‘Perhaps, like my older brother, Director Han had a poker face, making it more tolerable. If he were someone whose emotions changed every time I spoke, I might have been concerned about what he was thinking or whether he was paying attention.’
Thanks to not revealing his emotions, it was also a big help that Arin didn’t have to worry about what Director Han might be thinking.
Moreover, like a human guidebook, Director Han knew everything about New York. Everywhere they went, having him around felt reassuring.
Thanks to Director Han providing detailed explanations at the right moments, Arin found the sightseeing in New York more enjoyable.
“Please enjoy.”
“Ah, thank you.”
Director Han placed the burger set Arin ordered in front of her.
Arin expressed her gratitude to him in a soft voice.
“Enjoy your meal.”
“Yes. Please enjoy your meal too, Director-nim.”
Somehow, the first trip to New York seemed like it would be the best memory.
“That waffle over there is really delicious.”
While walking, Arin’s gaze shifted to where Director Han pointed.
“Then let’s have it.”
Arin, who bought two waffles, walked to Central Park, the most famous park in New York, with Director Han.
‘Now I can probably ask.’
While sitting down, Arin thought.
She had been curious all along but hadn’t asked that question because they weren’t close with Director Han. Now it seemed like she could ask.
“I’ve had something I wanted to ask Director-nim for a long time.”
“Yes.”
Director Han, who had been looking straight ahead, turned his gaze to Arin.
“When I was in Jeju Island, you came to see me not long after, right?”
Director Han nodded slightly in response to Arin’s question.
“Why didn’t you come to me right away back then? You kept lingering around me.”
“Yes.”
Jae Hyuk was the heir to VAN, the most famous group in South Korea. He knew that, with money and power, finding him wouldn’t be difficult for Director Han.
Knowing that people around Jae Hyuk, including Director Han, started hovering around her not long after she came to Jeju Island was after a neighbor’s granddaughter, a native of Jeju, mentioned it.
[There were unfamiliar people around Unni.] “Since then, Mr. Jaehyuk hasn’t appeared in front of me. So, it was strange.”The last time Jae Hyuk appeared was three years after she left him.
Arin wondered why, during those three years of lingering around her, not granting a divorce, Jae Hyuk didn’t appear in front of her.
Curious about the reason, Arin’s first question was met with silence from Director Han.
At that moment, Arin’s phone vibrated.
Jiyoon
“Excuse me. I’ll take this call.”
Seeking permission from Director Han, he pointed to the food truck on the opposite side.
“Then I’ll go over there for a moment too.”
After Director Han left, Arin pressed the call button.
“Jiyoon, what’s going on?”
Considering the time difference between the United States and Korea, it was odd for Jiyoon to call at this hour.
[Arin, is it okay now?]“Yeah, it’s okay. What’s going on?”
[Listen carefully to what I’m about to say.]“Yeah.”
In response to Jiyoon’s serious tone, Arin’s voice also sank.
[You don’t remember that night, right? Even now.]“That night?”
[Yeah, the night you were taken to the hospital. The person who took you to the hospital.]“Oh, I don’t. I really wanted to thank them. I don’t even know their name…”
[Oh, I met that nurse sister yesterday.]“Nurse sister?”
[Yeah, why did you drink with her before when you were hospitalized before? I was with you then. Since then, you’ve been hospitalized often, and she took care of you a lot, so you became close.]“Oh.”
Arin remembered the face of a nurse from a hospital in Jeju that Jiyoon was talking about.
“Did you drink with her?”
[Yeah, she said she retired and came to Seoul. So, we drank together yesterday, and the story came up…]After a brief hesitation, Jiyoon continued.
[Somehow, the story of the man who saved you on the night you were found in the sea came up.]“A man?”
[Yeah. Why, we tried to find him, but the hospital wouldn’t tell us. They said the other party didn’t want it.]Even though she wanted to express her gratitude, she could only convey it in her heart because she couldn’t find him.
[That nurse sister recently quit and told me he was a man. Extremely handsome.]“A man?”
[Yeah, tall, with a slender face, and just really handsome. He looked rich in a luxury suit.]Arin felt that the appearance she was describing was somewhat similar to Jae Hyuk.
‘It can’t be. He couldn’t be my brother.’
Denying the emotions within herself, at that moment, Jiyoon’s voice entered.
[Don’t misunderstand my words. Just hearing it made him seem like a vice chairman.]“Why is he there?”
[Hmm… I don’t know well, but it could be, but…]As Arin closed her mouth, Jiyoon, who noticed her emotional change, quickly turned the conversation.
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.
