She even acknowledged it, and even sent a photo of them entering the same officetel to nail the point, why did he prevent her from leaving.
Ho Yeon’s face hardened for a moment as he gauged Jae Oh’s intentions.
‘Could it be… does he have feelings for her?’
Otherwise, the current situation could not be explained.
‘No, it’s not. It won’t be. Right, it can’t be.’
He kept denying it internally, but it didn’t feel good.
Then, the secretary standing in front of Ho Yeon said.
“Ah, and Director Han also canceled tonight’s schedule.”
Her eyes, which had been lost in thought, flashed like sharp, piercing blades.
“Do you not know why it was canceled?”
“Yes. Right after he came to work, he said no one should come in and then just asked to cancel the schedule.”
The situation before and after Jae Oh canceled the schedule started to spin quickly in her head.
‘Song Chae Yoon said she would leave, and I opposed it, and suddenly he canceled the dinner schedule too…’
It meant that there was a high chance of meeting Song Chae Yoon tonight.
Ho Yeon’s expression suddenly crumpled.
Just the thought of Jae Oh and Song Chae Yoon eating quietly somewhere alone made her head hot, perhaps because of a bad premonition.
‘No, it can’t happen.’
Ho Yeon, who couldn’t let that happen, thought about how to solve this situation.
Ho Yeon, with her eyes blazing, picked up the phone and called someone.
“Hello?”
A sharp voice flowed from Ho Yeon’s lips when she heard Kyung Hee’s voice.
“It’s me, ma’am.”
Oh, Ho Yeon, what’s the matter?
“Well, I’ve heard something a bit disturbing……”
Disturbing?
“Yes.”
Her voice answering was full of worry and concern.
“Song Chae Yoon said she would leave the house, but Jae Oh opposed it.”
Perhaps it was unexpected, Kyung Hee was silent for a moment.
“And he also canceled tonight’s schedule.”
……That is a bit strange.
“Right? So, I was thinking……”
Her eyes proposing something were burning darkly.
((()))
An hour before she got off work.
Ring.
Chae Yoon’s mobile phone rang.
While she was busy working, Chae Yoon moved her eyes from the monitor and checked the caller.
‘Small Mother’
After confirming that it was Kyung Hee, Chae Yoon quickly went outside to answer the call.
“Yes, small mother. Hello.”
Oh, Chae Yoon, are you busy?
“No, I’m okay. Why did you call?”
Well, that’s……
Kyung Hee paused for a moment as if it was hard to say.
Chae Yoon had a hunch at this point.
Whatever Kyung Hee’s purpose was, it wouldn’t be good news.
Chae Yoon clenched her lips as if to brace herself.
“Please feel free to speak.”
As she spoke calmly, Kyung Hee’s silence broke.
I heard something unpleasant. I thought I should talk to you about it, do you have time after work?
Her heart sank at the words ‘unpleasant news’.
The hand holding the phone tightened.
“I do have a plan… but… can I know what you’ve heard?”
It’s a bit difficult to talk about over the phone. Do you not have time?
The voice that flowed coldly seemed to insist on cancelling the promise. Chae Yoon’s pale face showed confusion.
“Hyun Woo oppa was the first to ask me to eat dinner…”
If someone is not meant to be, they break their nose even when they fall backward, the timing just didn’t match.
The constant misalignment of situations was bitter. Chae Yoon, feeling suffocated, unknowingly let out a light sigh and bit the inside of her lip.
At that moment, Kyung Hee’s awkward voice flowed into Chae Yoon’s ears.
“Looking at the delay in your response, it seems to be an important promise.”
Tsk, the voice as if clicking the tongue, was the first time Chae Yoon heard it. Moreover, it felt rather cold, so Chae Yoon answered sharply.
“Ah, I have planned to meet Jae Oh oppa.”
“Is that so? If that’s the case, you can just postpone it.”
Chae Yoon’s eyes widened slightly.
Up until now, it wasn’t Jae Oh, but Kyung Hee found Jae Oh difficult.
That Kyung Hee would say this, was proof that her current mood was not very good.
“Do you not like it?”
“No. I’ll postpone it.”
“Good. Oh, don’t say that you have to cancel the promise because of me. My head already hurts, if Jae Oh gets involved here… You know what I mean, right?”
Since Jae Oh had done something to Kyung Hee, Chae Yoon immediately answered.
“Yes. I understand.”
Kyung Hee’s lips spread satisfactorily as she got the information and answer she wanted.
((()))
The place where Kyung Hee wanted to meet was a restaurant they often visited. It was not too far from the company, so Chae Yoon arrived right on time.
Kyung Hee was in the hall, not in a room. It was a bit odd why she was in the hall, but seeing Kyung Hee pretending to know her, she couldn’t show her confusion for long.
“You came right on time. I ordered in advance because I thought you might be hungry. Is that okay?”
The coldness felt during their phone call was not present in her words delivered with a warm smile.
Thanks to that, Chae Yoon, who had been tense all the way, was able to let out a sigh of relief.
“Yes. It’s okay. Thank you.”
As she thanked her, Kyung Hee scanned Chae Yoon who sat in front of her.
‘She’s obedient and good because she’s meek…’
The problem was that Ji Phil cherished her too much.
“[You’re giving more shares to Chae Yoon?]”
“[Yeah. I’m not sure, but it seems like it.]”
“[That’s ridiculous. No, why?]”
“[Because then Jae Oh’s base becomes more solid.]”
“[Even so, you haven’t given anything to Su Han yet… Ah, father is really too much.]”
Reminiscing the conversation she had with Jung Woong while looking at Chae Yoon’s face, Kyung Hee grabbed the wine bottle next to her. Then, she abruptly poured the wine into the glass in front of Chae Yoon.
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.
