Unlike herself, who grew up twisted like a child of darkness even in an overly abundant environment, Min Tae-hee was shining so brightly that her eyes seemed to dazzle.
Perhaps softened by the kiss, those words penetrated deep into Sa-jun’s brain and chest.
“Think about it. I grew up so well with just my mom’s love, so how much better will our baby grow if he also receives dad’s love? Just imagining it is heartwarming, isn’t it?”
It’s unimaginable, so I don’t know if it’s heartwarming.
Nevertheless, with a somewhat softened heart, Sa-jun decided to concede.
Whether he was persuaded by Tae-hee’s words inwardly or persuaded by the recent kiss, he muttered, “Then, at night, I’ll take care of him.”
“No, I’ll do it. If it’s really hard, you can ask Mom for help.”
Anyway, he won’t listen to what I say.
Even if Sa-jun pressured her with his gaze, Min Tae-hee, who thought of Sa-jun as the most approachable person in the world, didn’t blink an eye.
Yeah, how could I beat you?
“Okay, then when you sleep well, I’ll take care of it.”
Despite reluctantly answering, Sa-jun already felt his chest tightening.
But there was no choice.
After carrying a baby in her belly for ten months and going through a difficult childbirth, Tae-hee, who was managing both childcare and academics without sleeping, not pretending to know about it was a beastly act.
Rather than seeing Tae-hee collapse, witnessing her body shrinking more than before, and, most importantly, her slow recovery causing the postponement of the first night of their honeymoon, Sa-jun, who did nothing during pregnancy and childbirth, had abundant stamina to make up for it.
“Kang Sa-jun, can you really do it?”
Tae-hee looked at Sa-jun with eyes mixed with astonishment and suspicion.
“What can’t I do?”
“It’s not about what you can’t do. It’s about not having any interest in the baby.”
“I’m interested.”
He confidently replied.
It wasn’t that Sa-jun had no interest in his son; it was just that Tae-hee had excessive interest.
“Ask your mother if you don’t know, and I’ll get help for a day or two. So don’t worry and get a good rest.”
Still, when Tae-hee didn’t withdraw her eyes of doubt, Sa-jun reluctantly responded, “I’ll spend time with our baby at night, just accumulate some.”
“You have to go to work. It must be tiring…”
Tae-hee’s expression blurred at the end of her words.
Yes, she probably wanted this answer.
Thinking that if Min Tae-hee was satisfied, Sa-jun mumbled as if to say, “Listen.”
“Excessive stamina is useless.”
Knowing the meaning of those words, Tae-hee blushed.
But that was only for a moment. In Sa-jun’s arms, Tae-hee nestled closely.
Although the soft touch wasn’t as mellow as before, she still liked being in her man’s arms.
Sa-jun, who soaked his hands into her clothes, didn’t even know this was in his dreams.
All of this was Min Tae-hee’s elaborate plan.
“Thank you, Kang Sa-jun.”
Whispering softly in his ear, Tae-hee hugged Sa-jun’s neck again.
Tae-hee had anticipated everything from start to finish.
Even Sa-jun’s intention not to get involved in childcare and to entrust the baby to a sitter. If he said he would personally take care of the baby until dawn, Sa-jun would reluctantly step forward, as if being pushed from behind, declaring that he would do it.
Her nonchalance and coldness were disappointing, but what could she do?
She had fallen in love with such a man from the beginning and had married him, even giving birth to a child. She had to somehow tear him apart and live together.
If she couldn’t feel affection for the baby because she didn’t give birth to him herself, she had to spend time together to develop that affection.
Even so, it was her bloodline, so she couldn’t help but feel affection.
Even though he seemed indifferent, Kang Sa-jun, who would ultimately fulfill his responsibilities, made Min Tae-hee firmly believe that he would manage well even if the start was awkward, and in the end, he would follow her wishes.
So, the operation was a success.
Quietly entrusting her body to Sa-jun, Tae-hee secretly smiled.
One month later.
Having finished exercising and getting ready for work, Sa-jun arrived at his son’s room.
Checking his wristwatch, it was 7 a.m.
An hour and a half ago, the son had fallen asleep after being fed formula to his heart’s content, looking plump.
Seeing him sleep so well, it should be enough, but strangely, Sa-jun’s feet didn’t move.
With his arms up and legs down, sleeping in a stretched-out posture like a frog might look comical but also quite cute.
The baby, who had monopolized the love of the adults in the house at once, now nearing two months, showed off his charm.
According to the adults, his eyes as white as snow, shiny black pupils like pebbles, resembled Sa-jun, and his facial features resembled Tae-hee.
Hearing it repeatedly made it seem true and not true at the same time.
Sa-jun lightly touched the baby’s cheek with his fingertips.
Even though it had been only two months, the baby, who frowned as if finding it annoying to open his eyes, looked quite adorable.
After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
