“Huh? Dog grooming?”
Slurp. Ayen, who was sipping a drink through a straw, widened her eyes.
Near Eunha’s academy, at a cafe, Ayen and Eunha decided to have lunch together after a long time.
“It’s only been a week.”
Rolling the pasta with a fork, Eunha answered absentmindedly.
Dog grooming… Does it even suit her? Ayen blinked her round eyes quickly. This unnie was truly refreshing every time Ayen saw her.
“How about you?”
“Huh? Me?”
“After that, they’ve been quiet.”
“Oh.”
Ayen chuckled.
“What can they do? Passing it off as an incident is good for both of us. Well, if they come back, I’ll be thankful.”
We do have evidence here. Ayen reached out and presented her mobile phone. It was a selfie of Ayen, with a light V-pose, her face slightly purple from the bruise.
“I’ve recorded everything, you know? The story of them mistaking me for a thief is all in here.”
Tap, tap. After tapping the screen a few times, Berde’s voice echoed through the mobile phone speaker.
“【You? You stole my item.】”
“What are you talking about? Do you have any evidence that I stole it?”
【There’s no one else who could’ve done it but you.】
“Hey, mister. That’s suspicion, not evidence.”
A conversation mixed with English and Korean. At that time, there was no problem communicating with the help of badges, but the recorded voice was raw English.
Nevertheless, it would be effective as evidence.
…A meticulous child. Eunha looked at Ayen with a meaningful smile. It was fascinating when and how she recorded such a thing while being hit.
“By the way, did you tell your friend about the Pixie Powder you won at the auction?”
Ayen, who put her phone away, remembered and clapped her hands.
The Pixie Powder that she worked hard to earn, and was also won at a high price at the auction. At first, she was amazed when she heard that she would give it to a friend.
“Yeah. It’s gradually getting better. I don’t know if it’s the effect of Pixie Powder.”
“Oh, really?”
Ayen, with her arms crossed, fell into deep thought, then suddenly smiled and pushed her head toward Eunha.
“If Pixie Powder comes up for auction next year, should I participate too? If it’s really effective, I can keep it and sell it for a lot of money later! Right? Unnie?”
“Maybe.”
Nonchalantly responding, Eunha, in front of Ayen who sparkled her eyes, said with a blank expression.
“Unnie, while we’re at it, let’s go to the Hunter Auction next year together!”
“Well, I’m now…”
Now? Looking at Eunha, who blurred the end of her sentence, Ayen made a puzzled face. Eunha looked up from her fork and spoke.
“From next month, I’ll be joining the employment class, and I’m thinking about getting a dog grooming license soon.”
“Huh…?”
Employment class…? A license…?
What is this unnie talking about?
“I’m not sure how next year will turn out.”
Eunha, sipping her cola through a straw, spoke. Stuttering, Ayen, who had been mumbling, suddenly rose from her seat.
“Wait a minute. Unnie, are you saying you’ll really get rid of the hunter like this?”
Without answering, Eunha continued sipping her drink, briefly checking her mobile phone. 12:43 PM. It was time to get up now.
“I’ll go first. I have a class starting at 1 PM.”
“Uh, Unnie?”
“See you next time.”
Eunha quickly left the cafe.
From the cafe to the dog grooming academy was about a 10-minute walk. After confirming that she had covered her face meticulously with a hat and a mask in front of the nearby clothing store window, Eunha headed to the academy.
“Wait a moment!”
Just before getting on the elevator, someone rushed in. As she stopped pressing the closing button, a young man, who had barely made it, stuck his head out between the almost closing elevator doors.
“Oh, Yura?”
Han Yunho. He was a person attending the same academy as Eunha.
“I’m relieved. Seeing you here, it seems the class hasn’t started yet. Phew. I didn’t have time to check while running over here.”
In a stylish gray checkered shirt and jeans, holding a black eco-bag, he warmly smiled and stood beside Eunha.
He took a leave of absence from a prestigious university, started learning dog grooming while doing tutoring part-time, and pursued his dream.
The reason Eunha knew so much about him was that he was the most popular guy in the academy. He was praised by the director, instructors, and students alike for being kind, friendly, and having a warm face.
“Are you on the way back from lunch?”
“Yes.”
“Ah, me too. Where did you eat? Is there a good place nearby?”
“Just a cafe in the busy district. I don’t know the name.”
“What did you eat?”
“Pasta.”
“With whom?”
“A fr…”
About to answer ‘with a friend,’ Eunha suddenly stopped and stared at Yunho.
He blinked awkwardly, then scratched his neck as if embarrassed.
“Oh, sorry. I dug too much, didn’t I?”
“…”
“Um, I just wanted to get close to you, Yura. Since we’re in the same class and all…”
Lost eyes wandering aimlessly. His ears were tinged with a deep red. After a hearty cough, Yunho looked up and glanced at Eunha.
“Uh, Yura, by any chance, a boyfriend─.”
Ding dong.
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…?
