Not long after, Geon’s unstable and rough breathing regained stability.
Observing this, Shinwoong’s eyes widened.
“……!”
Just a moment ago, Geon’s condition was uncertain, and it was worrisome when he would take his last breath. But now, as if he had taken a miraculous medicine, Geon quickly regained stability.
With a mysterious gaze, Shinwoong alternately looked at Geon and Yeonwoo.
Seeing the now stable Geon, Yeonwoo breathed a sigh of relief as if letting go of some anxiety.
“Phew…”
Slowly withdrawing her hand, Yeonwoo carefully pulled up the blanket that covered Geon to his shoulders.
After spreading the blanket flat, she quietly stood up from her seat.
To avoid disturbing his recovery, she silently left the room and gently closed the door.
Looking through the window, the setting sun was clearly visible. It seemed that evening was approaching.
“Ah…!”
At that moment, Yeonwoo, as if something had come to mind, asked Shinwoong in surprise.
“By any chance, how is the time now?”
“By now, it should be around yu-si (5 to 7 in the evening).”
Surely, when Yeonwoo arrived at Shinwoong’s cabin, it was late at night.
“Then, does that mean a day has passed?”
“Yes. Since you, Miss, have been lying down for almost a whole day.”
At Shinwoong’s words, Yeonwoo’s face turned pale, as if her soul had left her.
Today was the promised day to watch the Biyeong and Baekjungnorae.
Moreover, it was an appointment scheduled for the sa-si (9 to 11 in the morning), almost half a day had passed.
When she was young, Biyeong often played with Yeonwoo.
They would sit on a rock and talk, and after Biyeong taught her how to shoot a bow, they would go hunting together.
However, after preparing for the civil service exam, she had been separated from Biyeong for a while, and those times had become distant memories.
Since becoming a competent adult, it was the first time Yeonwoo had spent time playing alone with Biyeong.
Thinking of how hard she must have been with intense training, Yeonwoo hoped that Biyeong enjoyed a day of relaxation today.
Biyeong wanted to make Yeonwoo’s vacation perfect.
By saving time even at the expense of skipping meals, Biyeong could arrive at Doseong well ahead of schedule.
For Yeonwoo’s perfect vacation, thorough preparation was needed.
First, Biyeong went to find the organizers of the Baekjungnorae to understand the schedule.
In response to Biyeong’s inquiry about the schedule, the organizer enthusiastically exclaimed, “Starting with the Nongsin Festival, there’s also a beheading ceremony, wrestling matches, and… Oh! This year’s Baekjungnorae has invited a famous dance performer. Dancers and musicians from all over the country will be here, so it will be even more exciting than last year.”
Since Beheading Ceremony didn’t seem like something Yeonwoo would enjoy, Biyeong skipped over it and asked for the specific schedule of events she would like.
“Our group is really looking forward to attending this Baekjungnorae. What about the schedule for the dance performer and musicians?”
“It starts from Misi to Yusi (1 PM to 7 PM). How about the age and gender of the accompanying group?”
The organizer seemed ready to make recommendations based on the gender and age range of Biyeong’s group.
“She’s a young woman, 20 years old.”
At Biyeong’s response that their group includes a woman, the organizer gave a sly smile.
“Will you be enjoying it with a young lady?”
“That’s correct.”
“In that case, I’ll tell you about a place where young ladies would be enchanted. Around Solsi (7 PM), the fireworks will start. If you go to the pavilion over there around that time, you’ll have a perfect view of the fireworks.”
The organizer pulled out his lips, making a sinister expression as he spoke.
“If you match the atmosphere, where won’t you find women willing to follow you? They’ll be falling over themselves, flipping their skirts for you.”
“That lady is not one to be treated lightly.”
Feeling discomfort with the organizer’s reaction, Biyeong responded seriously.
However, the information about watching the fireworks from the pavilion sounded useful, so it seemed like something Yeonwoo might enjoy.
Biyeong asked Soondeok to book a good spot in advance, then went to find a Gayageum player among the musicians of Baekjungnorae.
Since Gayageum was Yeonwoo’s favorite instrument, Biyeong requested a private performance around the time the festival would end.
“Can you play near the pavilion when the fireworks start?”
“That’s possible. I will prepare a generous gift as thanks.”
Getting private requests like this wasn’t profitable for the musician, and he looked awkward. But when he saw the pouch full of coins that Biyeong offered, he couldn’t help but smile with satisfaction.
“Feel free to ask for anything. Whether it’s one or two hours, I will play as you wish.”
With the musician secured, Biyeong gradually moved towards the meeting place.
Although there was still half an hour left until she would meet Yeonwoo, every moment was precious, even the time waiting for her.
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…?
