It was true that she had received a lot of help, but if she didn’t cooperate, he would have a lot to lose too.
Wasn’t the hospital what he habitually referred to as his everything?
Should I catch your weakness and shake it too? Pretend to be crazy and suggest we date for the rest of the time?
You did the same. You had my weakness in your grasp and did as you pleased.
“So be nice to me, Yoon Sun Woo!”
Your hospital is in my hands after all.
Just as she was about to head back to her room after washing the glass she drank water from, she heard something strange coming from the man’s room. Wondering if she had heard wrong, Eun Jae tilted her head and slowly approached the man’s room, pressing her ear against the gap in the door.
The man’s faint moans were seeping through the narrow gap.
“Mister?”
There was no reply. The sound of the man’s labored breathing still echoed through the gap.
She recalled the man’s face from yesterday, looking particularly fatigued. She was suddenly worried if he was unwell.
“Mister, are you alright?”
Eun Jae, who was about to touch the doorknob, hesitated and withdrew her hand.
He had never even allowed her to clean his space, let alone do his laundry.
“Yeah, he’s the one who wants to draw lines. It’s none of my business.”
She tried hard to ignore it, to put it out of her mind, but her feet wouldn’t move.
And when the man’s deep moan echoed once again, all her previous resolutions crumbled in an instant.
“Ah! I don’t care.”
Eun Jae turned around and flung open the man’s door.
The door, which she assumed would be locked, opened without any resistance. As she stepped into the room, the scent that always emanated from the man filled her lungs deeply.
The neatly arranged black furniture seemed to represent the man’s personality at a glance.
Her gaze, darting around the spacious man’s room, landed on the bed.
There, soaked in sweat and with a pained expression, Sun Woo was panting heavily.
“Mister!”
Startled, Eun Jae quickly approached Sun Woo, shaking him by the shoulder. But Sun Woo merely exhaled ragged breaths.
She placed her hand on his forehead. It seemed he didn’t have a fever, could he be having a bad dream?
Pulling her sleeve, Eun Jae pressed it against Sun Woo’s forehead to wipe the sweat. Then she gently brushed back his hair that was soaked with sweat.
“It’s okay. It will be okay.”
When she was a child, during her growth spurt, there were days when she had nightmares constantly.
Whenever that happened, her mother would stay up all night, brushing her hair, whispering that it was okay.
Remembering those times and stroking the man’s hair as if reciting a spell, the man’s strained moans gradually subsided.
“Phew… what a relief. That startled me.”
Her gaze was drawn in succession to his neatly exposed forehead, his beautifully shaped eyebrows beneath it, his long, dense eyelashes, and his graceful nose bridge.
And her eyes lingered on his moist lips tinged with a suitable shade of red for quite some time.
For a moment, she had the urge to touch them, and her fingers twitched, but Eun Jae quickly came to her senses.
“What am I thinking in front of a sleeping person.”
Looking at the man’s face, which had become somewhat relaxed, Eun Jae withdrew her hand from his forehead. She stood up from the bed and turned around with a sigh of relief.
Suddenly.
The man grabbed Eun Jae’s wrist and pulled her with a strong force.
“Ah!”
Losing her balance, Eun Jae tumbled onto the bed with Sun Woo. Their noses almost touched.
“What are you doing here.”

When male lead is the homewrecker
“I know she doesn’t love him.”
I’ve read the novel below twice already. Girls, I’m highly recommending it to you!
The female lead? Not a good person.
The second male lead? Not a good person.
The male lead? Willingly plays the third party, breaking up the female and second male lead’s relationship despite all the warnings from his friends—so yeah, he’s definitely not a good person either.
Basically, nobody in this novel is simple-minded or without scheming.
The female lead starts off as the male lead’s secretary, but don’t worry—later on, she takes over the company while the male lead steps back to support her. He won’t steal her spotlight, overshadow her, or dull her shine.
I love novels where men are out here snatching wigs, tearing each other down, and going to war just to win the female lead’s affection. And this is exactly that kind of novel. Most of Hai Dai Ran’s works have this dynamic. You’ll see the male characters’ emotions being pushed to the absolute extreme.
There’s even a scene where the second male lead exposes the male lead online for being a homewrecker. The brotherhood immediately gangs up on him, dragging him through the mud. I find it compelling —it completely flips reality on its head, where usually, women are the ones fighting over a man and getting torn apart by the sisterhood.
For me, female leads in the novels I read should only struggle in their careers, not in love. But if the brainless romantics in the story are all men? I have zero complaints.
I’ve pretty much read all of Hai Dai Ran’s novels and even translated all of them—her works are just my thing. I’ll slowly upload everything here. One day, when my website is official, I hope I can invite her to join as one of the star authors.
Here’s the story synopsis:
One-line summary: She is his lifelong obsession, to the point where he was willing to be a third wheel, scorned by society, just to wedge his way into her relationship with her fiancé.
Cold-hearted and indifferent female lead + Scheming and subservient CEO male lead
Intro 1:
“I know she doesn’t love him.”
With blood trickling from his clenched fist, Rong Xiu gazed at the woman before him, his eyes clouded with anguish. Hidden in the wardrobe, he had witnessed Fan Xia – the woman he desperately loved – in an intimate embrace with her fiancé. Yet his heart still yearned for her, defying all reason.
Fan Xia, the elegant and composed assistant, carried something mysterious in her eyes whenever she looked at her fiancé, Wen Lan Sheng. Strange occurrences began to surface – secret meetings with the young Gu Jin Yi, an unexplained withdrawal of 5,000 yuan… Then suddenly, her fiancé’s sister, Wen Jing, violently attacked her.
In this matriarchal society, Rong Xiu had risen to become the chairman of a powerful healthcare conglomerate, breaking through gender prejudices. But for the first time, he willingly stepped into the shadows as the other man, disregarding his friends’ warnings to become her secret lover.
Because he had discovered the truth – Fan Xia wasn’t the pure angel everyone believed her to be. And perhaps, he was the only one capable of helping her execute her mysterious plan…
Intro 2:
Rong Xiu’s biggest regret in life was missing out on Fan Xia.
He secretly loved Fan Xia for 7 years.
Watched her go public with her boyfriend.
Watched her kiss her boyfriend at their wedding.
Until that man blissfully nestled in Fan Xia’s arms, obtaining everything he could only dream of.
The crazy jealousy stripped away his hidden secret love, layer by layer, burning like wildfire.
Fan Xia, how can I have you!
