Unable to take the risk of revealing her true identity, Yeonwoo found herself in a perplexing moment. At that awkward juncture, Yeonwoo came up with a solution. Choa believed that Yeonwoo was a man. No matter how much skin she exposed, a grown woman wouldn’t casually undress a man. If she thought that revealing her identity or her bed was risky, she could refuse at that moment. Yeonwoo pushed her worries aside.
“No, I will definitely go! When should I go?” Yeonwoo accepted the invitation, and Choa’s face turned red.
“Is the day after tomorrow okay?”
“The day after tomorrow is fine!” When the two joyous women were giggling, a small stone flew towards Yeonwoo’s head.
“Ah!” When Yeonwoo turned her head in the direction of the flying stone, Daebok, who had a troubled expression, was pointing his finger at her. It seemed like he also wanted to be taken along.
Having diverted her gaze from Daebok, Yeonwoo sighed and said, “Can my colleague come too? The guy you saw last time, Daebok…”
“Oh, I remember! Whether he comes or not is fine.” When Choa readily agreed, Daebok breathed a sigh of relief.
After making plans with Choa, Yeonwoo left HyeMinseo. As soon as she stepped outside, Daebok, with a cheerful expression, rushed towards Yeonwoo. Then, as if approvingly, he pinched Yeonwoo’s soft cheeks on both sides.
“Hunting boars, catching crabs, catching crayfish, eating pheasants, eating eggs, ayy! This cute one!”
“Don’t ever make such a request again!” Yeonwoo, with a firm expression, handed Daebok a bundle of medicinal herbs. “If you eat them all at once, it could cause a reaction. Take them separately.”
“Yeah, yeah!” Even while receiving the medicinal herbs from Yeonwoo, Daebok couldn’t hide his excitement and jumped up with joy.
“Being invited to Lady Choa’s house! That day will be a memorable one! I should mark it on the calendar!”
“Is it really that great?”
“It’s great!” Even as he moved away, Daebok didn’t forget to advise Yeonwoo. “Don’t forget the promise tomorrow!”
Yeonwoo was pleased with the invitation to Choa’s house, but seeing Daebok so thrilled made her wonder if it was really that good. However, knowing how much Daebok had missed Choa, Yeonwoo understood it a bit. Smiling at Daebok’s excited back, Yeonwoo said, “Maybe I should start heading back.” Yeonwoo also headed home. To prepare the chicken for Samgyetang, she needed to go to the market and do some processing, so she had to move quickly. In the meantime, the medicinal herbs for Geon and Daebok had been swapped, but no one noticed.
Daebok couldn’t contain his excitement even as he received medicinal herbs from Yeonwoo; he bounced his shoulders.
“Miss Choa invited you to her house, that day will be a memorable one! You should mark it on the calendar!”
“Is it really that good?”
“As good as it gets!”
Even as Daebok moved away, he didn’t forget to advise Yeonwoo, “Don’t forget the promise tomorrow!”
Being invited to Choa’s house was a joyous occasion for Yeonwoo as well, but seeing Daebok so thrilled made her wonder if it was really that good. However, knowing how much Daebok had missed Choa, Yeonwoo understood it a bit. Smiling at Daebok’s excited back, Yeonwoo said, “Maybe I should start heading back.” Yeonwoo also headed home. To prepare the chicken for Samgyetang, she needed to go to the market and do some processing, so she had to move quickly. In the meantime, the medicinal herbs for Geon and Daebok had been swapped, but no one noticed.
Upon arriving home, Yeonwoo began boiling the Samgyetang. After putting in the medicinal herbs from HyeMinseo, a savory aroma filled the air as it simmered. Next, Yeonwoo took out good herbs for men and prepared a medicinal soup for Geon. Although Choa had warned that herbs good for men were potent, and it must be divided, Yeonwoo, unaware of the swap between Daebok and Geon’s herbs, brewed the soup all at once.
With the Samgyetang and medicine in hand, Yeonwoo entered Geon’s room where he lay.
“Nari, have your meal.”
As Geon slowly raised his upper body, the scent of the freshly-cooked Samgyetang caught his attention. In a voice drained of strength, he asked, “Did you make this?”
“Yes. I heard Samgyetang is good for regaining strength, so I made it. Please have it before your meal.”
When Yeonwoo offered the Samgyetang, Geon seemed uninterested in eating and just stared at the food, emitting a fragrant steam.
“Do you dislike Samgyetang?”
When Yeonwoo cautiously asked, Geon, in a rather stubborn voice, opened his mouth.
“Feed me.”
It seemed that Geon was still remembering the porridge Yeonwoo fed him yesterday, given his weakened state.
“What?”
At Geon’s unexpected demand, Yeonwoo asked again to confirm if she heard correctly. It wasn’t like him to make such jokes, and Geon’s expression, boldly demanding to be fed, was surprisingly serious.
“You have no strength in your hands, so feed me.”
After hesitating for a moment, Yeonwoo accepted Geon’s stubborn demand.
“This time only. I’m doing this because you’re unwell.”
“Sure.”
Yeonwoo thought she needed to find a medicine that would help Geon recover his spirit quickly, and she fed him the Samgyetang.
Geon accepted the bowl of Samgyetang that Yeonwoo offered with a satisfied smile.
Before they knew it, the bowl was emptied, and it was time for the medicinal soup.
Yeonwoo was worried again about having to feed him, but fortunately, Geon drank the medicinal soup on his own this time.
As Geon was drinking the soup, he slightly furrowed his brow.
Geon concealed a satisfied smile as he gulped down the Samgyetang that Yeonwoo was offering.
Before they knew it, as the bowl emptied, it was time to take the medicinal soup.
Yeonwoo was worried again if she had to feed him this time as well, but fortunately, Geon drank the medicinal soup on his own.
While sipping the medicinal soup, Geon furrowed his brows slightly.
‘The taste is a bit strange…’
The smell alone was different from the usual medicinal soup he had when he was feeling unwell.
Thinking it might be due to the differences between HyeMinseo and the internal clinic’s preparation methods, Geon nonchalantly emptied the cup.
However, not long after, unusual symptoms began to appear in Geon’s body.
A heat different from the usual warmth when he caught a cold gradually filled Geon’s body.
His body, which was chilled a moment ago, suddenly became warm and feverish.
“Hong Yeonwoo.”
“Yes?”
“Is it just me, or is it hot in here?”
“Weren’t you feeling cold just a moment ago? It seems like the medicinal soup is working well.”
It felt too strange for it to be just that.
Eventually, unable to control the heat coursing through his body, Geon took off his upper garment.
“W-What are you doing now?”
Surprised, Yeonwoo exclaimed as Geon exposed his upper body.
As soon as their eyes met, Yeonwoo’s body froze.
“Oops!”
Geon’s fiery gaze was like that of a hawk that had its prey right in front of its nose.
Approaching with burning eyes, Geon’s body became uncontrollable, causing Yeonwoo to step back in shock.
“N-Nari?”
Despite Yeonwoo’s retreat, Geon approached her, and in no time, he forcefully grabbed her wrist.
Yeonwoo’s body helplessly fell backward.
In no time, Geon, who had taken over Yeonwoo’s body, looked down at her and exhaled a rough breath.
Unbeknownst to her, Geon, who had taken control of Yeonwoo’s body, looked down at her, exhaling rough breaths.
“Hoo…”
As he growled in a voice lower than usual, a strangely intense aura could be felt.
Under Geon’s predatory gaze, Yeonwoo, feeling tense, swallowed nervously. Geon’s crimson lips curled up.
“You… What did you make me eat?”
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…?
