The lady who heard Hajun’s words spoke up.
“Ah, you’re the one who called? I said not to close down, and even if you do, make sure to contact us.”
“Yes. My wife suddenly got pregnant, and because it’s twins, I couldn’t move hastily.”
“Twins? Congratulations! You really need to be careful with twins!”
When the shop owner looked at Seoa and spoke, tears burst out that Seoa had been holding back.
“Sob… How have you been, ma’am? I went almost every day during my three years of middle school, even during vacations, but suddenly, I went to study abroad, so I couldn’t even say goodbye… Sob, I missed you!”
Hajun and Seokhoon, who hadn’t expected Seoa to cry, were very confused.
Although the shop owner hadn’t recognized Seoa, who had changed since childhood, she hugged Seoa tightly and patted her back.
“Ah, my. I’m getting older, and students all look similar, so I might not remember well. Still, thank you. I appreciate you remembering and finding me.”
“Oh, it’s okay. I remember. I was worried you quit because you weren’t feeling well, but it’s good to see you looking healthy.”
“Then! Stay healthy! You’re not alone, so stop crying and sit down. I wonder if the tteokbokki tastes the same.”
Hajun wiped Seoa’s tears and comforted her while patting her back.
“Thank you, dear.”
“Secretary Kim found it for you.”
“Thank you, Secretary Kim.”
“No, it’s not a big deal. I just did what the director asked.”
Amidst the warm atmosphere, the ordered dishes arrived.
“We’ll enjoy it!”
Seoa cheerfully picked up a piece of tteokbokki and, after taking a bite, widened her eyes, swinging her foot.
“Heuk! It tastes just like when I was young!”
“Ah, thankfully. Eat a lot.”
Seeing Seoa enjoying her favorite dish, Hajun and Seokhoon couldn’t hide their pride.
Following milmyeon and tteokbokki, they had pork soup, seed hotteok, toast, hotdogs, and even grilled clams for dinner.
It was truly a gourmet tour. If it weren’t for Chaddeok and Kongddeok, they wouldn’t have been able to finish even over two days.
Everything was great, but why couldn’t they make reservations for anything? It felt like all they did was wait and eat.
They decided to leave the untried raw fish and sightseeing for tomorrow and headed to the hotel.
“Dear… I’m tired. Can you bathe me?”
Hajun embraced her, putting his arms around her neck, and gently touched her cheek with his lips.
“Can’t be. Of course, I’ll do it. I was going to bathe you anyway.”
Hajun picked her up and headed for the bathroom.
Then, as usual, he undressed her skillfully and gave her a thorough bath.
“Aren’t you going to bathe, dear?”
Since Seoa had been weak due to morning sickness after getting pregnant, Hajun often bathed her. The only difference from before pregnancy was that he bathed Seoa first, then himself separately.
“You shouldn’t catch a cold, dear. Let’s bathe quickly and go out. Your clothes are soaked.”
“If you bathe quickly, dear, we can go out together. Your clothes are soaked too.”
When Seoa raised Hajun’s wet shirt, he felt dizzy.
But he had to snap out of it. He immediately stopped her hand, lowering the half-raised shirt.
“No, it’s not allowed.”
Seoa pouted her lips.
Actually, not long ago, the doctor had said that it was okay to cautiously have a marital relationship, and since then, Seoa had been trying every day. However, Hajun had sternly refused each time.
He had decided when he heard from the doctor that even a slight risk could endanger Seoa, and he had made up his mind.
Until the twins safely entered the world, until there was no danger to Seoa, he would endure. He would not be swayed by any temptation.
“The doctor said it’s okay…”
“There could be unforeseen circumstances.”
“…Okay.”
As Seoa turned to leave, Hajun let out a deep sigh. She must have seen her excited body, thinking something was wrong. He was really fine, though.
After a while, Hajun, who finished showering, came to the bedroom.
However, Seoa was wearing the blanket inside out.
Hajun’s mind became complicated at this unexpected behavior.
Soon, sitting on the bed and trying to pull the blanket, Seoa tightly grabbed and didn’t let go.
Unexpected words leaked out from the blanket, and Hajun’s eyes widened.
“Do I not look like a woman now? Because my belly is showing and I gained weight?”
“W-what is that…”
“Enough! I didn’t want to do it because I was tired!”
Now, Seoa is holding back the laughter trying to come out from the blanket.
Hajun knows how much he loves her, but that’s why it’s painful to love him. However, she had no choice but to do this; otherwise, he would never hug her like this.
While Seoa was thinking about whether to say more provocative words, a warm warmth enveloped her whole body.
“It’s not that. I’m afraid you’ll be in danger. What if something happens to you because of me…”
Seoa, who wanted to provoke him more, succumbed to his tender voice. Eventually, she slightly lowered the blanket, revealing only her eyes and puckering her lips.
“I understand. It was a joke…”
“…”
Hajun lost words. Fortunately, she knew his feelings. But wasn’t the joke too much?
“Are you… angry?”
Seoa, with half-hidden eyes, looked at him cautiously, ready to flip the blanket again.
“I’m angry. Even if you say I don’t look like a woman. How can you say that after seeing my body?”
“…I mean, with this body, why endure.”
When Seoa poked him with her knee, Hajun trembled all over.
“Today might be the real last day…”
“…”
As she continued to tease him, Hajun’s gaze gradually lost strength.
“If you keep doing this…”
“…”
Hajun, as if possessed, approached her.
“I might really get upset…”
Seoa’s words lingered in Hajun’s mouth.
He couldn’t make her genuinely upset. Even if Seoa said it was a joke, he must have thought about it at least once, if not just for a moment.
To Hajun, Seoa was beautiful no matter how much weight she gained, and she was the only woman in his life. Hajun started to show, with his whole body, how much he still loved her and that his feelings hadn’t changed.
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…?
