My Line (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 2
“Ra In, but still, you can’t just hit Na Song Gang like that.”
Prosecutor Choi Ju Hyuk followed Ra In, wearing an even more awkward expression than the person involved.
“Senior, this was mutual. No, actually, it was self-defense. I mean, who even grabs someone else’s wrist like that…!”
Ra In’s ears turned red, and she blinked rapidly before quickly trailing off. Her hurried footsteps toward the office revealed her still unsettled emotions.
She was already feeling suffocated, and seeing the office filled to the brim with evidence files made her breath catch in her throat.
They claimed it was only 100,000 pages, but stacked up like this, the sheer volume made the room feel cramped.
Ra In let out a deep sigh and slumped into her seat. Ju Hyuk sat down beside her on the pile of documents stacked up to hip height and crossed his arms.
“Anyway, good job out there. That Head of Legal Affairs guy came in clearly set on causing trouble. I was so anxious outside, worrying you’d finally lose your temper.”
Ra In didn’t react much to Ju Hyuk’s words. She just sat there, her expression heavy with thought—about the man who had seized her wrist and about the case surrounding him…
“Doesn’t this feel strange?”
Ra In nodded in response to Ju Hyuk’s question.
“But… why? Why Na Song Gang of all people?”
Prosecutor Choi Ju Hyuk’s unspoken question was exactly where Ra In’s own doubts lay. Na Song Gang was the eldest son of the Taesung family and the son of the late legal wife.
Moreover, he was the only person capable of shouldering the future of the Taesung Group. Although Chairman Na had remarried and fathered a son and a daughter with his new wife, their reputations weren’t good.
Everyone knew that among Chairman Na’s children, Na Song Gang was the only viable successor.
“Given how much public attention this case has drawn, Taesung probably judged that it couldn’t be resolved by just making anyone take the fall,”
Still, too many things felt off. Ra In stood up, grabbed a random piece of evidence, and began flipping through it.
It was a childhood family photo of Song Gang with his mother and Chairman Na. The evidence volume was overwhelming, yet its contents were all like this.
Na Song Gang’s height, weight, blood type, alma mater, military service record—even this kind of personal detail. Amid such baffling submissions, all evidence pointed in one direction:
as if urging them to arrest Na Song Gang immediately.
Ra In meticulously examined every single piece of evidence they’d sent, even if it seemed like overkill. None of it was proper evidence, so she had no choice but to scrutinize every last detail.
“I heard Na Song Gang is famously aloof in the business world. But he’s not reckless—he’s known for having clear principles and boundaries. If anything, it’s Chairman Na’s new wife’s children who keep causing scandals.”
She recalled his expression—he had clearly wanted to say something more. But why hadn’t he spoken up? He certainly wouldn’t be worried about what the legal team thought from his position.
The case laid everything out like an open-book test, practically revealing the culprit’s identity outright.
Yet something still felt deeply unsettling. Though higher-ups kept pressing them to wrap things up quickly, the two prosecutors’ instincts held them back.
“There shouldn’t be anyone unjustly punished under the law.”
It’d be nice if the accused would just speak up and claim their innocence themselves.
“Again today, Director Na Song Gang opened a path for us—but he answered none of the questions, and his attorneys all maintained their right to silence. It’s really strange. It’s as if he doesn’t care whether he gets actual prison time. Is he unaware… or does he have a reason to take the fall knowingly?”
Ra In was so convinced he wasn’t the culprit that she’d even used the phrase “taking the fall.” A single testimony claiming the signature “Na Song–” was his couldn’t possibly confirm guilt.
Above all, the more evidence the Taesung Legal Department submitted, the further Director Na Song Gang seemed to drift from suspicion.
Most notably, the documents he’d approved rarely bore his handwritten signature—he mostly used his official seal. Without even sending it for detailed forensic analysis yet, it already appeared the handwriting wasn’t his.
Moreover, whenever he did write by hand—using his usual fountain pen—all documents appeared to be written with the same pen. As the evidence piled up, it consistently confirmed Director Na Song Gang’s standardized workflow.
“Could Chairman Na be the real culprit? Is his son sacrificing himself for his father? Is that it?”
Ra In picked up the evidence files on her desk and carefully examined them again. They contained photos of the disputed documents signed “Na Song–.” If it wasn’t Director Na Song Gang, then whose signature was it…?
