Surprised by his unexpected tender gaze and tone, Seo Ah avoided his gaze. Ha Joon buried his face in her neck again.
Startled, Seo Ah pushed him away again and shouted. She had screamed so much last night that her voice was hoarse.
“You didn’t shower! You sweated so much yesterday!”
Ha Joon met her eyes again. He couldn’t really forget. He had suffered holding himself back, how could he not feel her touch?
“Don’t you remember? I washed you.”
Already flushed, Seo Ah’s face turned even more crimson.
And she faintly remembered. The memory of being in his arms in the bathtub. Being so powerless, she just slumped in his arms. No wonder she felt fresh and clean.
“You’re in big trouble, woman. Anyone could carry you.”
My words. She really is a woman in big trouble. Seo Ah clenched her eyes shut and sighed deeply in her heart.
“I won’t do anything. Let’s just stay like this for a while.”
Ha Joon buried his face in her neck again and held her tight.
Seo Ah’s pupils shook violently. He was doing nothing but holding her, and his body was tensed up.
‘I’m fine……’
Seo Ah thought to herself. It was something she could never say sober.
She didn’t expect this in the morning, but she liked how he responded to her.
There was hope. She had hope that he might look at only her.
More than anything, she liked the feeling of being loved. She wanted to feel his love again.
But she couldn’t muster the courage. She never expected her tightly closed lips to part.
And eventually, he got up, and as the warm temperature that had been surrounding her body moved away, Seo Ah couldn’t hide her disappointment.
Having moved away from the bed, Ha Joon put on a robe, turned around again, and looked at her.
“Ah. I couldn’t wash your hair, can you do it?”
Seo Ah nodded shyly.
She liked his attention towards her.
She had a strange thought wishing that her injured finger would heal a little slower.
She could only hope that he wasn’t only gentle to the person in pain.
((()))
As before coming to Jeju Island, Ha Joon started washing Seo Ah.
He washed her face carefully and also washed her hair.
Ha Joon was a bit surprised as he thought she would say she was okay, but of course, he felt good.
Having washed her once, his touch was natural, and the time was shortened.
If anything had changed, it was that a faint smile lingered on the corners of their mouths.
Seo Ah still couldn’t meet Ha Joon’s eyes, but feeling his ticklish touch, she was smiling,
Ha Joon, seeing her like that, smiled even more.
“You can dry your hair by yourself, right?”
Seo Ah looked at him with wide eyes.
Ha Joon was curious about her reaction, so he asked, and her cute reaction made his heart flutter.
“Why, should I dry it for you?”
Seo Ah shook her head vigorously.
“Just for today. I’ll do it from tomorrow. Like you said……”
Seo Ah stammered, shocked by the term of address that slipped out.
When there were others, she called him ‘brother’, but when they were alone, she always drew the line by calling him ‘Mr. Kang Ha Joon’.
She didn’t want to reveal her feelings as she wasn’t sure of Ha Joon’s feelings and didn’t know him well.
If he had opened his heart to her, he might have fallen for her proud appearance. He could dislike how childish she seemed.
Thinking this, she felt she needed to steady her heart again.
“No, I mean…… Like Mr. Kang Ha Joon said, I should move as little as possible to recover quickly. If it gets worse unnecessarily, I have to wash again tomorrow, and that would be bothersome for Mr. Kang Ha Joon.”
However, Ha Joon found her pretense to be endearing. She seemed even more awkward while trying to act haughty with her innocent face.
He didn’t show it. He wanted to keep seeing her cute demeanor.
((()))
She dressed up to go to the horse riding club.
Changing her clothes, Seo Ah blushed at the persistent traces of him all over her body.
Her body was in a terrible state when she undressed in front of the mirror.
Despite the hot early summer weather requiring long pants, a cardigan, and even a scarf, she felt good.
Seo Ah finished preparing and started picking up the clothes scattered next to the bed.
While looking at those clothes, she thought that these must be the traces he left.
We don’t have any traces of sleeping together.
These were Ha Joon’s words. He had said this when she was curious about how he knew whether or not they had shared a bed during their alone time.
An undeniable, clear trace.
Then, the prepared Ha Joon approached.
“What are you doing?”
“Cleaning up……”
Seo Ah was flustered and blushing, although she didn’t cause this mess alone.
“The maids should see this. What will they do if you clean it up.”
“But still too much……”
It’s too much, Seo Ah mumbled the rest of her sentence, chewing on her lower lip.
“Let’s go quickly. We’ll be late.”
Seo Ah hesitated for a moment at Ha Joon, who was heading towards the entrance, then put down the clothes she was holding and followed him.
As soon as they left the room, Ha Joon grabbed Seo Ah’s hand.
Seo Ah’s heart tickled. Now that there were watchful eyes, he had to hold her hand. However, it felt different from before.
Could it be the feeling of closeness after their physical conversation? Seo Ah wished Ha Joon felt the same.
Soon, they rode the elevator down and headed towards the lobby,
and ran into Ji Young again.
“Huh? Are you leaving now?”
Seo Ah unknowingly gripped his hand tightly, and Ha Joon reassured her by gripping it back tightly.

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…?
