“What could he be thinking?
Sometimes, my husband would look at me with such incomprehensible eyes. Every time, Seo-yeon tried to gauge his intentions, but until she decided to divorce, his true feelings remained elusive.
Her husband was a man of clear distinctions, even in expressing his emotions. Nevertheless, it was strange that she, as his wife, couldn’t read his mind at all. And it was lonely.
In the midst of her thoughts, the nurse’s voice informed that the treatment was over. Seo-yeon, who followed her husband out into the corridor, checked the time and expressed her concern.
“Are you okay?”
“What?”
“I asked you to stay with me for only 30 minutes, and it’s already been an hour. Aren’t you busy?”
Seong-jun, who had been looking at his wristwatch, fixed his gaze on Seo-yeon again and said, “I need to go now. I called for a car, and it’ll be here soon. Go back riding in that car when you leave.”
It was unusual for him to grant her request during his peak working hours. Seo-yeon, who knew how busy he was at this time, nodded obediently.
“I understand.”
It was regrettable not to have a proper conversation with her husband, but she couldn’t persistently insist on it.
However, an unexpected silence followed.
Curious, Seo-yeon raised her head to examine her husband’s expression.
His eyes were narrowing, and his eyebrows even furrowed as he gazed at her. Seo-yeon well understood the meaning behind her husband’s expression.
It was the expression he made when something displeased him.
Despite agreeing to go home as he wished, his stern gaze, which seemed dissatisfied, made Seo-yeon feel perplexed.
“How’s your health?”
Fortunately, Seong-jun changed the topic first. Maybe it was because she had been lying down comfortably for a short time, or perhaps it was the effect of the IV. Her physical condition had improved noticeably compared to before the hospital visit.
Moreover, she felt strange when her husband unexpectedly expressed concern about her.
Nodding slightly, Seo-yeon replied, “I feel okay. Thanks to your suggestion to get the IV, I feel much lighter.”
Seong-jun, who was much taller than Seo-yeon, lowered his gaze and glanced at her for a moment.
“In the future, if you’re not feeling well, don’t stubbornly endure it. Go to the hospital on time.”
Even with Seong-jun’s continued nagging, Seo-yeon silently nodded.
“I will.”
“Is there something you want to talk about?”
“?”
“Didn’t you ask me to stay for 30 minutes to talk? What is it? Tell me.”
Even in her previous life, Seo-yeon, who used to avoid Seong-jun, sometimes made an effort to initiate a conversation with him.
To dispel the misunderstandings he harbored about her. And with the hope that such conversations might be the starting point for some improvement in the broken relationship between the two.”
“I don’t have much time, so keep it brief if possible. What’s the matter? Is it something important?”
However, whenever Seong-jun, with a cold expression like today, glanced at his watch while talking about matters, her determination would vanish without a trace.
Rather, she felt that the line drawn between him and herself became even clearer. Consequently, as time passed, Seo-yeon became someone who couldn’t speak casually to her husband, someone she couldn’t cross.
Seo-yeon’s face stiffened in an instant.
It was because of the vague feeling, confusion, and the emotions of resentment towards Seong-jun that she had felt at that moment all rushed back.
Unintentionally, Seo-yeon asked while regaining her composure, “I don’t have anything to talk about, but I just wanted to be with you. Is that not allowed?”
Taken aback by Seo-yeon’s unexpected boldness, Seong-jun’s eyes widened. He even retreated a step as if avoiding the approaching Seo-yeon, provocatively.
“Is it because you’re in pain?”
After a while, Seo-yeon subtly furrowed her eyebrows at Seong-jun’s voice, which came out like a soliloquy.
‘Is he asking why I’m doing something I didn’t do before?’
If that was the case, Seo-yeon had plenty to say.
In her past life, at the moment she decided to divorce, Seo-yeon paid off all the emotional debts she had towards Seong-jun and his family.
She fulfilled everything they wanted within the bounds of what she could do.
Even though it was painful, she maintained her position as a wife, fulfilled her duties, and obediently withdrew without expressing her opinions or stubbornness at her mother-in-law’s request to step back.
Of course, to Seong-jun, the events of the past were something he had never experienced or witnessed, but even if he didn’t know, Seo-yeon didn’t want to live the same life as before. And there was no reason to.
A little boy passed between the two at that moment.
The child looked to be about four or five years old.
Seo-yeon’s eyes widened slightly.
After a while, a woman who seemed to be the boy’s mother ran up, grabbed the boy’s small hand, and walked away.
Until the two disappeared from sight, Seo-yeon, who couldn’t take her eyes off them, turned her head back to Seong-jun.
“At night.”

Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
