“Even though Master Yoon said he would take care of everything, it doesn’t mean you’re going emptyhanded. I know people like Master Yoon aren’t like that, but they can still look down on you later. This is the money I saved for your wedding. So it’s not my money.”
Mi Ran said this, turning her head and placing the bankbook into Eun Jae’s hand who was turned away.
“I don’t understand why you kept such money that you can’t take with you when you die so tightly. A single set of school uniform when I was in school, a common pair of maker sneakers. I’m still resentful that you couldn’t afford to buy them. As a mother, have you ever properly prepared breakfast, or have we ever dined out together on my birthday? You were always busy going to work as soon as you opened your eyes.”
I always had handmedown uniforms, and the 10,000 won sneakers I started wearing since middle school were even in my high school graduation photo.
“My daughter would have looked really pretty in a new uniform.”
Nevertheless, she was a good daughter who never complained. Thinking about it still hurt Mi Ran’s heart.
“She looks pretty even without new things.”
“Yes, our Eun Jae looks pretty in anything.”
Mi Ran reached out and held Eun Jae in her arms.
Looking back now, she wondered why she had been so frugal. She worked hard to be able to provide everything later, to let her do everything she wanted to do.
When did she grow up so quickly?
There was no such thing as later.
“Everyone lives like that. Don’t feel guilty about it.”
“I’m doing this to make mom feel at ease.”
Before she knew it, Mi Ran slowly stroked the back of her daughter who had grown up much taller than herself.
“Eun Jae, marriage life can’t always be happy. There are good times, and there are bad times. It’s the couple’s job to wisely navigate through it.”
At Mi Ran’s words, Eun Jae couldn’t respond.
It’s just a oneyearlong marriage.
“Our Eun Jae will do well. She’s diligent and smart, right?”
Accepting this marriage, it wasn’t something she hadn’t somewhat expected.
But facing it in reality, it stung her heart more than she had thought.
“There’s a call, Eun Jae.”
Mi Ran, having detached Eun Jae from her embrace, pointed to Eun Jae’s mobile phone placed next to the humidifier. Eun Jae, wiping the tears welled up in her eyes, picked up the mobile phone.
The culprit of this incident. It was Yoon Sun Woo.
“I’ll take the call and be back.”
With Mi Ran’s nod, Eun Jae, who had stepped into the corridor, pressed the call button.
“Yes…”
[Where are you?]
The man’s affectionate words flowed into her ear. The man was laughing, but Eun Jae could not smile.
Is he in a parking lot? The man’s voice echoed.
Holding the wedding invitation in her hand, Eun Jae recalled her mother’s brightly smiling face and shut her eyes tightly.
My mother is so happy without knowing anything, if she knows this is all fake…
Cutting off the continuing negative thoughts, Eun Jae slowly opened her eyes and cleared her mind.
“I’m at the hospital.”
[I’m also at the hospital. I’m about to wrap up and go in.]
You’re lying, you’re in the parking lot.
“You finished early.”
[It’s my day off. I have some papers to review.]
Even on his day off, he’s at the hospital. Your love for the hospital is tearful.
[Don’t go first, wait for me. Let’s have dinner outside. We have some things to discuss.]
Eun Jae quietly listened to the man’s words. The man kept talking even when Eun Jae did not answer.
[Finish up slowly and come down to the parking lot.]
“Yes.”
[I’ll be waiting.]
Listening to the man’s voice full of laughter, the corners of her mouth that had unknowingly lifted fell heavily as soon as the call ended.
“Sigh…”
Perhaps because of the incident with her mother, her complex emotions were not sorted out.
It was just when Eun Jae, who had let out a long sigh, was about to reenter the hospital room.
“Are you the guardian of Jeong Mi Ran?”
Eun Jae, who had raised her head at the woman’s voice, which resembled a refreshing spring scent, faced a slender female doctor standing in front of her.
It was a face she was seeing for the first time.
“Yes, why?”
“I’m Ju Hye Ji, a respiratory specialist. I’m Jeong Mi Ran’s attending physician.”
As she was being chased by men, the memory of the doctor who used to be the attending physician taking a maternity leave and having a new attending physician faintly resurfaced.
Ah, so she was that doctor.
Eun Jae, belatedly, bowed her head in greeting.
“Oh, hello, doctor.”
“Nice to meet you for the first time.”
At the words of the female doctor, Eun Jae awkwardly scratched her head.
“Yes, indeed…”
“Were you busy?”
Your mother was so sick. Although her words were vague, her eyes emitted a meaningful gaze. The question and tone sounded somewhat aggressive.
It must be my feeling. It’s true that I was negligent, regardless of work.
“Yes… I had some personal matters.”
“You’re Ji Eun Jae, correct?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Along with the answer, Hye Ji offered a handshake.

One-line summary: Forced to live stream romance with a top celebrity in a female-dominant world.
Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
①Male pregnancy (highlighted)
The female lead is five years older than the male lead, and the male lead is already an adult when he appears.
