Inside the investigation room, Seon-yeong’s complexion was pale as she paced around.
Now, what should I do? How can I handle this?
Seon-yeong’s face momentarily turned as if she was about to cry. When she heard the news that her daughter, who was supposed to go to the police station for a witness interview, suddenly had her status changed to a suspect, she couldn’t help but doubt her ears.
How on earth could things have escalated to this point? It was beyond comprehension. A warrant had been prepared as if they were waiting, and she was said to have been handcuffed on the spot.
A bolt from the blue in a clear sky! What on earth…
As she sighed, biting her nails, the door to the investigation room opened. And there, entering through that door, was her daughter. Seon-yeong was so shocked that she felt like fainting at the absurdity.
“Hu… Mom!”
The moment Seon-yeong saw her, Hyeon-a burst into tears. Either she had already cried a lot, or the black lines of smeared makeup under her eyes were vivid. On her wrists, which she had politely clasped together, metallic bracelets sparkled.
“Mommy…!”
“Hyeon-a, Oh Hyeon-a! Our daughter in this world!”
Seon-yeong rushed towards her as if in shock, covering her face, but no amount of smearing would make the mess of makeup salvageable.
“Oh Hyeon-a! Instead of crying, tell me straight. What happened?!”
“I don’t know! I don’t know!”
Without explaining anything, Hyeon-a just kept crying. The detective who had been plugging his ears against the crying sound coming from the police station added an explanation.
“Miss Oh Hyeon-a has been arrested for causing harm to a child and falsely accusing Miss Yoo Dajeong of the crime of innocence and child abuse.”
Seon-yeong jumped up.
“This can’t be! Our Hyeon-a would never do that. She can’t even kill a single bug, how could she cause harm to a child?”
“Mother, you may want to believe that, but the evidence is there. We confirmed a scene where Oh Hyeon-a injured the body of Yoo Si-woo, who was asleep, on the CCTV inside the office.”
“That, that’s fake! There is no CCTV in the office.”
“Now, now, don’t say things like that to me. If you have other evidence, please submit it. Well, it seems unlikely that you’ll prove innocence, though.”
The pessimistic detective, who spoke, said that there was about 10 minutes left for the visitation and then left.
Seon-yeong’s rough steps, leaving the police station, abruptly came to a halt. Unable to overcome her anger, her hands eventually grabbed the secretary who followed behind.
Smack!
She slapped her hand on the secretary’s face, who was telling her not to leave, and all she could see was the sight of her daughter clinging and crying, hanging on desperately.
“Why on earth are you handling this like this! Why is there only one lawyer?!”
Even after getting slapped, the secretary explained the situation without any change.
“Having more lawyers won’t solve the problem right away.”
“No… this can’t be! I can’t bear it if our Hyeon-a goes to jail! Try applying for bail or something, huh? I’ll pay any amount for bail if needed!”
“Since the investigation is still ongoing, applying for bail is not possible.”
This time, the lawyer spoke. Seon-yeong’s face contorted with despair.
“Rather, Chairwoman. It seems like you should go to the company first.”
“The company? Is the company the problem now?”
She shot back with an annoyed tone. The perplexed secretary cautiously explained the situation.
“Well… it seems like the news of Ms. Hyeon-a’s arrest has reached the chairman.”
Facing the large door, Seon Seon-yeong took a deep breath. The hand holding the doorknob tightened with tension, but she gathered herself and forcefully opened the door.
“Hu… Chairwoman! What do we do about our Hyeon-a?”
Seon-yeong called out to her husband, covering her tearful mouth with a handkerchief, hoping that if she cried, she could somehow conceal the tears.
At that moment, with a thunderous crack, fragments from somewhere flew and slashed across her forehead. As she grasped her forehead, the shattered remains of a laptop, halfway fallen and displaying frozen images of Hyeon-a, blinked as they scattered. Not only that, pictures scattered in the air like autumn leaves, fluttering down over Seon-yeong’s head.
Picking up a few fallen photos at her feet, Seon-yeong was shocked beyond words. The photos showed Hyeon-a sharing an intimate moment with Kim Yeong-jun inside the office. And another picture showed Hyeon-a doing something to the sleeping child’s body in the same place.
The moment Seon-yeong saw the photos, her scalp tingled. Though a liquid sensation seeped through her fingers pressed against her forehead, perhaps because she was under a lot of stress, she couldn’t feel the pain right away.
“Chairwoman. What in the world… Who could have sent such an absurd thing?”
“What matters now is who sent it?!”
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
