“Just try not to think about anything and get some rest for now.”
As soon as they arrived home, Ji Hoon swept away the neat blanket and laid Ha Joon on the bed.
As he was about to pull up the messy blanket to cover him, Ha Joon’s face, pale without a hint of color, came into view.
He never could have imagined it would be revealed like this.
Of all the places, why did it have to be Hyun Sung Group?
Of all the days, why did it have to be today?
Meaningless resentments passed by,
Should have asked which company he was applying to.
Should have mentioned something about Ha Joon in advance.
Meaningless regrets passed by.
Ji Hoon stared intently at Ha Joon, who had his eyes closed without any expression, then turned off the light and left the room.
Ji Hoon, who came out to the living room, quickly took out his cell phone and dialed Su Ah’s number.
[The phone is turned off…….] [The phone is turned off…….] He was making the call for the nth time, but Su Ah’s cell phone was still turned off.Da Eun!
Upon the sudden thought, he dialed Da Eun’s cell phone number he had saved just in case.
Rrrrr.
[Manager?] After a few rings, Da Eun’s voice came through, and Ji Hoon immediately asked about Su Ah without even asking how she was.“Da Eun! Did Su Ah come home by any chance?”
[Su Ah? She hasn’t come home yet. Is something wrong?]
Da Eun asked at the unusual tone of Ji Hoon’s voice.
“Can I see you for a moment right now?”
[Me? Why?]
“Something happened to Su Ah. I need your help.”
I need your help…….
Da Eun worried if something serious had happened to Su Ah.
[Okay. Where should I go?] “I’m on my way there now. Can you come to the convenience store?”
In the convenience store office.
“What happened to Su Ah?”
As soon as Da Eun sat on the office sofa, she hastily asked.
“A small problem arose.”
“A problem? What kind of problem?”
Da Eun widened her eyes and inquired.
“From now on, your role, Da Eun, is important.”
“My role?”
“This is something only you can do. You must help.”
Urgency was evident in Ji Hoon’s expression.
“First, tell me what happened. Whether I can help or not is a separate issue.”
“That’s the thing…”
Ji Hoon began to talk about what happened at the award ceremony today.
“What? Ha Joon is the vice president of Hyun Sung Group?”
Da Eun’s mouth gaped as if her jaw had dropped.
“I didn’t mean to deceive her. I think there was a misunderstanding. I tried to clarify, but her phone is off…”
As she listened to the uncommunicated excuses, Da Eun’s expression grew heavy.
She had been so happy finally to be in a normal relationship. Why did it have to be…
“…It’s going to be tough.”
“Tough? What do you mean?”
“Su Ah might not be able to accept Ha Joon.”
Ji Hoon widened his eyes as if he couldn’t understand Da Eun’s words, waiting for her to continue.
“Su Ah has a trauma related to chaebols. Her exboyfriend was the son of a corporate president.”
“Trauma?”
“Yes. Because of that boyfriend, she was betrayed by a friend, and his mother even offered her a money envelope. In any case, since then, people from chaebol families are a trauma itself to Su Ah.”
Ji Hoon’s expression darkened as he listened to all of Da Eun’s words.
He thought it would be enough to clear the misunderstanding that he had intentionally deceived her, but the mere existence of Ha Joon was the problem.
“Could you persuade Su Ah?”
“….”
“I don’t know much about Su Ah’s past, so it’s hard to say anything, but Ha Joon is different from other chaebol people. I can guarantee that.”
“….”
“I won’t ask for anything else. Just give Ha Joon a chance to explain.”
After a long while, Da Eun’s lips parted.
“I’ll try to talk to her, but don’t get your hopes up.”
“Okay. I appreciate it. Thanks for coming.”
“Yes. I should go now.”
With that, Da Eun shouldered the heavy responsibility and left the convenience store, heading towards Su Ah’s house.
“Hey! Jung Da Eun! Where have you been? Why didn’t you answer your phone? I already drank so much alone.”
As soon as she entered the house, Su Ah, who seemed already drunk, pointed to the empty beer cans scattered on the table.
Where should she start?
With a hardened expression, Da Eun sat next to Su Ah.
“Here. You drink too.”
Su Ah handed over a can of beer, and Da Eun, who was fiddling with the mouth of the beer can, spoke with difficulty.
“…You’re doing this because of Ha Joon, right?”
“What? What, what are you talking about?”
“You found out today that Ha Joon is the vice president of Hyun Sung Group.”
“How did you know about that?”
Su Ah asked with a surprised expression.
“How I knew isn’t important. The fact that I know is. So?”
Da Eun asked back.
“What do you mean, ‘so’?”
“So, what are you going to do now?”
“What am I going to do? Break up, of course. No! There’s nothing to break up over. We haven’t even started yet.”
Su Ah’s head dropped heavily.
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
