Benjamin didn’t bother pretending to be courteous. Even if Yurisien were to say, “Oops, it was a joke,” and try to correct it, he fully demonstrated his skills by leaping to the third floor of Hwaseong Terrace to cross the mansion.
Benjamin, climbing dangerously on the terrace railing, brushed the hand that had grabbed the tree a few times.
“Did you wait?”
Even though Yurisien’s words were on the verge of coming out as she was boiling with impatience, she barely swallowed them. Yurisien opened the terrace door, put on the slippers placed outside, and asked.
“It’s not far… Why do you come here so dangerously?”
“If you spend time in a short distance, it’s a waste.”
As if Benjamin thought it was nothing, he thumped on the railing he had stood on a while ago. Benjamin, who had leaned on the railing, reached out to me with his hand, saying to come towards him.
“I won’t go inside today.”
“I didn’t say you would let me in.”
“No, I will soon.”
“You’re so confident.”
“I obtained Windsor’s heart, so what’s difficult about going into a lover’s room.”
“Ahaha.”
Yurisien, who laughed because he liked the sound of lovers, held hands. Perhaps because of his light a
Benjamin’s broad shoulders, as he naturally leaned in to kiss Yurisien’s hair, abruptly stiffened. In that motion, Yurisien, who had been quietly nestled against him, lifted her head and met his gaze.
‘Yes?’
The red eyes questioning with a glance were cruelly innocent. Benjamin lost his words. He was undoubtedly frail, having spent time in the temple and performed deeds not less than the priests. However, that couldn’t be the reason why he was unaware of the physical changes.
“Uh…”
Benjamin, with his words stuck, breathed heavily as if he had swallowed a very large candy in one go. He didn’t know what to say to Yurisien. Considering Yurisien was an adult, and moreover, considering she had loved Heathcliff for a long time, he didn’t think she wouldn’t know.
But at the same time, he almost did something terrible to Heathcliff. Those horrible memories would torment Yurisien every night even now.
‘But if I say that, Yurisien won’t come to me comfortably anymore. That would be unacceptable.’
‘No, wait. Just saying it should be fine.’
It’s originally this hot. Why is it so difficult to say that?
The word ‘white lie’ flashed through Benjamin’s mind.
“……!”
Ah, Yurisien. You seem so intelligent and noble!
While Yurisien, who was thinking alone, was stiffening, her body that had been holding her cheek against the railing was now stiff. With wide-open eyes and biting her lower lip, her face was clearly a face that said ‘I’ve caught it all.’
“Haa.”
Taking a deep breath, Benjamin turned his head to the opposite side and covered his face with his big hand.
Even in this situation, the hand that held Yurisien’s hair was still there. Watching Benjamin, who wiped his face several times, Yurisien, who had been thinking alone, asked.
“My lord.”
“Hmm?”
Benjamin, who had Yurisien’s long hair spread out, pinched it with his fingers. How difficult is it to say that this is originally hot.
While thinking so, Yurisien suddenly asked.
“Is it usually this hot?”
So the gatekeepers were driven away with Ivan, but their faces were cheerful. The primary purpose of gambling is not about winning money. It’s about winning. And victory always intoxicates people.
“I’m paying today!”
“Hey, are you the only one? I’ll pay too!”
Though they hadn’t even had a drink, the gamblers, who seemed overly drunk, demanded that they would spend the money they had won. Ivan, who had been strolling among them, reached the front of the tavern and then pretended to be surprised.
“Oh, sirs. What should I do, feeling sorry? I have to leave early tomorrow morning, so I can’t drink today.”
“What? Why do you always leave so early? It hasn’t been a few days since you returned.”
“Well, this guy. Do you think it’s okay to stay in one place for a long time according to the will of the god of gambling?”
Ivan’s colleague stopped the regretful gatekeeper. Ivan spent some pleasant moments with the gamblers and then parted ways, heading to a shabby inn.
However, when he went down to the basement and opened the door of the warehouse, the headquarters of the Cofradia Guild in the north appeared. The Cofradia Guild members had established places like this connected to the headquarters all over the Solgerion Empire.
“Any news?”
“There is one with Vice Guild Master Sieron.”
Entering inside, when Ivan asked, a guild member of the headquarters respectfully handed over the report.
“He arrived two hours ago.”
“Ugh, sigh. I’ll hear another lecture. I thought it would be a moment, but obtaining trust is like that.”
Ivan, who was grumbling, shut his mouth. Two hours. Usually, it’s the time left before the arrival of the soldiers who went to the Hopeland Viscountcy. But now it was a matter of waiting until they come back.
Now that Huangbi’s affiliation with the Hebenism faith has been revealed, it was easy to predict that her goal was not just to put Heathcliff on the imperial throne.
‘I don’t have time.’
Moreover, they might not know when they would target Yurisien again. It was now beyond his capacity to silently catch evidence until then. Moreover, Ivan had achieved a great feat in today’s infiltration. It was such a remarkable achievement that he didn’t need to bother with such a cumbersome task.
Ivan, who smirked, was approached by a guild member.
“Will you go out again?”
“No. I’ll take a break and go to the townhouse later.”
Even though the guild member had a look asking if it was okay after reading the report in advance, he didn’t ask. Ivan scolded Mitchel every time, but he was the most cherished and relied upon subordinate. He thought Ivan would have some plan, so Ivan took him to an empty room.
The next day.
“Miss, wake up.”
Daisy knocked on the door with a lively voice. However, there was no response coming from inside, no matter how long she waited.
‘Is she sleeping deeply?’
But today, there was a schedule. Edna and Yerim had requested a visit early in the morning. If she wasn’t awakened soon, she would be late for receiving guests. Daisy, with apologies, went inside.
“Miss, you need to wake up…….!”
However, Yurisien wasn’t in bed. Moreover, the bed was exactly as Daisy had neatly arranged it last night.
In other words, last night, Yurisien disappeared without sleeping in bed.
‘No way!’
It was the moment when a chill of cold sweat ran down Daisy’s spine.
Rustle.
A sound came from the sofa on the other side of the bed. Curious about what it was, as she headed that way.
“Young lady, ugh!”
Daisy, who was screaming, hastily covered her mouth. In that brief moment, she thought it would be wrong to wake up the deeply sleeping Yurisien. However, Daisy’s brown eyes shook like a shipwreck facing a fierce storm at that moment.
All because of Benjamin, who was asleep with Yurisien placed on top of me!
The only thought in Daisy’s mind, who opened her eyes wide, was one.
‘Well… did they sleep?!’
Male lead is reincarnated to save his wife
I’ve also read this one twice already. The female lead is kinda soft and gets embarrassed easily—not really my type, but the plot is definitely worth reading. Hurry up and read it, y’all!
Intro
When Shen Yuan encountered Su Jin again in his previous life, she had already become the Prime Minister of the current dynasty. As for him, the former top young master of the capital, he had long since fallen into the abyss, becoming a singer on a pleasure boat.
After a song ended, he was redeemed and sent to the Su Residence.
Su Jin respected and cherished him, gave him a roof over his head, and bestowed him with warmth. Shen Yuan fell deeper and deeper, but before he could express his feelings, Su Jin passed away.
Shen Yuan died to follow her in death, but instead, he returned to when he was fifteen years old.
At that time, he was not yet engaged, and Su Jin was just a poor scholar.
Shen Yuan gritted his teeth, casting aside all his pride, and thought of ways to coax and entice her every day.
The colder and more indifferent Su Jin was towards him, the more proactive Shen Yuan became.
He was not afraid of being mocked by the world, only wanting to marry his Wife-master early, to hold her hand and never let go for a lifetime.
