Da Jung hesitated with her cell phone in hand and pressed the call button. The ring was short.
“Hello, chairman Hong. This isn’t about anything else but the deposit……”
As soon as she mentioned the purpose of the call, the other party let out a puzzled breath.
『Do you not find the amount satisfactory?』
Da Jung waved her hand into the void.
“No, no. The amount is just too much.”
『Hmm? Architect Yoo seems to underestimate her own abilities. What I offer is a sign of my high expectations. Why not verify your ability with the results?』
Having ended the call, Da Jung covered her heated cheeks and took a deep breath. It was a bewildering situation and was too good to be true.
It was a feeling that made her heart swell but also brought immense pressure.
“Grandma Kkobun!”
“Oh my! Our little puppy.”
Sook Hee, who had visited Da Jung’s house after a long time, hugged Si Woo, who had jumped into her arms, and showered him with kisses.
With the start of kindergarten vacation, Da Jung needed to go shopping for a few things and asked Sook Hee to look after Si Woo for a while.
Coincidentally, it was also the day when the side dish shop was closed.
Looking at the side dishes that Sook Hee had brought in a full market bag, Da Jung let out a sigh.
“Why would you bring side dishes? It’s hot out.”
“Oh, hush. What’s the big deal about feeding the kids?”
Despite Da Jung’s rebuke, Sook Hee was resolute.
Mom had gone out and Si Woo was sitting in the living room, jotting down his summer vacation homework. Bored in a short while, he couldn’t concentrate and his eyes started to wander around.
Ms. Kkotbun, lying on the sofa, was snoring.
As soon as Si Woo confirmed that his grandmother was asleep, he dashed into his room. Then, he reached his short arm under the bed mattress.

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.