“What else can we do? Even if it’s a trap, if the person caught in it doesn’t struggle, they’ll die.”
A trap… From Ra In’s perspective, he was undeniably caught in one.
If he didn’t fight with everything he had to escape now, he’d be sentenced to prison—and during his sentence, Taesung would likely undergo major changes.
In the worst case, even his position as successor wouldn’t be guaranteed. And Na Song Gang, of all people, surely understood that better than anyone…
Yet throughout the investigation, his demeanor suggested something firmly held his feet in place—something that even seemed to blindfold and deafen him.
“If the more you struggle to survive, the deeper the trap cuts into your flesh and severs your bones… then sometimes, you just stop fighting.”
Ra In pulled back from thoughts that had wandered too far and sat down again. She slipped a thimble onto her thumb. Ju Hyuk also sat down to continue reviewing the evidence.
“We’ll see. That’s all.”
Despite having devoted all their efforts so far to reading through the evidence submitted by Taesung’s Legal Department, Ra In and Ju Hyuk had significantly accelerated their investigation after the summons.
***
Attorney Cha Hae In had compiled Prosecutor Jin Ra In’s profile as instructed by Director Na Song Gang and now walked up to deliver it.
She rarely got to meet Director Na Song Gang directly like this—unless it was a full legal department meeting. Entering his office alone was unprecedented for her.
Following the secretary’s guidance, Hae In stepped inside the office. There sat he—radiating an imposing presence.
Song Gang had been eagerly awaiting Attorney Cha Hae In’s arrival. He set aside the documents he’d been reviewing and rose from his seat.
Even this small movement from Song Gang made Hae In tense up instantly. His aura was unmatched—not merely due to his tall, robust frame,
but because, title aside, he was widely recognized as a highly capable executive. This was evident just from how steep Taesung’s growth curve had become under his leadership compared to Chairman Na’s era.
With razor-sharp precision, every project he drove yielded successful results, steadily elevating the company’s value. Employees following this perfectionist had to constantly learn, endure criticism, and push themselves to the bone.
Hae In had long been familiar with his style, which only made her more nervous—terrified of making even the slightest mistake.
“Have a seat.”
Hae In had assumed she’d just hand over Jin Ra In’s profile and leave, so his invitation to sit left her mind blank. While she stood dazed, Song Gang eventually sat down first.
“Are you planning to stand while we talk?”
Snapping back to reality at his question, Hae In respectfully placed the file in front of him and took her seat. Song Gang picked up the file without a word and began carefully reviewing its contents.
Prosecutor Jin Ra In—topped her entrance and graduation exams at Korea University Law School, ranked first at the Judicial Research and Training Institute. Her record was flawless.
Song Gang’s gaze lingered on her photo. Her straight, gleaming eyes were brimming with determination.
Even in a photograph, her eyes sharply pricked at his composure. For a fleeting moment, he nearly reached toward his cheek where her hand had brushed past that day.
Hae In swallowed nervously. The wait for Song Gang to finish reading felt unbearably tense—she was anxious he’d find fault with her work, given how meticulous he was.
“Prosecutor Jin Ra In…”
Song Gang started to say something but stopped, staring intently at her photo instead. She was hard to define.
“You must’ve felt very uncomfortable that day.”
Saying she hadn’t would’ve been a lie.
“Do you know anything about this prosecutor? This profile alone doesn’t tell me much.”
“Well… um…”
He wanted to know who Prosecutor Jin Ra In truly was.
Whether she was genuinely trustworthy—and, above all, capable of handling this matter. He didn’t want to rely solely on gut feeling; he needed concrete verification.
“She’s an exceptionally skilled investigator. Once she sets a goal, she’s remarkably effective at drawing people in.”
“Well, given this background and how she acted that day, it makes sense. You’re both Korea University Law School alumni, right?”
“Yes, that’s correct. She’s my senior.”
“What was she like back in college?”
Hae In rolled her eyes slightly, thinking back. The image of her senior from those days came into sharp focus—but she hesitated, unsure if she should say it outright.
“Just speak freely—share what you know. I’m asking because I need to assess whether she’s someone I can establish contact with.”
That day, there’d been no room left even for teeth to fit in. Right now, gathering intel was all he could do.
“She was… noticeable in appearance.”
Hae In paused briefly, gauging Director Na’s reaction.
