“Oh my. Look at this. The puppy’s belly is so round. You’re really gentle and cute.”
It would have been better if it stopped there, but Lizbet brought her nose close to the chubby belly.
“Look at this. So round. Looks like it’s about to burst.”
Laughing with a snicker, Lizbet, and Sesenia watching them, unable to laugh, with a look as if she had lost everything, even the puppy looking into the distance as if it had lost something precious.
It would have been better if it ended there, but Lizbet brought her nose to the puppy’s hind legs and sniffed, giggling as she did.
“So soft! I really wanted to try this. My mom always told me not to bring animals home, not to do things I couldn’t take responsibility for… Ha. It feels really good.”
“Lizbet… Let the puppy down. Its owner might show up… Besides, the puppy might pee.”
“That’s true… Ha.”
While saying that, Lizbet sighed, regretfully patting the puppy up and down.
“Will we be able to see it again?”
“…”
“Look at this. Why does it make such a silly and vacant expression? Seriously, it looks like a boy from over there. This is incredibly small and cute.”
“…Enough. Lizbet, let it go.”
The belly and legs, and… That’s it. Sesenia, who knew all too well who was inside, couldn’t firmly stop herself from resenting her inability to do so.
“Ah… I’m sorry. I’ll let it go. Goodbye, puppy.”
“…”
The puppy, perhaps shocked, stood still for a moment, then turned its head back late and walked away.
“We might see it again?”
“…If it’s fate, we might see it again.”
We’ll see each other soon.
Sesenia awkwardly smiled.
“But it seems like it’s only going that far and not turning back. Maybe we are good for each other.”
“There might be another intention behind it.”
“An intention for a puppy?”
“Just saying it that way…”
“But that puppy is strange, Miss.”
Did she finally notice? Sesenia looked at Lizbet, who sharply observed the puppy, with widened eyes.
“Yeah. It’s strange.”
“Yes. It feels like I’ve seen it somewhere.”
At Lizbet’s words, the puppy suddenly started barking as if it were possessed.
“Miss! The puppy seems to be in pain.”
“Leave it alone. It’s just surprised.”
“S-Surprised? The puppy…?”
“There are such things. But Lizbet, Lizbet also has a sensitive sense.”
“Yes…?”
“No. Let’s go.”
Of course, Teddy, who was watching all this from behind, looked very dissatisfied and stared at the puppy with a very dissatisfied expression.
As if he was about to rush to the puppy right away.
“Teddy. Don’t pick a fight with the puppy.”
“…That… No…”
Teddy was already glancing at the puppy as if he knew who it was. Sesenia quickly grabbed his arm.
“Let’s protect Lizbet.”
“…Miss already knew, huh?”
“Yeah, so you didn’t touch it.”
Sesenia whispered a voice that only Teddy could hear. Only then did Teddy nod in understanding with an expression that said he already knew.
“That’s right.”
“Yeah. So, I acted in self-defense.”
Sesenia didn’t understand why she had to explain this to Teddy herself.
However, like someone being drawn by something, Sesenia appealed her innocence.
“I really didn’t have any intentions.”
“…”
“I’m serious.”
Like a cat swaying its tail, Teddy chuckled and nodded.
“I believe you.”
“Really?”
“Yes. I was just sending a pleading look to my master, so I kept silent. Actually, I was fine. I was just a little jealous.”
With a smiling face, Sesenia also burst into laughter at Teddy’s actions.
“Why be jealous.”
“In fact, I shouldn’t be jealous… I went too far. I’m sorry.”
“No, I meant, why be jealous when there’s no relationship with that puppy. As I said, Teddy, you’re the most precious to me. I mean it’s a lot of preciousness. So, no need to worry.”
“Thank you.”
“Now then, let’s go. Explore the market. I’ve never properly seen the market.”
Sesenia, who had been talking quietly all along, spoke loudly, and Lizbet raised her hand in response.
“I’ve been here often! I’ll show you around!”
“Good. Then let’s go, Teddy.”
“…Yes!”
Sesenia reached out her hand to him.
Teddy, hesitating as if he was worried whether he could dare hold her precious hand, finally took that hand.
Someone who always reaches out to him.
To Teddy, Sesenia was the salvation who pulled him out of hell, a god, and the world.
The only person who allowed him to exist as himself, to live like a human.
‘My master. I want to live as your servant.’
It didn’t matter who he was now. He looked at Sesenia walking ahead.
Her hair, like the night sky, made him think of her every evening. It was warm, like she would come when night fell.
Her red eyes were like the sun rising in the east. Every moment of the day, every hour, made him think of her.
So he was afraid. Sesenia, who kept trying to find out what kind of life he had lived, was frightening.
In case she abandons him. In case everything precious to him lets him go. So he tightened his grip on Sesenia’s hand.
“May I dare hold your hand?”
“Yes. Isn’t this safer? Protect me, Teddy. Always, anytime, anywhere.”
“Yes.”
“Now, let’s go!”
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…?
