“Ah, did I ask too personal a question? I was just envious seeing Mr. Cha and Ms. Se Ah together.”
Min Young watched with interest the change in Kang Woo’s expression. His long eyelashes curled up slightly.
It wasn’t a huge disturbance, but she felt joy in the moment his indifference shattered. It was as if she had caused a small crack in his impenetrable fortress. She felt a charm different from his cold, impassive demeanor.
She saw Se Ah slowly walking towards them.
Should I tease them a bit? If their marriage is strong, there’s no problem, right? With that thought.
It’s also for Se Ah’s sake. A man who is easily swayed by other women, Se Ah wouldn’t like that, right?
Kang Woo, who had straightened his upper body, crossed his arms defensively. His gaze and even the tilt of his lips. They were the same as Min Young usually saw. She fixed her gaze on his neatly opening lips.
“I’m very happy.”
It was a short and concise answer, but his expression seemed sincere.
She too had been on the verge of marriage after a long relationship with Kang Hyun Tae, who was also her university alumni.
Kang Hyun Tae, her fiancé, was a more affectionate man than anyone else, and she felt sorry for her friend who was forced into a loveless arranged marriage.
However, she found out that Kang Hyun Tae was seeing another woman behind her back just before their wedding.
While enjoying all the benefits of the car he drove, the house he lived in, and everything he gave her from head to toe, he had fun with another woman behind her back.
But this man, who was so perfect, married someone without looking at any conditions, just for love? How amazing that woman must be, something she herself couldn’t do.
“Ah, well, Se Ah is so pretty and kind. You’re newlyweds, there’s no way you’re not happy. I’m thinking of getting married too these days. My father is urging me.”
“Is that so? Please excuse me for a moment.”
Kang Woo’s response ended the conversation. Seeing him act so aloof made her more and more defiant.
“Ah. Mr. Cha.”
Min Young tilted her upper body towards Kang Woo, holding her chin. Her velvet dress was a bit more disheveled than before.
She showed Kang Woo, who was standing far away, a fresh smile, slightly shaking the empty teapot in her hand.
“On your way, could you get some water? Call Se Ah too. It’s a bit uncomfortable being with just Mr. Cha. Oh, I’m sorry. Was I too honest?”
“Not at all. I was about to do the same.”
At the polite refusal, Min Young leaned back with a smile.
“Mr. Cha, you know you’re too stiff, right? Don’t be like that with Se Ah. Women like affectionate men who care and look after them.”
“I’ll let them know to bring the drinks.”
“Yes.”
Only then did Kang Woo look back. A few steps back, he saw Se Ah standing still with a tray of tea and snacks. From his current position, Kang Woo looked at Se Ah, leaning his upper body at an angle.
Se Ah, standing still in one place, was cute. Her fair, round face was straight, and she was still, just like a baby snowman.
“Why are you standing there? Why aren’t you coming here?”
“Ah, I think I forgot the fork. I’ll go get it.”
“Just come and sit. I’ll get it.”
“No need. I’ll… Ah!”
Se Ah, who quickly turned her body, stumbled heavily. The teapot rolled on the grass, and the glass bowl with snacks also shattered. However, thanks to Kang Woo’s quick action, Se Ah was fortunately safe.
“Are you okay?”
“Yes. I’ll go in and get some more. I’m sorry.”
When Se Ah looked back, she saw Min Young standing there, wideeyed. Maybe surprised by the glass shards flying around, she had stepped back.
“I’m sorry, Min Young. You must have been surprised.”
“I’m fine, but Se Ah, you didn’t get burned, did you?”
Cautiously approaching Se Ah, Min Young asked after seeing the steam rising from the open teapot.
“Luckily, no.”
“Oh my! But it looks like Mr. Cha got burned?”
Only then did Se Ah look at Kang Woo. His right shoulder to his wrist was wet.
It seemed that he had gotten wet when he blocked her earlier. His shirt was clinging to his skin. He didn’t make a sound, so she assumed he was okay.
“What should we do? It must have been hot. You should go in and check.”
“It wasn’t that hot. The wind was cold, and the tea was a bit cooled down.”
“Still, just in case, cool it with cold water and change your shirt.”
“Okay, Mr. Cha. We wouldn’t want to risk infection.”
Min Yeong quickly voiced her worried words.
“Is that so?”
“Of course. Burns can last a long time. Mr. Kang Woo, hurry up.”
Since it was because of her that Kang Woo got burnt, Se Ah repeatedly said with an anxious face. But the person involved, Kang Woo, remained calm.
“That’s fine. I’m a man, what’s a little burn.”
“No, why would you worsen it? Be quick.”
“Go in and treat it yourself then.”
Kang Woo calmly undid the buttons of his wet shirt sleeve with a thump, thump.
“I can’t do it alone because it’s my right hand.”
“……”
Kang Woo was certain. Since Min Yeong was watching, Ji Se Ah wouldn’t be able to refuse.

Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
