After leaving the court and having a slightly early dinner, the two of them came to Chae Yoon’s house.
Once there, they enjoyed some fruit, sipped fragrant tea, and chatted away, spending some pleasant time together.
Up to this point, both Chae Yoon and Jae Oh were in good spirits.
However, as the night grew late, a problem arose.
Chae Yoon expressed her opinion that since he had hurt his wrist, it didn’t concern her how he got home and urged him to leave quickly.
“You said you’d only stay until your wrist gets better, right?”
“So, I’m fine with my wrist. I took some medicine, and since it’s my left hand, I don’t use it much. Don’t worry, just go home quickly.”
Jae Oh looked at Chae Yoon as if he couldn’t understand her strong desire to send him away.
Chae Yoon understood what Jae Oh’s expression meant, but she pretended not to and gently pushed him aside.
“Grandfather is worried. Please, go quickly.”
“What nonsense.”
Jae Oh stubbornly resisted, wearing an expression that he didn’t want to leave.
Then, strength entered Chae Yoon’s eyes.
As she silently stared, Jae Oh felt the piercing gaze and quickly tried to change his expression.
With just a slight roll of his eyes, Jae Oh glanced down at Chae Yoon and nodded curtly.
“All right. I’m going. I’m leaving.”
As soon as the words left his mouth, Chae Yoon, who had been narrowing her eyes, suddenly broke into a wide smile.
Seeing Chae Yoon’s bright smile, Jae Oh suddenly felt a pang of sadness.
Was there even room for such a smile?
Unlike just a few minutes ago when Jae Oh couldn’t get his mind off Chae Yoon’s smile, now he felt a sense of disappointment as he furrowed his brow and asked,
“Do you really want me to go this badly?”
I don’t want to be apart for even a moment, and it feels like I won’t have enough of her even if we stay together. Why is she trying so hard to send me away?
Is she really the woman who said she doesn’t want to be alone?
On top of that, my wrist is uncomfortable, so what on earth…
A sigh escaped involuntarily. As Jae Oh looked at Chae Yoon, who was smiling at him, and then at Si Hyun’s distant gaze, he wondered what was going on in their minds.
No matter how much he thought about it, he couldn’t understand, but Chae Yoon voluntarily expressed her feelings.
“I’m going to miss you too, Oppa.”
His vision, which had been blurred as he was lost in thought, suddenly became clear.
“But why do you keep sending me away?”
“I like the feeling of missing you.”
Jae Oh tilted his head to one side.
Why would that be a good thing?
Watching Chae Yoon silently in response to words that he couldn’t quite empathize with, Chae Yoon smiled awkwardly and licked her lips.
“It’s like this when you’re in love, I guess.”
It was the emotion she felt when she had given him a one-month grace period.
She hadn’t shown it outwardly, but every time she came home with a hint of regret about the breakup, she invariably received a call from him.
It was a simple greeting asking if she had arrived safely, but hearing his voice over the phone felt strangely comforting.
The excitement she felt on her way to see the face she hadn’t seen all night was beyond words.
Such emotions couldn’t be felt unless they were apart.
Furthermore, since they hadn’t confirmed each other’s feelings before, Chae Yoon wanted to continue sending him this longing and nervousness for a while.
On the other hand, hearing Chae Yoon’s words made Jae Oh feel like he had been hit on the head.
The reason he wanted to be apart was that he wanted to feel the excitement of being in love.
The reason seemed to be that I couldn’t even think about it when I woke up as if I had died.
I’ve never considered myself dumb, but somehow, standing in front of this woman, I feel like the dumbest guy in the world.
Jae Oh, feeling the loss of words due to his inadequacy in understanding Chae Yoon’s feelings, looked at her and said, “Well, if you want to feel that way, just tell me to go.”
Chae Yoon smiled brightly and shrugged her shoulders.
“It’s nice to see you resisting leaving because you don’t want to go.”
Another unexpected response came out.
Jae Oh’s words were completely blocked.
Without being able to respond, he just looked at her. Chae Yoon, as if she were delighted to death, smiled and said, “Now that you know my heart, go rest.”
She had revealed the reason for sending him off, so he thought he would leave immediately, but he was still motionless.
“Aren’t you going?”
“…….?”
“Oppa?”
Silently, Jae Oh’s gaze on Chae Yoon shifted.
Instead of heading to the entrance, he approached Chae Yoon and embraced her.
Her small body nestled snugly in his wide arms. It was a careful touch, for some reason.
Unlike the suffocating embrace of that afternoon, this one had a different feeling. Chae Yoon closed her eyes, feeling a pleasant shiver.
His scent, carried on the breeze, was comforting. Snuggling against him, holding it deep in her lungs, she soon felt her strength gradually returning to the arms that were holding her.
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.
