Taeha leaned this way as if attracted by a magnet.
Their lips gradually drew closer.
10 centimeters, 5 centimeters…
Just as Sihyun, with a trembling heart, tried to close their eyes, a clinking sound was heard.
Undoing Sihyun’s seatbelt, Taeha corrected their posture and said, “See you later at the company.”
[Star Icon]After Sihyun got out of the car, Taeha placed their hands on their chest and repeated deep breaths. Their heart was pounding so much that it felt like it could burst at any moment.
Sihyun tying my necktie every morning and even giving me a kiss on the cheek…
It was like a dream for him. No, it was more than a dream. Even after a long time of unrequited love, he had never dared to imagine such things.
Feeling both extremely happy and tormented, he almost felt like he would go crazy.
[Chabi.]Why did she do such cute things?
Why did she look at me with such lovely eyes?
He almost lost his reason and was about to steal a kiss right then and there.
Thinking about how the girl who used to pull away quickly after a kiss on the back of the hand would have reacted if he had kissed her like that, it was dizzying just to imagine.
Every moment with her felt like a crisis for him.
Between happiness and agony, the man breathed deeply through trembling lips to calm his racing heart.
[Star Icon]“Is the project progressing well? With the head of the department.”
At Miju’s question, Sihyun almost spit out his coffee. Hurriedly looking around and confirming that no one was there, Sihyun turned his gaze to Miju.
“Could you please be careful with your words? What if someone overhears?”
“Is it not the same as before? Last time, you didn’t know what to do when it happened after we kissed.”
Sihyun hesitated for a moment. Should he say this or not?
But saying it once was difficult, and saying it twice was easy. In the end, Sihyun confessed the truth.
“We held hands, watched a movie, and went on a date.”
“And?”
“That’s it.”
“That’s it? Did you both just go home and sleep after the date ended?”
As Sihyun nodded, Miju made a disapproving face.
“What’s wrong with you? Instead of moving forward, why are you going backward?”
Frustrated, Miju even gave him a rebuke.
“Sihyun made a mistake. You should have taken the lead like an older sister.”
“Did I?”
Sihyun blushed and tried to refute.
Want some coffee? No, I’ll pass. I tied his necktie. I even kissed him on the cheek. I signaled to him, but he didn’t react. What else should I do?
“Have I not done enough for him to make an effort?”
“Well, it seems like Sihyun did what he could.”
Miju smirked.
“At twenty-six, your blood should be boiling. Why is that not the case?”
“Is that so? Isn’t that strange?”
Already uneasy feelings began to tilt in a negative direction due to Miju’s reaction.
“Could it be that I don’t look like a woman to him? Perhaps he sees me as more of a motherly figure, like an older sister or something.”
With difficulty, Sihyun revealed his inner thoughts.
“I’ve known him since he was very young. So, perhaps he doesn’t think of me as someone to like romantically. Maybe he sees me more like a mother or older sister. Such thoughts have crossed my mind.”
“Well, that could be true.”
Saying it out loud for the first time, Sihyun’s heart sank even further due to Miju’s serious expression.
“What should I do then?”
Suddenly, a sense of anxiety rushed in.
Now, if Taeha were to say, “I’m sorry, I realized I didn’t like you as a woman,” what would happen?
I’ve already fallen so deeply for you. My mind is filled with thoughts of you.
While struggling with uncertainty, Miju spoke.
“Just close your eyes and go for it.”
“What?”
“Once you do it, you won’t seem like a mother or older sister, right?”
The method was extreme, but upon hearing it, it seemed to make sense. However, how…
“There’s a way if there’s a will. Living next door, there will be plenty of opportunities, right?”
Encouragingly, Miju patted Sihyun’s shoulder.
“Give it a try.”
“Thanks for the advice, Ms. Miju.”
After Sihyun left the break room with a thoughtful expression, Miju belatedly burst into laughter.
“Oh, really, it’s so cute!”
Being cute at the age of thirty-three. It seemed like Yuntaeha, the head of the design team, knew the reason why he was struggling to live.
[Possibly, he doesn’t see me as a woman.]As Sihyun spoke with a deeply serious expression, Miju almost spit out the coffee she was drinking.
From a third person’s perspective, it sounded absurd.
Yuntaeha, the head of the design team, made various excuses all day long and couldn’t stay away from the WonApp team office. Pretending to ask others about work, he kept glancing in Sihyun’s direction.
Eventually, realizing it might not work, he awkwardly approached Sihyun and greeted him.
[Assistant Manager Kang Sihyun, great job.] [Oh, Mr. Head. Hello.]Sihyun, as usual, replied without looking at him or showing any acknowledgment.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
