Many people were between them, but the eyes never lost sight of her. Even if they wanted to, they couldn’t. Though chasing her, it seemed as if they had become a deer tightly caught in a snare. It was a feeling never felt before.
Only when the train finally blocked the view did Idrish take a quick breath. Only then did he realize that he hadn’t been breathing for a while. The afterimage of Cecilia’s face remained in his eyes. The red hair waving like blooming flowers.
The red stain left on the white paper did not easily erase.
Was this also because of the curse?
Idrish touched his chest. The pain was certainly less. Not only that, but when she was around, all negative sensations seemed to dull.
And the more that happened, the more the longing to be with Cecilia grew.
Not just 1 hour, but 2 hours, 3 hours……. If possible, he wanted her by his side all the time.
It must be because of the curse, indeed.
“Nightshade.”
At the low, muffled voice, Cecilia stopped trying to put a ribbon in her hair and looked back at him. As if to ask why, her lips rounded.
“Why do you tie your hair?”
At the unexpected question, Cecilia’s head tilted to the side.
“Why? Is it better to leave it untied?”
“Yeah.”
“You mean yeah? Well. I also prefer my hair untied. Especially when the wind rustles my hair, it feels good. But I have no choice. It’s too hot.”
Her eyes squinted in irritation but brightened again quickly.
Idrish, who was insensitive to emotions, found her expressive face fascinating.
Are all hedgehogs like that? Or are all other people naturally like that?
He had never observed others so closely and in such detail, so he didn’t know.
“Are you done?”
Cecilia turned her head and looked straight at Idrish. Her eyes sparkled like a chubby autumn night.
He didn’t know what she was referring to as being done, so Idrish remained still.
“Oh, yeah, this. The ribbon. Is it pretty?”
A white ribbon had appeared where she had gathered her red hair into one place.
He couldn’t even see such a thing.
“Yeah.”
“Good. So you’re coming with me to tend to the grapevines later, as we agreed?”
Cecilia unilaterally confirmed the agreement. The corner of Idrish’s mouth rose.
“No, I won’t go.”
“Ah, why!”
Cecilia furrowed her brow. Idrish unintentionally chuckled.
(This is a time separator.)
“You say I should tear this leaf off? Cecilia, why must you do this? The grapevine will hurt! It’s speaking to me right now, it hurts, hurts! Leave it alone!”
“Shut up. Zeros. The vine told me it feels more stuffy now. Quickly pluck these unnecessary leaves.”
제로스’s mouth spat out a curse. He was the person who was in charge of butler duties at the mansion. He was also the character who had tried to put me in a pot when I was first caught.
“Later, I’ll give 제로스 some grapes too. Aren’t you tired of eating meat all the time even though you’re not a tiger? Don’t you want to eat fresh and sweet grapes?”
“That’s true, but I am a highquality laborer, too…….”
“Yes, managing grapevines requires a high level of skill. A highquality laborer like 제로스 must do it. Now, close your mouth and move your hands quickly. We must pick off even these disappointing grapes. That way, the nutrients concentrate on one side, and sweet and firm grapes are born.”
“How do you know about such things, Cecilia?”
“I am originally knowledgeable.”
There was a documentary maniac lady in the same ward, you see. She really liked occupational documentaries…. It was really tiresome.
I briefly recalled the past and turned my head to look at Mirai.
Unlike 제로스, who complained, she was picking grapes with a hand motion much faster than mine.
“Mirai is better than me! You really do a great job.”
I sent her a double thumbsup with a gentle smile. Mirai laughed quietly.
“Learn from 제로스. If the three of us want to finish today, we need to work harder.”
“Why does it have to be the three of us…….”
“Well, it looks like everyone else is busy.”
I had tried to gather all the idlelooking staff around the mansion, but compared to the size of the mansion, there were few servants, so everyone was busy.
I had also offered to help with picking grape leaves to Idlish who looked free, but naturally, I was refused.
Yes, the refusal was what I expected. But the attitude afterwards was even more absurd.
“Idlish! If you’re going to watch, come help!”
He even spread out a tea table on the other side and enjoyed tea while watching us work elegantly.
Ah, so annoying. Why are you watching?
My face is already red and sweaty, so it’s embarrassing.
I took a handkerchief from my pocket and patted my forehead.
“I’m busy.”
“Is that person for real?”
I tossed the garden scissors and stomped over to Idlish.
“Then later, not a single grape, or even the leftovers, I won’t give you any!”
“I don’t like grapes.”
“What about grape jam? Drying grapes to put in bread, and candy with sugar syrup?”
“I don’t need it, you eat the mushroom…. But what is that?”
Idlish slowly stood up. His large frame quickly cast a shadow over me.
It would be nice if he could pick the grape leaves above with that tall height. We have to go up the ladder!
He snatched the handkerchief from my hand.
“Why is this with you?”
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…?
