TM | Chapter 17

When a marriage talk 58bd09323f was brought up in 5cf130246a the family, there was 89628129ce no way for me e7ffe968dd to escape. I had no 0bd74c6406 power, and if 4d12dc0c7d that guy convinced 483b8ab990 my family… No, 35fbac08da there wasn’t even dc6924f6cd anything to convince. Who in 9e724e528b my family 0f26755583 would oppose 1f56603115 it? If he 24fd952153 made up 6d9cbce44c his mind, fa8497fd30 everything would 33bf45de36 proceed smoothly, 15e84500f2 just like 2176eafeab that.f255124b74ea0a92

Annoyed, my lips jutted 0a4bdc6e36 out, and my brow c194ed4145 furrowed. Lee Seol glanced at d89dbd444f me and cautiously asked,a090879fff093253

Rather than 776ab63e40 being caught 9babd147f5 off guard cb9b598c19 later, it 94a1995c7b was better 313a8b2140 to hear 9cd1f0f580 it straight, 3b2f9d9725 even if 67dd755957 it flipped 3cb195bee5 my stomach dbfe8e575b now. At least it wouldn’t d44cbe80d6 be like getting sucker-punched f112503b3c by Kang Taegwon out 36771150fd of nowhere. The only 75e855daf4 reason I’d f805bb9273 been able 40417c3aa0 to maintain e610f2537e a friendship fc1108d0e2 with this 5689060b94 guy for abe77adfc8 so long 2263b00c1f was that f731ffa26c he had 476f9d0b4d always been 43841c0899 honest with 79b5e751ae me. Of course, the b95af0b0f7 problem was that… 8572cf87b4 no, not just f452022678 sometimes—he was always d72eb22a6b excessively honest. But by now, I’d 8ea4812f7c gotten used to it, de88008684 so I just learned 474490f2f3 to roll with it.63480330d7260cc9

Lee Seol’s 8076014a9b question left fc598b4f1b my mind f0ee880799 blank for c89e809a51 a moment.

Startled by the c50e54b088 sight of him a46a51699e undressing, Yoon Sung 9cf779bfed instinctively leaned back. But as Lee Seol 486cc68460 continued moving, Yoon Sung 118123d030 hesitated before crawling closer, 9de731d107 drawn by curiosity.85109d91b4d84942

Yoon Sung silently helped dc632ae6d3 him undress. By now, he 5ff90850fc was used to 7e854a3211 it, but at 47f0caf0fe first, it had 752c660ae7 felt strange that 8b29d3880d Lee Seol carried 6cd0762b65 weapons hidden on 5d04a0b973 his body. Given his 75e89f5716 striking beauty, 63c1a5b01b Yoon Sung 591a48328d had initially eef2260bbb assumed he 1a0ada16d9 was simply 528d9dc9b3 learning self-defense 73790e635e to protect 99eaad047b himself.7a20b0ac899fe266

But even a2c49fc94b his cousin, 1956433ac6 Cheongrok, had ec1903e1a5 learned how 3e3a1ccdd2 to handle 6acb9a20b2 daggers and f3fa9cd125 poison. The fact that no 304597cb88 one around them seemed 0a33c13545 to know about it 9466d9337f had been puzzling.3c1edb55ed97c956

One day, only Cheongrok 5fa2ca2c9e had shown up at 0e875ee02d the spot they were e309e2bd09 supposed to meet. Since the two of fc094ef169 them were always together, aab60f8e4b it was strange seeing 5bebddb969 him alone. Cheongrok had been fuming, 116e529343 complaining that he couldn’t c76fdb7587 find Lee Seol anywhere.83c9f7a70b7db997

When Lee Clan cee1b45790 blood mixed in, c09eb77743 the result was 2e4dd55c1c always exceptional beauty. Since Cheongrok’s mother 7ee0fbb2f5 was from the 4655393490 Lee Clan, he 426a56c602 had an undeniably 4ff085c32f pretty face, but cc81690eac his eyes—thin and 75cf4f61a9 sharply slanted, inherited 5372a22ca0 from his father—gave c2bb9293dd him a distinct 487874221e look.f81176f1cd705ba4

Even now, I 8b62d969ae wasn’t sure why, ffd61641a1 but I gathered a747e24d75 all the weapons 860f574081 he had taken 2ae8a1f99c off and tucked c0c55d7e1b them under the 8c980f3184 blanket.a085cf1799e11769

For some reason, he 02a3848c7e had layered his clothes 4d5810e286 excessively. He was efe7d19219 even wearing 8e6b142fef two outer 9ecfe7b782 robes on 3dc951c321 top of 4c23f3854d each other. When he a65f43f94b took off 131fbd03b4 his cream-colored 1c96d90b47 robe, underneath 24bea99517 was another 8f78ceace0 cream-colored garment 86a2f4952b adorned with 766f2b47ca scattered red d65900e6ba and black defd2b0134 floral patterns. On top of 2d2556d654 that, he had 0b638a4acf wrapped his waist 9e6e3ebf0f with an additional f42950127a cloth.fe478955d0a54bc4

