“Hic…”
So Yeon had sworn not to cry again, but the sight of Tae Seo Jun suddenly appearing made her emotions collapse uncontrollably. Unsure of what the future held, she was overjoyed to meet him again, even if it meant dying.
However, the Tae Seo Jun she knew was an unattainable, towering figure. That’s why she couldn’t tell him the truth and chose to disappear like the ephemeral Little Mermaid.
He was so out of reach that she had left him, and even now, she dared not hope. But now, So Yeon couldn’t see what the right choice was.
“I don’t know.”
“Eom So Yeon, you really…!”
How do I even begin to scold this woman…
“No need to explain. But what will you do about your heart being exposed to me?”
“Do I have to be responsible for that too? What do you expect from me?”
“You don’t know, want me to teach you?”
“Yes, I don’t understand, so teach me.”
“Fine! I’ll teach you everything until you understand.”
“……!”
Seo Jun kissed her as a warning.
He had to make So Yeon, pretending not to know, realize her mistake.
So Yeon couldn’t push away his sudden, overwhelming kisses and simply closed her eyes. She had no other way out but Tae Seo Jun – her child’s father, her first love, the one she’d always love.
His passionate breath, drawn in and surging back, his fiery kisses awakened her.
To the fact that this man had also struggled, unable to forget her.
That she couldn’t live without him.
Despite foolishly pushing away this precious man, if she lost him again, she would be even more foolish. She had to realize that.
“But my words are all wrong.”
Yet, if her words were true, wouldn’t she be utterly despicable? Seo Jun’s eyebrows furrowed as he methodically countered.
“Do you enjoy being wrong? Would I have rushed here in the middle of the night if Eom So Yeon was easy? Therefore, I’m the easy one.”
“That makes even less sense. What does Tae Seo Jun lack?”
“You really don’t know me.”
“Yes, I really don’t! I don’t understand you at all!”
As So Yeon spoke with exasperation, Seo Jun’s heart raced. Where did it all go wrong? What should he unravel first? He was bewildered, his elegance lost, his expression no longer composed.
“Have you tried to understand? Did you make an effort? No, you just pushed me away!”
“…….”
So Yeon bit her lip, silent.
Her stubbornness was evident, making Seo Jun chuckle involuntarily.
“I’m glad I came today. Fine. Say everything you wanted to say to me now. Even curse at me. Lash out with everything that upset and hurt you because of me, even slap my face.”
“You want me to… continue? To hit you?”
“Yes. But I won’t let you go again.”
“Hic! Let go of me!”
His movements were quick, and as So Yeon was lifted, her feet dangling in the air, she let out a shallow scream.
“No.”

“What if someone sees us? Put me down, please!”
As So Yeon struggled, Seo Jun, pretending to be reluctant, put her down and leaned against the wall with one arm, while tightly holding her waist with the other, preventing her from escaping.
“If I ask you to stay with me today, you’ll refuse, right?”
“Of course.”
“Is that decision in line with your heart?”
“My heart, really?”
“You can’t say it is.”
“That’s… because it’s too sudden.”
“What if it wasn’t sudden?”
“What then?”
“Choose the place.”
“What place?”
“Where we’ll be together.”
“Why does the conversation go that way? I never said I’d stay with you.”
“Then say it. Say you’ll stay.”
“I can’t.”
So Yeon kept resisting, and Seo Jun, who cunningly grasped every word, wouldn’t budge.
“Can’t say it because you don’t want to?”
“What…”
“Since you can’t answer right away, it seems you don’t dislike it. I’m okay with Dogok-dong. Shall we go there?”
“My house?”
“Yes.”
“We can’t! My mom is there, and Hyunwoo and the nanny, how can we just go in together…!”
Ah! What am I saying?
Her inadvertent confession, like spilled water, couldn’t be taken back.
Her surprised expression, flushed cheeks, and dimples were irresistibly cute. As So Yeon bit her lip, Seo Jun’s handsome face under the moonlight wore a big smile.
“What about my house?”
Seo Jun said casually.
His own space, where he hadn’t allowed any woman except his mother.
“Your house?”
“You said you don’t know me. I told you I’d teach you everything.”
“……”
Her brown eyes gazed intently at Seo Jun.
So Yeon had tried everything to forget him for three months. But the more she tried, the more she longed for him, her heart aching unbearably. And now, she had unexpectedly encountered Seo Jun, who she had yearned for.
Overwhelmed by his persistent wooing and enticement, So Yeon couldn’t help but give in and laugh weakly. She had surrendered to his audacious advances.
There was no choice now but to leave everything to fate.
“Are we really going to your house?”
“Yes. Eom So Yeon will come to my house.”
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
