“Alright, I get it. Now go away. I don’t want to seem crazy again.”
I remembered how I was labeled a weirdo for talking to the system in front of Yu Hui-na.
My reputation was already ruined, but there’s a world of difference between ‘weird’ and ‘insane’. I couldn’t afford to be seen as crazy by Seon Woo-jin too.
I wanted to maintain my human dignity.
But the system didn’t appreciate my deep thoughts.
[“No! I have to keep an eye on you to make sure you’re working hard ㅇ_ㅇ!”]Frustrated, I raised my voice.
“No, I mean, just go away and watch quietly, okay?”
At that moment, my eyes met with Seon Woo-jin’s, who was coming with hamburgers.
Oh.
Silence fell between us for a moment.
After a long pause, Seon Woo-jin spoke with a bemused face.
“You… talk to yourself?”
“…….”
And so, after Yu Hui-na, I also became known as a crazy person to Seon Woo-jin.
After dinner. We returned to the school.
“I really enjoyed the meal. I’ll be going now. Bye.”
When we arrived in front of the main building where my class was, I tried to subtly wrap things up.
Let’s end this warmly right here!
I had left my pencil case in the infirmary, but I could get it tomorrow. I was planning to just pick up my bag from the classroom and head home.
But Seon Woo-jin frowned as if my suggestion was strange.
“Going? Where?”
I took a small step backward.
“……Home?”
“What?”
As our eyes met, a bad feeling crept up on me.
…Run.
I quickly turned to dash inside the main building.
But as soon as I turned around, Seon Woo-jin grabbed my hoodie from behind.
“Going where? You have to work as much as you ate.”
So much for being a good guy!
In the end, I was dragged away by Seon Woo-jin.
“Work until self-study ends.”
Such a harsh taskmaster.
If I had known, I wouldn’t have followed him for a meal.
“The chic boy can freeze to death…….”
I grumbled intensely, but Seon Woo-jin didn’t blink an eye. Tough guy….
‘I’ll never return to this infirmary again.’
As I grumbled, we soon arrived at the building with the infirmary.
Now, let me briefly explain the structure of this school.
Jeil High consists of a total of six buildings.
These buildings were not planned from the start but were built one by one as needed. Hence, their sizes and exteriors varied, and their locations were arbitrary.
Among them, the old school building housing the second infirmary was far from most of the school buildings.
That’s why there were very few people around this area.
“I said I was sorry!”
…Which means such voices are usually not heard here.
“Why don’t you understand my feelings…!”
A sharp female voice rang out.
The sound was coming from behind the old school building, in an open area.
‘What’s going on…?’
I intuitively knew this conversation was going to be interesting.
Honestly, with that kind of talk in that place, how could it not be intriguing?
‘It’s definitely a love triangle drama.’
However, the wisdom gained from reading countless transmigration novels warned me. Just ignore it and move on.
In theory, a transmigrator should not intervene in such situations.
‘Getting involved will only make things tiresome.’
The fear of triggering some crazy romantic drama plot kept me cautious.
Right, just pretend I didn’t hear anything and walk away. What’s the point of eavesdropping on others’ stories?
Snooping on high schoolers’ love lives at my age would be disgraceful.
I sneaked a glance at Seon Woo-jin.
Well, Seon Woo-jin isn’t the type to care about such things. If I pretend I didn’t hear, he’ll probably just walk past…
“……Hey, hey. Where are you going?”
Contrary to my expectation, Seon Woo-jin suddenly started walking towards the open area.
I stared blankly at his retreating figure, then quickly came to my senses and followed him.
‘What? This isn’t like him.’
The Seon Woo-jin I knew was indifferent to others’ affairs and generally nonchalant. In the original story, this was packaged as being quiet and cool, but he certainly wasn’t someone to enjoy gossip.
‘…Was I wrong about him?’
I tilted my head in confusion and approached Seon Woo-jin.
He was hiding his body against the outer wall of the building and peering into the open area.
I tapped him on the back and spoke.
“What’s with you, suddenly? Do you know them? Mmph!”
Suddenly, Seon Woo-jin covered my mouth with his hand.
His hand covered my mouth, but his gaze was still fixed on something in the distance.
‘What? Who is it?’
Confused, I ducked my head and peeked inside.
As expected, there was a girl standing in the open area, likely the owner of the voice I heard earlier.
And across from her stood another person.
Shockingly, it was someone I knew.
‘……Huh?’
It was the male lead of this novel, Seong Ji-chan.
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
Trigger warning: All men in this novel are yandere style.
