The living room filled with the warmth of the two.
Geon looked at Yeonwoo with a tender gaze that he had never shown before.
“Now, you’ve stopped crying.”
Geon’s smile was so charming that Yeonwoo’s face turned red as if it were about to burst.
He needed to say something, but his mind was blank like a blank sheet of paper, and he couldn’t say anything.
‘Calm down, calm down…’
Flustered, Yeonwoo bowed his head deeply. Then, to find his composure, he took a deep breath.
Although Yeonwoo’s flushed face began to calm down, his pounding heart remained the same.
He thought that the smile of an uncommon handsome man could make one’s heart tremble.
However, Geon’s gaze was too affectionate, and Yeonwoo’s heart didn’t show any signs of settling down.
Although Geon had seen Geon’s smiling face a few times before, this was the first time he had seen such an exquisite smile that made his heart tremble.
Geon’s smile, which he had never given to anyone, made Yeonwoo feel like he was Geon’s woman.
However, Yeonwoo immediately denied the emotions he had just felt.
‘Don’t be delusional, Hong Yeonwoo. The reason Naru treats me so affectionately is because I am Naru’s person.’
Geon was subtly deep inside.
He thought that Naru treated him well just because Yeonwoo was his person, not because Geon had affectionate feelings for Yeonwoo.
‘I’m not smiling like this because I have feelings for you.’
Was he still not coming to his senses?
There should be no more moments of being thrilled alone and getting hurt alone, like the kissing incident from the past.
Thinking about it, Yeonwoo’s heart seemed to gradually calm down.
Yeonwoo felt the need to separate from Geon’s embrace first.
“Nari… Would you please let go of my hand?”
“!”
At Yeonwoo’s request, Geon quickly withdrew his hand. Then, with a face filled with regret, he opened his mouth.
“I’m sorry. I promised not to touch even a single fingertip…”
“No, I’m fine!”
Yeonwoo urgently shook his head.
The now awkward Yeonwoo scratched his forehead and spoke.
“I wanted to comfort Nari… but I ended up receiving comfort from Nari instead.”
“No. I’ve already received comfort.”
“You received comfort?”
With a puzzled expression, Yeonwoo looked at Geon.
Did he have memories of comforting Geon? There was nothing Yeonwoo had done but just cry.
Even the confused appearance of Yeonwoo was cute to Geon, and he let out a light chuckle this time.
“That’s right. I’ve received enough comfort.”
Geon had never cried with his own memories.
So perhaps because of that, even comforting him and shedding tears on his behalf were significant consolations for Geon.
It felt like an irreplaceable ally had been born.
“Hmm…”
However, Yeonwoo still did not seem to understand the situation and tilted his head in confusion.
At that moment, Geon’s gaze fell on the strands of hair stuck to Yeonwoo’s lips.
When Yeonwoo embraced Geon and cried, it seemed that one strand of Yeonwoo’s hair that had been untangled clung to her lips.
Geon reached out his hand to remove the strand of hair stuck to Yeonwoo’s lips.
“Wait.”
As Geon’s fingers touched Yeonwoo’s lips, Yeonwoo flinched.
It was just a touch of a finger to the lips, but a tingling sensation spread from the point where Geon’s finger touched Yeonwoo’s skin to her entire body.
“Stay still.”
“!”
Whether it was due to Geon’s careful finger movement or the hair brushing against the skin, Yeonwoo’s heart, which had barely calmed down, began to beat faster again.
Yeonwoo’s heart seemed to have decided to play leapfrog today, jumping up and down.
As the hair stuck to the lips fell off, Yeonwoo realized that Geon had removed the strand of hair that touched his lips.
“Haha, why was the hair stuck there?”
Yeonwoo let out an awkward laugh.
However, even though the hair had fallen off, Geon’s gaze remained on Yeonwoo and, if anything, approached Yeonwoo more and more.
“Nari…?”
Where did the previous tenderness go? Geon’s eyes, like an abyss, stared at Yeonwoo.
His gaze seemed to heat up Yeonwoo’s body as the distance between the two narrowed enough for their breaths to touch.
Yeonwoo involuntarily closed his eyes tightly.
“Hup!”
Since nothing was visible, other senses became more sensitive.
Geon’s breathing became more distinct, and the breath spread over the skin, causing a tingling sensation.
Thump, thump.
Even the heartbeat, which was difficult to distinguish whose it was, began to be heard.
When Geon opened his mouth about the time when even the sound of an almost indistinguishable heartbeat was heard, he said, “It’s getting late.”
“……?”
As Yeonwoo slowly opened his eyes, Geon, who had stood up and walked out of the living room, came into view.
“Sleep well.”
Without giving Yeonwoo a chance to reply, Geon quickly returned to his room.
“Huh…”
Yeonwoo looked at the closed living room door with a puzzled expression.
He had expected something to happen just now, but nothing happened, and disappointment first came to mind.
And that disappointment soon turned into self-blame.
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…?
