The car slid smoothly into the parking lot of Kang Hyun and Yoon’s apartment.
“Tomorrow is the school’s opening ceremony, right?”
“Yes.”
“Then, you can go to the oriental clinic tomorrow.”
“Yes. I will.”
Yoon picked up her luggage from the back seat.
“Do you need help carrying it?”
“No. I can manage this much.”
Considering the amount of luggage, Kang Hyun thought for a moment about going up to the apartment. However, he didn’t trust himself to come back down right away if he did.
The prospect of spending more time with Yoon and potentially being late for his shooting loomed large. He had stepped out for a moment while preparing for the set and had to get back quickly.
“Our Teacher Seo, it’s good that you’re responsible and diligent, but still, go slowly. If you rush and fall, you might get hurt and then you won’t be able to do anything. That would be more detrimental. It’s not the end of the world if you don’t pass the exam this year, so don’t be too anxious.”
Kang Hyun said, caressing Yoon’s flushed cheek.
“Yes.”
“Shall I not go?”
If Yoon said not to go, he might have been able to give up everything, the shooting and all.
“Can I do that?”
Yoon looked at him with regretful eyes. His gruff face made her heart ache.
“I can’t, but I want to. It feels like if you hug me a bit, I can muster the strength to go.”
When Kang Hyun spread his arms, Yoon quickly fell into his embrace.
Although it was a bit uncomfortable because they were in a car and he couldn’t hold her as tightly as he wanted, it felt as if the fatigue from a day plagued by scandals disappeared while he held her.
People often said that there were those who become a source of vitality for others, and Yoon was truly that for him.
“Am I draining all your energy?”
Her frail body, which looked as though it wouldn’t amount to much, felt even more pitiable today.
“Hm?”
Yoon lifted her head as if asking what he was talking about, staring up at him in confusion. Finding her adorable once again, Kang Hyun gently placed a kiss on her forehead without a word.
The Yoon he had thought was frail and delicate had a surprisingly resolute side. Kang Hyun admired her for her diligent efforts to achieve her goals.
Then, he suddenly wondered if he had ever given his utmost in something, even to the point of spilling coffee. It seemed like he had never made an effort to achieve something with that much passion.
“Kang Hyun, I’m sorry.”
Suddenly, Yoon mumbled in his embrace.
“For what?”
Surprised by her sudden apology, Kang Hyun lifted her face to meet her eyes and asked.
“That is… I’m not used to… physical contact…”
Yoon thought that when he joked about treating her like a child, it wasn’t entirely a joke. He could be genuinely upset.
However, the truth was, Yoon felt like she kept stepping back not because she disliked him, but because he was so overwhelming, almost gigantic.
Moreover, his body was as hard as a rock, and it was slightly painful when he hugged her tightly.
In her childhood memories, Kang Hyun was certainly like a prince from a fairy tale, but the grownup Kang Hyun she faced for the first time felt like a threatening beast, almost too much to handle. Of course, that was not the case now.
“It’s not that I dislike you, Kang Hyun…”
Yoon knew that Kang Hyun wanted her, but she didn’t know how to respond to him.
However, truthfully, when Yoon held his hand or was in his embrace, her heart pounded with joy. When he winked at her, she felt her heart was about to explode.
“I understand. Well, it doesn’t seem so bad to continue as we are now. We agreed to get closer bit by bit, didn’t we?”
“Thank you.”
“Besides, you don’t have much time left until your exam. If you’re going to run hard towards your goal, a husband should not be whining, let alone pushing you.”
As if speaking to himself, Kang Hyun mumbled. The faint scent of baby lotion coming off her, as always, relaxed his tense body and mind.
“But don’t let your guard down. I can’t trust myself either.”
Enduring was not the same as being able to endure, so he could not promise anything. Especially not to Yoon.
“Go in now.”
“Yes.”
But Yoon hesitated for a moment, then suddenly pecked his cheek.
“Take care.”
With her cheeks blushing, Yoon hurriedly got out of the car.
Unable to take his eyes off Yoon as she walked away briskly, Kang Hyun blankly stared at her, still feeling the touch of her lips on his cheek.
“What is happening?”
A smile spread across Kang Hyun’s lips. That was when.
Yoon, who had been walking, turned her body towards him. Then, setting her luggage down, she waved her hand. All the while, smiling broadly.
“So you finally look back.”
Kang Hyun waved back at her. Yoon gestured for him to go ahead.
“To think I have to work leaving my wife, who is like a rabbit.”
Kang Hyun, in his frustration, ruffled his hair and started the car.
“I’m tortured.”
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village.

However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
