“I don’t know how much Yumi was hurt that day. She couldn’t properly confess to Jiho, and she wasn’t eating or talking for days after hearing that her sister and Jiho were dating. Moreover, it seems like Isu said something to Jiho at the airport, and Jiho treated Yumi coldly. Yet Yumi still wants to get along with Jiho like before, so she came this time, but she cried all the way since meeting Isu at the airport.”
Seeing Sumin’s dark expression, Yeonsu was perplexed about what to say.
Yeonsu sighed lightly, massaging her forehead.
“Oh, Yumi must have had a hard time.”
“Stop talking. Just today, Isu already knew we were coming but still showed up at the airport. Jiho must have known, and he didn’t say anything to you, right?”
“Yeah.”
“Isu probably told him to do that. She’s so cunning like that.”
Yeonsu frowned as she recalled Jiho’s words at the airport.
The more she heard from Sumin, the more the good impression of Isu was fading away.
“I’m worried that Jiho might stay at the hotel because of Isu. Rather than that, it’s better for us to leave on our own.”
“You’re my guests. Just stay here regardless of Jiho.”
Yeonsu said, patting Sumin’s back of the hand.
“It must have been tough for you to watch. It would have been better if Jiho had known Yumi’s feelings earlier. I feel sorry for everyone.”
Yeonsu sighed deeply.
She had expected to spend a quiet time with Jiho and Yumi after a long time, but it turned into an uncomfortable situation.
“How excited Yumi was about coming here and spending time with Jiho for the past few days… Forget it.”
“Oh, what can we do?”
“But Jiho doesn’t know about this, so don’t pretend to know. I didn’t want to tell you either, but it was too heartbreaking and frustrating.”
Yeonsu held Sumin’s hand, comforting her with a pat.
There was an unavoidable sense of guilt for Sumin, thinking about Yumi.
“Isu, what should we do tomorrow?”
“Tomorrow?”
“Because of the time difference, we’ll probably wake up early in the morning. How about meeting at the park?”
“Oh, I might be too tired, and why would we do something in the morning…”
On the way to Isu’s house, Jiho was already thinking about the plan for tomorrow.
“When do we meet then?”
“Well, let’s spend time with our families tomorrow. We won’t be able to stay here long since we’ll go on a trip in five days.”
When Jiho gently refused something, Isu brightly smiled, finding it quite effective.
“…”
“… Don’t you like it?”
Isu, holding Jiho’s fist, playfully smiled.
“If you say so, let’s do that.”
Isu gently patted Jiho’s head as he answered gloomily.
“Yeah. Because you listen well, you look pretty.”
“When will you ask me to see you first? I wonder if that day will ever come.”
“Oh, what are you talking about? I miss you too, but you’re always the first to speak.”
Jiho’s tightly closed lips curled down.
His expression indicated disbelief in Isu’s words.
“Really. Don’t you trust me?”
Instead of answering, Jiho pulled Isu into a hug.
He wanted to express his regret for not being able to see her tomorrow.
Isu also tightly hugged Jiho as if she understood that sentiment.
After a while, the Uber arrived in the neighborhood where Isu’s mom lived.
“We’re almost there. Jiho, you take this and go straight.”
“Straight?”
“Yeah, Mom will be waiting. You should go quickly.”
There was nothing planned after getting off, but Isu, who had been thinking only about seeing Jiho off since the airport, felt somewhat disappointed.
Even now, Isu’s expression was content, without any regrets.
Having sensed Jiho’s feelings, Isu smiled gently and said softly,
“If Mom gets jealous, saying she took away her beloved son, what should I do?”
“That’s absurd.”
“It makes sense. Women are like that. Since Mom is a woman, it’s natural. If you don’t know well, just do as I say.”
“Ha…”
Jiho sighed.
“Should I believe that?”
Isu patted Jiho’s shoulder lightly.
By doing so, the car arrived in front of the house.
After unloading all the luggage from the car trunk, Jiho lightly hugged Isu.
“Get in safely. Don’t turn off your phone. Answer calls right away, and reply to texts promptly.”
“Got it. I’ll keep it on and close by.”
With a face filled with lingering regret, Jiho got back into the car.
Every day, Yeonsu and her husband ate together, but when she tried to prepare a guest meal for once, her mind was completely elsewhere.
Despite the desire to set a delicious and hearty table, Yeonsu’s cooking skills and speed didn’t quite keep up.
Thanks to the skilled Sumin helping, they managed to finish preparing dinner on time.
“You must be tired. What’s this in the kitchen right after arriving?”
Yeonsu couldn’t refuse the awkwardly smiling Sumin, who stepped forward to help.
With so many dishes spread out, it would take until midnight to finish properly, so the inexperienced Sumin had to intervene.
“No, I don’t even think about your cooking skills. What is all this? You may be diligent, but don’t overdo it next time.”
Sumin looked at Yeonsu’s cooking area and clicked her tongue in amazement.
If she listened to Yeonsu’s suggestion to sit quietly and wait, she would probably end up starving for dinner tonight.
Wearing an apron, Sumin expertly began preparing dishes.
“Wow, you’re really a master chef.”
“What do you expect from a cooking instructor’s skills?”
The two, who had heavy hearts from talking about the kids, laughed again while preparing dinner.
The delicious aroma filled the house.
“Is Yumi asleep? It’s quiet.”
“She probably couldn’t sleep a wink on the plane, so she must be really tired.”
Sumin sighed and tilted her head.
“Then I should prepare dinner and wake her up.”
“When will Jiho’s dad come?”
“He’ll come on the weekend because of a seminar. We can eat together quietly. It’s good, isn’t it?”
“But will Jiho come right away?”
“He didn’t mention that. He’ll probably come home for dinner.”
They transferred the well-prepared dishes onto plates and moved them one by one to the dining table.
“But, how is Isu’s personality?”
Having grown up in a not-so-harmonious family since childhood, Jiho wondered if her personality might be a bit off.
“Her personality is naturally sensitive and sharp. It doesn’t show on the surface, but if you get to know her, she’s cold and you can’t tell what’s on her mind. As I said earlier, she pretends to be fine but properly stabs people in the back. I wonder if Jiho really knows and meets Isu with that kind of personality.”
Sumin said with a worried expression, shaking her head.
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.
