In fact, Taejun was the one who drank the most today. Although he wasn’t intoxicated, his mind felt complicated, making him a bit dizzy.
It seemed like he had made her very angry.
“Sorry.”
“…….”
“I’m not mad at Han Soeun.”
Taejun, who barely comforted his feelings, apologized.
Today, Taejun learned about Yang Heeuk visiting the company yesterday. Not only that, he came to the sales floor, approached her with a ticket, and made it impossible for Soeun to avoid him. While he was wandering around to dig into the past, such an incident happened to Soeun. The person who defended her was Supervisor Jang Eunpyo.
Today, after hearing that, unable to suppress his anger, Soeun made him drink.
Soeun, who was suffering from embarrassment, turned her head and stared at him.
“You must have been surprised, too. I’m sorry for getting mad.”
Taejun’s apology was unexpectedly sweet.
Even though it seemed like it would get worse, saying sorry felt like an unexpected gift. It was truly unfamiliar for Soeun.
“Uh… I’m okay. It was nothing, really.”
To reassure him, Soeun gave a calm response. But he didn’t accept it.
“You can be honest. Go on.”
“…….”
“It’s okay not to be okay.”
The muffled voice penetrated directly into Soeun’s heart. It was not a demand or request to speak more honestly but a comfort that touched her difficult life. A small word created ripples in her heart.
I like this person too much.
Suddenly, the overflowing feelings that seemed to have become unbearable.
I always thought my heart was poor, but now I have overflowing emotions.
Taejun smoothly entered Soeun’s house. It wasn’t even a question like ‘May I come in?’ but ‘I’ll go in.’ He was so assertive that Soeun thought he wanted something, but all he wanted was a blanket. On the narrow floor of her one-room apartment, he laid out a folded blanket and settled down. Watching him sit quietly on the floor after spreading the blanket, Soeun wrinkled her nose.
Sitting on the floor where the blanket was spread, Taejun, who had checked if Soeun had washed well, brushed her teeth, changed her clothes, and lay down on the bed, went to wash up and came back to lie down on the floor.
“Go to sleep quickly.”
“Director, are you really going to sleep here?”
“Yeah.”
Today, just like yesterday, he was going to sleep here. Soeun couldn’t understand why he wanted to stay in this cramped one-room for two nights, leaving that spacious house behind.
And now, is he intentionally doing this to make me uncomfortable? Why doesn’t he come up to the bed and lie down? Is this a sign to politely tell me to come down to the floor?
Even in the midst of a belated sense of intoxication, it was truly nerve-wracking. It seemed impossible to fall asleep. Soeun got up from the bed.
“You sleep here, Director.”
“It’s okay. Sleep comfortably.”
“How can I sleep comfortably if you’re going to sleep like this?”
“Sleep well. It’s fine.”
The alcohol brought out Soeun’s courage.
“You almost chased me away.”
Taejun, who was lying neatly, let out a deep sigh and got up from his place to climb onto the bed.
“Is it okay now? Do you feel a bit better?”
The bed was small, so Taejun had to hug Soeun tightly. When the situation became similar to yesterday, Soeun, as if relieved, closed her eyes.
“Yes. A little better.”
Taejun grumbled.
“Ah, it’s really cramped.”
“Sorry. It’s because I don’t have money.”
“Yeah. You’ll keep feeling sorry like that today.”
I’m enduring this with Buddha’s patience. Understand a bit.
Taejun decided to spend the night in this small house purely because he was worried about her health. Since her body shouldn’t drink alcohol, consuming the equivalent of two glasses of soju straight wasn’t going to leave her in good condition. She thought tonight, she would watch over her. If her condition didn’t improve, she planned to take her to the hospital.
With such a strong sense of duty, he endured this night. However, from within the arms that embraced her, a trembling excitement could be felt.
“Why are you smiling?”
Why are you smiling as if causing anxiety for Buddha’s heart?
After laughing for a while, Soeun opened her mouth.
“I didn’t have a dream or anything. I suddenly thought I want to make a lot of money now.”
Her voice was as warm as her body temperature.
“I wanted to move to a bigger house and buy a larger bed.”
“…….”
“Director, I like it.”
A confession that burst out naturally because she couldn’t control her overflowing emotions.
A voice that flowed smoothly like unraveling yarn enveloped him. That small voice seemed like it could cover him instead of the blanket.
“I don’t think I’ve ever liked anyone this much.”
Even though the alcohol had loosened her up, steadily and rhythmically, she reminded Taejun of what kind of existence he was to her. A confession he hadn’t expected caused Taejun’s throat to tighten. Warm heat spread from head to toe.
“This feeling seems to make a person very strong. A feeling that you can do anything, a feeling that you want to give everything.”
“…….”
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…?
