Even though it was just a seat, Ojonghyuk couldn’t hold back his temper every time he was put at a disadvantage. No matter how much the lawyer tried to stop him, he couldn’t stop the unbridled profanity. Such an outrageous person had never been seen before.
“Did you just say you received an investment from Executive Kim Yujun?”
“W-Well, not like that.”
In the end, Ojonghyuk ended up spouting remarks that would harm Kim Yujun.
“It’s not that Executive Kim Yujun did it. Please cancel, no, delete that statement!”
Ojonghyuk, crossing his arms, seemed on the verge of overturning the desk.
Whether he liked it or not, Jiho remained expressionless, not even blinking.
“Team leader, please ensure that the suspect’s statement about deletion is recorded without omission.”
With an even tone, Jiho succinctly controlled the situation.
“When people are nervous, they can make mistakes or something like that.”
“We’ll include additional opinions during the verification of the attorney and the statement.”
“No, no. Ugh, why is a person so inflexible.”
“Next! Let’s move on to the TJ Pictures case.”
It seemed like an intricately woven net layered one over the other. Jiho, with his characteristic dedication, relentlessly pressed Ojonghyuk.
“Rustle, rustle, tap, tap, thump, thump―.”
A noisy sound filled Lajin’s dressing room.
Despite the exhaustion after finishing the shoot, Lajin was packing clothes into a large box lined with plastic.
“Unnie, should we only pack bags up to the second row?”
“Oh. I won’t need to go out dressed up for a while, just coming and going to the set.”
“By the way, did you know? If the inspector has time, we could go on a date somewhere nice?”
At Ha-eun’s suggestion of adding one more dress, the two burst into laughter. Then Crystal carefully placed a clutch bag studded with crystals inside.
Treating her like a daughter managing a household, Ha-eun separated bags and clothes. She didn’t do anything carelessly, precisely picking what was needed right away and essential items to bring.
“Oh! While we’re at it, let’s pack for the trip abroad.”
“Did you pack your luggage?”
“Of course! Since Taehyung’s gone, I’ll go on an overseas shoot with unnie.”
Ha-eun, spreading her arms toward the sky, shouted, “Exciting, exciting.”
Wasn’t it said that people couldn’t see a step ahead?
It was good that Taehyung disappeared, but it was uncomfortable when Myungjin’s bodyguard appeared. Surprisingly, the bodyguard wasn’t bad either. The bodyguard didn’t cross lines like a manager or behave annoyingly.
Moreover, he was so taciturn that if Lajin or Ha-eun didn’t talk to him, he wouldn’t say a word all day.
“The teddy bear bodyguard.”
“You said it was like a psycho who wouldn’t let me in. Why did he become a teddy bear?”
Lajin teased Ha-eun with a smirk.
“Although he’s big, it’s cute how shy he is. Like a chubby teddy bear.”
“Yet, he doesn’t eat the cookies I give. He only eats what you give.”
Whether he had feelings for Ha-eun or had heard something from Kim Yujun, the bodyguard didn’t mix words with Lajin.
“How should I tease him? A double agent?”
Ha-eun seemed to be interested in the sturdy bodyguard. She wanted to support her sister’s love, but given the situation, she couldn’t easily say it was good.
“How about watching a bit more?”
“Then. I’ll watch, I’ll watch. It’s a bit regrettable that he’s a Myungjin employee.”
Lajin patted Ha-eun’s shoulder as she stumbled over her words with embarrassment. If Ha-eun had a good relationship, whether he was Myungjin’s employee or not, she could somehow meet him.
“Ha. But how do we move all this luggage? We can’t call anyone.”
“Unnie, how about moving little by little from today?”
“Today?”
“Look, we have less time than we thought.”
Ha-eun’s words made sense.
Friday had a shoot in the morning, and in the afternoon, they had to stop by their mother’s hospital. Even if they moved tomorrow, they couldn’t do everything at once. So, moving some things today wasn’t a bad idea.
“He said he registered so that the inspector could enter. Just tell him we’re going. It’s that simple.”
Lajin glanced at the clock.
“It’s already past midnight. Is it okay?”
“He said you’re working overtime every day anyway.”
That’s true, but at this late hour? Lajin alternated between looking at the box of clothes and the clock.
“If we go now, we won’t encounter anyone.”
“But still…”
“Let’s just quickly drop off the luggage. By the way, I’ll only go to the entrance. Unnie, go inside alone.”
Ha-eun firmly set the plan in motion, saying that Prosecutor Kang Jiho was still difficult to deal with even before their departure.
“Then, should we bring two cheap boxes and one suitcase now?”
When Lajin cautiously sought agreement, Ha-eun quickly taped up the boxes.
“Let the prosecutor know we’re leaving now.”
“Shall I send a message like, ‘Can I come to drop off the luggage?'”
“No. ‘I’m going home now.’ Short and clear.”
The decision was swift, and the actions were even faster.
The two of them grunted as they loaded a box only as tall as their torsos and immediately set off for Jiho’s house.
The apartment complex, rumored for its strict security.
Whether it was because she lived with Jiho or because his house had become closer, Lajin grabbed and let go of the seatbelt frantically.
“Closer than I thought. Uh, nervous.”
“But we’re going to live together now. ‘This is my home.’ You have to get used to it.”
“True?”
“Of course. Unnie, I’ll just help with the luggage and leave right away.”
Lajin, dressed in a hat and mask, touched the card key in her hand. Lajin, dressed in a hat and mask, touched the card key in her hand. The cautious Lajin, armed with a hat and mask, touched the card against the parking gate. Then, the gate smoothly lifted.
The two parked in the designated spot, going back and forth twice to stack the boxes in front of the entrance.
“Take a look at the house, come slowly.”
As Lajin reached for his home’s doorknob, Ha-eun disappeared like she was fleeing. With trembling fingertips, Lajin pressed the password slowly.
With a clink, the sound of the door unlocking, she placed the large box against the door.
Already well past midnight.
Trying to make as little noise as possible, she pushed items into the foyer.
“Phew. All done.”
Carefully closing the door, Lajin sneakily entered the house.
“Why is the house so nice… huh?”
A faint light emanated from somewhere in the dark house. Without turning on the living room light, Lajin stood in front of the white door, following that light.
“Mr. Jiho… Did you already come?”
Whispering his name softly, she gently knocked on the door.
“Did he leave the light on and go out?”
Opening the door and entering, the moment she did, she found a person collapsed in the rippling bathtub.
“Mr. Jiho!”
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…?
