But if you dismiss and forget me, who spent 13 years together, as an unnecessary existence?
In that case, I’ll fetch water every day, fold my hands together, and fervently pray and pray again.
Regretfully hitting the ground, lamenting that you missed an incredibly great girl, growing old alone and regretting until I die. Dying without knowing that our well-raised child exists.
Perhaps that level of a parting was acceptable.
Even if doing this wouldn’t let me know Sajun’s feelings until the end, there was one thing I knew for sure.
Rather than tearfully pleading with tears, it seemed better to leave after saying words that completely stirred the heart.
Sajun, who could act however he pleased and obtain anything he wanted, came to realize that there were things in the world that didn’t go according to his wishes, things that seemed within reach but remained elusive.
“Goodbye, Sajun.”
After delivering her final farewell and turning her back, Taehee didn’t see it.
The slowly emerging confusion in Sajun’s indifferent black eyes as the door closed.
⭐️⭐️⭐️
It was damn bad timing.
With the sound of the door slamming shut, the belated sense of reality returned.
Understanding that Min Taehee, who had been with him just moments ago, wasn’t a welcome sight.
Sajun took a deep breath, exhaling slowly as he surveyed the bedroom.
The dazzling sunlight streaming through the wet curtains, the dense yet taut air, the immaculate furnishings without a single disturbance, the closed door.
The bedroom looked unchanged, as if no one had come and gone just a moment ago.
However, Min Taehee had definitely stayed here.
The lingering scent of Min Taehee’s hair remained at the tip of his nose.
His lips, which had touched her tender nape, remembered the softness.
Sajun, getting up from the bed, headed to the bathroom.
Facing the mirror, bloodshot eyes glared at him accusingly.
Crazy bastard.
He smirked and cursed himself.
Standing under the chilly water pouring down in the shower stall, he stood there for a while.
Ignoring the trembling of frozen lips and the numbness, he muttered incessantly.
“Min Taehee. Taehee.”
Daring to utter the name of the woman he loved.
“That you love me, that you loved me.”
The unbelievable confession that the woman he loved had spoken.
Sometimes laughing foolishly, at other times reddening his eyes as if he might cry any moment.
While Min Taehee poured out many words calmly and coolly, Sajun couldn’t say anything.
He just listened.
It seemed necessary to hear all those words, whether they were true or false, from beginning to end.
Only then could he think, plan, and gauge the situation.
However, the more he pondered, the more entangled Min Taehee’s words became.
Thinking his head might explode, Sajun locked the lever and sank down.
He laughed a bitter laugh without realizing it.
Water dripped from his bangs, drenched in water.
The blurred vision was probably because of that water.
Not his tears.
Suddenly and unexpectedly, Min Taehee had confessed her love, bid farewell without any lingering regrets, and left. Sajun couldn’t grasp her.
Even if he caught her now, it would be futile.
What could he do with a brain soaked in alcohol?
He needed to regain his senses and have a proper conversation with Min Taehee.
Perhaps Min Taehee left because she didn’t want a response now, given his pathetic state.
Sajun closed his eyes slowly, his wet hair sticking to his forehead.
“That bet, it was fake.”
“If you had said you love me, you wouldn’t have left, believe that word coming from me.
With what kind of heart did I endure that word, put on airs, and tried to win the bet?
You don’t believe me, so why should I believe you?
Sajun was nothing more than a fool in love, a coward.
I don’t know how much Taehee loves me, but it’s probably smaller than my feelings.
So she would have confessed her love first. She would have said she loved me, turned away without any lingering regrets. I couldn’t even summon the courage to do that.
Therefore, this confession is also probably fake.
I got sick of it to the point where I didn’t want to fill three months. After starting the relationship, I was too blindly obedient, obediently boring, so maybe I wanted to leave.
Or, is there another reason why you should leave me?
Sajun’s eyes, washing his face with big hands, looked bitter.
“Why is it so hard for you?”
It felt like my breath was caught, my heart was burning, and I couldn’t understand anything from Sajun. It was impossible to accept anything.
Why say you love me and not think about hearing the answer.
Instead of expecting to be loved, why try to let go of that love? Just because I didn’t say I love you with one word, she tidied up her feelings lightly.
How can ‘I love you’ turn into ‘I loved you’ so quickly? How did the present tense become the past tense?
So Sajun couldn’t believe it either.
With stiff eyelids, he spat out as if chewing.
“Lies, you can’t love me.”
As he tried to make such a firm conclusion, his head and chest rang heavily.
The second night, Min Taehee’s gaze, expression, and voice.
‘Then say you love me.’
‘Who knows? Instead of waiting for that confession, I might confess that I love you before leaving.’
‘Are you not curious about my sincerity?’
The dark brown pupils that were about to cry right away, the smile that was lightly tinged as if giving up, and the whisper that eventually asked to hug me while putting my neck on the line.
Maybe, so it’s really ridiculous.
Even though he knew it couldn’t be true.
If this was also a fake Min Taehee made to test her feelings.
Sajun slowly raised the closed eyelids.
It felt like he had been hit hard on the back of the head.
His brain was tingling, but his mind suddenly cleared.
The light returned to the eyes that had gone dark.

After leaving the hotel, Taehee drove straight to Ilsan.
The only person she could think of was Hyesuk, but she also wanted to see Hyesuk.
Perhaps because she got pregnant and made up her mind harshly.
Driving was easier and less scary than before.
While waiting for the signal for a moment, Taehee gently stroked her flat belly.
“Our little elf is even improving Mom’s driving skills.”
It only took twenty minutes to reach Ilsan, a place that usually took nearly two hours.
Hyesuk, who seemed to be preparing to go out, opened the door. She was elegantly dressed.
“Mom, daughter! What’s going on without any contact?”
Hyesuk, opening the door, vigorously welcomes Taehee, and her eyes scan behind Taehee.
Knowing what she is looking for, Taehee smiles and says, “Sajun didn’t come with me.”
“He should have come with you.”
Ignoring the voice that seems hurt, Taehee asks, “But where were you going?”
“I was going on a drive with that person. But now that you’re here, I guess I have to cancel.”
“Now we go on drives together? Seriously, Mom…”
Before Taehee finishes speaking, Hyesuk interrupts, raising her hand seriously.
“Don’t have strange thoughts. I’m doing this just to return a little of what I received. I have no lingering regrets for that person, not even a speck of attachment, Mom.”
“Really?”
Holding Taehee’s hand and going to the living room, Hyesuk answers brightly.
“That’s right. Seeing that woman explode is refreshing, and lately, that person is practically pretending to be dead when I talk. So, after enjoying myself, when you marry Sajun, I don’t care…”
She stopped talking quickly, but it was already too late.
Even though she spoke painfully, Hyesuk ultimately believed that she would marry Sajun.
If it were the past, Taehee would have shouted, “Why on earth are you like this?” and firmly declared that she would never marry Sajun.
But now the situation has changed.
She fervently hopes that Sajun will leave her while also fervently hoping to marry him.
And what she desperately needs now from Hyesuk is a mother who is full of fear, someone to comfort and reassure her, more than the baby in her belly.
Taking a deep breath, Taehee slowly opens her mouth.
“Mom, I’m pregnant.”
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.
