Home? At the completely unexpected answer, surprised Eun Jae opened her eyes wide and pointed at herself and asked.
“Me? Me too?”
“Do you think I’m going alone?”
With a disgruntled expression, Sun Woo put his arm into the jacket he had been holding. Eun Jae, following behind Sun Woo who was striding towards the entrance, asked.
“Suddenly? Wasn’t it decided that we would go after the wedding ceremony?”
“Grandfather told me to come in today.”
“What?”
Sun Woo, who had stopped walking, turned around and asked, looking into Eun Jae’s wideopen eyes.
“Anything else you’re curious about?”
“……”
“Nothing?”
At Eun Jae’s continued silence, the man’s body leaned forward towards her.
“Rather than being called from home, I think it’s better to be called now.”
“What, what do you mean……?”
“Or should I call you?”
The man’s lips moved softly towards Eun Jae’s ear without hesitation. The warm breath brushed the rim of her ear, and a sweet, mellifluous voice melted in.
“See you later, darling.”
Eun Jae, who was packing, wanted to deny reality. Suddenly going home without any preparation.
She lacked confidence. When she saw the man, her face would turn red, her mind would turn blank, and she would stutter. What if she got caught?
Moreover.
“Don’t go.”
“Can’t you just stay by my side?”
The fact that the memories of yesterday were slowly reviving made Eun Jae even more desperate.
She did not know if she would become a super fool the day she was caught remembering. The thought of being swayed by the whims of the man made her dizzy.
“Oh no, I can’t. I definitely can’t.”
Eun Jae, who had decided to deny it till the end, focused again on packing. As she put neatly folded clothes one by one into the large suitcase, it quickly filled up.
She had come into this house emptyhanded, when had she acquired so much luggage?
Suddenly, thinking of the day she first met him, Eun Jae laughed.
The times when they were awkward and tried not to get involved with each other.
It was a memory that she could reminisce about with a smile now.
Eun Jae’s hand, which had been packing the last remaining cosmetics, paused. And then, her hand moved towards her lips.
What had that kiss meant to the man?
It was too intense to be just a response to my drunkenness.
“I’m going crazy without being able to ask.”
Perhaps he might have developed different feelings for me.
She couldn’t erase the inevitable desire to hope.
It felt like spring had just arrived and cherry blossoms had just started to flutter, but before she knew it, lush green leaves had sprung up where the cherry blossoms had fallen.
Although there were still significant temperature differences between day and night, it felt like summer was soon to arrive. With a pretty smile on his lips, Sun Woo turned the wheel, embracing the somewhat hot and humid air.
He laughed. He just kept laughing.
The reason was clear. It was because of Ji Eun Jae.
He had made up an excuse that he had urgent business at the hospital, but Sun Woo was not heading to the hospital.
Sun Woo entered a luxury jewelry store.
Originally, he had planned to let Eun Jae buy whatever she wanted as a commemoration on the day they registered their marriage.
That was then, and now, he wanted to choose it himself. He wanted to feel like he was giving a gift. He thought it would be even better if he could see Eun Jae’s face, which he liked, one more time.
Sun Woo slowly scanned the glittering display case. There were many kinds and because he had no experience, everything looked the same to Sun Woo’s eyes. A staff member with a smile on her face kindly asked him.
“Are you looking for something special?”
“Can you recommend something?”
“Who is the gift for?”
After a moment of contemplation, only one person came to mind. Sun Woo’s lips naturally curved into a smile at the sight of Eun Jae’s brightly smiling face.
“It’s a gift for my wife.”
The employee, who also smiled, placed a few necklaces on the display stand. Among them, one necklace particularly caught Sun Woo’s eye. An employee who had been carefully watching Sun Woo’s gaze explained with a smile.
“This is a new product from G Company. The design is a bit unique, isn’t it? It’s a lock pendant made of threecarat diamonds.”
The employee separated the necklace from the box and demonstrated it.
“This chain acts as a lock. It’s designed to lock like this with a padlock. Even though they all look the same, they are custommade, so the matching keys are all different. The special thing about this product is……”
Listening to the employee’s explanation while looking down at the necklace, Sun Woo answered without hesitation at the last thing the employee said.
“I’ll take that one.”
Sun Woo’s car, loaded with Eun Jae’s luggage, headed towards the main house. Even before the move, the sunset outside had quickly turned dark.
Perhaps because the house was located in a somewhat secluded place, the road leading to the main house had become dark enough to obscure the view.
They had been driving for quite a while.
My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)
A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage
Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.
In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.
As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.
Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.
She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.
“Brother, come home with me.”
