Yerin smiled, but it wasn’t a real smile.
Even if she brought that woman, she doubted the situation would change much.
Because that woman was herself.
“Do as you see fit, Secretary Han.”
Surprisingly, Ihyeon backed off.
Yerin soon understood why he was so nonchalant.
“I actually don’t mind dating Secretary Han.”
“Director, it’s not a real relationship, it’s pretend.”
Ihyeon stood up and approached Yerin with his long legs.
As he got closer, Yerin’s heart beat faster.
“But Secretary Han, there’s something I haven’t told you.”
“Yes?”
Ihyeon took something shiny from his suit jacket pocket.
Recognizing what it was, Yerin bit her lip.
“Excuse me, Secretary Han.”
Ihyeon grabbed Yerin’s right hand and raised it slowly.
“Why are you trembling? People might think I’m going to eat you.”
Yerin’s fingertips trembled.
When she tried to pull her hand away, Ihyeon was quicker.
“It fits perfectly. Quite astonishing, really.”
Ihyeon tilted his head, looking at the ring that fit perfectly on Yerin’s right index finger.
“What are the chances?”
“I don’t understand what you mean.”
Her voice quivered with tension.
Yerin glared at the ring fitting snugly on her finger.
It was undoubtedly hers.
Her mother, Chan-suk, had given it to her when she joined Ji Seok Electronics.
And unfortunately, she lost that precious ring on the night she spent with Ihyeon.
She never expected Ihyeon to have it.
She thought she dropped it at the party.
Ihyeon, amused, gently fingered her hand as he spoke.
“Secretary Han, I don’t know women’s finger sizes, but…”
“…”
“What are the chances of someone else’s ring fitting so perfectly?”
A chill ran down her spine.
She couldn’t fall for Ihyeon’s probing questions.
Smiling, Yerin took the ring off her finger.
“You said it yourself before, Director. The woman you’re looking for has a similar build to mine.”
“That’s right.”
“So, it’s highly likely that our finger sizes would be similar as well.”
Yerin placed the ring she took off her finger back into Ihyeon’s palm.
The ring she had been searching for.
But she couldn’t ask for it back.
If she did that, it would mean acknowledging that she was the one who spent that deep night with Ihyeon.
Ihyeon stepped back with a look of disappointment.
“Too bad. I see.”
He carefully wrapped the ring in cloth and put it back in his jacket pocket.
Yerin watched the ring being taken away, feeling emptily as if it was stolen from her.
Ihyeon snapped his fingers, producing a sound.
“Secretary Han, there’s something I’ve been curious about.”
He stepped closer than before, even closer than the distance he had just retreated.
“Director?”
Ihyeon placed one hand on Yerin’s waist to prevent her from escaping and pulled her forcefully into his embrace.
Yerin’s lips slightly parted as she was engulfed by his fragrant scent.
“Secretary Han, that earring, could you take it off for a moment?”
“Excuse me?”
Ihyeon pointed precisely at Yerin’s right ear.
A large pearl earring dangled there.
Yerin purposely wore flashy, large earrings.
To cover the mole on her right earlobe.
“Why my earring…”
“Excuse me for a moment.”
Ihyeon leaned forward and removed the earring that had been hanging on Yerin’s ear.
The heavy weight that had been dangling on her right ear disappeared, and soon Ihyeon’s low voice echoed close to her ear.
“I remember quite clearly.”
“What do you remember?”
Ihyeon toyed with Yerin’s earlobe, sending her a dizzying gaze.
His smirk was truly lethal.
“It seems I’ve found her.”
“…”
“The woman who tormented me every night.”
Yerin’s eyes widened dramatically.
Ihyeon, capturing the panicked Yerin in his deep gaze, leaned closer.
Her throat moving up and down was captured in Yerin’s eyes in slow motion.
Finally, Ihyeon’s lips parted tantalizingly.
“Han Yerin. It’s you.”
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.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
