“Sit down,” Kwon Seung-joo said, taking out an apron.
“I’ll prepare the meal for you.”
Thinking there would only be bottled water, she hadn’t bothered to open the fridge from the beginning. As it turned out, various items were stored in it, including meat, fruits, various vegetables, and even seafood… There was even a large fresh ham, not an ordinary processed product.
“Stir-fried rice is quick. Shrimp, or ham?”
The landlord asked, opening a package of instant rice on the spot.
After saying something unnecessary earlier and suffering the consequences, Eun-seo honestly answered with her face pressed against the iron plate.
“Shrimp, no, ham… No, I’m sorry, shrimp.”
About ten minutes later, the fried rice that came out had both shrimp and ham. Plus, there was also an egg.
And so, at twelve o’clock at night, Eun-seo ended up eating fried rice while looking down at the splendid night view in the spacious dining room of the penthouse.
“Aren’t you eating, sir?”
Kwon Seung-joo, who was watching Eun-seo eat with his arms crossed from the other side of the large table, responded.
“You eat as much as you want.”
So, people become closer by eating together. Strictly speaking, she was eating alone, though.
In any case, sitting across from each other at the table, Eun-seo had been curious all along but hadn’t dared to ask. She now had the courage to subtly inquire about something she hadn’t asked before.
“Um, I’ve been thinking since last time. Why do you speak informally to me, sir?”
Last time, she thought it was because he was angry, but today, even though he wasn’t angry, he continued to speak informally.
“I said sit down.”
Kwon Seung-joo said, taking out an apron.

Last time, she thought it was because he was angry, but today, even though he wasn’t angry, he continued to speak informally.
Eun-seo immediately raised her hand.
“Oh, yes.”
Indeed, it looked very expensive, and she felt she should be concerned about compensation if she accidentally broke even a single item.
“Then, have a good night.”
Eun-seo returned to her room and lay back on the bed. Unlike before, sleep came easily now that her stomach was full.
She felt grateful to the gruff man belatedly. If he hadn’t forcibly brought her here, she might be sleeping somewhere like a strange motel right now, worrying about what to do tomorrow.
‘I wish he would be a little less cold…’
With that thought, Eun-seo fell into a deep sleep.
In the quiet predawn at five-thirty, a car was parked in front of D.H. Signature Apartments. It was Kwon Seung-joo’s commuting time.
The secretary, who got out of the car, moved away, avoiding the driver’s gaze, and answered a call from someone.
“Yes, Madam. There are no signs of anything unusual yet.”
The person on the other end of the call was none other than Jiyeon Hwa.
Really? There was no mention of the accident at that time, right? No instructions to investigate or anything?
Hwa asked repeatedly as if confirming several times.
“Yes. Right now, there is a lot going on during the time the person is away, so things are quite chaotic. If you have any instructions or anything in the future, I will report immediately.”
Having said that, just as the representative was coming out from nearby, the secretary was surprised. The corner of his mouth, which had always been stiff, seemed to have lifted slightly.
“Is there something good happening to you?”
“Not really.”
When the driver opened the back seat door, the representative didn’t get in right away. Instead, he suddenly asked the secretary.
“How long have you been working with me, Secretary Kim?”
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.
