Seon Woo-jin.
Among the Samdaeboui, he’s the one in charge of being the ‘Chic Boy’ and also a friend of the male protagonist, ‘_’.
Waiting behind the curtain was the very man who was so silent that his presence almost faded away.
The moment I saw Seon Woo-jin’s face, I froze.
‘Why on earth is he here?’
As I mentioned earlier, Seon Woo-jin and Sung Ji-chan are usually hard to find in school.
It was the students’ guess that they were hiding somewhere other than the classrooms… But who would have thought it was here?
Meanwhile, Seon Woo-jin, awakened by the commotion, frowned and opened his eyes.
“Ah, it’s so noisy… Huh? Hey, who are you… Mmph!”
I quickly covered Seon Woo-jin’s mouth with my hand and entered, drawing the curtain shut.
Snap!
“Teacher, are you sure you haven’t seen her?”
“Um… Well, I don’t think I saw anyone.”
“Really? It looked like she came in here…”
Nice one, teacher.
Fortunately, the health teacher honored my request.
I listened to the conversation outside the curtain, raised my index finger to my lips, and looked at Seon Woo-jin, silently pleading for him to be quiet.
Seon Woo-jin understood my signal, but instead of nodding… he scrutinized me with an even stranger look, as if thinking, ‘How should I deal with this?’
…It seemed I was in big trouble.
But it was too late to go outside now.
I was caught between a rock and a hard place.
Then, I heard this from outside.
“Teacher, can we just check inside once, just to be sure?”
No, go away!
I screamed internally.
The kid looking for Chun-ja was annoyingly persistent.
Even though the teacher had promised me. Overwhelmed by the situation, the health teacher inadvertently agreed.
Teacher, you shouldn’t have said yes!
Then, it happened.
“Move aside.”
In a moment of loosened grip, Seon Woo-jin pushed away my hand that had been covering his mouth and got up.
‘No, this can’t be happening!’
Realizing too late, I tried to hold him back again.
Seon Woo-jin brushed off my hand.
Then, with a look of annoyance, he threw a blanket over me and opened the curtain.
Seon Woo-jin spoke to those outside.
“It’s so noisy, I can’t sleep.”
There was a gasp of breath from outside.
Apparently, the kid looking for Chun-ja was shocked to see Seon Woo-jin.
“Hey, haven’t you heard of ‘be quiet in the health room’? Enough already, get lost.”
True to a friend of the top delinquent, Seon Woo-jin’s choice of words was unfiltered, even in front of a teacher.
But the other party was quite tenacious too.
Powered by the prospect of a Hawaiian plane ticket, the kid hesitantly but firmly tried to look inside.
Seon Woo-jin spoke again.
“What are you doing? The patient here says it’s too loud. Aren’t you going to leave?”
“Ah, so, so, so, sorry!”
The kid searching for Chun-ja quickly apologized and ran out.
…But were you really a patient? You didn’t look sick at all.
Anyway, Seon Woo-jin’s heroic actions brought silence back to the health room.
Seon Woo-jin, still half-asleep, grumbled something lowly. It sounded like cursing.
‘Is it all over?’
I slowly lifted the blanket that had been thrown over me and peeked outside.
In the health room were the teacher and Seon Woo-jin. A shadow flickered behind the curtain of the bed opposite. No one else seemed to be around.
‘Phew, I survived.’
I exhaled a sigh of relief and sat down on the bed.
My legs were wobbly after the all-out sprint earlier.
I punched my legs with my fists and then stretched out.
‘Ah, I feel alive.’
That’s when I felt a piercing gaze.
What now? I looked around, searching for the source of the stare.
And then, my eyes met Seon Woo-jin’s directly.
“Hey, what are you?”
Oops.
“…And that’s how I ended up here.”
I explained the whole situation calmly.
At first, I was only talking to Seon Woo-jin, but at some point, the teacher also started listening to my story.
“Sorry about earlier. I was in such a hurry… I didn’t mean to wake you up. Really sorry.”
Despite my repeated apologies, Seon Woo-jin’s expression remained unchanged. His face was still full of irritation.
…It seemed like he just hadn’t woken up properly yet.
On the other hand, the health teacher looked extremely intrigued.
“So, you ended up like this because of Ha-min?”
Judging by his tone, the teacher seemed to know Ban Ha-min well.
“Yes, well… something like that.”
“Really? Then why don’t you just be friends with Ha-min?”
“Me? No, I don’t want to.”
My true feelings slipped out without thinking.
“Oh? Why not?”
Well, because that guy is a friend of the male protagonist.
…Of course, I couldn’t say that. I had to find a reasonable excuse.
“I’m scared of his fan club.”
To be honest, it wasn’t really an excuse. I was genuinely terrified of Ban Ha-min’s fan club.
The fan clubs in this world weren’t just in name; they were quite an active group.
Their activities resembled those of fan clubs in old romance comics.
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.
