Ji Yeon clapped her hands excitedly as she spoke, looking so adorable that Kang Hyun impulsively pulled her face towards him for a kiss.
“Ah, too cute… I couldn’t help myself…”
Kang Hyun, somewhat embarrassed by his own actions, found Ji Yeon’s reaction equally adorable.
Unbeknownst to them, they were both continuously charmed by each other’s cuteness and loveliness.
Like a cuteness ping-pong match.
“Kang Hyun.”
“Yes…?”
Ji Yeon called out, and Kang Hyun looked at her with soft eyes, to which she grinned and said,
“Kang Hyun might not know, but I’m like a black hole filled with cuteness energy. I keep sending out frequencies to draw Lee Kang Hyun into this black hole. If you lose focus even for a moment, you’ll be pulled in and drown in my cuteness, unable to escape. So, you always have to be careful.”
While hearing her words, Kang Hyun found himself staring, mesmerized by her appearance.
Peach-like cheeks flushed pink.
Eyes blinking as they locked with Kang Hyun’s.
Small lips, not wearing any makeup but shining bright red, chattering playfully – he couldn’t take his eyes off her.
‘Ha… Am I in for a pre-dawn workout today?’
Overwhelmed by Eun Ji Yeon’s overflowing cuteness, Kang Hyun faced a night of dilemma, unable to contain his burgeoning passion.
Bright and sunny, a perfect Saturday filled with sunlight.
Eagerly anticipating today’s date, Ji Yeon woke up early, before her alarm even rang, a smile naturally spreading across her face.
It felt like the excitement of a child on the eve of a visit to an amusement park.
Desiring to look even a bit prettier than usual, she carefully did her makeup and styled her hair, then dressed in a cute, sky-blue dress printed with a charming pattern.
She found her reflection quite lovely, her lips curling into a smile.
“I hope Kang Hyun finds me pretty.”
After getting ready, she went to Kang Hyun’s car in the parking lot. Kang Hyun was already there waiting.
“Did you wait long? I came out right on time.”
“You arrived just on time. I just came down too.”
“That’s good.”
But Kang Hyun looked slightly more tired than usual.
Ji Yeon was concerned, as Kang Hyun, despite often working late, always looked bright and energetic.
“You look a bit tired, Kang Hyun. Are you okay?”
“Ah… I’m okay. I did some intense exercise early this morning, so I might appear tired.”
“Did you go to exercise after we parted last night? Late at night? Don’t you think you’re too fond of exercising?”
It seemed extreme to work out late at night, even if it was Friday.
“Well, there were some things yesterday, so I had to exercise.”
“Anyway, I have to appreciate your love for exercise. Exercise is good for health, but make sure to rest as well.”
Ji Yeon, looking concerned, reached out to stroke his face.
‘I wish I could, Ji Yeon.’
A fleeting expression of helplessness appeared on Kang Hyun’s face before vanishing.
They soon arrived at the studio where Chef Steve’s one-day class was held, located in Bundang. The studio, on the second floor of a three-story building, was equipped with tables and various cooking tools for the eight groups of participants.
“It’s been a long time since I’ve come to learn cooking. This is going to be so much fun.”
Ji Yeon expressed her genuine excitement, making Kang Hyun internally commend himself for suggesting this date.
“Kang Hyun! Long time no see.”
Chef Steve, who was chatting with other members inside the studio, noticed Kang Hyun and approached to greet them.
“It’s been a while, Steve. How have you been?”
“I’ve been keeping busy.”
“Thanks for making room for us today. My girlfriend was so happy about the opportunity to learn from you. Ah, this is my girlfriend.”
As Kang Hyun introduced her, Ji Yeon’s face turned slightly rosy.
“Oh! Kang Hyun’s girlfriend? Nice to meet you, I’m Steve.”
Chef Steve reached out for a handshake, greeting Ji Yeon.
“Nice to meet you, Chef. I’m Eun Ji Yeon. I’m really looking forward to your class. I’ll learn a lot today.”
“I’ll make sure the class is as exciting as you expect, Ji Yeon. You might want to attend my other classes too after today.”
Steve confidently responded with a wink.
After exchanging greetings, he assigned Ji Yeon and Kang Hyun seats at the front and left to greet the other members.
“Steve is handsome, isn’t he? Good-looking and charming, he’s popular among the ladies.”
“Ah… Yes. Well…”
Ji Yeon remembered Steve’s slightly flirtatious wink and laughed awkwardly.
“One member has yet to arrive, but since it’s time, we’ll start the cooking class.”
About 10 minutes later, Steve called everyone’s attention to start the cooking class.
“In today’s cooking class, we will prepare dishes based on three themes. The first theme involves making ‘ssam bap’ (Korean rice wraps) using various ingredients, along with a suitable sauce. We’ll use new ingredients, different from what you might already know, so please watch carefully and follow along.”
Ji Yeon’s eyes sparkled with interest at Steve’s explanation, and Kang Hyun watched her fondly.
There were a total of 5 teams in the one-day class, all of them couples.
Like Ji Yeon and Kang Hyun, it seemed they had come for a couple’s date.
“Now, let’s start cutting the ingredients for the first dish, ‘ssam bap’, I just mentioned. Since each of you is in pairs, please share the preparation of the ingredients.”
Steve showed the ingredients to be used and explained.
It was then that someone entered through a side door.
“Sorry I’m late, Steve. The traffic was terrible.”
“Long time no see. We just started the class, so you can take a seat in the back and start right away. I’ll come over to explain further.”
This was the one member Steve mentioned who hadn’t arrived yet.
After greeting Steve and turning around, the latecomer’s eyes met Ji Yeon’s, who had just looked up.
The person who had just entered the studio was none other than Jung Se Ah.
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…?