“Oh? And?”
“She was nicknamed ‘Law School Goddess’ because of her looks—but, quite the opposite, also ‘Law School Crazy…’ due to her temper.”
He could guess the rest without hearing it.
“Well, that was just rumors, of course. She wasn’t a bad person—just very principled even back then. Once she took a stand for justice, she never backed down. Then and now… Personally, I believe that’s exactly how legal professionals should be. Then and now…”
Without realizing it, Hae In found herself defending Ra In while subtly checking Song Gang’s reaction. Surprisingly, he nodded in agreement.
Indeed, that’s exactly how Song Gang had perceived her too. She didn’t come across as arrogantly reckless—rather, as someone with solid confidence.
He began to understand that this confidence stemmed from her strong principles and the competence to uphold them.
“So practically speaking, groundwork will be difficult.”
“I see.”
Song Gang fell silent, and the pressure of that quiet made Hae In feel as if her body had floated off the ground.
Song Gang calmly gathered his thoughts. Although Attorney Cha Hae In belonged to the Legal Department, he needed to carefully decide whether to trust her or remain cautious. But based on his observations, she seemed a genuinely humane person.
“Does the Legal Department truly intend to prove my innocence?”
Hae In’s eyes flickered slightly at Song Gang’s blunt question. He didn’t answer immediately.
“What exactly is the Legal Department’s real strategy?”
Song Gang asked directly, without beating around the bush. He’d endured the Legal Department’s ambiguous stance for too long and now felt it was time to either commit or walk away—no more wasting energy on suspicion.
His silence hadn’t stemmed from ignorance; he’d been running around tirelessly, trying to uncover the full truth before the prosecutors did.
Of course, he’d scrutinized the Legal Department’s reports—and even instructed certain trusted staff separately—but all the intel he’d gotten from employees bribed by Geum Mo Ran turned up empty.
Now that his unanswered questions had been resolved through Prosecutor Jin Ra In, it was time to end the defensive phase.
“Are there two versions of the reports? One submitted to me, and another to Director Geum Mo Ran? I’m honestly curious which version Chairman Na receives.”
Though his blood boiled, Song Gang deliberately kept his composure—he’d been watching to see just how far the Legal Department would go.
Even the Head of Legal Affairs’ instruction to maintain silence clearly aimed to conceal the department’s broader scheme.
If he gave statements, inconsistencies with the Legal Department’s official claims would inevitably surface—and exposing the facts would put them in a difficult position. All his suspicions were confirmed during Prosecutor Jin Ra In’s summons.
Hae In, who’d come in expecting only to deliver the profile, now found herself trapped—unable to disclose what she knew. Had she realized she’d need to defend the Legal Department—and herself—she would’ve prepared more thoroughly. Instead, she’d stepped right on her own foot.
“Our Taesung Legal Department exists to protect the company from losses…”
As Hae In began reciting the standard corporate line, Song Gang twitched an eyebrow, clearly annoyed—and soon cut her off, as if he didn’t want to hear another word.
“I didn’t ask for the department’s charter.”
Hae In knew that too—she wasn’t being evasive out of ignorance. Her silence and demeanor alone spoke volumes to Song Gang.
“Then let’s consider this from another angle.”
Song Gang pushed Jin Ra In’s profile across the table toward Hae In.
“What do you think of this person?”
Hae In couldn’t quite grasp what plan Song Gang was formulating.
“Legal assistance isn’t limited to defense alone, is it?”
Hae In’s eyes shifted to the profile in front of her. Song Gang intended to clear his name not through defense—but through investigation.
“She seems capable. More than capable.”
Her voice carried conviction—and Song Gang shared the same judgment.
“What’s the plan for the next summons?”
“That decision rests with the Head of Legal Affairs.”
Song Gang had concluded he couldn’t continue working with a Legal Department that had deceived him. It was ironic—but unavoidable.
“Can you arrange my schedule without the Legal Department knowing?”
Hae In had fully intended to just submit Jin Ra In’s profile and leave—what on earth was happening now? With the condition “without the Legal Department knowing,” this wasn’t a simple question to answer.
“The Head of Legal Affairs doesn’t have authority over personnel decisions. That power rests with me.”
It was both subtle pressure and veiled persuasion.
“I’ll… try my best.”
Not long after, the prosecutors summoned Song Gang once again.
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.
