As Chae-yoon sighed with closed eyes, Manager Jung’s pupils trembled confusingly.
‘Honey…?’
There was no time to figure out why that term of address came out.
Manager Jung, whose attention was stolen by the sound of Jae-oh’s footsteps, stared at the approaching Jae-oh.
The Executive who walked towards them stopped precisely in front of Song Chae-yoon.
“What’s wrong? Are you hurt?”
The naturally asked voice was affectionate. The gaze directed at Song Chae-yoon was also peculiar.
The expression on Manager Jung’s face, which seemed to be filled with even more affection than what was seen in the parking lot, left Manager Jung’s mouth wide open.
Manager Jung, without even thinking about covering her opened mouth, alternately looked at Jae-oh and Chae-yoon.
At that moment, Song Chae-yoon, who had closed her eyes with a faint grimace, opened her eyes wide. The gaze she gave to Jae-oh, without saying a word, was sharp.
“…”
The woman who seemed mild and gentle disappeared, and the pupils that seemed to be able to shoot a few words or grab the neck in an instant were sharp. Seeing this reaction, Jae-oh’s mouth twitched as if he were about to say something.
It seemed like he was going to get hit.
Even if he were to be hit, there was nothing to say. Understanding the reason for Chae-yoon’s reaction so well, Jae-oh smiled, putting his arm around her slender shoulders.
Manager Jung, whose eyes widened to the limit at the sight that seemed to make the phrase “Oh my God” come out involuntarily, was captivated as if possessed, staring at her.
When he looked at Song Chae-yoon, who was emitting an affectionate light, the eyes of Jae-oh, who had been looking at Chae-yoon, moved.
His slow-moving eyes stopped the moment they met Manager Jung.
The smile Jae-oh had on, full of affection for Song Chae-yoon, vanished when he saw Manager Jung, as if the warm smile he had on was a mere illusion.
His shoulders involuntarily slumped. Feeling the chill from Manager Jung’s freezing intensity, Manager Jung couldn’t even greet properly and lowered her eyes subtly.
As Manager Jung’s gaze left her, Jae-oh tightened his grip on Chae-yoon’s shoulder, giving her a reassuring smile, and led her into the office.
The sound of footsteps walking in sync echoed, and not long after, the sound of the door closing with a thud reverberated through the air.
Manager Jung, who had lifted her eyes from the falling snow, stared at the firmly closed office door.
[Have you greeted the lady?]Ah, she sighed.
“What should I do?”
Her crumpled face was full of embarrassment.
[A star icon]“I feel like my face is going to burst.”
“…”
“If you’re going to keep glaring at me, sit down and glare. Does your leg hurt?”
“…,”
“Yeah, it hurts, right? Let’s sit.”
Jae-oh, who questioned and answered alone, bent down to lift Chae-yoon, but as he did, she raised her hand and slapped around his shoulders. Then, Jae-oh’s waist straightened.
The glare in Chae-yoon’s eyes, as if scolding him, made Jae-oh’s lips twitch.
“I can’t hide it for long anyway.”
“Then don’t hide it. I’ll just enjoy it alone…”
In the moment of hesitation about what to say about Manager Jung, Chae-yoon, who was staring at Jae-oh’s actions, took a deep breath without saying anything.
With her eyes closed, Chae-yoon’s face, struggling to control her emotions, caught Jae-oh’s gaze. Seeing her determined appearance, I don’t know why I keep laughing. Jae-oh felt his lips involuntarily stretching as he observed.
“I told you, just because I called you ‘honey,’ doesn’t mean we’re a married couple.”
The eyes that were closed were opened.
“A moment ago, Assistant Yang asked if you greeted the lady. After that, you called me ‘honey.'”
“So, we were caught because of Assistant Yang.”
Chae-yoon’s eyes, sharp again at Jae-oh’s shameless shifting of responsibility, became even more pointed.
Among the things she had seen, the eyes that had changed most fiercely seemed like the eyes of someone saying all sorts of harsh words, not just cursing.
Jae-oh, pointing to Chae-yoon’s line of sight with his hand, said, “Ouch, nice words.”
Although he didn’t even smile, the words were so absurd that Chae-yoon pushed his hand away and glared at him. Jae-oh’s eyes looked even more charming.
“I know I was wrong.”
“…”
“I know.”
“The person who knows… I said I couldn’t trust you because of this.”
“Oh, so that’s why? Now you know me better than I know myself.”
Feeling good.
With an expanding smile, the joyous yet natural look in his eyes made Chae-yoon unintentionally sigh.
He used to complain about trust issues and now he’s in a good mood.
“Really…”
Looking at him with eyes that seemed to say, “Are all men like this?” his agile eyes looked even more attractive.
“Don’t laugh.”
His eyes became thinner, and he bit his lower lip, looking at her. However, the smiling expression on his handsome face did not disappear.
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…?
