With a deep sigh, Eunjeong approached Sunwoo as the bedroom door closed, as if she had been waiting while sitting on the sofa.
“When did you come?”
“Is Eunjae not feeling well?”
Eunjeong’s worried gaze was directed towards the firmly closed bedroom, not Sunwoo.
Although Sunwoo felt a momentary unease at the attention focused only on Eunjae, that unease didn’t feel particularly unpleasant. Sunwoo chuckled lightly.
“No, I just fell asleep right now, probably tired.”
For Eunjae who hurried to see him. Smiling silently at Eunjeong, who looked disappointed, Sunwoo gently took her shoulders.
“We can have dinner together later.”
Walking towards the sofa with brisk steps, Sunwoo turned back and looked at Eunjeong. When their eyes met, Sunwoo, sitting on the sofa, lightly tapped the seat next to him.
“If you’re not busy, would you like to talk with me?”
At Sunwoo’s words, Eunjeong shrank back with a shudder.
“Why, what are you going to talk about again? I get scared when you start talking.”
It’s nothing much. When Sunwoo laughed warmly and tapped the sofa again, Eunjeong reluctantly sat down across from him.
“It’s about Eunjae’s father.”
As the meal in the lounge was coming to an end, Taegyu toyed with the white card handed over by his long-time friend Donghun.
Lately, he’s been receiving wedding invitations frequently.
A wedding invitation from a friend who is bearing the fruit of a five-year relationship. Perhaps because he had repeated short-lived relationships, Donghun suddenly seemed quite impressive.
“Congratulations.”
“They say it’s too early, that you should enjoy everything and postpone it as much as possible.”
Did you think I would say that too? Donghun put down his cup and spoke.
“Surprising. You’re a confirmed bachelor.”
“Not quite a confirmed bachelor. It’s just that I don’t want to get married with some trash just because I want a hospital.”
“It’s probably because you’re not desperate enough. If you were desperate to get that hospital, wouldn’t you have held onto Jinhee?”
Regretting becoming a doctor. Taegyu laughed at Donghun’s words.
“Why suddenly bring her up?”
“So, do you not meet anyone these days?”
“No.”
Even a woman you find attractive? When Taegyu fell silent at Donghun’s question, Donghun on the opposite side chuckled.
“There is.”
“I’m enjoying being alone.”
“Another unrequited love? Anyway, Yuntaegyu, you seem surprisingly romantic.”
Oh, you know that? The person Hoseok is going to meet, the one I mentioned back then, was our schoolmate. Taegyu squinted at the luck Donghun casually mentioned.
“Why, did she look so much like Eunjae back in the day that people got confused? She was like that? Since the kids kept saying that, she came with dyed brown hair and stood out in my memory.”
Eunjae was famous for being both smart and pretty, so she overshadowed others. Donghun sighed briefly and took a sip of hallabong sorbet.
“We were in the same class in the first grade, but he didn’t attend school for only three months. Some heart disease, perhaps? I heard he almost died because of that. Looks like the surgery went well.”
“Heart disease?”
Come to think of it, Taekyu remembered witnessing Narim occasionally swallowing a small pill while passing by. Was it an immunosuppressant?
“I don’t know the details; the homeroom teacher said that at the time.”
Ah, so that’s why it’s in the album…
After that, Donghun continued to talk about Moore, but Taegyu couldn’t concentrate at all. When he was absorbed in various thoughts, some doubts he had about Narim were resolved. Then, a conversation he had with Eunjae a few months ago suddenly came to mind.
“Do you remember when we first met on the hill in front of the school?”
“Hill in front of the school? When? I don’t remember.”
“You always say you don’t remember. You were going up the hill, and suddenly it started raining, so I gave you my umbrella.”
“Did such a thing happen?”
Now that he thought about it, the face Eunjae made, raising her eyes in surprise, wasn’t a confused expression due to not remembering. It was an expression that genuinely didn’t know.
“Do you like me?”
“Maybe.”
“All of a sudden?”
“It’s not all of a sudden. I thought you were just clueless, but your memory is bad too.”
The words Narim had said while smiling brightly one day also came to mind. Taegyu touched his forehead with both hands and shook his head.
Then suddenly, the face of that female student in the umbrella came vividly into his mind, just like yesterday. The smile she gave him, closing her round eyes and smiling warmly at him, like a puppy.
It was you.
Crazy bastard, there’s nothing more confusing than this. I didn’t even know…
“Did you finish everything?”
As Taegyu picked up his belongings from around him one by one, Donghun, who was leisurely eating hallabong sorbet, asked, “What’s this, already leaving the store?”
“Oh, yeah. I should go. I’ll contact you again.”
Taegyu quickly dialed a number somewhere while putting on his jacket.
“Ms. Jung, I’m Yun Taegyu. Can you give me Nurse Lee Narim’s phone number?”
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
