Thinking of her made him feel like his blood was drying up. She was not a woman who would come and say he did wrong unless he clung to her first.
A person who seemed like he would turn cold and leave without looking back, like someone who would just go on without turning around.
“… How pathetic.”
Taekyung closed his eyes for a moment. The repeated exhaustion swept over him.
However, he couldn’t sleep, and soon, Yoon Woo-yeon’s face, which had seeped into the black background screen like light, was vividly drawn in his mind.
Her smooth face, felt like a vivid sensation, lightly touched Taekyung’s feelings.
A slowpoke.
Muttering to himself in his mind, he raised the corners of his mouth and stood up from his seat.
Without hesitation, he called Woo-yeon.
While Woo-yeon was on her way home after finishing the news, news of her being attacked by someone quickly spread among the reporters.
As soon as she opened the door after parking, the assailant who had approached from behind attacked Woo-yeon swiftly with a sharp weapon.
Fortunately, she managed to dodge the crucial areas by moving her body to the side, but for someone who had to appear on live broadcast screens every day, it was a fatal blow.
The culprit, wearing a black mask, immediately fled at Woo-yeon’s scream, and she grabbed her attacked neck while directly calling 112.
Before the police who arrived could recognize her face, Woo-yeon collapsed.
Soon after, an ambulance arrived with loud noise, and Woo-yeon lost consciousness completely.
Woo-yeon regained consciousness the next day in the hospital room.
When she barely lifted her eyelids, feeling as heavy as iron, Song Director, Park PD, and Reporter Yeom were there, looking at her with concern.
It was disappointing.
Because the first person she saw was not Cha Taekyung. It was a ridiculous thought, but when the body is in pain, the heart weakens, so she blinked her eyes in solitude, thinking.
“… What happened?”
As she barely squeezed out her voice, the three people who were talking among themselves immediately approached Woo-yeon, concerned.
“Anchor Yoon, are you awake?”
It was Park PD. Woo-yeon nodded her head slowly.
“Yes.”
“Whew. I thought we sent one person. Don’t you remember? Last night, an assailant stabbed your neck in the parking lot, and you directly called 112.”
“……”
“Fortunately, it wasn’t severely torn, so we stitched it up and moved you here. It’s said you didn’t lose consciousness to the extent of bleeding profusely, but we’ve been all tensed up until now because Anchor Yoon didn’t wake up.”
“What about the news?”
At that remark, Song Director and Reporter Yeom, who were standing behind, simultaneously showed an expression.
Song Director frowned at the sight of Woo-yeon in a patient’s gown, then glanced at her with a soothing look as if to comfort her.
“Do you worry about the news now? Rest. We arranged for a substitute for a week.”
“Senior Hwang Woon-young?”
“Hwang Anchor is on a business trip this week and left it to Junior Jin Anchor.”
“As expected.”
When the thought crossed her mind that there was no one to snatch her bowl, Woo-yeon laughed softly.
Reporter Yeom, who was dripping eyes as if asking if she could laugh, also approached her and warmly covered her with a blanket.
“It was tough controlling the friendly reporters. I’ve repeatedly asked them not to blow things up too much in front of the police station. It won’t be prominently featured in the news or articles.”
“Thank you.”
“Thank you. The investigation is ongoing, so the culprit will be caught soon. Don’t worry and take care of your body for now. It’s time for Anchor Yoon to take a break, too.”
“… Yes.”
“By any chance, about getting caught?”
A place to get caught.
There were too many. Too many that it was a problem.
The first thing that came to her mind was Chairman Jo, but if he was going to tamper with her like this, he would have done it earlier.
Then what about Park Min-kwon?
They might have used someone to give a slight scare, thinking that the anchor dared to be arrogant and threaten.
The weapon the culprit used wasn’t a typical knife. It was an office utility knife, a bit larger than the one Woo-yeon usually used.
It didn’t seem like the intention was to kill or cause serious harm.
Literally, it seemed like they used someone to give some kind of warning. In that case, the list of suspects is growing.
Considering the people she had brought into her news so far, it wasn’t uncommon to experience not just threats but actual threats.
Woo-yeon shook her head.
“I don’t know.”
“Well, it’s understandable. Recently, our side might have leaked information about Minister Shin and the prosecution going back and forth. Even if that’s not the case, anchors like Kang or Hwang have had incidents like this before. Don’t be too scared.”
“Yes.”
“Oh, by the way, Representative Cha Taekyung is outside.”
“…”
“He called Anchor Yoon several times last night. As soon as he heard the news that Anchor Yoon had collapsed, he rushed to the hospital. I was nearby, so I came first, but he almost came in at the same time?”
After that, Director Song and PD Park took turns lecturing, worrying, discussing future plans, and the changed broadcast schedule.
Even though she knew it shouldn’t be, Woo-yeon listened to all of their words with her earlobes.
Since hearing that Taekyung was outside, Woo-yeon had been thinking of a sitcom-like situation all along.
She wanted to see herself in the mirror. Suddenly, she felt the desire to confirm with her own eyes what she looked like now.
Eventually, unable to resist, Woo-yeon gestured to Reporter Yeom, the most familiar of the three.
“Is my appearance a mess right now by any chance?”
“Huh?”
“My face… is it a mess?”
Smiling quietly, he went out with Director Song and PD Park.
“We’ll grab a bite and come back. We’ve been too worried about Anchor Yoon that we haven’t eaten anything until now.”
“Yes.”
“You’re pretty.”
“…”
“And other people will think the same.”
With a playful smile, he went out. After the three people disappeared, the hospital room fell into a quiet silence.
Woo-yeon naturally touched the injured area around her neck. Thanks to the medical staff’s treatment, it didn’t hurt much.
Swallowing saliva, she waited.
She probably knew he would come in.
“…Phew.”
At the end of a dry sigh, she looked at the hospital room door. Now it was his turn to come in.
Knock, knock.
Along with a knock, a very familiar face came into the room.
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.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
