When I Reach You (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 73
Just as the murmuring voices of the crowd had grown very faint, Tae Gyu—who had reached the dead-end corridor—released Na Rim’s wrist and abruptly turned his body.
“You said you wouldn’t cling over such a trivial matter, didn’t you?”
“What do you mean? Are you saying I chased after Professor Yoon or something?”
Tae Gyu slowly scanned Na Rim, who let out a hollow laugh as though utterly dumbfounded—until his gaze instinctively halted at a certain point.
‘There’s no one crazier than this idiot—how can he be staring *there* at a time like this…?’
Quickly averting his eyes, Tae Gyu exhaled a short breath into the air and pressed his fingers against his throbbing forehead.
“You said you liked me.”
Faced with a question she couldn’t possibly justify, Na Rim tightly closed her mouth.
“Nurse Lee—I mean, Lee Na Rim. You won’t be able to charm me that way.”
Watching Tae Gyu lift one corner of his lips in a mocking sneer, warmth suddenly flared in her chest.
You’ve suffered heartbreak yourself before.
You’ve also struggled, unable to let go—you understand all too well. You know how small I feel standing before you. You know how even a careless remark from you can wound me deeply.
And even though she knew she wouldn’t receive the answer she wanted, Na Rim still longed to ask:

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
Love at first sight without realizing it, gradually falling in love, slowly getting closer…
Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!
