He had sacrificed himself for decades, but seeing him not leaving behind a single comfortable house under his name despite having abundant money, she felt overwhelmed with resentment.
And the fact that he was meeting other young women behind her back, which she learned through Kim Ji-won’s mistress lawsuit, even broadcasted, brought a sense of betrayal.
If not for her son Minu, she might have left when this situation unfolded.
Except for her son Minu, who conspired against the smart kid that caused this situation, it was unknown. But in a year, or if she was lucky, even sooner, when Minu comes out, she had to make a leap again based on the wealth that Cha Seung-jo had hidden.
Until then, it would be better to stay with Cha Seung-jo.
There seemed to be some misunderstanding that caused a bit of trouble, but she believed that when Minu came out, everything would be resolved.
She was dreaming such a futile dream.
Ji-yeon, will you go on a date with me this Saturday?
Talking with Kang Hyun, Jiyeon couldn’t help but smile at his sudden question.
“Um… I’m a bit busy. I have a lot going on these days. You know Kang Hyun, I’m a busy woman.”
In response to Jiyeon’s answer, Kang Hyun’s laughter could be heard.
Yes, I know. So, please spare a little of precious Jiyeon’s time for me. Let’s meet on Saturday. Please.
“Um… I gave in because it’s Kang Hyun, whom I like. Alright, I’ll make some time for you on Saturday. Got it? Specially, you know?”
Jiyeon’s laughter sounded refreshing as if she enjoyed playing around.
“Why do you ask that? Of course, I was planning to meet Kang Hyun on the weekend.”
Thank you. You were planning to meet me, of course… The more I hear, the more enjoyable it gets. Thank you.
“I’m thankful too, Kang Hyun. But what’s going on this Saturday?”
Well, I’m going to eat something really delicious in the evening. So, don’t eat too much for lunch.
“Oh, I’m looking forward to it. Is Kang Hyun talking like this because I’m here?”
You can look forward to it. Then let’s meet at 5 p.m. on Saturday. Before that, I’ll work hard to spend a happy weekend with Jiyeon.
“Are you late again today? I’m worried because it seems like you’re working overtime every day. It looks like you’re doing all the work there alone, Kang Hyun.”
Kang Hyun couldn’t help but smile at Jiyeon’s cute concern about her boyfriend.
I might be going in again late tonight, so I might not see your face. See you on Saturday.
“Got it. Hang in there, Kang Hyun.”
Jiyeon made a kissing sound on the phone and hung up.
On the Saturday she promised to meet Kang Hyun, Jiyeon paid a little more attention to her appearance, as it had been a long time since they went on a date outside.
Lately, they had been meeting briefly at Kang Hyun’s or Jiyeon’s house or meeting late at night, so going out together was really rare.
As they only met at home, there was no need for makeup or dressing up, and they were both used to meeting each other comfortably.
Jiyeon, who wanted to look prettier for her boyfriend, spent some time carefully doing her hair and makeup, wearing her favorite beautiful dress.
Just before leaving in Kang Hyun’s car, she did a final check in front of the full-length mirror.
In the mirror, her naturally radiant and beautiful self, receiving much love, was reflected.
Even to herself, her lively appearance looked pretty.
“Good, right?”
She was happy.
These moments of continuing happy meetings with someone who cherished her.
It was truly so happy.
At the agreed-upon time to meet, Kang Hyun discovered Jiyeon coming towards the parked car and smiled at how wonderful she looked.
He was undoubtedly impressive and handsome, but today, he looked even more impressive and beautiful.
A luxurious navy suit perfectly embraced his body, and his beautiful face seemed even more vibrant and radiant than usual.
“You look so handsome today. You’re always handsome, but today is especially so!”
“Really? Thank you. It was worth the effort.”
Kang Hyun kissed Jiyeon’s cheek briefly, making her smile with joy.
Soon, as if sliding away, they left the parking lot.
After about a 40-minute drive, they arrived at a quite famous place.
This 50-story building utilized its highest floor entirely as a restaurant, with transparent glass on all sides.
Because of this, it was renowned for its beautiful city view visible in 360 degrees, especially the window seats offering a panoramic view were always hard to reserve.
“I’ve always wanted to come here. When did you make a reservation, Kang Hyun? My friend tried to book here but gave up because she had to wait for over a month.”
“I was lucky. Fortunately, I could have a pleasant date with Jiyeon.”
As they entered the restaurant, Jiyeon’s eyes widened at the stunning views in every direction.
The grand piano placed in the center and beautiful planters added to the atmosphere of the elegant restaurant.
Guided to seats with a great view of the night scenery and the piano, Jiyeon felt even more delighted.
“We seem to be really lucky. This table seems to have the best view in the whole restaurant.”
“Yes, Jiyeon seems to be lucky.”
Kang Hyun answered, looking at Jiyeon with an affectionate gaze as she spoke charmingly.
“I received an urgent call, so I’ll answer it and be back in a moment. Please wait a bit.”
“Yes, take your time.”
As Kang Hyun got up from his seat, Jiyeon looked at the menus in front of her.
After a while, when the gentle melody of the piano reached her ears, Jiyeon naturally lifted her head, and her eyes widened.
The person sitting at the piano was none other than Kang Hyun.
He took off his jacket and placed it beside him before starting to play the piano again.
Jiyeon learned for the first time today that Kang Hyun could play the piano, and his performance was remarkably skillful.
“Really, this Kang Hyun… he makes me fall for him several times, truly.”
Jiyeon murmured to herself as she watched Kang Hyun playing the piano without realizing it.
After the piano performance, many people inside the restaurant applauded.
Kang Hyun spoke into the standing microphone in front of him.
“Today is a very important and nerve-wracking day for me. I’m going to propose to my girlfriend. Before proposing, I need to earn some points. Will you help me? Even if it’s awkward, please listen to my performance a little longer.”
With these words, Kang Hyun started playing another piece.
Jiyeon’s eyes widened even more upon hearing his request.
In no time, Kang Hyun, who had finished the sweet performance, slowly stood up and approached Jiyeon.
Many eyes inside the restaurant followed Kang Hyun’s movements.
As Kang Hyun came to Jiyeon with a bouquet of flowers and a ring he had prepared in advance, the attention in the restaurant intensified.
“I don’t know when it started. I’ve come to love you so much, Jiyeon. Lately, I dream of being with you forever. Will you be with me?”
As Kang Hyun spoke, cries of “How wonderful!” and “Say yes to the proposal!” echoed from the people around.
As if time had stopped, Jiyeon gazed at Kang Hyun without moving, and tears streamed down her cheeks.
“I was planning to propose to Kang Hyun… Huh, what do I do now that he did it first?”
Kang Hyun gently laughed at Jiyeon’s words and lightly kissed her forehead.
Soon, Jiyeon nodded her head and softly replied, “I love you too, Kang Hyun.”
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.
