“Does the food suit your taste?”
Seo Jeong, who had made eye contact with Kang Hyun, approached with a gentle smile.
“Yes.”
In contrast, there was no trace of a smile on Kang Hyun’s face. Then Seo Jeong, looking awkward, slowly lowered the corners of her mouth.
Kang Hyun’s gaze now turned to Yoo Jin, who was sitting next to Seo Jeong. He had no memory of Yoo Jin as he didn’t frequent this house.
However, she was definitely imprinted in his recent memory. Just like at the engagement ceremony, Yoo Jin had been giggling like a madwoman whenever she looked at him today.
Even when he glared at her, she didn’t care. She was almost absurdly unfazed.
But now, she wasn’t looking at him, but at Yoon. To be precise, it was more like glaring than simply looking. It was as if she wanted to kill her.
Kang Hyun now looked at Yoon. She was hanging her head low.
‘One is glaring viciously, and the other is keeping her head down.’
Thud!
Kang Hyun put down his chopsticks on the table with a loud noise.
“It’s like being skewered.”
Kang Hyun opened his mouth. Then, all the eyes of the people sitting at the table turned to Kang Hyun.
“Why are you staring like that while we’re eating?”
Kang Hyun coldly stared at Yoo Jin and muttered in a low voice. His voice sounded so ominous that Yoo Jin flinched.
Ji Man, who had been watching Yoo Jin, made a face and winked at Seo Jeong. Seo Jeong gave a hint to Hyun Jin. Hyun Jin sighed and rose from her seat.
“Yoo Jin has been saying she’s not feeling well since earlier. I told her she didn’t have to force herself to come out like this. Oh dear, you’re burning up! This won’t do, let’s go inside.”
Hyun Jin touched Yoo Jin’s forehead, then dramatically exclaimed in surprise and began to pull her arm.
“I don’t want to!”
Yoo Jin shook off Hyun Jin’s arm, causing Kyung Jin to jump up from her seat as well.
“Oh my, she really has a high fever. We need to give her some fever medicine, and if that doesn’t work, we’ll have to call Dr. Kim.”
Hyun Jin and Kyung Jin managed to help Yoo Jin stand up.
“That’s right, Yoo Jin overexerted herself when she wasn’t feeling well. You’ve fulfilled your obligation by being here this much, so go inside and rest.”
Ji Man spoke gently to Yoo Jin. However, his gaze was fierce enough to suggest that he might throw his rice bowl at any moment.
At least her father Ji Man was scary enough that Yoo Jin obediently followed her sisters out of the dining room. Even as she left, however, she didn’t stop glaring at Yoon.
‘What the heck!’
Kang Hyun, who was watching Yoo Jin being dragged out, turned to look at Yoon, who was sitting next to him. Yoon was sitting there blankly, holding her spoon.
‘Was she intimidated by these pathetic people?’
When Kang Hyun took her hand, Yoon turned to look at him. Yoon looked a little better than before.
After Yoo Jin left and the room quieted down, Ji Man spoke.
“I’m sorry that this commotion happened during dinner. But please understand, she’s sick.”
Ji Man sighed and said.
“She looked the healthiest here, so it’s surprising to hear she’s sick. But appearances can be deceiving, right?”
Kang Hyun stared intently at Seo Jeong as he spoke.
‘What? What’s with this guy’s confidence? He’s got no shame. Somehow, just his gaze is enough to upset me. I can see why the vixen Cha Min Suk was so infatuated.’
Seo Jeong, who had failed to keep a poker face, grumbled inwardly.
“After the meal, let’s move to the study.”
As Ji Man looked displeasedly at the grumbling Seo Jeong, his eyes met with Kang Hyun’s, and he immediately smiled brightly and spoke.
Kang Hyun was assessing Yoon’s complexion. Although she seemed better than when they first arrived at the house, she still looked tense.
‘Seo Yoon seems to really hate being in this house.’
Kang Hyun purposefully rolled up his sleeves to sneak a peek at his watch, then opened his mouth.
“I apologize, but I have a busy schedule and it will be difficult for me. Once my work is somewhat finished, I will visit again.”
Kang Hyun politely declined.
“I see. It was enough that you took the time to come here during your busy schedule.”
Kang Hyun immediately took Yoon’s hand and left the dining room.
“We should get going.”
Yoon was tightly holding his hand, so Kang Hyun had no choice but to greet Ji Man while holding her hand.
“Yes, you should go now.”
Ji Man gestured for them to leave with a kind face.
Kang Hyun merely nodded to Seo Jeong and then turned his body. His bodyguards and Ji Man’s sonsinlaw followed him. As Seo Jeong watched Kang Hyun and Yoon leave, she clicked her tongue.
“He just nods his head and leaves. How did Chairman Cha educate his child?”
“How about you educate your child properly! I told you to keep Yoo Jin from leaving her room!”
Once everyone had left, Ji Man yelled at Seo Jeong.
“My ears are going to fall off. Do you think she listens? And aren’t you a parent too? Are you expecting me to do all the educating?”
Seo Jeong shouted back without backing down.
“Sigh, I need to get her admitted to a hospital or something.”

The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
