“By any chance, did you hear anything from Seong Jichan?”
“What are you talking about?”
Nonsense like me liking you.
Not only was it a problem that the story wasn’t true, but I also didn’t want strange rumors to spread, making things awkward between Sunwoo Jin and me.
Looking at his expression, Sunwoo Jin seemed to have no clue about the conversation that had taken place behind his back. I sighed with relief.
“Never mind if you didn’t hear anything.”
“Why bring this up out of the blue?”
Sunwoo Jin looked puzzled, but I felt a lot lighter in my heart.
“Let’s just go home.”
To get to our neighborhood, we had to take the bus. Sunwoo Jin didn’t need to take the bus, but he waited with me for the bus to arrive.
After getting on the bus, I waved to Sunwoo Jin through the window. Suddenly, I felt a sense of déjà vu.
Come to think of it, there was a similar situation on the first day of possession.
Today, it feels like I keep comparing the present with the past. That’s probably because my relationship with Sunwoo Jin has changed.
Sunwoo Jin looked at me with a chubby face and then shook hands with me. I found his crooked appearance amusing and burst into laughter.
The next day.
“Hello, nice to see you again.”
Lunchtime, which I expected to be peaceful.
I unexpectedly encountered someone.
“Hello.”
It was Kim Jaeyoung.
He received my greeting and smiled brightly.
“Can I sit here?”
When I nodded, Kim Jaeyoung immediately sat down next to me.
“Do you keep eating here these days?”
“Yeah.”
I roughly stuffed a cafeteria bread into my mouth and nodded. Kim Jaeyoung, looking concerned, said,
“Don’t you eat the school meals? You’ll get hungry if you only eat bread.”
“I went to the cafeteria.”
“Oh?”
After a moment of apparent confusion, Kim Jaeyoung burst into laughter.
I glanced at him for a moment, then put the remaining bread in my mouth and chewed slowly.
So, the situation was like this.
Since joining Yu Hui-na’s group of ‘Sadaegirls,’ I started eating lunch with them. However, I still couldn’t relax and eat my meal.
It was all because of Ddakgari 1 and 2, Kim Jieun and Lee Dahee.
They couldn’t easily accept the presence of a new face like me. So, every lunchtime, I had to eat feeling like I was about to choke.
No matter how much they gave me a hard time, I just wanted to dismiss them and return to being unofficially ostracized.
‘I thought I would get along with other extras.’
Eventually, due to the awkward atmosphere, I ended up leaving most of the blood-like school meals behind and bought lunch separately at the school store.
‘I want to stop eating just bread too.’
Sitting on a bench near the playground and crunching on the school store bread made me feel extremely pathetic.
“Don’t you get tired of eating just bread every time?”
Kim Jaeyoung, who barely suppressed his laughter, said. I replied firmly,
“I do.”
“But why do you keep eating only bread?”
Because I don’t have money.
I had a lot to say about my pitiful bank balance, but since explaining everything would take too long, I decided to skip it. Kim Jaeyoung looked at me with amused eyes.
“Will you be here tomorrow too?”
“Probably.”
“Can I come tomorrow too?”
Huh? I turned my head to look at Kim Jaeyoung’s face. He closed his eyes with a grin.
“Is it okay?”
I nodded as if enchanted. Originally, it wasn’t my personal space, so there was no need for permission or rejection, but… I was lacking resistance to Kim Jaeyoung’s attack on my face.
After leaving those words, Kim Jaeyoung disappeared into the classroom.
I stared blankly at his receding figure.
“… What was that just now?”
That’s how I gained a new lunch friend.
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.
