Indescribable and heavy emotions surrounded Sajun.
Looking down at the small back of her head in his arms, emotions welled up, and something warm kept flowing.
Inside his chest, something kept overflowing, but his mind was empty, and no words came to mind.
No, actually, he wanted to tell her that he loved her. But he couldn’t.
Because he was afraid Min Taehui might leave like a fairy who returned her wings when he said he loved her.
So, this time, he had to endure it again.
Holding the slender Taehui tightly in his arms, Sajun meant that he would only do this much.
“Dinner.”
Only then did Taehui, who had lifted her face from Sajun’s embrace, smile brightly.
“Do you know what it feels like to be held by you? The leather and the back leather stick together, so the pressure on the legs is released.”
It wasn’t because something happened; it was because her stomach was empty and her legs were relaxed, so she was held.
Believe me when I say this. I don’t know you that well.
There were many things he wanted to say, but he decided not to say them. Because Min Taehui, who would answer, wasn’t someone he knew.
Although bitter inside, I am defeated by you again like this.
“What do you want to eat?”
Taehui, who had completely left Sajun’s arms and entered, said.
“I want to eat and drink.”
Others might not understand what she said.
But it had been 13 years of being together.
Eating side dishes while drinking would mean that.
Sajun, who understood what Taehui had said, smiled slyly and closed the door.
Naturally, Taehui, who had entered Sajun’s dressing room, came out with one of Sajun’s shirts.
“I want to shower first. Oh, and order salmon gravlax.”
“Anything else?”
“Well, since there’s plenty of alcohol here, how about fruit snacks?”
Even though she said the leather and back leather stuck together, it was a lie.
Since it was food that didn’t require cooking, the room service arrived faster than Taehui’s shower time.
Taehui, who came out fresh after a shower, wore only Sajun’s shirt.
The shirt that came down to mid-thigh made it look like she was wearing a mini dress.
The generous size highlighted Taehui’s soft and slender body, and the well-balanced lines extending under the shirt were dizzying.
As dizzying as the smooth texture of the skin as enchanting as the dizzying lines rose in his mind, making his head warm.
Why didn’t she wear slippers again?
The refreshing scent of Min Taehui’s bare feet, as beautiful as her face, approaching casually, made Sajun’s mind dizzy.
Ignoring his desire to take her to bed right now, Sajun calmly set up the food brought by room service on the table.
He had slept well last night, and now he would feed her well, and then, after that, to those who endure, blessings will come.
Unaware of Sajun’s cunning speed, Taehui was surprised by the amount of salmon more than the salad.
Then, when she saw the steaming corn soup next to the salad plate, she laughed lightly.
“Good sense, Kang Sajun.”
“You need to warm up the empty stomach to receive food well.”
That’s why I omitted the talk about gaining strength and stamina.
Taehui, sitting on the soft sofa, crossed her slender legs.
Did the view alone get warmer? Now, my mouth and insides are burning.
Sajun, trying to lift his gaze that was going under the slightly open shirt, put an ice cube in his mouth and chewed it.
Watching Sajun chew three ice cubes in a row, Taehui asked.
“You said it warms up the empty stomach?”
“I already had dinner. And you need to cool your insides to enjoy the alcohol.”
Unaware of the speed of others who are going, Taehui replied that she didn’t know and started eating salad.
After thoroughly enjoying a large amount of salmon, she headed to the whiskey display.
With a careful face, she finally chose Glenfiddich 30 Year Old.
While Taehui ran to the bathroom to brush her teeth, Sajun set up the liquor.
Sajun was a whiskey person, but Taehui preferred soju.
So, when Taehui, who was pouring ice into the glass for whiskey, came out after brushing her teeth, she frowned.
“Single malt should be drunk straight.”
“It’ll go smoothly in no time.”
“Drinking requires mental strength, and I’m mentally strong, you know?”
“Don’t talk so loudly.”
At Sajun’s words, Taehui narrowed her eyes.
“What is that supposed to mean? Wrinkling in front of a silkworm? Shouldn’t you say nice things when it’s good?”
It was not a scary threat, but eventually, Sajun took out the ice and put it back in the ice bucket.
It was just a feeling of wanting to accommodate and yield anything.
As long as she did that in front of me, it was fine even if she got drunk.
“Sajun, are you worried that I might get drunk?”
Taehui looked at her glass and laughed.
As the worrying feeling seeped in, less than a third of the glass was filled in Taehui’s glass.
Sajun, who smiled awkwardly, poured more alcohol into the glass.
“Shall we try a new way of drinking? There’s a way to drink less.”
Taehui, who brought her glass to Sajun’s lips, smiled beautifully as if her eyes were stinging.
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.
