Chapter 63

"Alright then, Eun-jung, let's get married!" Yoon Hyun smiled and extended his hand to Ham Eun-jung.

"Sure! OPPA!" Eun-jung also smiled and took Yoon Hyun's outstretched hand.

"By the way, according to the rules, shouldn't we come up with nicknames for each other or something?" Yoon Hyun thought for a moment, "You call me OPPA, but I feel like I'll be out of character at any moment."

"Then what do you want me to call you, OPPA?" Eun-jung asked.

"Well... you decide!"

"Dear? Honey? Ananda?" Eun-jung threw out three big options.

Yoon Hyun was speechless. Why did this sound so familiar?

"OPPA, you choose one." Eun-jung said with a smile.

"None of them are good; they'll make me think of Eun-hye." Yoon Hyun shook his head.

"Ah, we just got married, and OPPA is already missing his ex-wife. Am I really that unappealing to you?" Eun-jung instantly took on the role of a long-suffering wife.

"Hey, the title 'husband' is quite nice. You can call me that from now on." Yoon Hyun suddenly said.

"Alright, husband." Eun-jung nodded in agreement, still maintaining the image of a long-suffering wife, "Then how will you call me, husband?"

"Actually, I think calling you 'Baek' or 'Baeggu' would be fine." Yoon Hyun said.

"No way. I want a term of endearment." Eun-jung firmly rejected.

"Princess?" Yoon Hyun suddenly said.

"Then I'll call you General!" Eun-jung started to act out.

"Are we turning from a daily soap opera into a historical comedy, Princess?" Yoon Hyun asked.

"General, I think this is great." Eun-jung nodded.

"Princess, are you ready for your meal?" Yoon Hyun began to speak in a historical drama tone.

"I've been hungry for a long time, General. You probably haven't had lunch either, right?" Eun-jung immediately took on the air of a princess.

"Then what would Princess like to eat?"

"As our first meal together, we should eat something romantic, General."

"Princess is right."

"I know of a pig's trotter shop nearby that has great food. Want to go there?"

...

During the meal.

"Although we've known each other for a long time, we're not really that familiar, right?" Eun-jung said, putting a wrapped rice ball in her mouth.

"Sort of. I only know that you were born in 1988, and that's about it." Yoon Hyun picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth.

"Then let's get to know each other better." Eun-jung said, "I can't stand overly domineering men."

"I know. You've always been independent and strong," Yoon Hyun nodded, "I really admire that about you."

Eun-jung's face turned slightly red.

"I rarely make decisions, but once I do, I don't change my mind. So I hope you won't pretend to ask for my opinion when you already have your own ideas, and then force me to follow your way when I finally come up with something." Yoon Hyun thought for a moment, "I don't like that push-pull dynamic. I prefer straightforwardness."

"I've always been pretty straightforward," Eun-jung interjected, "At least with OPPA... I mean, General."

"I know, that's why I said it. I just hope you can be straightforward with OPPA and Princess with General, and don't think that because General is your husband, he should automatically understand your thoughts, and then set up some tests..." Yoon Hyun explained.

"So you're just lazy, OPPA." Eun-jung hit the nail on the head. Then she sighed, "This is why you won't find a girlfriend."

"Can't find one? No problem, I'm already married, and this wife suits me just fine!" Yoon Hyun said half-jokingly.

"Alright. I actually prefer that kind of relationship too." Eun-jung sighed, somewhat helplessly. "Things like food preferences..."

"I know, we've eaten together so many times." Yoon Hyun nodded.

"We don't need to exchange phone numbers, right?"

"...Did you delete my number?" Yoon Hyun felt a drop of sweat.

"Delete and re-add." Eun-jung said.

...

"By the way, Eun-jung!" After finishing the meal, the atmosphere between Yoon Hyun and Eun-jung had returned to a relaxed state.

"What should General call me?"

"Oh, sorry, Princess, I'm your senior, shouldn't you perform a greeting ceremony or something for me?" Yoon Hyun teased, smiling... He didn't originally have this idea, but the production team thought their first meeting was a bit... awkward, so they decided to push the awkwardness even further... It's called enjoying the spectacle without fearing the consequences.

"Does General really want that?" Eun-jung's face fell, and her tone carried a hint of threat. It was clear she didn't like the idea.

"I think it's great." Yoon Hyun had a mischievous look on his face. He knew Eun-jung had no interest in the performance...

But Yoon Hyun suddenly thought it would be useful for establishing the household hierarchy.

"Oh." Eun-jung stood up expressionless and performed a dance without music.

"Princess, your dance is truly excellent!" Yoon Hyun clapped, though he didn't understand what dance Eun-jung was doing...

"Thank you for the compliment, General." Eun-jung's face showed no joy from the praise.

"You're about to release your first official album, right? How's the preparation going?" Yoon Hyun realized Eun-jung was probably a bit angry, so he helped promote T-ara.

