    On the first day of moving in, the meal preparation was conducted under the guidance of Song

    Joo-ah and Jeong Soo-ho. Seojung, who had no talent for cooking, was assigned the task of

    preparing the ingredients.

    He peeled and sliced the potatoes. With each movement of the knife, the sound of the cutting

    board echoed steadily. Seojung hoped that along with that sound, his long thoughts about Cha

    Yoon would also be cut off.

    However, just like how telling someone not to think of an elephant only makes them think of it more, the thoughts followed him endlessly the more he tried to cut them off.

    In his mind, the argument from earlier in the room replayed once again. He tightened his grip on

    the knife.

    What should he do? Having gone through denial and anger, Seojung reached the acceptance

    stage and focused on finding a ‘method.’ His feelings about Cha Yoon’s disastrous behavior had

    long been pushed aside.

    There was only one goal. To finish the filming without any problems and leave safely. To achieve

    Visit Lily on the Valley to read full chapter without gibberish

    that, Seojung had to deal with Cha Yoon. Not just any Cha Yoon, but the Cha Yoon from that

    chaotic time.

    Support us by visiting our official site at lilyonthevalley.com

     

    The best method would be to avoid Cha Yoon altogether. But living in the same house and being

    roommates made that impossible. Seojung had to think of a second-best option.

    “After all…”

    Is ignoring the answer? Seojung muttered as he recalled a video he had seen once titled ‘Puppy

    Excited to See Dad Back from a Business Trip!’ It was indeed strange to hope that a puppy would

    calm down while he was jumping around excitedly. Cha Yoon had quickly devolved from a

    disaster to just a ‘dog.’

    Just because Cha Yoon turned twenty-two didn’t mean he could act like he was twenty-four. Yes, let’s ignore him. Like an adult. Seojung made a decision that he thought was the second-best option.

    As he moved his hands with a more relaxed mind, someone spoke to him. It was Song Joo-ah.

    “Could you cut this for me too?”

    Joo-ah placed a carrot on the table. The person who had been Cha Yoon’s ex-lover. Knowing that

    fact made it even more awkward to face Song Joo-ah. But he couldn’t show it.

     

    Visit Lily on the Valley to read full chapter without gibberish

    “Yes, I will.”

     

    Visit Lily on the Valley to read full chapter without gibberish

    Seojung answered while slightly averting his gaze. As usual, a smile was on his lips. He lowered

    his head as if trying to focus on the task at hand again. The sound of the cutting board continued.

    Visit Lily on the Valley to read full chapter without gibberish

     

    But as always, things didn’t go as planned. Song Joo-ah stayed by his side until he finished

    cutting the last potato.

     

    Visit Lily on the Valley to read full chapter without gibberish

    Did she still have something to do? Seojung, who could no longer ignore her, lifted his head.

    Joo-ah’s gaze was directed at Seojung. There was a hint of curiosity in her eyes, which had

    seemed indifferent until now.

    “It’s pretty.”

    Song Joo-ah reached out her finger. Seojung’s gaze followed her finger. He saw the engagement

    ring that Cha Yoon had given him.

    Ah, Seojung opened his mouth. Only then did he realize why she had been sitting next to him.

    Along with that, he understood the meaning behind the gaze Cha Yoon had sent him a few hours

    earlier.

    What flooded in was shame. It felt as if she was asking if he still couldn’t forget Cha Yoon. So, did

    Seojung spoke nonchalantly, though he knew it sounded ridiculous. Who would wear a ring with

    However, contrary to his worries, Joo-ah didn’t ask further or press him.

    Joo-ah quickly wrapped up the conversation. The tension that had been stiffening Seojung’s

    shoulders eased. Just as Seojung turned to see Joo-ah off, he couldn’t help but freeze at the large

    figure standing behind him.

    There stood Cha Yoon, who had arrived he didn’t know when. Joo-ah seemed to have noticed Cha

    Yoon as well, raising an eyebrow. Just as she seemed to scan Cha Yoon, she spoke.

    “Are you here to use the sink? I’ll move aside.”

    Cha Yoon didn’t respond to the words directed at him. He just kept looking. At Ki Seo-jeong, who

    was standing behind him.

    It was a clear act of ignoring Joo-ah’s words, but she left without showing any sign of discomfort.

    Once Song Joo-ah disappeared, only silence remained between the two. Seojung swallowed

    hard.

    Did he hear everything? Did he know that he still had feelings left? Seojung’s mind raced.

    The first to move was Cha Yoon. He placed the bowl he had brought down into the sink. The loud

    noise of the bowls clashing was painfully loud. For a moment, Seojung’s gaze was drawn to the

    sink. Cha Yoon washed the dishes without a care. His movements were rough, as if he might

    break the dishes.

    For the best reading experience, visit lilyonthevalley.com

     

    Not only did he hear everything, but he also understood it all. Seojung realized that all his

    discomfort so obvious.

    Seojung bit his lip and picked up a carrot. It was already done. Regretting it wouldn’t change

    Let’s just get back to work. Seojung steadied his mind and began chopping again. 

    How much time passed like that? From the sink, the sound of dishes being thrown could be heard. He wanted to shout for Cha Yoon to take it easy, but Seojung held back.

    The things he did to survive left traces that made up Seojung, and he became Seojung himself.

    Perhaps that’s why. Even with the compliments directed at him, Seojung didn’t feel particularly happy. He simply thought that he would have to try a little harder to meet these people’s

    The shape of the carrot, covered in yellow curry, was indeed a bit perplexing, just as Cha Yoon had  said. But whose fault was that? It was because of Cha Yoon, who had been protesting beside him. Yet, Cha Yoon was only blaming Seojung, which was absurd.

    Min Ha stammered, “Huh? Ah, um, that…” Seojung, sitting right next to her, watched as the color
