“To not let the teacher get sick, to not leave the teacher, and to protect the teacher dearly, Ren promised.”
“…….?”
“So… ”
Tane leaned toward Sharti and whispered softly into her ear, creating a makeshift barrier with her hand.
“Teacher can be greedy.”
“……!”
Startled, Sharti, Tane giggled.
Then, with a small body, Tane hugged Sharti tightly.
“Like a grandma, like a sister, I’ll also protect the teacher.”
It was an innocent aspiration.
Sharti sniffled, her nose twitching, and her eyes reddened.
As Sharti embraced Tane, the sound of a child’s laughter tickled her ears.
And Ren, watching with clenched fists, relaxed his posture, grabbing his waist with one hand.
Including Tane, the Bireta family was a presence that could break down Sharti’s iron wall in an instant.
“No. It seems like Sharti herself is breaking down the wall, limited to her family.”
It was an absolute area that Ren, as he is now, could not enter.
Ren pondered the information Tane had shared with him.
“As long as there’s a chance I’ll leave, the distance between Shara and me won’t change.”
In front of Tane, he didn’t show any signs, but in reality, he was in a rather shocked state.
“A burden.”
He had never dared to think of Sharti’s boundless kindness, which saved his life, took care of him, and even fed him, in such a way.
Ren reflected seriously.
“I must have acted in a way that made her feel that way.”
And more firmly, he resolved to follow Sharti.
In an unfamiliar place, he had to concentrate on helping Sharti with her treatment, and he had to protect her.
“It doesn’t seem like a village atmosphere that’s friendly to Shara. I have to prevent them from making fun of Shara recklessly.”
Above all, Ren didn’t like the thin, colorless-haired young man with glasses.
More precisely, he was uncomfortable with the memories shared only between Sharti and Ash.
Moreover, the changing expressions and gaze every time he saw Sharti were not pleasant.
“My instincts aren’t good.”
Since Ash appeared, he instinctively had a bad feeling.
He felt like he would regret it if he let Sharti go alone.
“……. ”
Ren, looking at the approaching Sharti, temporarily shook off his conscience.
As Sharti stood in front of him, she handed him a note.
“I won’t let something that bothers you take care of my body. Sh, I promise.”
“……. ”
Sharti, who was glaring at him, finally nodded with a small sigh.
At the moment when his expression was about to relax with the long-awaited permission, he felt a gaze that seemed to pierce him, and Ren nodded as blankly as possible.
Feeling Sharti’s gaze, who seemed to be scolding him, Tane proudly laughed, sensing satisfaction.
“Ren works hard. He’ll receive kindness.”
And Tane also made a resolution.
“I have to let Grandma know.”
The epidemic was by no means a problem that an individual could handle alone.
To ensure Sharti’s safety, they needed help.
That evening, Tane immediately informed Bireta of Sharti’s news about the field treatment.
The day she left for the field treatment was two days later.
During that time, Sharti prepared medicine for emergencies and collected information on cases and details suspected of being the disease spread in Ash’s village.
She received Tane’s assistance in the former and Bireta’s help in the latter.
Finally, on the morning of the departure day, Sharti, carrying only a business trip bag, left with Ren, who had a backpack on his back.
“Be careful.”
“Sh, you know your health is the most important, right? Don’t overexert yourself.”
“It’s Ren who should handle the difficult things!”
Embracing the worries of the Bireta family, Sharti set off on a business trip with Ren.
‘I wonder how long it will take. When I went alone, it took about a week.’
The winter mountains often had frozen ground and snow cover, making it inevitable for the pace to slow down. Especially for Sharti, if she walked too long, her legs would stiffen, and she couldn’t maintain a fast pace.
Fortunately, at this time, the weather was not too cold yet, and there was no news of snow. The problem was the thick fog that spread out in front of them.
‘Assuming I don’t lose my direction, will I arrive within four days?’
It was a bit worrisome to leave on a day with dense fog, but it was good for avoiding people’s eyes when climbing the mountain.
Due to the thickening fog, Ren also had the bandages removed from his body, feeling stifled.
‘I have to speed up as much as possible. I can’t afford to delay.’
As the departure was later than expected, Sharti had made some preparations in her own way.
Sharti, even while studying about the epidemic, occasionally went down to the village to visit wounded soldiers. Finally, the wounded soldiers who had recovered enough to descend the mountain as the fog cleared decided to leave the village.
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
