While others remained oblivious, Inhyuk was clearly flustered by the current situation.
He had arrived at the traditional Korean restaurant for a lunch appointment. Just as he was about to enter the room where the meeting was arranged, he spotted a familiar face at the end of the hallway.
“Hello, sir. It looks like you’ve come for a meal.”
It wasn’t Yeonju who captured his attention; it was the woman standing behind her.
The woman he had first met in Italy, spent a night within Paris.
She passionately seduced whenever she pleased, disappearing without a word the next morning.
Certainly, it was that woman.
He had considered her someone easily forgettable, but since then, thoughts of her had persistently lingered in his mind.
He didn’t even know her name or where to find her.
Why she was here,
And why she was with Yeonju…
In a brief moment of contemplation, no answers came. The woman seemed equally perplexed.
Upon seeing her, Yeonju’s face appeared just as troubled.
The woman, looking at me, had an expression so frozen it seemed to turn pale. I couldn’t fathom why she looked so stiff.
“Unni, what’s wrong?”
Her condition seemed strange even to Yeonju. In response to Yeonju’s question, the woman muttered quietly.
“…It’s him.”
“What?”
“That man is him.”
Her incomprehensible words made even Yeonju’s face turn pale.

That evening.
Mina arrived at a restaurant located on the high floors of the hotel.
Following the guidance of the staff, she entered the reserved room. Mina sat at the table and looked out the window. The sparkling scenery of the city spread before her eyes.
Mina glanced at her wristwatch. It was almost time for the appointed meeting.
Earlier that day, Mina had unexpectedly encountered Inhyuk at the traditional Korean restaurant. It was already surprising to coincidentally meet him on this vast land, and to her astonishment, it was Yeonju’s workplace.
As Mina, still bewildered, couldn’t utter a word, Inhyuk approached first.
“I have an appointment now. Are you free later in the evening?”
Startled by Inhyuk’s question, Mina nodded with a flustered expression.
“Then, at 8 PM. Let’s meet at the hotel restaurant.”
After delivering those words, Inhyuk turned and entered the room.
Mina couldn’t tell if meeting him was a fortunate or unfortunate event. Nonetheless, since he was the father of her child, she should at least know his name.
She had wanted to have a conversation someday, and it seemed fate had decided it was time. Determined, Mina awaited Inhyuk.
When the appointed time arrived, a brief knock and the sound of the door opening were followed by Inhyuk’s entrance.
Dressed in a navy suit with jet-black hair neatly combed, Inhyuk sat down. The fluttering feeling she had upon first seeing him began to rise from the depths of her chest.
As Inhyuk took his seat, he said, “Have you been waiting long?”
“No. I arrived about ten minutes ago.”
“I see. Have you had dinner?”
“Yes, I have.”
“Then, let’s have a drink and talk.”
As Inhyuk unfolded the menu listing various wines, Mina shook her head.
“No, I won’t be drinking.”
“Don’t you like alcohol? Have you quit drinking now?”
“I plan to quit for a while.”
“Well, that’s good. If you get drunk and can’t see anything, it’s probably best to quit.”
It was a pointed remark. The day Mina spent with Inhyuk was truly not in her right mind. Thinking about the scene she had made with Inhyuk back then made her feel embarrassed.
Inhyuk asked Mina, “Why did you disappear without a word that day?”
“I had to go to Rome for work.”
“But you could have at least said goodbye.”
“We didn’t need to exchange polite greetings and part ways like that.”
At Mina’s confident words, Inhyuk was momentarily silent, then nodded slowly.
“That’s not entirely wrong.”
A wry smile appeared on Inhyuk’s face as he spoke.
“So, why did you come to see me today?”
“…”
“Just pretend you don’t know until the end.”
Mina looked at his face. Through Yeonju, she had learned his name, where he lived, and what he did.
However, that was all. She still didn’t know what kind of person he was. The information she had gathered could easily be found by others through a search on online portals.
Inhyuk, too, didn’t know what kind of woman she was. The only thing he knew for sure was that she had a severe drinking problem.
Yet, the child of such a man was now in her belly. Perhaps there was no need to announce this fact. He probably had no expectations or wishes. It would likely be the same for him.
However, now that he was the father of the child, it seemed she should at least know. It was much better than finding out later and making things more complicated.
Having composed herself, Mina looked straight into his eyes.
“There’s something I want to tell you.”
Inhyuk looked at Mina with a gaze prompting her to speak.
After taking a deep breath, Mina faced him again and said, “I’m pregnant. You’re the father.”
A deep silence enveloped them.
“…”
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.