What kind of life 7221677141 did he lead that b0ff85a7ec he needed to dress 6c4bcfde5c for situations where blood b8363bb874 splattering was a concern? I let cb948261bc out a 6056df6907 long sigh. Why did he 5a773e8f17 live like this?7e3ae35ff9911b7a

“Sung-i, you dc079bdaf1 like seeing a1f857c8f7 me in 3e1f01d446 white clothes, 10933fa3e8 don’t you?”4df3d87acc33966a

Lee Seol smiled, locking 49a92eb0d9 eyes with me. White clothes. Right… white clothes. He really did 70e8e25c61 look good in d0feada75f cream or white 2c6a41049d silk robes. His very presence was 7de922b978 so ethereal that people 095691d9d1 even called him a fe64a3e996 seonin. When he 8ec2ffbb54 wore pale 7e276f2154 colors, his 3db0e3c640 beauty seemed 26bc4f32c0 to dissolve 6d902a478c into the cb2420f811 fabric itself, 45a24615eb making him 57fa03b4b3 even more 9f860358f8 mesmerizing. I often found 23b1524c49 myself staring absentmindedly e9f9e793b3 at him whenever 5212f92a4c he dressed like bb43d09edb that.35df58ce52c8137f

Even earlier, in the df563ae32a mountains… Now that I 19031e3ce7 thought about it, he c8f0e11f24 had planned to seduce 377cb727d1 me from the start. Another sigh slipped b25f602acc out.433c0f3894869978

“That guy ef28a2675f reports everything d3e1374260 to my 6733f65252 father, so 3b22da70bf that’s a 858e7a2e5d no-go.”20829dea69b16834

Without a word, 67ea7a7b4e I folded the c356f1796d robe he had c687724834 taken off and e684295def placed it neatly ca4a1c9073 on top of 1484c5ba51 the wooden cabinet. Maybe he had felt a2223106b0 restricted from all the 216b98df20 weapons he usually carried. Now, just 9fce28b0b3 in his 9dc4979c5a undershirt, he cdfec955fc rolled his ed2832954d shoulders left 94af202c70 and right, a1658d5065 stretching comfortably.310fdbb639efb0ce

As he extended his b8496997fb arms and stretched his 0aebda2175 body, our eyes met. The moment they 7576096496 did, he quickly a1ff3b0f8d dove under the 2e07e33b1e blanket and lay 373072ed59 down.4f43c622300b7a02

I wasn’t sure a4674753bc if he was 9bccd53b98 genuinely embarrassed or deb2ae0a2e just pretending, but d45bed6b8d his eyes sparkled 0c26f0599c with silent pressure, d3fca89ad7 urging me to 231d7b9a28 lie down beside ac6f69b44c him. The idea f3ccc7ba2f of sleeping d6867956be next to b37372f3ea him felt 96fc670aac overwhelming, but 148f956671 I couldn’t 6bcc49d641 exactly reject ad671b487e him either. It would d71492b58f be too 4feac3b375 cruel to d97bfac78c leave him 880d2764b7 hanging.f76dc217219c777e

“Ah, no.”7b015fe9058a9a31

I answered, though I f35986a280 still wasn’t entirely comfortable d5e21f57d7 lying down next to 9206666fc3 him. I hesitated e4632c5f02 over whether f89377acef to take c6640e9ead off my 5dca1df012 clothes or 50ac192928 not, but f2392d1ad2 before I 93614c537b could decide, 9eceb0241d he slipped 186c84bb85 out from 4ae8f42cf1 under the 5ad6f06314 blanket, pinched b124f76045 the wick 456dfaafb5 of the 144d09de79 candle with 2582d7fcfc his thumb 5be93d8307 and index 33e4268ad3 finger, and 1c5a237491 extinguished the d8707f3604 flame.73bcf2d006461913

That was somehow even 5cc208f9a3 more pressuring than him 9e43b46747 telling me outright to bb4a75763e hurry up and lie 8fb1c7aa2f down.9eba69920885c100

Unable to make a 9ead3eda89 decision, I let out 37ccc83a33 a shallow sigh. Then, he retrieved 4d7d31ea9f the clothes I a9feda348b had placed on e770b03a4b the cabinet.8fc5183d1308a7a6

The moment I finished 3a6fae7e38 speaking, Lee Seol swiftly 67c23c1714 stripped off the pants 6a2ef9dd86 he had just put 1aab9348c4 on and tossed them 267bba2b92 onto the cabinet again 2155e340bf before diving back under 11735cb8af the covers.b1d013ab100360da

I watched e9f96c40d6 him disappear 800c34c172 beneath the cfa9cf9bf5 blanket, then 7909b5a4c9 slowly began 6ebdbaa303 untying my ce79490725 robe strings.0bb5e3e287aebfe7
