“So she came to the address she had written letters to before. Things had changed since the old days, and she wasn’t good at reading maps, so she was wandering around, and you helped her.”
I fell for her pretty looks and kindly showed her a shortcut.
“So why did she come to the neighborhood where her exboyfriend lived?”
“She just wanted to see it. That’s all.”
It seems that this blockhead believed her.
I drank some water out of frustration. After that, I kept my mouth shut until the meal was over.
We got up from the restaurant and went outside. The city on Friday night was lively. Amid that hustle, the two of us walked side by side.
Ji Seo Joon started walking, pushing me towards the inside when I kept getting jostled by the crowd. I watched his profile as he did so.
“Did you just take that girl and say that?”
Ji Seo Joon looked at me as if asking what I was talking about.
“I mean, did you just talk and part ways with that girl?”
Ji Seo Joon shook his head at my words.
“What did you do?”
“Just had a meal, okay?”
Just had a meal?
While I was sending him a doubtful look, Ji Seo Joon stopped and pulled out his cell phone from his bag.
After checking his cell phone, Ji Seo Joon looked at me.
How could his mind be so transparent?
In the past, was this the feeling when Ji Seo Joon looked at me?
“Answer it. Why aren’t you answering it?”
“Huh? Oh.”
At my words, he pressed the call button and brought the phone to his ear.
“Hello? Huh? Oh. No, I’m with a friend. Hmm? Oh. Where’s hyung?”
He seemed to be talking about being with me now, but after that, it was just a repetition of ‘hmm’ and ‘oh’, hard to figure out.
“Olivia?”
Ji Seo Joon, who seemed to want to point something out, twitched his eyebrows and sighed slightly, nodding his head.
“Why? Why did she call?”
“She got lost and seems to have left her bag somewhere.”
Ji Seo Joon started to ramble about Olivia’s situation to me.
“Don’t you have to go see her?”
At my words, Ji Seo Joon, who nodded slightly, had a face full of regret.
“Go quickly.”
“I’m sorry.”
I fended off Ji Seo Joon, who said he would take me to the bus stop, and started walking alone.
It wasn’t a long way.
I wasn’t a child and could naturally return home alone, but it felt as if I had lost my way.
“Should I have not let him go?”
I felt the familiar night air of Seoul. However, it felt as if I had been dropped in an unfamiliar city.
Sighing, I looked at the display board that stated the bus I had to take would arrive in 10 minutes.
Upsetting my emotions, and the appearance of my exgirlfriend, of all things.
“Should I just quit everything and go to Australia?”
Overwhelmed by the surging emotions, I pondered over boarding a flight to Australia several times. Then, I heard an announcement that the bus heading home would arrive soon.
I stood at the end of the line of people, waiting for my turn.
Just as I barely boarded the bus and sat down, someone stopped the bus in a hurry, making the bus driver open the doors again.
“What if something happens when you run like that when the bus is about to leave! It’s dangerous.”
The bus driver complained, panting at the person who got on the bus.
“I’m sorry. I had to catch this bus. I’m sorry.”
Upon hearing the familiar voice, I quickly turned my head.
It was Ji Seo Joon.
Ji Seo Joon apologized to the driver and the passengers, bowing his head, and came to stand in front of the seat where I was sitting.
“You….”
As I opened my mouth in surprise, Ji Seo Joon, who smiled, handed his bag to me.
“Aren’t you supposed to go to Olivia?”
“It’s okay not to.”
The four words that came out of Ji Seo Joon’s mouth instantly calmed my previously agitated mind.
“Shouldn’t you still go and see her?”
Feeling slightly embarrassed, I spoke words that I didn’t even mean.
“Should I really go?”
For a moment, the bus jolted severely as if it had crossed a highspeed bump. Ji Seo Joon, who was staggering. I held his arm tightly so that he wouldn’t fall.
At my reaction, Ji Seo Joon smiled.
“Should I really go?”
In response to Ji Seo Joon’s question, I shook my head vehemently.
On the way home from getting off the bus.
I glanced at Ji Seo Joon who was walking next to me.
“Am I that handsome?”
At Ji Seo Joon’s words, I scowled. Then, Ji Seo Joon, who had brushed my face with his palm, flicked one of his eyebrows.
“Speak up if you have something to say.”
After hesitating for a while, I cautiously opened my mouth.
“I know I’m meddling, but… are you really not going to go to Olivia?”
Ji Seo Joon, who had stopped walking and was staring at me.
“No…. You just came back from abroad. You said you didn’t have your bag…”
“I said I’d cover it if you take a taxi and ask the driver to tell him the account number.”
Ah. There was such a method.
These days, you could make payments if you just had a cell phone. Even if you don’t have a bag, you could put out an urgent fire…
Why didn’t I think of that?
Praising Ji Seo Joon for his cleverness, I gave him a thumbs up.
“She doesn’t do things like internet banking. She can’t trust machines or something like that. She hasn’t even started using a smartphone for long.”
Ji Seo Joon shook his head in disbelief.
“Olivia seems like a pretty unique character too.”
At my murmur, he looked down at me with an inexplicable expression.
“Why, why!”
“It’s okay if you don’t know.”
Ji Seo Joon, who left just those words and started walking again.
I chased after Ji Seo Joon, asking why he made such a face until we reached home, but I couldn’t get an answer.
A weekend morning when I didn’t have to go to work.
I opened my eyes laboriously at the disturbing noise.
“Which bastard…”
After cursing the mastermind of the bell sound that disrupted my nap, I checked my cell phone.
It was Ji Seo Joon.
“I won’t answer.”
I placed my cell phone on the stomach of my favorite stuffed animal and pushed it as far away as possible.
And I closed my eyes to sleep again.
“Moon Da Yul!”
“Ah! Why!”
My mom suddenly opened the door and came in. She checked my phone that was ringing persistently as she entered the room.
“Moon Da Yul. It’s a call from Ji Seo Joon. What time do you think it is and you’re still asleep. Wake up!”
My mom forcefully pulled my blanket.
“I said I’m sleeping!”
“You just woke up.”
So my mom and I had a tug of war over the blanket. Naturally, the winner was my mom.
She handed me the phone and gracefully disappeared from the room.
“Why.”
“I’m in front of your house right now.”
Ji Seo Joon who suddenly claimed he was in front of my house.
He wondered if I wasn’t curious about what would happen if I didn’t come out to the front of the house soon.
“Hey. Just, just ten minutes…… no! Fifteen minutes!”
I’ll go up in 5 minutes.
I stared blankly at the disconnected call and quickly got up.

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…?
