Thinking about last night, Taeyeon’s cheeks turned red at Dojun’s words.
Taeyeon glanced at the tightly closed conference room door and whispered quietly.
“Thank you for your consideration.”
Dojun smiled brightly and reached out, wrapping his arms around Taeyeon’s waist.
“Dojun!”
Even though the conference room interior was not visible due to the opaque treatment, it was a place anyone could enter.
As Taeyeon tried to break free, Dojun held her even tighter.
“Where does it hurt the most?”
Not getting an answer, Dojun continued holding her.
“My back.”
“And?”
In fact, it wasn’t just the back; the muscles all over her body were tense and painful—thighs, shoulders, everywhere.
“If you’re tired, you can leave early.”
As Taeyeon was about to say something.
Footsteps were heard from outside.
Hearing that sound, Taeyeon pushed Dojun away abruptly.
When the distance between them had widened.
Someone forcefully opened the conference room door.
Taeyeon froze with wide eyes.
On the other hand, Dojun looked at the intruder with a very relaxed face, as if he was looking at the one who ruined the good atmosphere.
“What’s going on, Manager Chae.”
As Taeyeon was leaning against the door, she couldn’t see who entered.
For curious Taeyeon’s sake, Dojun deliberately seemed to have called him by his name.
“Oh, I dropped my pen here and…”
Chae walked quickly to the place where he had been sitting during the meeting.
And after pulling out the chair, he bent down and picked up something, lowering his waist.
When Chae stood up, the pen was held in his hand as if showing off.
Shaking it, he showed a friendly smile.
“I left this behind.”
Whether Chae came to pick up the pen he left or for some other reason, he left the conference room without saying anything.
Taeyeon belatedly checked if her clothes were disheveled.
“Dojun, we should be more careful at work.”
“Don’t I look inconspicuous enough now?”
“We need to be careful about things we didn’t pay attention to.”
“What are you talking about?”
Taeyeon conveyed what Yunji had told her earlier this morning.
Dojun’s face seemed to be pricked by something he hadn’t thought of.
“Oh.”
“I was quite surprised too.”
“That’s why they say office romance knows everything except for the photocopier.”
Agreeing with that statement, Taeyeon nodded.
“I’ll try to restrain myself as much as possible. At work.”
“Yes, thank you.”
Taeyeon closed her eyes and smiled, then quickly left the conference room.
At the same time, the men’s restroom.
Chae plugged in his earphones and laughed while listening to something.
“Hahaha. Isn’t this insane?”
Chae took out one earphone, and while holding the fountain pen in his hand, he stared at it.
It was the recording pen he intentionally left behind during the meeting.
“The recording quality is better than I thought.”
Ignoring the fact that he himself was committing an illegal act, Shirak chuckled heartily.
“Are those two in that kind of relationship?”
Dojun’s words to me meant it wasn’t just idle talk.
“Hold on.”
Shirak suddenly recalled a forgotten fact.
“Manager Jin said she’s married, right?”
Since she rarely talked about her husband at work, it was easy to forget, but strictly speaking, she was a married woman.
“Right. Her husband is abroad, so she’s close with her superior at work. Ugh.”
These people who don’t look like much are adding up, and Taeyeon is probably the same, thought Shirak, chuckling.
“Ah, isn’t this kind of information something you have to pay for?”
Chuckling, Shirak flushed the toilet and walked out.
“Hic. Director, Director?”
Encountering someone who shouldn’t be here, Shirak was shocked, as if he had seen a ghost.
Then, he dropped the pen he was holding on the bathroom floor with a thud.
Dojun’s gaze slowly lowered.
And he personally bent down, picked up the pen, and handed it to him.
Shirak’s fingertips trembled.
He quickly hid his hands behind his back and cleared his throat.
Dojun’s gaze was still on the pen.
“Do you cherish this?”
“Yes? Oh, yes.”
Shirak quickly reached out, seemingly asking for it.
Instead of giving it to Shirak, Dojun turned the pen around on the back of his hand.
“You cherish it a lot.”
“Yes, that’s right…”
Shirak’s mouth dried up.
Everything Taeyeon and Dojun said was recorded in it.
If he were caught with it, everything would be over.
Dojun smirked and looked at Shirak with a cold gaze.
“How much do you cherish it?”
While still gazing at the pen, Dojun continued speaking.
“Enough to bring it to the bathroom?”
The gaze Dojun gave was so chilling that it seemed to pierce through Shirak.
Wiping his sweaty hands on his pants, Shirak casually replied, “Oh, this is somewhat expensive.”
It was indeed expensive.
It wasn’t just a pen; it had a recording function, so it wasn’t cheap.
It was an overspending after a long time, but he bought it thinking it would be useful.
Shirak couldn’t take his eyes off the pen in Dojun’s hand.
Dojun, with a sly smile, handed the pen to Shirak.
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…?
