Jaeha put down the empty glass he had been holding anywhere nearby. Then, while thoroughly enjoying the scene unfolding below his eyes, he brushed aside the strands of hair that had fallen onto his forehead.
The university campus where they first met as adults.
His appearance, unwelcomed by hazel eyes that were indifferent and cold, sank indifferently. Although more beautiful than occasionally seen in photos, she did not smile. He had resented himself for not pulling her out of the exhausting life sooner. Yet, one couldn’t say that the time Jaeha had lived as Kyle Alexis was entirely bitter.
“Want more water?”
No[Dash] lying on the bed, Eunjo turned her head sideways. Jaeha, who endlessly loved the state of Yoon Eunjo, hanging on to her will, principles, and even her reason, seemed as if she had abandoned herself. She clung, squeezed, and ultimately threw herself into simple and instinctive ecstasy.
Unwilling to admit how passionate she was, she struggled as if not wanting to acknowledge it to herself. Messy hair, sweaty, delicate white body. Eyes that had undoubtedly lost focus, slackened from lethargy. Irregular, rough breaths that still persisted. Everything was perfect.
Jaeha leaned back next to her again.
“Eunjo, look at me.”
“Leave me alone… feels like I’m going to die.”
Jaeha, who let out a low laugh, aligned his lips with the round and slender shoulders.
Whether the chill remaining on his lips was transmitted or not, she shivered slightly.
He had no intention of tormenting her further, but her appearance was still provocative.
Jaeha, who swallowed a hot breath, inserted his fingers into the tangled long hair as always.
Eunjo stared blankly at the new window with hazy eyes.
…
…Is the saying true that if you get tired, you let it go?
When exactly?
And how can it be made tiresome?
If Jaeha were Yoon Eunjo, would there be a way to make him sick of it?
Eunjo looked at the ring hanging on her finger.
The diamond gathered the small lights in the room and sparkled brilliantly.
“…Has Jenice ever been sick?”
“How did you know? And it’s a completely unexpected question.”
“What question did you expect?”
“No, I don’t really want to blurt it out.”
“…If it’s about the engagement, I’m not interested either.”
Engagement, whether it’s 3 billion or 6 billion, doesn’t matter. The monstrous self was too dreadful to think of anything else.
“Before the engagement ceremony, Jenice was diagnosed with a recurrence of breast cancer. They said it could be as short as six months or as long as a year.”
“…….”
“So, if you ask me why we got engaged, well, at the time, I didn’t think so, but now I wonder if it had no effect at all. I don’t really know. Lately, I feel like a fool.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Eunjo suddenly rose from her seat.
“So, if you ask me why we got engaged, well, at the time, I didn’t think so, but now I wonder if it had no effect at all. I don’t really know. Lately, I feel like a fool.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Eunjo suddenly rose from her seat.
“Why? To wash? Why bother, lie down again quickly.”
“I want to wash, and I want to sleep in my room. Do I need to stay longer?”
“Yoon Eunjo, what are you talking about? If you’re tired, sleep here.”
In the faint light, Jaeha’s face looked wrinkled, but Eunjo picked up the nightgown under the bed.
“It’s too uncomfortable having someone next to me. Maybe it’s been too long since I’ve been alone, but I can’t sleep deeply.”
Eunjo looked down at the diamond shining on her finger.
Jenice’s intentions were appreciated, but it was the same as Kwon Jaeha.
Without pulling out the soul, there is only an empty shell.
Impressive, but still lacking.
Eunjo tried to take off the ring from her finger once again.
“Annoying! Why is it like this, really!”
“Just leave it, think it’s not there.”
“Displaying my presence so dazzlingly, how can you say that? It’s the same story! This was not something I wanted to do; it’s too uncomfortable. It’s annoying. It’s not worth much to me.”
“…….”
“I’ll go.”
Looking at Jaeha’s momentarily surprised face, Eunjo immediately turned her back.
Contrary to concerns, he did not follow.
Such days passed for some time.
Pretending not to know as if it were someone else’s business, indulging only in instincts, Yoon Eunjo pursued only the sweetness in front of her like a fool with no memory, no knowledge.
She spent a frustrating time, as if wandering in the darkness.
And when the ring, unnecessarily sparkling on her finger, seemed to become indifferent, she received a call.
The nun had already returned three days ago.
Eunjo, who received the contact belatedly, left work early and calmly put on a black suit at home.
Various emotions were complicatedly mixed.
Sadness, guilt, shame, longing…
Not contacting the nun frequently[Dash]no, not contacting her at all was, of course, due to cohabitation.
Moreover, since starting to share a bed with Kwon Jaeha, she was reluctant to make phone calls with a seemingly innocent face as if nothing had happened.
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
