Chapter 247.2
“You want me to put on clothes? It’s a rare relaxing weekend morning, and we’re newlyweds!”
“….”
“Is that really all you want me to do?” He asked her, bewildered.
“Um… well…”
As Seoryeong hesitated, Lee Wooshin’s face hardened as if he had been struck. His gaze turned cold in an instant.
“No matter how much of a househusband I am, telling your husband to put on clothes… especially telling me to do it quickly. That’s a bit too much. This is sufficient grounds for a strike.”
“….”
“Treating me like this! Sorry, but I’m not putting on any clothes.”
Lee Wooshin crossed his stiff-looking arms and began to resist. Moreover, he was nitpicking over trivial matters.
“To be honest, it’s true that Han Seoryeong has been neglecting me lately.”
“Who’s doing this for their own benefit? I’m just worried you might be cold! You don’t look well either!”
“Warming up doesn’t necessarily mean just putting on a piece of cloth, does it?”
“….”
Seoryeong stood there, stunned. So this is it… Her gaze slowly drifted down. Lee Wooshin, without a hint of embarrassment, looked sideways haughtily.
Seoryeong let out a hollow laugh as she approached. Seriously, he had a great time last night, so what’s this about?
‘If someone saw this, they’d think I’ve been neglecting my husband for months…’
“Don’t be ridiculous. The things I want to do, you always interfere with, no matter what.”
At that, he flinched, visibly shaking his shoulders. He looked as if he had been caught off guard.
“You’re just going to say no again anyway.”
Seoryeong’s palm touched the front of his shirt, covered by the towel. As expected, Lee Wooshin’s face stiffened.
It’s really strange. Other men love it when women take the initiative. Why is my husband like this? I want to try, and I want to impress you. I need to practice to get better!
As she stared at Lee Wooshin, if she even pretended to bend her knees a little… bang—.
See?
Lee Wooshin couldn’t hold back and quickly pulled her up. The grip on her arm was firm. Now, his gaze was piercingly sharp. Seeing Lee Wooshin’s strict expression after a long time made Seoryeong shrug her shoulders.
“You saw that just now, right? This is your problem, Instructor. It’s not my fault.”
“…..”
“It’s all because you can’t handle it, not me.”
His cheek twitched. For some reason, his side profile turned pale as he abruptly turned his head away. The hand that hurriedly swept back his wet hair revealed his inability to hide his fluster.
It was unlike Lee Wooshin to act this way, but his steps toward the dressing room seemed almost like he was fleeing.
What’s going on? Did I hit too close to home?
As Seoryeong followed in hurried steps, Lee Wooshin was turning his back, putting on his clothes. The tightly defined muscles along his sides were truly flawless.
Despite having a larger and sturdier body than anyone else, today, for some reason, his back looked shabby. The problem was that she couldn’t quite figure out why. Instinctively, Seoryeong began to soothe her husband gently.
“I wanted to go on a date with you.”
She approached softly and gave him a back hug, burying her nose in the hollow of his spine. She felt Lee Wooshin pause for a moment.
“There’s something I want to try after a long time.”
“What is it?”
Lee Wooshin turned around. Seoryeong sighed inwardly as she observed the serious expression on his face.
He had no hobbies of his own. Although her husband detested certain things, he responded so quickly to her requests.
However, as their eight-month newlywed life progressed, she began to feel a strange sense of discomfort regarding Lee Wooshin.
His life was monotonous.
The man who had lived as a spy for over ten years, or rather, the boy who had rolled in the field long before that, was drier than she had expected.
He had no desires, no eagerness to learn, and no enjoyment. His daily life flowed along like a hamster wheel, but upon closer inspection, it was filled with empty spaces.
If you took Han Seoryeong out of the equation, what would remain? Are you really okay with this?
She didn’t know. In fact, she felt a little sad because she didn’t know.
“It’s like a trip down memory lane. Just like before, with you…”
She closed her eyes and opened them again, raising her lips into a smile. Lee Wooshin instinctively lowered his head and stole a kiss from her lips. As they briefly shared breath, Seoryeong playfully smiled.
“I want to take a walk with my eyes closed.”
Lee Wooshin stood there for a moment, speechless and dazed.
