“Wow, really…”
At Hye Yoon’s unexpected words, Ji Ho could only be flabbergasted. Especially the sincere words packed full at the very end.
‘But I really don’t care! I want to get along with you, Ji Ho, just as we are now.’
Hye Yoon, who had been quietly watching Ji Ho’s dumbfounded expression, felt that something had gone wrong. Rolling her eyes around, she seemed to roughly figure out the situation. As if thinking, ‘I’ve completely barked up the wrong tree.’
“Um… I, you see. Not just my thoughts… but I read the atmosphere well too.”
Hye Yoon’s voice, which could only be heard if one leaned in closely, gradually became more plaintive. Ji Ho watched Hye Yoon struggling to rectify her mistake. He watched her, with a hammer as big as her body, fervently demolishing the world she had built overnight in her little head.
“So, how did you read this atmosphere?”
He felt he was out of his mind, wanting to watch her struggling face trying to solve the situation no matter what.
“I read it as… I’ve greatly misunderstood.”
“Ha, I can’t believe it.”
Seeing the childlike woman showing remorse with such a stiff adultlike tone, he couldn’t help but laugh. He had no clue how to control her imagination.
“Oh, you both look in a good mood today?”
Then, Min Woo’s booming voice echoed in the kitchen set. He gave Ji Ho a quick glance and surveyed the two of them. Ji Ho didn’t need an explanation, and even Hye Yoon, who stood rigidly, looked different from yesterday.
“Ji Ho, we finished too late yesterday. I’m really sorry. I’ll make sure to keep the time from now on.”
“It was late because I didn’t go at once and caused the NG.”
“Oh, don’t be so humble. You barely slept, right?”
In fact, the two were virtually meeting again just a few hours later. Adding the preparation time for filming, Min Woo guessed that Ji Ho’s fatigue must have reached its peak. Of course, he also thought so as soon as he saw his face.
The question of how he could smile so brightly despite being tired. But he must have slept at least 4 hours, generously estimated.
“I’m okay.”
His voice, filled with a hint of laughter, flowed into Min Woo’s and Hye Yoon’s ears. And the moment Hye Yoon tried to look at him, attracted by his pleasant voice, a familiar large hand rested on her head.
“I woke up fully because of Hye Yoon.”
Ji Ho naturally stroked Hye Yoon’s head with a surprising expression. His voice, her name sounding special, and the warm touch. The startled Hye Yoon tightly held onto her school uniform skirt.
As Min Woo’s eyes suspiciously swept over them, she put more strength into her fist.
“Wow, what’s this really? In fact, I thought you two had a fight yesterday. I nearly misunderstood.”
Ji Ho slowly withdrew his stroking hand into his trouser pocket and lowered his eyes to Hye Yoon. As if passing the response to Min Woo’s subtle question to her. Hye Yoon opened her shy mouth carefully as she saw his playful eyes.
“Eh… We didn’t fight.”
Although her reply was to Min Woo, those who were still locking eyes with each other were Ji Ho and Hye Yoon. So Min Woo scanned them intently without paying attention to anyone.
Apparently not satisfied with just standing and watching, he could see Ji Ho tilting his head slowly towards her. At this point, it was doubtful whether the ensuing answer was really meant for him.
“That’s right. Always fighting alone.”
“Ah…”
“But it seems like she always comes back winning… It’s quite cute.”
The tender gaze that caressed her body. Ji Ho’s affection for her was clearly visible even to an outsider. A man’s love that easily suppressed his will to tease her. Min Woo had lost his spirits.
“I suddenly feel depressed…… I’ll go.”
“No, senior. It’s not like that.”
“I was feeling down already yesterday, and seeing the trailer of Ji Ho’s new film poured oil on the fire. I worried needlessly.”
Min Woo mumbled to himself while he was trudging away. Although he was turning around in annoyance, he felt relieved in his heart. If the relationship between the main actors was good, the atmosphere on the set would improve.
A mix of relief and envy crossed his face.
The Villainous Demon Lord Laid an Egg for Her (Female-Dominated)
Several months after transmigrating into a book, Yu Wu found herself facing the demon lord Li You, who could no longer conceal his dragon horns. With one hand on her aching waist and the other gripping a sharp sword, she stared at him.
The demon lord’s eyes were red with fury:
“This is all your doing! Today, I won’t rest until I kill you!”
Yu Wu rubbed her temples. Putting aside the taboo against bloodshed during pregnancy, wasn’t it this very man who willingly walked into her trap that day?!
Warnings:
- Male pregnancy.
- Height ratios are set to mirror typical male-female height proportions.
- Characters include a foot-loving demon lord and an eldest daughter from an immortal family’s concubine lineage.
