As Yeo Woon came out after washing up, she suddenly noticed Seol Ji Oh sitting on the sofa. Even in her shabby house, Seol Ji Oh’s beauty shone.
Yeo Woon approached Seol Ji Oh, feeling that the living room seemed more spacious today.
The tshirt fit him well enough, but the pants were evidently too short. Seol Ji Oh’s ankles were clearly visible with his pant legs riding up. Yeo Woon chuckled and, while drying her wet hair with a towel, asked him,
“Do you want to wash up too?”
At Yeo Woon’s words, Seol Ji Oh looked at her silently for a moment before standing up.
“I’ll go wash up.”
Yeo Woon thought Seol Ji Oh sounded tired. Looking at the clock, she realized it was already past two in the morning.
It was indeed a time to be tired. Washing up would only make him more drowsy.
But where should I put him to sleep?
Yeo Woon looked around the living room, wondering where to accommodate the tall Seol Ji Oh.

Should I move the sofa a bit?
While estimating the space with her eyes, Yeo Woon turned her head at the sound of Seol Ji Oh calling her from the bathroom.
“Why?”
“Where is the toothbrush?”
Toothbrush?
After thinking for a moment, Yeo Woon approached the bathroom door and said,
“It should be in the cupboard somewhere. Don’t you see it?”
She heard Seol Ji Oh rummaging around.
“It’s not here. I can’t find it.”
Not there?

Yeo Woon absentmindedly opened the bathroom door. And then she froze.
“…!”
Seol Ji Oh, who had just entered less than a minute ago, was undressing.
Startled, Yeo Woon hastily shut the door again.
As she put her hand over her startled heart, the image of Seol Ji Oh’s sculptured body lingered in her mind like an afterimage.
No, get a grip!
Yeo Woon shook her head vigorously.
As she was trying to dispel the thoughts that were crowding in her mind, the bathroom door suddenly opened.
“Why aren’t you helping me find it?”
Seol Ji Oh asked casually, still barechested.

Yeo Woon, whose thought process had stalled, blinked at Seol Ji Oh. She tried to keep her eyes on his face, but she couldn’t stop them from drifting down.
His broad shoulders and firm pectoral muscles. The clearly defined abs. Unconsciously taking note of even the shadows between his muscles, Yeo Woon soon felt her face heat up and raised her eyes.
Seol Ji Oh was looking down at Yeo Woon with a chuckle.
“Is this your first time seeing my body?”
Yeo Woon looked at him wideeyed, as if to ask what he meant by that.
Of course, it’s my first time! When would I have seen your body?
Then Seol Ji Oh spoke casually,
“If you search ‘Seol Ji Oh,’ you’ll see plenty of pictures of me naked.”
Of course, she had seen those. Seol Ji Oh was a model for a worldrenowned underwear brand.
But seeing it in a picture and seeing it in person was worlds apart.

When seen in a photo, it wasn’t this… this…
Yeo Woon closed her eyes. More inappropriate thoughts were starting to form.
“Yeo Woon.”
Seol Ji Oh’s soft voice resonated in her ears. Yeo Woon opened her eyes. She saw Seol Ji Oh’s dark eyes gently looking at her.
Thump, thump. Her heart pounded fiercely. Unconsciously, Yeo Woon swallowed hard.
Immediately after, Seol Ji Oh asked in a deep, resonant voice,
“Can you find the toothbrush?”
Ah… the toothbrush.
Right, the toothbrush.
Yeo Woon stepped into the bathroom and opened the cupboard. To her disappointment, the toothbrush was plainly visible on the bottom shelf.

Perhaps Seol Ji Oh, who was tall, hadn’t seen the very bottom?
When she turned around, Seol Ji Oh was chuckling as if something was very amusing, his shoulders shaking with laughter.
Yeo Woon glared at Seol Ji Oh once with narrowed eyes, handed him the toothbrush, and then left for the living room.
Ah, what a long day.
She sprawled out on the sofa as if she had collapsed.
There was a steamy atmosphere escaping from the open bathroom door, and a damp Seol Ji Oh emerged.
Seol Ji Oh, who was wiping his hair with a towel, suddenly stopped what he was doing. He had spotted Yeo Woon, who was asleep.
He approached Yeo Woon silently. It seemed she was so exhausted that she had fallen asleep just sitting there.
Seeing Yeo Woon sleeping with her mouth open made the corners of his mouth lift.
Seol Ji Oh, looking down at Yeo Woon, reached out subconsciously when he saw a strand of hair on her forehead.

But just before his hand touched her forehead, he stopped.
His fingertips, having lost their destination, hovered for a moment before he withdrew his hand. However, his gaze remained on Yeo Woon’s face.
The silent dawn. Only the ticking of the clock filled the space.
The next day, what woke Yeo Woon was the sound of a phone call. With a sleepy face, she fumbled around and found her cell phone and checked the caller.
It was Kang Geon Woo.
“…Hello.”
[Yeo Woon, it’s Kang Geon Woo. Were you sleeping?]
“Oh, I just woke up. What can I do for you?”
Yeo Woon sat up in bed. She had drunk quite a bit last night and was feeling thirsty.
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
