The Temperature Difference with Him (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 73
After visiting Woo Seon Ho’s office, Soo Jung couldn’t shake the feeling that his words were suspicious, no matter how much she thought about them.
“We need to buy time, too.”
It sounded friendly at first hearing, but Soo Jung, who had weathered countless storms, found the remark ominous. Just in case, she reviewed the hidden camera footage from Woo Seon Ho’s office.
“They say the merger proposal for The Eagles has been finalized.”
While rewatching the previous recordings, Manager Lee’s words suddenly caught her ear.
“A merger proposal? Then Woo Dan Woo and Woo Seon Ho might have already met. Woo Seon Ho is exactly the type who’d propose merging with The Eagles—and then some.”
Woo Dan Woo—surely he’d have made Ji Hye Soo’s innocence a condition of the merger, just as he’d done with her.
All along, Woo Seon Ho had been blaming her for the corruption scandal at Haesong Bio.
Suddenly, Soo Jung wondered if Woo Seon Ho might be trying to pin Ji Hye Soo’s crimes on her to swallow up The Eagles.
Wanting to understand Dan Woo’s true intentions, Soo Jung recalled her own words: “I’ll visit you soon.”
★★★
As spring settled deeply into every corner of the city, an exhibition titled [Illustrator Eun Yul’s Solo Exhibition] opened at the attic library.
Looking at the drawing of a child with flower-stained fingernails, Soo Jung was reminded of her childhood. After passing through dreamy illustrations, her eyes landed on a spring-themed quote.
“Spring touches my toes. The moment I met you, flowers bloomed in my dark eyes, and I became spring. —Dash, Writer NJ, ‘The Moment I Met Spring —Dash’”
“Anyone who can turn me into spring would be worth loving.”

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect.

After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
