“It might not have enough depth for books. If you put cute dishes, like antique teacups, it would look so pretty.”
Seeing Eun-Soo wandering around the shelf, Joo-Han smirked.
“You’d probably like it.”
With a simple comment, Joo-Han, who had been exerting all his strength all day, revealed his well-developed arm muscles and disappeared into the warehouse.
‘He picks it up like that.’ Unlike Park PD, who was impressed and even moved by the situation, Eun-Soo muttered quietly.
“I won’t give it to him for nothing…”
Unlike the tension during the first interview, Eun-Soo, absorbed in work, almost forgot that there were cameras and microphones around.
Se-Kyung smiled and said, “Seeing Manager Seon’s reaction, it seems like this will sell first again this time.”
Not a hundred percent, but there was a fairly high probability that the items Eun-Soo personally liked were the first to catch the eyes of customers.
Of course, following ‘s philosophy that each piece of furniture has its own owner, there were cases where the furniture brought in, thinking it would sell well, stayed for several years or someone discovered and took away furniture that was relatively unnoticed.
“I want to put it in the showroom and enjoy it every day, but it seems like it’ll be sent away soon, right?”
Joo-Han, carrying a large side table on one shoulder, passed by, saying, “Let’s finish bringing things in and leave work for today!”
After all the employees left, only Joo-Han and Eun-Soo remained at . As Eun-Soo cleaned up the office and went downstairs, Joo-Han, who was standing on the first floor, turned his head.
“Are you going to have dinner again today?”
What’s he talking about? When did we make dinner plans… Just before spitting out those words, Eun-Soo saw it. Joo-Han’s eyebrows twitching and moving.
That’s for real, again without any notice or discussion!
Eun-Soo was convinced. Joo-Han, whose judgment was somehow twisted, was showing some kind of color to me.
Taking advantage of the fact that I can’t argue or swear in front of the camera and that violence is even more out of the question, he clearly intended to confuse me.
‘He’ll probably make excuses like it was because of the broadcast, and I’ll end up being someone who can’t catch the rhythm, just a person who ruined everything.’
Eun-Soo quickly approached and punched Joo-Han on the arm.
“Hey. We should have dinner and go home. Let’s have a home-cooked meal at your place tonight.”
“Home?”
Joo-Han’s pupils shook. His arm, caught by Eun-Soo, stiffened. Eun-Soo smiled.
“Just casually, how about eating what’s at home? Is there anything to eat in the fridge?”
“Well, I don’t think there’s anything special. Just ordering food…”
“No, honey.”
Joo-Han’s mouth, startled by a term he had never heard even in his dreams, opened wide, then quickly closed before being caught on camera.
“You don’t even eat breakfast, and you eat out for lunch every day. It’s good to have a home-cooked meal even if it’s just one meal. Do you have kimchi at home? How about tuna and instant rice?”
“Well, there’s everything…”
“Okay, that’s settled. I’ll make kimchi fried rice, so slice the kimchi and stir-fry it with tuna in a pan, and I’ll just add rice, okay?”
“Isn’t that something I can do?”
“No, I’ll do it.”
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Park PD, who had quietly followed them, asked for permission and went upstairs ahead to shoot their movements. Taking advantage of that, Joo-Han covered the microphone with one hand and quickly said, almost with his mouth.
“Hey, honey, that’s cheating.”
Eun-Soo also stood up to the challenge with martial arts.
“If it bothers you, you can do it too. But if you do, I’ll do something even worse.”
“Are you telling me to do it or not?”
“Why don’t you try it once?”
“Doing it is not doing it, right?”
“That’s right. Just give it a try.”
Anyway, outwardly, they went into Joo-Han’s house, playfully fist-bumping each other. Fortunately, since it wasn’t their first time, Eun-Soo naturally put down her bag.
“I’ll wash my hands first and then…”
“Wash your hands and sit down. I’ll be slicing kimchi and stir-frying it with tuna in a pan and adding rice.”
Joo-Han pushed Eun-Soo onto the sofa. After that, he headed to the kitchen himself. In fact, as he pondered the shock of hearing “honey,” he felt the need to focus on something else.
‘I’ve never said such a thing even as a joke… But it was incredibly natural. Could he have used it on someone else or…’
Joo-Han’s fingertips, holding the refrigerator door handle, turned somewhat pale.
They knew they were each other’s first love, but there was no way of knowing after they broke up. Even though there was no information, and they didn’t see each other much during work, it couldn’t be evidence that Eun-Soo didn’t have another lover.
“I know Eun-Soo could have met and broken up with anyone without showing any signs. Above all, there hasn’t been a single man interested in Eun-Soo until now.”
‘That team leader from that magazine too…’
He was thankful for making Eun-Soo quit and come to , but confessing was a part that made him hot every time he thought about it. Of course, I knew it wasn’t a situation where I should feel hot. That’s why it made me even more annoyed.
Like a fish in an aquarium, the thought of ‘honey’ swam back and forth in his mind to escape. To get away from it, Joo-Han focused on slicing kimchi, turning instant rice, and cracking eggs.
The kimchi fried rice was quickly completed, and as Joo-Han was about to put down the chopsticks, he realized that the house was too quiet.
“Eun-Soo. Let’s eat…”
Joo-Han, who went to the living room, stopped. Eun-Soo, who had sat on the sofa and seemed to slip to the side, was asleep.
What should he do? After a moment of contemplation, Joo-Han quietly sat down next to Eun-Soo’s head.
People watching now through the camera and those who would see through the screen later might not know, but it had been a long time since he saw the sleeping Eun-Soo.
He was still defenseless, still lovely.
What would he have done in the past?
If this moment continued, if it was a day that followed without us parting.
It felt like a parallel universe. It could really be somewhere in the universe. In a scene that continued without us parting, where that day he didn’t hear cold words from Eun-Soo or, even if he did, succeeded in holding on tightly, Kim Joo-Han was living.
He seemed so fortunate.
Joo-Han, who was still looking at Eun-Soo’s soft cheek, raised his hand.
That was the moment.
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…?
