Yoon got up from her seat.
‘First, let’s wash.’
There was no need to worry about something that hadn’t happened yet.
‘For now, like he said, we’re getting to know each other a little bit.’
After drying her hair, Yoon gathered her books, laptop, and tablet, and went out to the living room. She stood in front of the study, took a deep breath, and knocked.
“Come in.”
Yoon opened the door and went in. It was her first time in the study, and as expected, it was very spacious. All the rooms in the house seemed to be spacious.
There was a huge desk, about twice the size of her own, and a bookshelf that filled one wall. Across from the bookshelf was a sofa, and Kang Hyun was lying there, reading a script.
“Study at the desk. I’ll be here.”
Perhaps because he had just showered, his hair was still wet, and he was dressed in the shorts and shortsleeved shirt he always wore at home.
Yoon placed her books, laptop, and tablet on the intimidatingly large desk. There was an expensive allinone computer on his desk.
“What’s with that laptop? Does it work?”
Kang Hyun asked upon seeing Yoon’s old laptop.
“Yes, it works fine.”
It was a secondhand laptop she had purchased with the money she earned from a beverage advertisement parttime job in her first year of college. It was a valuable item that had been with her from her college days until now.
“Just use that computer.”
“Okay.”
Yoon turned on the computer. It was an expensive computer, so she was careful. Yoon took out her wireless earphones, put them on, and took a quick glance at Kang Hyun.
When their eyes met, she quickly turned her gaze back to the computer screen.
“Why are you so cautious?”
As expected, Kang Hyun’s voice came flying in.
“I’m not being cautious.”
Yoon simply felt uncomfortable in his study. The desk, like the Chairman’s, exuded an intimidating presence, and so did the chair.
‘I could have just done this in my room.’
The bookshelf was also magnificent, making it feel like she had entered the study of a foreign mansion from a movie.
However, as soon as the lecture started, Yoon began to concentrate on listening, and Kang Hyun quietly watched her studying.
‘This desk is too dreary.’
Seeing Yoon sitting at the large, dark desk made her look somewhat pitiful. She looked as if she were swallowed up by the giant desk.
‘How dare the desk.’
Kang Hyun thought that he should redo the study’s interior. In clean white or beige tones that would suit Yoon.
At that moment, Yoon, who was watching the lecture, jotted down something on her tablet.
Tap, tap, tap, tap.
Her small hand busily moved across the tablet. She also wrote something in the book.
Swish, swish. Scribble, scribble.
In the quiet study, the small sounds that Yoon created floated about.
Listening to those sounds, Kang Hyun closed his eyes.
Tap, tap, swish, swish, scribble, scribble.
The sounds she created sounded like a lullaby.
Yoon was about to click on the next lecture when she took a quick glance at Kang Hyun, only to find him asleep. The script had fallen from his hand and was rolling on the floor.
‘Huh?’
Worried that he might wake up, Yoon quietly got up.
‘Should I tell him to go sleep in his room? Oh, he said he had to leave again later. That must be hard.’
She hesitated to wake him up as he seemed to be deeply asleep. He was a person suffering from insomnia, so she thought it would be better to let him sleep a little more.
‘Won’t he be cold?’
Looking for the air conditioner remote, she saw the dressing room through the open door behind the desk and went in.
The study, dressing room, and master bedroom were connected. Yoon found Kang Hyun’s cardigan and brought it out.
She cautiously approached him, covered him with the cardigan, and was about to return to her seat when she took a closer look at his face.
‘He’s lost a lot of weight.’
Perhaps it was because of consecutive days of strenuous shooting and not getting proper sleep, his face had become sharper.
‘But he’s still handsome.’
Looking at him sleeping, with his straight forehead, long nose, and lips prettier than a woman’s, it somehow didn’t feel real. She was able to see him this close, someone she had only seen in movies.
Yoon pulled up the cardigan further and tried to get up.
Thud!
“Where are you going?”
Kang Hyun’s thick arm wrapped around her waist. At the same time, her body was pulled and landed on top of his.
“Ah……”
“I was trying not to disturb you while you were studying.”
Kang Hyun lifted her body, and in an instant, their positions switched.
“Ka… Kang Hyun, um…”
Yoon pushed his chest, but Kang Hyun didn’t budge.
“I won’t hurt you.”
Kang Hyun softly held her cheek in his hand. Then, with his thumb, he gently stroked her lips, seeking her permission.
“Seo Yoon.”
Finally, when Yoon nodded slightly, he changed his angle and came down. The breath of the two mingled together. It was a soft and sweet kiss.
He savored her lips, moving around in her mouth as he changed angles.
Thump, thump, thump, thump!
The hearts of the two people touching each other pounded fiercely. Yoon was completely trapped between the sofa and Kang Hyun’s bulky body.
Her breath quickened due to the occupied mouth and the weight he was pressing down. When she seemed uncomfortable, Kang Hyun slowly pulled away from her lips.
“Ha……”
Yoon gasped for breath. Kang Hyun caressed her face.
“Are you okay?”
Kang Hyun’s husky voice resonated softly. Their gazes met. His eyes, looking at her, were so warm that Yoon felt overwhelmed.
His eyes were speaking. How much he cared for her, how much he desperately wanted her.
‘I like Kang Hyun.’
Yoon no longer wanted to resist her feelings towards Kang Hyun. He was a man she desired. She, too, wanted to be greedy for once. She didn’t want to run away in fear of getting hurt.
“Yes. ……I’m okay.”
When Yoon smiled a smile that resembled him, Kang Hyun gently kissed her forehead.
“Shall we go further?”
Kang Hyun’s smooth hand started to move down from her lips, over her chin, down her neck, gradually going lower.

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.”
