At the sound of knocking on the car window, Dosun, who could barely move his arms, fumbled to unlock the car’s mechanism. Probably Um Soyeon, he thought.
The flashing eyelids, unexpectedly, rose sharply due to an unexpected voice.
“Why are you doing this! If you’re in pain, you should go to the hospital no matter what!”
“Uh!”
An extremely irritating voice. Opening the car door and lifting Dosun with both arms, the one who did so was none other than Guwonhoo.
“Huh? Why is the president here…?”
“It’s noisy. Let’s go in my car for now.”
“Ouch, ouch! Since you’ve come to help, be gentle!”
Ignoring the small talk, Gwonhoo, after seating Dosun in the passenger seat, walked briskly around the car and climbed into the driver’s seat.
“Judging by the way you’re shouting, you seem to be still alive.”
“Because I’m in pain!”
In fact, Dosun hadn’t been in good health since before leaving for Yangpyeong. And upon arriving at the filming location, he experienced severe chills and a rise in temperature. It was just symptoms of a cold.
But when Dosun saw Wonhoo’s face, he wanted to feel really sick. Whether this feeling is love or not, he didn’t know, but for the first time in his life, he wanted to act recklessly.
“Is it not an act?”
“No, it’s not! I’m hurting everywhere! It’s not that I’m faking it, and it’s not exaggeration!”
“I understand. Since it’s just nonsense, let’s be quiet now. What’s the use of complaining until you get inflammation in your tonsils?”
“Uh, am I the one worrying about you right now? Is that why you’ve come rushing all the way here?”
Upon receiving Soyeon’s message, Wonhoo hastily got into the car and drove. By the time he regained his senses, they were already in Yangpyeong.
It wasn’t because he liked it. It felt like the reason Yeodosoon was in pain was somehow his fault. No, there was no doubt that it was because of the relentless pressure he had put on her for two days straight. So, he explained to himself as if brainwashing, saying that he had come all the way here for this reason.
“Soyeon sent a message that Yeodosoon is not feeling well. How can I, as the company representative, pretend not to know?”
Answering in a similar manner, Wonhoo, after fastening the seatbelt for Dosun, immediately started driving toward the nearby city.
“Where are we going now?”
“Let’s go to the emergency room and get an injection or something.”
“By any chance, do you like it?”
“!”
“Do you love me?”
“!”
To the sudden question, Wonhoo kept his mouth shut and increased the speed of the car.
“No, I don’t! Don’t tell me what to do just because I’m in pain!”
Dosun turned his gaze away from Wonhoo, thinking, ‘Well, that’s true,’ and closed his eyes tightly.
Why talk about love when going to the hospital? It was clear that he was in so much pain that even his mind was swaying.
A while later, as Wonhoo arrived in front of the emergency room, he embraced Dosun with both arms.
“I’m not so sick that I can’t walk.”
“If we’re going to hug, let’s just go like this.”
As he embraced him, Dosun asked again when they reached the entrance of the hospital.
“Why are you treating me so well? Is it possible without liking me?”
“Let’s stop this before you throw up.”
Stopping abruptly, Wonhoo stared down at Dosun.
His parched lips twisted, and the eyes heated by fever stared at him piercingly. After moving his gaze back to his lips, Wonhoo suddenly put Dosun down on the ground.
“Ouch!”
Reacting to the recoil, Dosun staggered, but as soon as he regained his balance, he asked inquiringly.
“Is it not, or is it? Even if you hate me, is it necessary to slap me like this? How insensitive.”
“That’s not it…”
Ah, I must be crazy! Why do I want to kiss a sick woman all of a sudden?
“Tsk, say something if you hate me that much. Huh! I’ve had enough!”
“…”
Does that mouth keep moving even when it hurts more? Anyway, she tolerated it because she was in pain.
“Let’s go in without saying anything.”
Annoyingly, Wonhoo firmly grabbed Dosun’s wrist and opened the door to the emergency room.
“Oh my, why are you holding my wrist? Maybe you…”
“That mouth of yours!”
“Yes!”
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
