Hyun Woo’s appearance overwhelmed even the noisy atmosphere.

But his sharp voice quickly wiped the smiles off the people’s faces.

He had come all the way to the company dinner, and told the new resident, who was just on her first day at work, to get up abruptly.

What on earth had Yu Sori done to make Professor Seo Hyun Woo so angry?

Everyone was watching the two of them with questioning eyes.

Even Se Hun, who had been plying Sori with alcohol, sensed something unusual and began to carefully watch his cues.

Sori was unable to regain her senses due to the strong whiskey she had quickly drunk.

Her vision blurred as her eyes filled with tears on the verge of falling.
“What are you doing, Doctor Yu Sori? You are not in your senses. The professor is calling you.”
Se Hun, who started scolding Sori on behalf of Hyun Woo, couldn’t finish his sentence.

Bang!

Startled by the sound of Sori’s glass being snatched from her hand and put down on the table, his lips froze at the sight of Hyun Woo’s glaring eyes.
“Did you make it like this?”
“Huh? No, professor. Doctor Yu was fine just now, why suddenly? Eun Seok, give her some water.”
Everyone was chatting freely and slowly enjoying the party atmosphere.

But why did Yu Sori have a face that looked like she was about to cry?
“Doctor Yu, stop pretending to be drunk and go out for some air. You must have relaxed after drinking because you were nervous on your first day. Professor, I think she might be mentally weak for being in her first year.”
What’s the matter?

Hyun Woo was so astounded he nearly let out a sarcastic laugh.

Eun Seok and Jong Woo, who were watching Se Hun, turned their heads to hide their stiffening expressions.

Hyun Woo checked the halfempty bottle of whiskey in front of Se Hun.

Just when he was about to say something more severe out of unbearable anger,
“Professor Seo, don’t be like that, sit down for a while since you’re here.”
The manager sitting at the back table said.
“I don’t know what kind of trouble this smart friend has gotten into, but give her a break today. It’s her first day.”
Thanks to the seemingly goodnatured manager, Park Seok Gu, Sori suddenly seemed like a new resident who had caused a big accident and came to the party.
“If I’ve disturbed the atmosphere, I apologize.”
Hyun Woo bowed respectfully to the manager.

And his mind changed from intending to take Sori and leave right away.
“Then I’ll sit down for a while and go. Manager.”
“Then I’ll go to the next table.”
“Kang Se Hun, just sit down.”
Without waiting for Se Hun to make room, he pushed him aside with his shoulder and sat down next to him. Se Hun swayed gruesomely to the side.

Hyun Woo waved his hand to the other doctors.

Everyone sitting on the semicircular cushioned chair quickly moved for Hyun Woo’s place.

And then, he pulled two ontherocks glasses towards me.
“Professor, I’ll add some ice for you.”
Eun Seok, sitting next to Sori, reached out his long arm and moved.

In the icefilled glass, Hyun Woo poured the whiskey steadily. The whiskey that had been half left was nearly running out.

The full glass was gently put in front of Se Hun by Hyun Woo. His gaze spoke volumes.

Drink it all.

While Se Hun raised his glass, keeping an eye on him, his face was filled with gratitude, as if this was some kind of affection.
“Thank you, Professor.”
Well, let’s see how long this thanks will last.

Swallowing the sigh that was ready to burst, Hyun Woo too gulped down the cold whiskey, driven by his burning thirst.

His gaze was fixed on the shimmering eyes of Yu Sori sitting in front of him.

To Sori, who was surprisingly watching him, he was pouring drinks to Se Hun for me.

With the most terrifying look on his face.

Could it be that the Professor is doing this because of me…?

Being drunk, her delusions ran wild.

Why would she think of something as ridiculous as ‘for me’?

Without taking a break, he drained the strong drink in his glass in one go. Following him, Se Hun also emptied his glass.

In Se Hun’s empty glass that was only filled with ice, he poured the remaining liquor from the bottle.

With a mere gesture, another whiskey bottle found its way into Hyun Woo’s hand.

Suddenly, Hyun Woo, who had filled his glass to the brim with whiskey, roughly pulled back on Se Hun’s nape.

Under the strong grip pressing on his nape, Se Hun winced in pain.
“Is it true that you’re the strongest drinker in NS?”
“Eh? Ah, yes, Professor. Everyone else can’t drink as much as me.”
“Is that so?”
Se Hun was quite proud of his drinking capacity in NS. So, he poured more drinks, as if testing his opponent in a drinking bout.
“Let’s see if that’s really true. We don’t have much time, so drink up quickly.”
He murmured it in such a low voice that only Se Hun could hear.

And just like that, the second bottle was emptied in no time. Without stopping to breathe, drinking the potent alcohol, Se Hun was on the verge of blacking out.

Hyun Woo, his complexion unchanged, once again placed a filled glass in front of Se Hun.

My Step-brother Is Obsessed With Me (Female-dominant)

A gentle female protagonist vs pitiful in the early stage, and a sick male protagonist in the later stage

Cheng Songer transmigrated into the body of a vicious cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name as her in a female-dominant novel.

In the original story, the cannon fodder female supporting character was inhumane, committing domestic violence, gambling excessively, being lustful, and even wanting to sell her stepbrother to a brothel for money.

As luck would have it, she just happened to transmigrate at this time.

Seeing Cheng Qingzhi biting his lip, enduring the tears in his eyes, looking pitiful, her heart softened.

She stuffed the money back into the Madam’s hand and reached out to him.

“Brother, come home with me.”
