“You are living well now. Is divorce a sin?”

“I feel like I’ve become a total failure in life. I thought these kinds of things only happened in dramas.”
“So Myung, your life is yours, and in today’s world, is divorce that big a deal? Our daughter is so beautiful and wonderful. You can start again. I can’t stand seeing you suffer more from not getting a divorce and holding in your pain. Even if it’s for one day, I would like my daughter to live happily.”
“Mom, I will really work hard and be dutiful.”
“Staying by your mother’s side like this is being dutiful. Your mother doesn’t wish for anything else. I just want you to live happily. Our So Myung is so positive. Your mom believes in you.”
“Mom.”
Like a child, So Myung hugged her mother tightly.

‘Yes, let’s start over.’
So Myung made a firm resolution and steadied her heart once more.

After dropping her mother off, she headed home.

Her mind became impatient, thinking she needed to quickly go and water the plants.

While waiting for the elevator in the basement parking lot, she checked her phone. There was a missed call from Ji Sung, and the call log showed afterwards.

‘Mom?’
There was no doubt that her mother and Ji Sung had talked on the phone. But her mother hadn’t mentioned the conversation. It was clear that she didn’t want her to worry.

She was curious why Ji Sung had called, but she didn’t want to call him back. Although it wouldn’t be easy, she wanted to erase him from her heart. She wished to go back to the past when she hadn’t met him.

Even though she had decided to divorce him, the memories of the 10 years they had built together were still in her heart.

She got on the elevator with a bitter expression.

She had been preparing for her separation from him countless times.

She got off the elevator and went home.

The house, too large to live alone, felt empty. As soon as she changed her clothes, she ran to the balcony and looked at the plants.

She filled the watering can with water and watered the pots and sprayed the leaves with a mister.

This place was a refuge for So Myung. People could hurt her, but if she only tried, the plants always gave her peace with their evergreen leaves.

After watering, she began to clean up the accumulated dust. If she stayed still, thoughts of Ji Sung started to creep in her head, like insects crawling around.

She thought she needed to keep moving her body relentlessly so she wouldn’t have any thoughts.

Then her phone started ringing. It was Ji Sung.

So Myung took a deep breath and reluctantly answered the phone after staring at it.

“Hello.”
“Are you home?”
Ji Sung’s voice came through the receiver, the same voice that used to whisper sweetly to her.

So Myung’s eyes widened in surprise, and she couldn’t say anything for a moment. In that brief silence, Ji Sung’s voice reached her ears again.

“I spoke with my mother yesterday.”
“Ah.”
So Myung responded coldly.

“You’ve changed the password.”
“Yes.”
“……”
“Bring the documents.”
“Ah.”
“Are you coming right after work?”
“Yes.”
“Hang up.”
With a cold voice, So Myung cut the call immediately after saying this.

‘Right. Let’s finish this quickly.’
So Myung took a deep breath and shook her head.

‘The old Ji Sung is gone.’
So Myung started cleaning where she had left off. She scrubbed the floor vigorously with a mop.

Ji Sung, who had hung up the phone, felt uneasy about So Myung’s attitude.

‘Selfish bastard.’
That’s right. He was a limitless egoist. Since he started living with Ra Hee, he had been constantly comparing her differences with So Myung.

From one to ten, So Myung and Ra Hee were completely different. If he felt So Myung’s every action was frustrating, Ra Hee seemed to be sensitive, nitpicking, and trying to tie him down.

That had seemed attractive at the time.

Why was he so confused now that So Myung had agreed to divorce? His thoughts were so tangled that it was hard for him to think straight.

He finished work and got in the car. A sigh naturally escaped from his mouth.

He soon started the car and began driving towards the house where he and she used to live alone.

Meanwhile, as Do Ha was almost home after finishing his schedule, his phone rang loudly. He checked the caller ID, but it was a number he had never seen before.

Do Ha answered the phone with a puzzled look.

“Hello.”
[Brother.] A familiar voice came through the receiver.

‘Se Bin?’
“……”
For a moment, Do Ha forgot what to say and focused only on driving. Then a bright and bubbly voice started coming through the receiver.

[Brother? Why aren’t you saying anything?]

“Why did you call?”
Do Ha spoke in a low, blunt voice.

[I called to talk about our marriage.] “Are you crazy?”
[No. You know we have to get married anyway.] “I will never marry you.”
[We don’t have a say in this.] “You… really.”
[I want to live a good life married to you since it’s come to this. We once loved each other.] “Don’t bring up the past. And don’t contact me anymore.”
[Brother, can you win against the chairman?] “Haah, let’s stop talking.”
As Do Ha was about to hang up, Se Bin spoke urgently.

[I’m on my way to you.] “What?”
For a moment, Do Ha’s eyes were full of anger, gleaming fiercely.

He was so angry he thought he might go crazy. He didn’t understand why she was making things so difficult for him.

He once loved her, but the wounds he received from her were too deep.

The memories of her left in him were nothing but pain, so much so that he wanted to completely erase her from his mind.

[I asked the chairman. Your home.] “Turn around immediately.”
[I’m almost there.] “Go back.”
Do Ha hung up the phone with a cold expression. He parked his car in the apartment’s underground parking lot and got out. Do Ha was so stressed his head felt dizzy.

After catching his breath for a moment, he walked towards the elevator. Sighs kept escaping from his mouth.

Soon, the elevator stopped and its doors opened.

Do Ha looked at the entrance to his apartment with an anxious look. As expected, standing in front of the entrance was Se Bin, who was dressed up in fancy clothes.

He glared at Se Bin angrily.

“Oppa?”

As he got out of the elevator, Se Bin called out to him cheerfully.

However, he ignored her call and started punching in the door code.

Soon, the door opened and he tried to push himself into the house, but Se Bin pulled on his arm.

“Let go.”
“Oppa, let’s talk for a moment.”
“I told you to leave right away.”
“Oppa, let’s not waste time. You know better than anyone that this is a winwin for both our companies.”
“I never thought about our company’s benefits when I met you.”
“I know. You really liked me.”
“I’ve long forgotten about you. I really don’t want to get involved with you again. Please, go away.”
“Oppa. I haven’t forgotten you.”
“Enough. Let this go.”
Do Ha forcefully shook off Se Bin’s arm, went inside, and slammed the door shut.

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.

[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
