“For what reason? Because you’re hungover? You haven’t been with the company for long, are you going to take a sick day for a hangover?”
“That’s right, isn’t it? I shouldn’t, should I?”
Looking at her feet, which didn’t move despite her words, it seemed there was a difference between knowing something and acting on it.
“Stop talking nonsense and go to work. Don’t make Ha Joon late too.”
“Isn’t there a back door or something in our apartment building?”
She wanted to escape, even if she had to create one herself.
If only she could go back to yesterday.
If only she could go back to the time before the company dinner, she felt she could do anything.
“Go already.”
A short word from Da Eun pushed Su Ah out.
If it weren’t for that flatfish, things wouldn’t have gotten this tangled.
You, flatfish, just wait. When I get off work today, I’ll come back and chew you up.
With a determined look in her eyes, Su Ah glared at the flatfish as she left the entrance.
Had the entrance to the apartment building always been this close?
Normally, the elevator would stop at every floor, making her nervous, but why did it come down all at once today?
The elevator reached the first floor in no time.
“Su Ah.”
As expected.
As soon as Su Ah appeared at the entrance of the apartment building, she heard Ha Joon’s voice as if he had been waiting.
Unable to meet his gaze, Su Ah unknowingly hurriedly changed her direction and sped up her steps.
“Su Ah!”
Ha Joon’s voice came again.
I can’t hear. I can’t hear. I can’t hear anything.
Su Ah hurried her steps as much as she could, but she couldn’t go far before Ha Joon, with his long legs, closed the distance in a few strides and blocked her way.
“Didn’t you hear me calling?”
His voice, unnaturally calm contrary to her feelings, wrapped around her ears.
“Oh. Ha, Ha Joon. When did you arrive? I must not have seen you.”
Unknowingly, the corners of her mouth trembled, and her plan to speak calmly failed.
“Did you avoid me on purpose just now?”
“No? Why would I do that? I have no reason to.”
Su Ah, as if making a lastditch effort, raised her voice with her chin up.
“If you want a reason, after drinking last night you did something to me…… Ah!”
Su Ah quickly reached out and covered Ha Joon’s mouth.
“Enough. You’re right. Everything you said is correct, so let’s stop talking about it.”
Ha Joon chuckled at the sight of a clearly flustered Su Ah.
“Why would you run away over something like that?”
“I’m embarrassed, that’s why.”
“You shouldn’t be embarrassed about something that isn’t the first time it’s happened. Get in the car.”
Ha Joon led Su Ah towards the car he had parked.
‘If I drink again, then I’m Jung Da Eun’s daughter. Daughter!’
Su Ah climbed into the passenger seat with a sullen expression.
A heavy silence hung in the car long after they had set off.
The first to break the silence was Ha Joon.
“Should we not go to work today and head to the beach instead?”
“The beach? Why the sudden beach trip?”
“We need to find the flatfish’s family, don’t we?”
Please shut your mouth.
Either Ha Joon didn’t see Su Ah’s face turn bright red, or he just continued to speak calmly.
“We should find its family as soon as possible, I’m worried.”
His face was full of unmistakable mischief.
“Ah. Really. Are you going to keep teasing me?”
Su Ah pouted her lips and rolled her eyes.
“Pfft. Alright, I won’t do it anymore, really.”
Ha Joon, fearing Su Ah might really get angry if he continued, decided to swallow the words he hadn’t yet spoken.
“Did you get home alright with Ha Joon yesterday?”
Ji Hoon approached Su Ah as she was crossing the company lobby.
“Yes, I did.”
Her voice trailed off as the image of the flatfish suddenly flashed in her mind.
“Wasn’t Ha Joon not supposed to attend the company dinner yesterday? Why did he suddenly show up?”
If Ha Joon hadn’t shown up at the company dinner, she wouldn’t have had to suffer such an embarrassment. That’s why she asked.
“Perhaps he had no choice but to come?”
Ji Hoon, with wide eyes, extended his phone towards Su Ah, who had asked him why.
Su Ah confirmed the three pictures that had brought Ha Joon to the company dinner.
“Oh my! When did you take these?”
“I took them at the company dinner yesterday. The angles are perfect, right? After seeing these pictures, how could Min Ha Joon not come?”
“But what if Ha Joon misunderstands?”
“Oh my? You say that, but why is the corner of your mouth turning up?”
“Ah! Did it show?”
“Yes. A lot.”
While worried about being misunderstood, she was happy thinking he might be jealous.
Struggling to suppress her upturned lips, Su Ah looked more closely at the pictures.
“But you really took the pictures very cleverly.”
“Right? At least this much is needed to call Min Ha Joon to a company dinner.”
“I wonder what Ha Joon’s expression was when he first saw these pictures.”
“I wonder that too.”
Imagining what his reaction might have been, Su Ah and Ji Hoon burst into laughter.
“What’s so funny that has you two laughing since morning?”
The design team’s Kim Yuna came over to them.
“Ah? Team leader. Hello.”
While Su Ah was greeting her, Ji Hoon put his phone in his pocket.
“Why are you putting it in your pocket? Let me have a look too.”
Yuna indicated Ji Hoon’s pocket with a flicker of her eyes.
“It’s nothing.”
“Let’s share the fun.”
“This is related to our team’s work, and is none of Team Leader Kim Yuna’s concern.”
Contrary to Ji Hoon’s usual demeanor, his tone was firm and decisive.
Were they originally not on good terms? Or was it because he was worried about our relationship with Ha Joon being exposed?
Su Ah studied Ji Hoon’s expression.
“Is there something so secretive in company business?”
Although anyone else would have given up and turned away by now, Ji Hoon’s cold tone didn’t seem to bother Yuna.
“Yes. It is a matter that is so secretive.”
Although it was not visible to the eye, a cold wind could be felt from the gaze of the two people facing each other.
‘What to do with this atmosphere?’
Stuck between the two team leaders, Su Ah could only move her eyes anxiously.
“Team leader. I’ll go ahead first, so please take your time and come up after discussing.”
Su Ah took a step back and turned her body.
“Yes. You can go ahead.”
“No. Let’s go up together.”
Yuna and Ji Hoon’s conflicting words came out simultaneously.
“Since it’s almost work time, I’ll go up first.”
Ignoring Yuna, Ji Hoon matched his steps with Su Ah.
“Team leader. It seems like Team Leader Kim Yuna is upset?”
Looking back sneakily at Yuna’s expression, Su Ah spoke in a worried tone.
“It’s okay. Don’t worry about it.”
Without even a single look back, Ji Hoon quickened his pace.

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.
