Sure enough, Chairman Cha sent a weighty look and began to speak.
“Yes, Grandfather.”
“Do you have a particular department in mind?”
“I would like to return to the marketing team. It suited me best.”
“Alright. We’ll make it so.”
Seizing the moment, Myung Ok quickly interjected.
“Father, about the director position I mentioned earlier…”
“I’ll have them create a manager position. Start coming in from next week.”
“Oh, Father!”
Myung Ok exclaimed loudly, her voice rising in disbelief. At a time rife with talk of succession and other important matters, a mere manager position seemed like a blatant exclusion of Soo Bin.
After all the patience and waiting. She was speechless with the rising sense of betrayal.
Myung Ok struggled to compose her trembling lips.
“Father, considering the eyes of the employees, a manager position?”
“Tae Sang started as an ordinary employee.”
“…….”
The color drained from Myung Ok’s face in an instant.
Bringing up Tae Sang at such a moment. Her hands trembled beneath the table, but from the opposite side came a cheerful voice.
“He’s called the legend of Hyo Seong, right? Brother is really amazing. Starting as a new recruit and becoming an executive.”
“So, will you start from the beginning too?”
“No! What are you saying? I prefer the easy road. Let’s start with the manager position, easy and simple.”
“…….”
The guy has no depth.
Flames sparked in Myung Ok’s eyes as she watched her son laugh carelessly. But, seemingly indifferent to such glares, Soo Bin nonchalantly made another astonishing statement.
“But next week is a bit too soon. I’ll start at the end of the month. I’ve just arrived in Korea after a long time; I should enjoy myself a bit.”
“The kid doesn’t understand the value of time. Do as you wish.”
Chairman Cha clicked his tongue and picked up his spoon again.
Myung Ok clenched her trembling hands and managed to lift her chopsticks.
She aimlessly picked up side dishes and brought them to her mouth, but her tongue tasted nothing.
Had she fallen asleep?
A languid sensation, making her reluctant to wake up, enveloped her body. Da Jeong slowly lifted her eyelids and looked around.
Everything was as it had been before she fell asleep. The soft sunlight streaming through the window, the subtle fragrance in the room, and the firm shoulder supporting her head.
As she gently lifted her head, Tae Sang’s face, breathing evenly in sleep, came into view.
‘He must be sleeping……?’
As she slightly raised her upper body, a faint creaking sound came from the leather sofa. Da Jeong shifted her weight as quietly as possible.
Then, as if he sensed her absence, Tae Sang’s brow furrowed slightly. Da Jeong looked at him curiously, then turned her gaze to the clock on the wall.
“Already……?”
The clock hands were already pointing to two o’clock. It seemed just a moment since she had closed her eyes, but already three hours had passed.
Da Jeong let go of her resentful gaze. It was unfortunate that so much time had passed, but being able to see Tae Sang sleeping peacefully was a great fortune.
Long eyelashes, relaxed eyes, and a nose exhaling even breaths. His comfortable appearance brought a smile to her face.
Long lashes resting gently, eyes relaxed and soft. His nose evenly breathing in slumber. The sight of his peaceful appearance naturally brought a smile to her face.
‘I wish he could sleep like this on the plane too…’
In the dead of night, when everyone else was asleep, Tae Sang’s place was always brightly lit.
She had wondered if a sleep-inducing herbal tea might help, but all Tae Sang needed was plain water, just water to take his sleeping pills with.
‘He must be really tired, right?’
The constant news of mergers, his role as the future successor of Hyo Seong. The burden he carried was unimaginably heavy.
He needed more rest and sleep than anyone else, but the torment of sleepless nights seemed unbearable.
‘Why can’t he always sleep like this… It’s painful to see.’
A pang of sorrow struck her, and a few strands of hair tickling the corner of her eyes caught her attention.
Da Jeong carefully brushed his hair aside, being careful not to touch his face. A smile of satisfaction formed as his face was revealed more clearly.
“……?”
For a brief moment, it seemed like the corners of his mouth twitched.
With a tense gaze, Da Jeong intently watched his lips. Then, his slightly flushed lips gently curved again.
“You’re awake, aren’t you?”
She quickly withdrew her hand from around his head, slightly irked that he was pretending to be asleep.
Tae Sang slowly lifted his eyelids. His black eyes immediately focused on her, suggesting he had been awake for some time.
“Didn’t you say you get nervous being next to me?”
“That, that was…”
“So you said we couldn’t sleep together.”
As always, he pinpointed the essence of the matter. Da Jeong stuttered, quickly trying to think of an excuse.
“Your hair kept poking your forehead, making you frown. That’s why I helped. Sleep well.”
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.
