“Yes, you’re right. Please, have your meal.”
Even though her husband was difficult, HyunSook did her best to deter him. However, she soon had to shut her mouth helplessly at the sound of a fake cough.
“Instead of worrying about children, you just have to support KangWoo so he can focus on his business. You understand what I’m saying, right?”
NamTae’s calculated gaze was fixed entirely on SeAh.
“Yes, father.”
SeAh put down her spoon for a moment as she choked up and tried to drink some water.
“SeAh, are you done eating? You seem thinner. Are you sick?”
“No, mother.”
Despite HyunSook’s worried words, NamTae just lightly clicked his tongue.
“You should never put your spoon down before your superiors.”
“I’m sorry.”
Without making any excuses, SeAh picked up her spoon. It felt as though her stomach could not handle even one more bite.
“Even from one small habit, you can tell someone’s background.”
At NamTae’s comment, laced with a slight chuckle, SeAh’s face involuntarily turned red.
His words implied that she couldn’t help it because she was an orphan.
However, he never directly said it. He always blamed her indirectly, as he did now.
“With the election right around the corner, everyone should be careful with their behavior.”
NamTae looked down at SeAh as he stood up from his seat first.
“Come up to my study.”
At his cold command, devoid of warmth, SeAh’s pale skin turned ashen. Suppressing her creeping anxiety, she followed NamTae.

The dense forest of buildings in Gangnam.
A black sedan entered the underground parking lot, and soon after, SeAh got out of the car.
SeAh went into a cooking class on the top floor. Imagemaking, floristry, English conversation, etc. After going around Gangnam all day, this was her last lesson.
“Hello?”
The director, who was arranging cooking utensils in the cupboard, turned around.
“Oh my! Madam, you’re here?”
The director crossed the cooking counter and came over.
“You’re a bit late, but you’ve arrived just in time.”
“Luckily, the traffic wasn’t bad.”
Despite the tired veins in SeAh’s eyes as she pulled her lips into a soft smile, she stood at the islandstyle cooking counter without any sign of fatigue.
“Today we will be learning to make chicken stew. We’re going to make it with the leftover chicken from last time.”
As the director did, SeAh prepared the chicken and made the broth.
Standing straight in front of the fire, wearing uncomfortable clothes and heels, her calves tensed up.
This continued for three hours. Finally, the cooking class was over.
“You did so well, even though it’s an advanced class.”
The director took out her phone from the pocket inside her apron and repeatedly pressed the camera shutter button.
She circled around SeAh, claiming it was for blog promotion, but SeAh noticed. It was intended to be forwarded to ‘that person’.
“Oh, madam. You haven’t registered for next month’s class yet. Isn’t it inconvenient to apply every month? If you enroll in the oneyear course, it would be more convenient.”
The director with good sales skills subtly pushed again this time.
“I might be busy at home.”
“Oh, I see.”
While the director filled the container with the dish they made together, she chatted about this and that.
“Oh, the daughter of G Coms registered here a while ago. Are you two friends?”
“No, I haven’t met her yet.”
The director, who taught many celebrities, including female entrepreneurs and stars, was talkative and interested in others’ affairs.
“Right. She just returned from the US not long ago. I met her for the first time at the last class, and my goodness, she’s a beauty.”
“Yes.”
Formally responding, SeAh recalled her memory.
G Coms is a global game company and was collaborating with KangWoo. The daughter of G Coms also attended their wedding.
Finally, the director handed the shopping bag to SeAh.
“Please inform me of the next class progression via phone.”
“I will do that. Thank you for today.”
It was only after she had completely turned her back that SeAh’s smile faded.
This tedious class was finally over today.
((()))((()))((()))
Se Ah had been busy all day attending various classes, only arriving home after a good nine hours.
Sinking onto the sofa, she slightly unzipped the back of her lifeless dress. She gently massaged her weary legs that had worked continuously throughout the day.
After marriage, whether she had lost more weight, even her own hands could barely grasp her slimming ankles.
As befitting the highestpriced premium mansion in Gangnam, their newlywed house was perfect. Magnificent views, high ceilings like a hotel, and elegant interior decoration. Additionally, a clear ivorycolored marble floor and modern furniture. Looking down, a wedding photo on an antique display on the left caught her eye.
A man with an unrivaled physique and handsome features that stood out at first glance. Next to him stood a bashful version of herself.
She awkwardly crossed her arms over his long, proud eyelashes.
A beautiful wife with a successful businessman husband and a solid family background. A rich and elegant life that not everyone can easily enjoy. Everything seemed plausible.
Soon it was time for Kang Woo to arrive. She changed into the dress he had gifted her on their wedding anniversary, and lightly applied lipstick on her lips.
Dinner had already been prepared in the dining room. The stew she had made in today’s cooking class was served in the prettiest bowl, placed alongside the rest.
There was a sound at the front door. Leaving the kitchen and reaching him, she locked eyes with Kang Woo as he changed into his indoor slippers.
“Are you here?”
“Have you been waiting for me?”
There was a brief delay before Kang Woo’s lips curled into a small smile. In his big hand was a deep navy jacket and a briefcase.
“Yes, I’ve been waiting.”
“That’s the first time I’ve heard you say that.”
His lips curled more prominently than before. Following Kang Woo, who took the first step toward the dining room, Se Ah hurriedly followed.
“It seems like you’ve prepared more than usual today.”
Before sitting down, Kang Woo scanned the table.
“Why is this only on my side?”
Kang Woo lightly touched the crystal bowl containing the chicken stew. His voice was a tone higher than usual. He spoke more than usual. Se Ah was taken aback by his unfamiliar behavior.
“……I made it in today’s cooking class, and I’ve already tasted it.”
Kang Woo, who was taking a bite, raised his long eyelashes.
“Lately, you’ve been staring at me. Do you have something to say to me?”
Quick as always, his eyes narrowed as his lips slowly curled.
When his dark eyes persisted in their entanglement, Se Ah lowered her gaze.
“Let’s eat first.”
Despite Se Ah’s suggestion, Kang Woo put down his spoon.
“Look at me because I have something to say.”
His clear voice dropped concisely, and Se Ah looked up at him.
Now, as their eyes met for a long time, her face spontaneously flushed. It was difficult and still embarrassing.
She had felt it since the first time she saw him, but his features were so vivid.
His white face contrasted with his black eyes, his lips had a hint of diluted red paint. Even if he didn’t spit out any harsh words, his cold demeanor was commanding. She captured his figure in her mind as if engraving it onto her brain.
“Come to the office for lunch tomorrow.”
“……Why?”
“We haven’t reported our marriage yet, I thought we might as well get it done since I remembered.”
Instead of answering, Se Ah’s lips began to tremble. She soon bit her lower lip and showed a bitter smile.
“……No. There’s no need for that.”
“What do you mean?”
Whether he was trying to understand the meaning of her words, his long eyelashes fluttered.
“Let’s break up.”
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
