The next day, Sunday.
Do Hyuk’s penthouse was filled with a desolate atmosphere reminiscent of the Siberian plains.
The previous day, Jae In had watched a movie with Gyumin and became concerned about Do Hyuk, so she returned early.
But what greeted her was a pile of tasks.
Since Saturday evening, Jae In had been glued to her computer, ordering three meals a day, and her eyes were tired.
Before she knew it, Do Hyuk had returned to his workaholic self, unable to be stopped.
He didn’t spare a glance at Jae In throughout the day, and he didn’t speak a word unless necessary.
Because Do Hyuk had changed 180 degrees in just a few days, Jae In was more than a little concerned.
But such thoughts only lasted a moment.
She had to focus on work without a single distraction.
“That’s it for today.”
It wasn’t until 11 PM that Do Hyuk finally stood up from his seat.
As Do Hyuk disappeared into his room, Jae In collapsed on the dining table as if exhausted.
“Wow, this relentless person! How can someone work without resting even for a moment? Is this some kind of revenge for playing yesterday?”
Jae In couldn’t relax properly because she was constantly aware of Do Hyuk’s intense focus on work, burning herself out.
After a moment of lying down, Jae In got up and tidied up the table.
Just as Jae In was about to move her heavy body and take a step forward.
“It’s broken.”
Do Hyuk suddenly appeared in front of Jae In, seemingly out of his room.
Startled, Jae In took a step back and asked.
“Wwhat’s wrong?”
“My bathroom’s water. It’s not coming out hot.”
“What? Suddenly?”
“It’s been acting strange for a few days, but now it’s not coming out at all.”
Do Hyuk frowned deeply as he replied.
This is a big problem.
Do Hyuk was someone who showered twice a day, in the morning and evening.
The water supply in the newly built luxurious penthouse had already malfunctioned.
“Wow, wow. Is it all showy on the outside but shoddy construction on the inside?”
Jae In said, tilting her head.
“I’ll have to call a repairman tomorrow. Will they come for a house call at night?”
“Then I’ll shower first.”
“Yes, please do.”
Jae In replied without much thought.
Do Hyuk walked briskly and entered the bathroom next to Jae In’s room.
Click.
The bathroom door closed, and soon the sound of water could be heard.
Wait a minute.
Jae In’s mind suddenly became clear.
“Do I have to use the same bathroom as the team leader?”
Until now, Do Hyuk had used the private bathroom attached to his room, while Jae In used the one outside.
Whenever Do Hyuk entered his room, he always appeared with neatly groomed hair.
So Jae In had never been aware of him taking a shower.
But now,
He was showering in the bathroom she always used.
Jae In became inexplicably nervous, even paying attention to each sound of water droplets.
“What, what is it? The owner of the house using his own bathroom, why do I care so much?”
Even so, she unknowingly swallowed dry saliva.
In the next moment, Jae In realized that she couldn’t take her eyes off the bathroom door and was startled.
“This won’t do! I should go to my room first.”
Afraid that the bathroom door might suddenly open, she tiptoed to the front of her room with catlike steps.
As she cautiously opened the door and was about to slip through the crack in the door.
Rrrrrrr. Rrrrrrr.
A cheerful tune flowed out from the pocket of her pants.
Startled, Jae In hurriedly answered the phone and went into the room.
“Hello?”
Jae In, are you okay? I was worried sick.
It was Yura. The timing was just right.
Thump, thump.
Thump, thump.
Jae In’s startled heart wouldn’t calm down easily.
“What happened?”
What’s with this sharp reaction? What were you doing to make you like this?
“Oh, what? I was just in my room.”
Really? I was having a good time with Team Leader Cha, but did I interrupt something?
Annoyed by Yura’s playful tone, Jae In let out a sigh.
“That’s not it, so stop saying weird things! Team Leader Cha is taking a shower right now.”
Gyaah! What is he doing after showering? I don’t know!
Grrr.
Yura giggled mischievously.
“Choi Yura, if you keep this up, I’ll hang up. Did you call to pry about Team Leader Cha?”
No, I just called because I was worried.
The laughter disappeared from Yura’s voice.
“What’s the matter?”
Actually, I went to meet Mr. Jihoon yesterday.
“Who is Jihoon? I’ve never heard that name before. Did you go on a blind date or something?”
Oh, didn’t I mention his name? He’s Jihoon from the rooftop apartment.
“What? Why did you go there again! Weren’t you going to clean your heart after hearing what I said?”
Well, at that time, I pretended to change my mind to test your feelings. But he’s a guy I like, so I wanted to meet him again, no matter what. Plus, I have to return the icebox while I’m at it.
I see.
Choi Yura wouldn’t give up so easily.
Jae In raised her head and asked.
“Well then, what did the unemployed Jihoon, who boasts of his refined and outstanding appearance at the age of thirtyfive, say?”
Well, the thing is, we didn’t meet.
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
