“I told you. It’s okay. Even if you don’t go to the hospital, it’ll get better soon anyway. Why worry so much?”
“I get worried just hearing that you’re in pain. That’s why.”
A silent gaze, as if forgetting what I was about to say, fell upon my face. Since it didn’t hurt much, Jun murmured softly.
But he didn’t say anything more than that. It was as if he, someone who just found out, now understood that empty words trying to reassure me only inflated my concerns.
As if the person looking at me with a heart that had run non-stop to get here and my own feelings looking at him now were the same.
“Haru.”
“Yeah.”
Now, finally hearing his calm voice, I took a step closer to Jun. Heat was transmitted from Jun’s gently held hand.
“Oh, what should I do? Your hands are even hot. It’s upsetting…”
“It’s strange that only my hands aren’t hot.”
“Let me see.”
Listening to Jun’s words, I grabbed his shoulder and brought it down. As if he had predetermined the limit of how much I would bring down his shoulder, I felt him tilt it just a little and then sensed the strength in his body. Even at times like this, it was uncomfortable to stick to my stubbornness.
“Let me see if you have a fever.”
“I don’t want to.”
Jun, already stroking my messed-up hair as if ruffling it, began to move towards the living room.
“Kim Jun, come here.”
“I don’t want to. Touch it as much as you want then.”
“…Then should I handle it myself?”
“Try if you can.”
Jun went into the bedroom next to the living room, holding the phone he had scattered on the bed in his hands, muttering and tapping on it while talking about how many times I called him. I approached him from behind. Jun’s back, exposed without any defenses, was visible. Extending my arms as if to wrap around Jun’s back, I inserted my hand into his shirt.
Whether it was Jun calling my name first or my voice saying, “Ah, it’s too hot,” in surprise, I don’t know which came first.
“Oh, it won’t work. I brought a fever sheet. Let’s put that on. And also… Anyway, let’s start with that.”
Turning around, the steps I took, as if rushing to run away, couldn’t go forward. I took off the steps I had taken from behind and leaned into Jun, who was pulling me toward his chest with my waist.
“It might be useless to put that on. Because you just put your hand in my shirt without my permission, it’s all pointless now.”
“What are you saying? Let go of this.”
“Even if you ask me to let go, I didn’t put it on in the first place.”
“Kim Jun.”
“Even if you don’t call me so bluntly, I understand everything. Kim Jun is here. Behind you.”
“Hey…”
“Why…”
“…Okay. Then, just let me go properly for a moment.”
“Sure. I won’t refuse that.”
With a wry smile, Jun loosened his grip on me. As if he was thinking of hugging me again, he loosened his arms, creating a gap between the not-so-wide radius.
Pretending to turn around, I quickly withdrew my body. Immediately, I pinched Jun’s waist firmly. Perhaps the power was miscalculated; Jun, almost collapsing, began to crouch, rubbing his waist. A suppressed groan escaped from Jun’s lips.
“I told you not to do that.”
“Wow… Treating a patient like this.”
“Only at times like this. You said you didn’t hurt at all earlier.”
“…Um. I just have a fever.”
Jun, who quickly changed his posture, made a far-fetched excuse that he only had a fever and not pain. Perhaps it was because he thought it was more important to reassure me first.
“Okay. If it’s just a fever and not pain, lie down for a moment. So that you don’t get a fever and continue not to hurt.”
I grabbed Jun’s hand and pulled him. Even in the hand I had grabbed to match, I felt that he was coming reluctantly. I barely sat him on the bed. Even though his face still looked full of heat. My face doing this displeased me, even though it was to reassure me.
Ignoring that, I took out a cooling sheet I had prepared from my bag.
“Jun, come here.”
“…Whoever wants to put it on.”
I felt the reluctance not to put it on obediently. I thought I should go closer to keep that reluctance.
“Yeah.”
Without much thought, I leaned toward Jun. While estimating where to put the sheet, Jun buried his face in my shoulder. I tolerated it up to that point.
However, he pulled me by the waist and lay down on the bed, his body wrapped around mine, and it became awkward and embarrassing.
“Oh, Kim Jun. Did you act all dignified on purpose for this?”
“No.”
Even though he said no, there was a hint of laughter in his denial. I tried to twist my body to escape from the tight embrace, but Jun didn’t think of letting go. Although I was in pain, I couldn’t get out of that embrace with my own strength.
“I’m a patient now. You have to take care of me gently.”
“Ha, Kim Jun. You really…”
I could feel the warmth even through Jun’s thin shirt. Thinking about what to do, I decided to stay like this for a moment. If I stayed like this, Jun would lie down quietly, so I thought it might be better.
“But, Jun.”
“Yeah.”
“You’re too hot. I can still feel it all over your body.”
“You would feel it. Because you’re on top of me.”
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…?
