“무덤을 찾지 않았다는 거야.”
“What? The police station?”
“Yes. A young lady in a black dress, holding a black parasol… It must be your guest.”
Upon hearing the news that Eun Ha had been taken to the police station, Siwoo doubted his ears. He had secretly arranged for someone to accompany her in case of an emergency, but the first report was ‘going to the police station.’ Why on earth?
“I’ll go there myself.”
Siwoo, who had stopped what he was doing, headed to the nearby precinct, relentlessly stepping on the gas.
As he forcefully opened the glass door and entered, he saw Eun Ha’s back as she sat quietly in front of a police officer.
“Ah, are you the guardian?”
“……Yes.”
Siwoo, momentarily at a loss for words, hesitated before nodding.
“Yes, I am her guardian.”
“She has been accused of fare evasion.”
“I paid the fare.”
She had paid 2000 won, interrupting the police officer. Eun Ha lifted her head.
At that time, the base taxi fare was around 1600 won.
“What era do you think this is, trying to take a taxi for 2000 won?! Young lady, are you mocking the world?”
[The familiar ‘Cat Wandering in Darkness’ threatens to pluck out the few remaining hairs on that guy’s head.] [I’m sure I’ve been grooming my claws for this moment all along.]“Now, now, calm down.”
As the police officer tried to calm the taxi driver, Eun Ha stared at the yellow message window with dry eyes. Calm down, you too. That was the message.
“I knew something was strange when she hailed my taxi like that! In my 10 years of driving, I’ve never had such an absurd passenger, never!”
Despite the police officer’s attempts to pacify him, the taxi driver yelled loudly in frustration.
[The familiar ‘Cat Wandering in Darkness’ that guy is—]Meanwhile, Siwoo finally managed to understand the situation. As he stared at Eun Ha with frightened eyes, she blinked her pitchblack eyes.
“Why?”
“……No.”
There was no point in blaming anyone. Since he knew that she was a person from 30 years ago, blaming her was not appropriate.
Siwoo took his wallet from his back pocket and handed the taxi driver two pieces of paper.
“I’m sorry. This friend is a bit… ill. I hope you’ll understand.”
“No, even so, this is ridiculous. I’ve never seen such an unreasonable person in my life—.”
The taxi driver’s eyes bulged.
￦1,000,000
The two pieces of paper that Siwoo hastily handed over were checks.
So Siwoo just casually handed over two million won to the taxi driver.
“Ah, ah, so much…”
The taxi driver, who had been redfaced, suddenly became docile as a lamb. It seemed that the golden rule still held true, even after 10 or 30 years.
Eun Ha glanced at Siwoo’s profile with a trembling face. Although it was unfortunate that she had become a sick friend, Siwoo had been summoned here to clean up after her. He shouldn’t cause any more trouble.
“You must have been inconvenienced by coming all the way to the police station. Please accept this. She didn’t do this intentionally. If you have any additional charges, please contact me.”
After receiving the cash and business card, the taxi driver scratched his head awkwardly.
“Well, strange things happen in life.”
Heh heh heh. The taxi driver, now laughing cheerfully, fortunately didn’t pursue Eun Ha any further.
Somehow, Eun Ha was able to safely escape the police station.
“Senior, you know, right? The current base fare for taxis in Seoul is 5500 won. With a latenight surcharge, it’s 6100 won. What you did is almost no different from robbery.”
As Eun Ha gradually realized the 30year gap, Siwoo was also feeling more and more that she was a person from 30 years ago.
Eun Ha, seated in the passenger seat, was looking out the window with her usual expressionless face. There was no sign of remorse.
“I told him I didn’t know, but he took me straight to the police station.”
“You should’ve called me.”
Siwoo stopped midsentence.
Right. Eun Ha didn’t have a cell phone. She couldn’t call anyone for help or advice.
Siwoo, realizing this, awkwardly turned his head and held the steering wheel.
“……No, never mind. So where were you trying to go, Senior?”
“The grave.”
With a simple and straightforward answer, Siwoo was momentarily speechless, and he stared at her through the rearview mirror.
With a serene face, Eun Ha slowly stroked her left wrist.
“My mother. The day the Gate first opened, she was crushed by a rift. If, as you say, 30 years
A brief silence passed.
Soon the signal changed, but Siwoo, who had grabbed the wheel, didn’t lift his foot from the brake.
Behind them, a horn honked.
“……Where is the location?”
As he took his foot off the brake, Siwoo opened his mouth. Eunha suddenly felt him looking at her.
“It will be troublesome if you’re taken to the police station alone again, so come with me.”
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.]
