Nayoung thought this could be a dream. She woke up in a daze, and it was strange that Taehyuk was in her room at this hour. Taehyuk reached out, gently stroking her head.
“If you’re sleepy, go back to sleep.”
Nayoung shook her head, denying it.
“Really, …do you love me?”
She didn’t have the courage to say such words. However, when he said he loved her, it felt like she owed him a huge debt.
Taehyuk, chin in hand, tilted his head to the side.
“Why? Does it sound like a lie?”
His posture and his somewhat rough tone made Nayoung squint her eyes.
“Could it be that you’re lying about lying to Professor?”
There was a possibility. After all, Professor Choi Taehyuk wasn’t known for being straightforward.
“Ah! Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth, lies for lies, right?”
As Taehyuk continued to avoid a straightforward answer, Nayoung’s face turned red.
Watching her reaction, Taehyuk stifled his laughter internally.
“Even if it’s a lie, I want to hear it again. Please say it again.”
However, with the unexpected words from her, Taehyuk crumbled in an instant. He collapsed onto the bed, admitting his defeat.
“You won. Now do as you please.”
Nayoung slapped Taehyuk’s shoulder as he collapsed onto her, not in a playful mood. She just wanted to hear the words “I love you” again.

Swish, swish.
Seunghee moved her eyes from side to side while eating breakfast.
Watching Nayoung’s lunchbox being served with side dishes by Doksaa from the morning felt awkward. It felt like eating Hwang Yeo-sa’s lunchbox was not appropriate at all but more like a vulture.
“Hwang Yeo-sa, aren’t you overworking yourself making lunchboxes from early in the morning?”
“I sleep early, so it’s okay. Eat a lot. You’ve lost weight.”
Listening to their conversation, Seunghee felt like a transparent person, as if she was watching a scene where a poisonous snake was putting side dishes on Nayoung’s rice.
“I think I’ve lost my sense of taste. I can’t taste anything.”
Upon Seunghee’s words, Nayoung turned her head, and Professor Choi Taehyuk coolly made a comment.
“Are you daring to complain about side dishes now?”
Seunghee immediately got up from her seat after taking a big bite of rice.
“I’ve finished everything. Please enjoy your meal.”
Watching Seunghee hurry away, Nayoung scolded her.
“Don’t say anything when I’m eating.”
“She needs to experience some hardship.”
How easy life must be for him to be shaken by just one word from Cha Hyun.
He was only twenty-seven, and his mental age was still clearly sixteen.
“I like Seunghee because she’s cheerful.”
“I like you because you’re cool.”
When Professor Choi Taehyuk said that and placed side dishes on her spoon, Nayoung glanced at him.
“Professor, please be kind not only to me but to others as well.”
Taehyuk poured the sujeonggwa, the dessert Hwang Yeosa had prepared, into Nayoung’s cup and spoke with an endlessly affectionate voice.
“I’d willingly become your servant, but if other people crawl up to me, I’ll kill them.”
Whether it was a joke or a sincere statement, Nayoung didn’t say anything more because she felt his intention to treat her well.
“When you met Mr. Jang Suho, were you perhaps very rude to him?”
She could have asked Suho directly, but she felt it wouldn’t be appropriate now, so she intentionally asked Taehyuk.
Taehyuk reflexively frowned at the name.
“Do you think that guy was rude to me?”
Nayoung knew very well that he wouldn’t have thought that. Since that was the answer, Taehyuk turned his head and said bluntly.
“He’s a really annoying guy.”
Everything Suho did was altruistic, making it more irritating.
He didn’t give any opportunity to be caught.
Nayoung cautiously asked Taehyuk, placing her hand on his.
“Still, he’s helping us, can’t you be a bit kinder?”
Nayoung couldn’t remember the last time she had a proper conversation with her father.
But Suho had spent more time with her father over the past few years than with his own family.
So, his help was crucial.
Taehyuk earnestly plotted a conspiracy.
“Do you ever think that Suho might be pretending to help us and might stab us in the back at a crucial moment? I think he could be that kind of person.”
Since Taehyuk seemed to have decided to view Suho in a negative light, Nayoung held Taehyuk’s hand tightly and made a serious request.
“Just grant me one favor.”
Her plea was so sincere that Taehyuk reluctantly agreed.
“Absolutely don’t hit Mr. Jang Suho. Got it?”
Taehyuk pulled his hand away from Nayoung.
“Are you treating me like a gangster?”
“I heard you caused a ruckus in the emergency room, Professor.”
Taehyuk immediately defended himself with folded hands.
“That’s not my fault. They were rude first.”
Nayoung sighed like a beautiful snowflake and drank the sujeonggwa.
Taehyuk felt both diminished and excited in front of her.

Before leaving work, Taehyuk went to find Seungjun.
“We need to deal with Jang Suho.”
As if he were a hitman, Seungjun assured him there was no need to worry.
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…?
