He lightly patted Line’s bottom, which didn’t even touch the chair. He restrained himself from hitting her forcefully, even though he wanted to.
Line was surprised to see Song Kang. When did he follow her… Even though he behaved so rudely, why did he follow her like this…
“I want to be alone, why do you keep following me!”
Line, still lacking the courage to face Song Kang, blurted out words that contradicted her feelings. Song Kang embraced her even though she tried to push him away with all her might even within the coat. But realizing that trying to resist Song Kang with her small frame was a cheeky idea in itself.
And although she felt sorry for Ju-hyuk… she couldn’t deny any longer that she had yielded to Song Kang.
“Let’s stop. I know it’s heartbreaking, and I’m sad too… Let’s stop and go.”
Her strength seemed to drain from her body, and she sobbed in his arms. It was even more heart-wrenching because his embrace was so warm that she didn’t want to escape.
Soon, Line tightly embraced his waist. Despite everything, this person was too good.
“Can’t I do it? Someone more like family than family. Becoming a family doesn’t seem like a bad thing.”
He wouldn’t have said those words without understanding the meaning of him becoming family. His warm words melted her body. Line pushed him away to say what she wanted and looked straight into his eyes.
“I’m sorry to Senior Ju-hyuk…! Sniff…”
She was about to say something, but Song Kang’s patience ran out again with the mention of Senior Ju-hyuk.
“Even so, Director… Sniff… I like you.”
When Line decided to open up her feelings, it felt refreshing.
“What did you just… say?”
Song Kang’s world stopped at Line’s words.
“If you didn’t hear, never mind.”
Feeling embarrassed even to say it, Line sniffled and turned her head away. Song Kang embraced Line again.
Wanting to hear the words “I like you” twice was a big greed. Still, he felt like he could fly into the sky.
As Line’s body relaxed in his arms, Song Kang lifted her like a child and put her in the car.
“How far did we walk just now? We walked 16 km. Moreover, in the opposite direction of Seoul.”
“How did you know I was here, Director?”
“Did you think I would leave Prosecutor Jin La-in alone and go towards Seoul? I followed you. I turned on the lights and followed you from behind. I don’t know how far you would have walked stubbornly. You didn’t even notice, even with the lights on.”
Feeling embarrassed, Line leaned back, looking out of the window.
Song Kang held Line’s cold hand to share warmth. She had to pull out this much physical and mental strength to follow… Still, she was glad that she didn’t break and followed him.
After that, Ju-hyuk, who used to come looking for Line every day, stopped visiting. Communication was the same.
Line wasn’t someone who was deeply attached to relationships, but it didn’t work well for Ju-hyuk. She was worried about him, but she didn’t have the courage to contact him first.
Line was barely holding onto her uneasy feelings. Then, Hae-in contacted her.
Senior… The prosecution has applied for your testimony in the reinstatement trial.
“It’s possible. What’s the problem?”
Line said indifferently.
That… It’s Prosecutor Yoon Nan-seul.
Yoon Nan-seul might come out. But with the word ‘And,’ Line was nervous.
“Is the other one Senior Ju-hyuk, by any chance?”
Line’s guess was correct.
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
