Dash (sound of a train leaving). Hurry. It seems like a way for you to be forgiven by Da-hyun has appeared.
When it can’t be submitted as evidence in court, the whole world could know what Soo-cheol had done.
Confessions of the things Soo-cheol did to her.
If Min-hyuk couldn’t hand it over to the court, he could at least let the world know what Soo-cheol had done.
If Soo-cheol kindly sends his beloved Yusong Group into ruin, it will be enough.
Min-hyuk’s eyes sparkled with madness, and he couldn’t conceal his joy as he drew a line on his lips.
After patting his chin with his hand, he left the kitchen and called Si-hoon.
The signal tone didn’t last long. As soon as Si-hoon answered the call, he asked about Da-hyun’s well-being.
“I didn’t contact you because I was worried. Is the news true? Is Mr. Jeesu okay?”
“No, he’s not okay.”
[Well, how could it be okay? If I were him, whether he’s my father or whatever, I’d demand to release my mother right away.]
“Really?”
[No, it’s too scary, so I won’t do that.]Min-hyuk was about to tell Si-hoon that Soo-cheol is actually Da-hyun’s stepfather, not her biological father, but he kept his mouth shut. This part was a very sensitive situation, and he couldn’t tell someone else.
[By the way, seeing you contacting me, has it been a while? Or is there something you need?]Si-hoon realized that Min-hyuk didn’t call to inquire about his well-being genuinely.
Even if Soo-cheol entrusted Yeon-sil to Da-hyun, Min-hyuk had no intention of stopping what he was planning to do.
Min-hyuk released the brakes to let his anger toward Soo-cheol continue its unstoppable rampage.
“There’s no need to wait. Whether the article buries my mother or not, I’ll expose the illegal surveillance files. Let everyone in the world know.”
[What? Then there’s no point in saving it, right?]“No, now is the time to feel its value.”
“If you step on too hard at once, it’s not fun. I don’t send it all at once because I want to see it writhing as it gradually gets trampled.”
Soo-cheol was already in a dilemma. Knowing this, he would do anything to get out of it.
If Da-hyun, along with the evidence she got from Chang-jung, exposes the Yusong slush fund irregularities, it could deal a blow strong enough to prevent Soo-cheol from recovering.
[You’re scary. You’re my brother, but you’re so scary. I feel it again, but I’m glad you’re not on the other side.]“Release it right away.”
[Okay, got it. And Min-hyuk.]“Yeah?”
[Your voice sounds bright, refreshing to my ears. I was worried about the worst, but I’m glad that the thing I feared the most is resolved. You and Mr. Jeesu match really well.]“That’s childish.”
Min-hyuk didn’t want to talk for a long time, so he hung up. Si-hoon vaguely understood his situation, but he didn’t know precisely that Min-hyuk had reconciled with Da-hyun.
That’s how much his mood had clearly changed.
“Let’s check about 10 minutes later.”
By then, articles would be flowing in one after another, occupying various main spots in the news.
It was a warning to Soo-cheol. You may have reached the end, but I’m just starting now.
Min-hyuk’s gaze deepened, and a flash of determination appeared.
Waiting for Soo-cheol is not a bright future but destruction.
Min-hyuk intended to show him that clearly.
Da-hyun pushed Min-hyuk away and entered her room alone, her nose tingling, and she focused her eyes. It felt like someone was squeezing her heart with one hand.
She felt belatedly embarrassed for crying so loudly in front of Chang-jung. Da-hyun put the box she was holding on the floor.
Chang-jung insisted on checking the USB himself and left.
Da-hyun looked at the box, hesitated for a moment, and put it back down.
To be honest, Da-hyun was afraid to open the box that Chang-jung gave her. If she opened this box with her own hands, her life so far would seem too miserable.
Despite the resentment, she endured it because he was her father. The fact that Soo-cheol was not her biological father made her feel unjust and overwhelmed with resentment.
“Mom.”
She didn’t have the right to open the box.
The fact that she had tried to give up Yeon-sil for the sake of the child made her feel pathetic and ashamed, and she couldn’t bear it.
Instead of opening the box, Da-hyun lifted it again and held it preciously in her arms.
After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)
One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.
On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.
Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.
News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.
Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.
But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.
The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.
The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”
So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.
She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.
*
After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.
Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.
Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.
She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.
“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
