When Hojeong saw the news that Yoon had regained consciousness, she immediately thought of her grandparents before Yoon.
“Then, the person who was with my grandmother at that time was you, Teacher?”
Kanghyun, in response to Yoon’s words, spoke affectionately to Hojeong.
“Oh, yes.”
“In many ways, thank you very much.”
Kanghyun politely nodded to Hojeong again.
“No, what did I do?”
Hojeong clapped her hands.
“My grandmother relied on you a lot. She said she was really thankful. I’d like to treat you to a meal next time if it’s okay, as a token of my gratitude.”
“A meal? Yes?”
Surprised, Hojeong’s eyes widened, and Yoon, understanding Hojeong’s feelings, smiled gently.
“Yes, let’s have a meal together, Teacher.”
Kanghyun, who was known for not taking pictures, made an exception for Hojeong that day.
Taking pictures with Kanghyun and even shaking hands, Hojeong, who took numerous photos due to Kanghyun’s stunning presence, was already mentally shattered, unable to hear people envying her for having witnessed the spectacle.
The ten years of fandom for Kanghyun had returned as the ultimate reward.
A little later, Yoon and Kanghyun entered the auditorium. A large banner reading ‘Welcome, National Teacher Seo Yoon’ was hung, making Yoon’s face blush with embarrassment.
Yoon shook hands shyly in response to the cheers from students who had spotted Kanghyun.
“Cha Kanghyun is our teacher’s husband?”
“What’s going on with Cha Kanghyun and our teacher’s husband?”
“Is he our lord?”
The students laughed and chattered.
“But our teacher doesn’t lose to our lord in any way.”
“Wow! Teacher, you’re so pretty.”
Shyly, Yoon waved her hand in response to the students’ cheers. It was heartwarming to see her students after a long time, almost bringing tears to her eyes.
“Welcome.”
The head teacher for the 2nd grade rushed forward to greet the two.
“Hello.”
Yoon bowed, but Kanghyun ignored him. The head teacher was about to greet Kanghyun again when he saw Cheol-yeong’s fierce face. Sensing the atmosphere, he tactfully stepped back.
“Mr. Kanghyun. Why aren’t you responding to greetings? It’s embarrassing for the head teacher.”
Yoon whispered to Kanghyun, looking at the head teacher.
“What’s with that guy?”
“To be honest, he insulted my grandmother at the hospital. I want to smack him, but I’m holding back. Don’t say anything.”
“To my grandmother?”
“Yes.”
Even when looking at him again, Kanghyun still wanted to smack him. He deliberately turned away from the head teacher.
Seeing Kanghyun ignoring the head teacher, the students who witnessed it each made a comment.
“Takoyaki’s face turned red.”
“Yeah. Cha Kanghyun also knows Takoyaki’s personality.”
“Our teacher knows how to read people!”
“But why is the head teacher Takoyaki?”
A student who transferred not long ago asked.
“Because of his personality. Maybe because he makes you want to stab him with a fork.”
The head teacher, who had a perfect strong-weak-weak-strong personality, had a terrible reputation even among the students.
Once Yoon and Kanghyun took their seats, the main event began.
“Is it difficult?”
“I’m okay.”
Kanghyun held Yoon’s hand and put a ring on her finger, and Yoon also smiled at him. The charming scene of the two drew everyone’s attention.
At that moment, the teacher who was observing the gathering called out Yoon’s name.
Yoon slowly ascended the stage, and Kanghyun looked at her with satisfaction.
The representatives of parents and students presented the award together. When Yoon accepted the award, the students called her Teacher Seoyoon, and some students even whistled.
As Yoon looked at the faces of the students she had taught, she became emotional.
‘Korean, Seoyoon. She’s pretty. Her figure is amazing!’
‘Next time, I want to be born as Korean. Oh! Surprise, teacher, hahaha.’
‘Can you add “teacher” after my name too? No matter what, what’s so great about Korean?’
Yoon deliberately laughed more at the kids who were embarrassed.
“Teacher, can you secretly listen?”
“Teachers have ears too.”
“But it’s a compliment, teacher. You’re really so pretty.”
“It’s too late.”
“Hey, just look once. But why is your skin so good? Do you go to a dermatologist?”
“It’s natural.”
“Oh! Teacher, just now, Jeesu-nim was not there… hahaha.”
Yoon’s eyes turned red.
As a novice teacher, she didn’t know much and struggled at first, feeling sorry for not teaching well.
However, she smiled brightly, greeted people, and encouraged her students to fight when they were discouraged.
At that moment, she made eye contact with Minjeong sitting in the front row. Minjeong, with a brighter smile than anyone else, clapped for her.
Like other kids, Minjeong also raised her thumb to Yoon, and Yoon, who had regained her bright appearance, smiled brightly at Minjeong.
Yoon found it difficult to stand in front of people, but today was different. The cheers and applause from her students made her heart swell.
“Kids, thank you.”
Even though her connection with Sura High School was ending today, the cheers and applause from her first students would be unforgettable for a lifetime.
After briefly expressing her thoughts, Yoon returned to her seat with teary eyes. Kanghyun took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears, and this sight led to another round of cheers.
“Why are you crying?”
“I don’t know.”
Yoon, who had always stepped back inconspicuously, felt the warmth of people’s attention for the first time.
“Just because.”
“Because?”
“Yes.”
Kanghyun warmly embraced Yoon’s shoulders. Kanghyun thought that the title of “National Teacher” suited Yoon well.
The cheers and applause from the students were genuine. Because Yoon had sincerely approached them, this was possible. Yoon was an excellent teacher.
“Our Yoon looks cool today!”
Kanghyun winked at her. Yoon blushed, and Kanghyun gently patted her back.
Young-hoon watched the affectionate couple from a corner of the auditorium. Young-hoon could only feel bitter.
From his perspective, Kanghyun and he were incomparable. What else did Cha Kanghyun need as an adjective? Leaving everything aside, even in appearance, he was already incomparable to him.
He was simply radiant. He seemed to understand what it meant to be dazzling. Yoon, standing next to such a man, was the same.
Kanghyun did not take his eyes off Yoon, as if she were a precious treasure.
‘You and I have lived in different environments, so it might be difficult to get married. So, let’s break up.’
Now that he thought about it, Yoon had never brought up marriage. She had harshly declared a breakup, saying that there was a difference in levels between them.
Young-hoon’s gaze gradually lowered.
His face, and even his ears, had suddenly turned red. If there were a mouse hole, he would have wanted to go in and not come out.
Seeing Young-hoon in such a state, Seung-yeop, who had been shaking his head, wondering why he was like that, turned his gaze back to Yoon.
The more he looked, the more he thought it was a pity. Then, his gaze collided with Kanghyun, who was glaring at him.
“Why are you staring at me like that?”
As if he knew that Young-hoon had a crush on Yoon.
Kanghyun’s gaze was too fierce, and Seung-yeop couldn’t handle it anymore, so he averted his gaze.
When Seung-yeop avoided his gaze, Kanghyun, who was greatly satisfied, grinned confidently.
“Now we definitely know who our Yoon is, right? Well, by now, there’s probably no one in South Korea who doesn’t know. It worked out well!”
Kanghyun suddenly burst into hearty laughter, and due to that, the principal, who was delivering a speech, was startled and hastily concluded the congratulatory remarks.
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.”