"Yes, it should be released next month." Eun-jung's anger subsided slightly when talking about work.

"Is there anything I can help with?" Yoon Hyun asked.

"Does General want to act in another MV like 'Lie'?" Eun-jung's lips curled into a strange smile.

"Does Princess mind if I get close to other girls or have kiss scenes in dramas?" Yoon Hyun countered.

"Before we were married, I didn't mind. But now that you're mine, I definitely will." Eun-jung said seriously.

"Who's mine, who's yours... Princess, why are you getting so mushy?" Yoon Hyun shuddered.

"Isn't this a natural state for a woman? General, you really don't understand women! Are those love songs you wrote really yours?" Eun-jung couldn't help but criticize.

"Alright, I'm yours, and you're mine. From today on, all kiss scenes need my approval, and no bed scenes!" Yoon Hyun thought for a moment and proposed as a trade.

"Deal!" Eun-jung extended her hand and shook Yoon Hyun's, sealing the deal.

"Should we confess some of our pasts?" Eun-jung asked as soon as they let go.

"I've never had a girlfriend!" Yoon Hyun said bluntly.

"Is that true? The information I have is different." Eun-jung pulled out a notebook from her bag, "According to reliable sources, your first kiss was with Yoon Eun-hye, right?"

Yoon Hyun was stunned, and instinctively nodded, not thinking.

"Then you had a rumor with Girls' Generation's Taeyeon, right?"

"This... it was a joke by our fans..."

"So it's true? And, you have a good relationship with the seniors of Girls' Generation..."

"That was a joke! Just a joke!"

"Apparently, you also have a good relationship with Han Hyo-ju..."

"We met while filming, but it didn't work out, so we just got to know each other!"

"Then, you even had a kiss scene with T-ara's Ji-yeon! She's so young, not even an adult! How could you do that?"

"...Wasn't that required for the MV..."

"Couldn't you refuse? And I was there too!" Eun-jung pretended to be very angry. "And the latest news, you had a kiss scene with Kim Tae-hee!"

"She's my sister!"

"Kissing your sister! You..." Eun-jung made a shivering motion.

Yoon Hyun was speechless.

"Those are just a few pieces of information provided by an unnamed source." Eun-jung closed the notebook and said calmly, "As for your long-term relationship with an unknown girl, I'll reserve the right to pursue it further."

"Tell me who the unnamed source is, and I promise not to kill her." Yoon Hyun said fiercely.

"Are you planning to murder your wife?" Eun-jung suddenly looked terrified, "Tell me, which woman wants you to kill me to marry her?"

"..." Yoon Hyun was completely speechless. "When did you prepare this list?"

"On the way to the restaurant." Eun-jung said nonchalantly.

"...Women are scary." Yoon Hyun said, deeply moved.

"I'm like this, what, not satisfied?" Eun-jung looked arrogant.

"Then let's talk about your past. I heard you met a nice guy at university this year..." Yoon Hyun remembered a classic saying: the best defense is a good offense.

"No, no." Eun-jung immediately waved her hands.

"I also heard he was quite handsome and tall." Yoon Hyun continued to attack with a smile.

"General, I think past things are meaningless. We should look forward!" Eun-jung suddenly said seriously.

"Then what about the rights you reserved to pursue further?"

"What rights? I don't remember."

"Good that you don't remember."

Then the dinner truly ended.

They were then taken separately for interviews in small black rooms.

"Can I curse?" Yoon Hyun glared at the PD as soon as he sat down.

"Well, I think Yoon Hyun and your wife had a pretty good chat!" The PD was sweating.

"Could I have flipped the table at Eun-jung?" Yoon Hyun looked helpless.

The atmosphere suddenly became incredibly awkward.

"Actually, before I came yesterday, I imagined several possible fake wives. Eun-jung was one of them, and she was even near the top..." Yoon Hyun thought for a moment and decided to say something more entertaining, which was also true.

"Oh? What rank was Eun-jung?"

"Just the order I thought of! I was thinking about what kind of girl I would be satisfied with, and then I started piecing together clues. Among the people I know, Eun-jung was one of them."

"Then why did you say that when you first met today?"

"Didn't I say it's hard to make a move when you're too familiar?" Yoon Hyun sighed, "And this arrangement will make it hard for me to face Juri and Ji-yeon..."

"Why?"

"Why do you think! A group of friends, suddenly two of them get married, what do you think the others will do?"

"When you were having dinner, why did Eun-jung seem so agitated when she asked about your rumors and close relationships with girls?" The PD thought for a moment and decided to change the topic.

"Agitated? I was just playing along. Her stories are much more interesting than mine. Sigh, that's the result of being too familiar, no secrets at all." Yoon Hyun sighed again.

"Can you give some outlook on your marriage?"

"What to look forward to? Just get by! We're already married, what can we do, divorce?"

At the same time, in another small black room, Eun-jung said, "Just get by. We're already married."

Thus, Yoon Hyun's new married life began...
