Unexpected. She thought they might go to a hotel or a villa, but his house? Curious, So Yeon asked again.
“Am I really going to your house?”
“Let’s go.”
“Oh, wait…!”
While protesting, So Yeon’s legs obediently followed Seo Jun’s lead.
Whoosh, thunk!
A small box was carelessly thrown into the trash can.
Wan Hu, returning to his office, tossed the now-useless ring into the trash and slumped into his chair.
Were they that close? I had no idea…
A hollow laugh spread across his hardened face.
No, it wasn’t that he didn’t know. He prided himself on knowing Seo Jun well and, knowing how secretive Seo Jun was, never allowed himself to think in that direction.
Thinking back, wasn’t it Seo Jun who, after his discharge, frequented the company more than ever? All because of Eom So Yeon.

“Ha! I was such a fool…”
Having narrowly escaped Oh Min Jung, Wan Hu entered the hallway leading to the bathroom.
He intended to finish his unfinished conversation with So Yeon.
However, what he encountered was a slightly swaying curtain, indicating someone had just left, and whispered voices coming from that direction.
Though he could have gone out and seen with his own eyes, Wan Hu, for some reason, couldn’t bring himself to do it and turned off the hallway lights. The moonlight then clearly cast the silhouettes of two people on the curtain.
Even from their shadows, he could easily tell who they were. Tae Seo Jun and Eom So Yeon, passionately embracing and kissing each other.
Wan Hu stayed in his office until the early hours of the morning.
He felt like doing something crazy to escape the shock those two had given him. But can a person’s heart be controlled so easily?
Wan Hu picked up the ring box from the trash can.
As he put it in his desk drawer, his lips curled up slightly.
That smile meant it wasn’t over until it was really over.
Bored of it, but missing it enough to come back?
Me, chasing after you?
No, Eom So Yeon shouldn’t have said that to me.
I let her go because I didn’t know how to hold on, but I was always the one being left.
I lost her once unknowingly while asleep, and another time because she wanted it. But now, it’s my turn to decide, and that’s only fair.
Seo Jun chuckled lightly as he pondered over everything So Yeon had said.
“…….”
He once mistook real love as unreliable because he had learned love wrongly. But it turned out to be the biggest mistake of his life.
During his time afflicted with intense longing, Seo Jun realized.
He should never have let her go, even if it meant being slapped. Being dead inside was worse than following Eom So Yeon around like a shadow.
Hence, Seo Jun didn’t let go of So Yeon’s hand from Samseong-dong to Nonhyeon-dong.
Finally, Seo Jun’s car entered his secretive space.
The spacious, large parking lot resembled an exhibition hall, filled with luxury cars, not just one but several. Yet, compared to the entire house, this parking lot and its spectacle were nothing.
“Wow!”
So Yeon couldn’t help but exclaim continuously as she looked around from the elevator to the living room. With Seo Jun’s permission, she explored every nook and cranny from the first to the third floor.
“Do you really live alone?”
Returning to Seo Jun in the living room, So Yeon asked with flushed cheeks and a playful look.
“This place is so big. Aren’t your parents or siblings going to pop out from somewhere?”
Seo Jun shrugged his shoulders as if to say ‘maybe’ and smiled slyly.
“Haven’t bumped into them yet?”
“!”
Even though she knew he was joking, So Yeon instinctively flinched and craned her neck like a meerkat, scanning the empty room.
“Why, want to greet them properly?”
“Ah, don’t be ridiculous.”
Relaxing at his teasing smile, So Yeon discreetly wiped her damp palms on her skirt.
The provided Korean text has 21 lines. I will now translate it into English, maintaining the exact same number of lines.
“What’s there to be scared of? Even if we bump into someone, Eom So Yeon only needs to look at me. Or hide behind me.”
The more he thought about it, the more amusing it seemed.
Introducing this woman as my girlfriend, I wonder what my parents would say. They must have some idea, but I’m curious about their reaction.
This thought curved Seo Jun’s lips smoothly.
And then, a little while later.
It was a sweltering summer night, and Seo Jun had been sweating ever since he decided to visit So Yeon at the office. So, he quickly showered and came out of his room in comfortable clothes.
So Yeon, who had been admiring the various trophies and precious ornaments in the living room, caught her breath at the sight of Seo Jun with wet hair. His appearance was disarmingly casual.
An unbuttoned shirt. The solid and firm chest visible through it. Her gaze went up higher, stopping at his Adam’s apple.
How enticing it was, moving up and down. Despite having seen it before, So Yeon had to swallow dryly and turn her gaze away.
“It seems like Eom So Yeon should take a shower too.”
“Me? Why?”
Bringing her to his house and then suddenly telling her to shower?
When So Yeon widened her eyes in surprise, Seo Jun chuckled and pointed at the smudged mascara and eyeliner around her eyes.
“You look like a raccoon asking to be friends.”
“Oh my goodness…”
Startled, So Yeon hurried to the mirror on the wall to check her face. Her makeup had smudged when she cried earlier. Not exactly a raccoon, but the area around her eyes was quite smudged.
“See? Better wash up.”
“…….”
Too embarrassed to speak, So Yeon just nodded.
The room he came out of was the largest visible from the living room. So Yeon, straightening her spine, glanced at the other doors and asked,
“Which way should I go…?”
Seo Jun gestured with his chin towards his master bedroom.
“That room would be comfortable. It’s very hot today, take a shower. Make yourself at home. If your clothes feel uncomfortable, you can pick something to wear from the dressing room attached to the bathroom.”
“In your room?”
“Is there any place in my house that isn’t mine?”
Offering his room seemed the most appropriate, given her awkwardness. Gently pushing her back, Seo Jun watched as So Yeon hesitantly crossed the threshold.
“Then, I’ll excuse myself.”
“Take your time.”
So Yeon closed the door and turned around.
But for some reason, her face quickly reddened.
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.
