Exiting the building, Lajin covered her mouth with the back of her hand. Her lips were still warm and tingly. Even though she had firmly stated that it was absolutely forbidden at work, Jae-hun, as if unable to resist, pressed his lips together.
“Director, please stop now…”
“Just a little more.”
“You’ve been saying that since earlier.”
“That’s right. Who looks so pretty? Your face looks beautiful after a kiss. It’s so pretty that I want to kiss it again. What should I do about that?”
“That’s not the point!”
“It’s not forced; it’s sincere. So, just one more time, okay?”
Unable to resist the handsome face assault, Lajin, pretending to be unable to overcome Jae-hun’s overlapping lips, hugged him, looping her arms around his neck.
Every time the tension in her legs relaxed, his strong and sturdy arms would bend her waist, and when she held Jae-hun’s shoulders, they intertwined deeply.
The wet muscles on the only man whose whole body was as firm as a pine tree felt strangely peculiar.
“It feels like I’m still caught.”
Blushing, Lajin stroked her slightly swollen lower lip with her fingers.
This is a problem. I have to find a new house and proceed with the eviction. When I’m with Jae-hun, the sense of reality keeps disappearing; it’s a big problem.
Lajin tried to regain her composure by tapping her head lightly.
“Hurry. Sunwoo oppa must be waiting.”
It was rare for Sunwoo to suggest a meal like today, but it wasn’t the first time. He often contacted her first, passing by the vicinity of her company. If time allowed, he would suggest having a meal or a cup of tea.
But this time, he said he had ‘urgent business.’
What on earth could it be?
No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn’t figure out the reason.
Then, a small regret arose.
‘I should have contacted him first.’
Apparently, the incident when she met Sunwoo in front of her house bothered her.
How embarrassed she must have been unexpectedly involved in someone else’s family dispute.
Although she had a kind and considerate personality and didn’t show it on the surface, she must have felt uncomfortable internally.
‘I need to apologize properly.’
As she was thinking about it, they arrived at the Chinese restaurant where she and Sunwoo had agreed to meet.
The agreed-upon place was a Chinese restaurant with the common name ‘Jagumsung.’ It was popular among office workers as it offered excellent taste at a reasonable price.
Sunwoo was in the ‘Maehwasil,’ the second room on the left after passing through the corridor.
“Sorry for rushing; I rushed, thinking I was late.”
“No, you arrived right on time. I came a bit early.”
Seated facing each other at a round table, the two ordered the lunch specials.
“Oppa, I want to apologize first.”
Sunwoo’s eyes widened.
“Apologize?”
“Yes, about last time… When we ran into my mother. I feel like I was rude.”
Lajin’s voice, calling him ‘mother,’ trembled.
She didn’t like causing trouble to others and didn’t want to show any weakness. That day, Lajin must have been extremely embarrassed.
It wasn’t necessary. She could have shown any side of herself to me.
Sunwoo forcefully suppressed the swelling emotions.
“No, it’s okay. It could happen.”
“I’m sorry. You must have felt uncomfortable.”
“Lajin.”
With her head bowed as if she had no face, she raised her face.
His unusually large and clear pupils were solely directed at her.
From the slightly lowered eyebrows that seemed apologetic to the upward-sloping eyelashes.
There wasn’t a single unattractive aspect.
“Sunwoo oppa?”
When her lips, which seemed a bit plumper than usual, opened, calling him, Sunwoo’s heartbeat quickened.
Pounding.
It seemed like the sound of his heartbeats filled the space.
When he reached out instinctively to hold Lajin’s moist and soft hand lying on the table, prompted by her worried voice.
“Oppa, are you okay?”
Startled by her concerned voice, Sunwoo quickly withdrew his hand.
He turned his head halfway and splashed his face with water using one hand.
‘What am I doing right now…’
“Sunwoo oppa.”
Sunwoo took a shallow breath.
Hiding his feelings in front of Lajin and pretending to be casual were his specialties.
“Oh, sorry. I had a momentary headache.”
“A headache? If you need medicine, I can go and…”
“No, it’s momentary. It’s gone now.”
“If you’re not feeling well, please let me know.”
“Yeah, I will. And there’s no need to apologize, Lajin.”
Her expression darkened again at his words.
“I’m embarrassed. Showing that side of me.”
“You don’t have to be embarrassed. No matter what you show, it will look good to me.”
“Oppa is… so good with words. Since the first time we met and even now.”
Unlike someone who only spits out fatal words, she thought.
Even in this brief moment, Lajin thought of Jaehun.
“Oh, by the way, oppa. What’s the urgent matter?”
“Oh, that.”
Sunwoo hesitated.
Lajin seemed sensitive about matters related to her mother.
She seemed so embarrassed, and he wasn’t sure if he should talk about it.
But Sunwoo wanted to know.
How did Lajin explain him to her parents?
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.”
