Eun Jae fidgeted in the car heading to the district office, gripping the seatbelt tightly for no reason and only staring out the window. Perhaps due to the warmer weather, her hands—clutching the belt—were soaked with sweat.

She clearly felt the man’s gaze resting on her, yet Eun Jae absolutely refused to look back.

After realizing last night’s memory was not a dream, she no longer had the courage to meet his eyes directly.

She already knew her feelings had grown far beyond concealment—but they must never be discovered, nor ever voiced. It was, after all, a clear breach of contract, and the damage it would cause her was immense.

‘Just what on earth did you do to him, Ji Eun Jae?’

The more she tried to piece together last night’s fragmented, disjointed memories, the more sighs slipped out between her teeth.

She had been drunk—and when she opened her eyes, there he was, within her hazy vision: the very person she had longed for.

His deep, ocean-like eyes, gazing at her with tender affection, pulled her in ceaselessly, like a magnet. Her gaze remained fixed on his unusually vivid, crimson lips—unable to look away.

She wanted to swallow him whole. She craved him.

Even if only in a dream, she wished simply to possess him—that alone was her sole desire.

“A drunken cat must’ve bitten you or something.”

The man knew everything. He had figured it all out.

Yet unaware, just hours ago, she had naively asked him—without the slightest suspicion—what he’d eaten last night, why his lips looked that way. She wanted to stuff her past self right back into a mousehole.

What do I do now?

Faced with a problem offering no visible escape, Eun Jae exhaled deeply, as if surrendering altogether.

I Became a Supporting Character in a Martial Arts Novel (Completed Main Story)

Chapter 165 Chapter 164

Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman

When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…

One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.

Synopsis

During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.

Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.

Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”

Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.

Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”

With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.

Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?

He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
