A Light Contract (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 37
Yura stood in front of the door, hesitating for a long while, just as she finally reached out toward the doorknob. The door gently opened, and Mi Hee, her mother-in-law, appeared.
“Honey, why are you just standing there? Come on in!”
“Have you… been well?”
“We’re always the same. Come in, hurry.”
Mi Hee’s kind face made Yura’s hesitation feel embarrassingly unnecessary as she gently guided her inside. Following her into the house, Yura saw her father-in-law, Baek Hyun Tae, standing in the living room and cautiously bowed her head.
“I’m… I’m so sorry….”
Seeing Yura so distressed, Mi Hee waved her hand dismissively to cut her off.
“Oh, honey, what do you have to be sorry for? It’s the one who made up nonsense who’s in the wrong.”
Yura couldn’t utter a word—she could only blink her eyes.
Her in-laws standing before her gazed at her with eyes filled with worry and sympathy. With so many sudden, unexpected events unfolding, Yura no longer had the mental capacity to judge whether their expressions were genuine or merely feigned.
Completely bewildered by their reaction—so opposite to her own parents’—she simply stood there, dazed and unsure what expression to even wear.
Mi He, noticing this, assumed Yura was still in shock from everything that had happened. Without hesitation, she stepped forward and gave Yura a light, reassuring hug. Overwhelmed by this unfamiliar gesture, Yura couldn’t respond at all.
“You must’ve been so startled. What on earth is going on?”
“Lee Hyun is handling it, so don’t worry too much.”
Baek Hyun Tae, her father-in-law, also tried comforting her with warm words.
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
