Even if she was truly in pain and had no choice but to be hospitalized, I sincerely wished she would have consulted me first since she was in my body.
In the end, I wanted her to make excuses to provide the answers I wanted to hear.
Even if I had no intention of understanding whatever she said.
It was a terribly selfish heart.
In Ho felt a sigh rising to the throat.
Belatedly, Su Yeon’s words were vividly recalled.
“I tried, but it didn’t go well. It’s my fault that it came to this, so don’t blame the innocent.”
Su Yeon had definitely said that.
She said she tried, but it didn’t work out.
In Ho tightly closed his eyes in a daze.
Only now did her face and voice seem truly visible and audible.
Su Yeon must have done her best.
Even in the impossible situation where her body changed overnight, to impersonate Seo In Ho.
She must have put all her effort into not creating a situation that could harm Seo In Ho.
Even if it meant enduring and putting up with the gaze of many people in a performance she had never done in her life, Su Yeon would have done her best to accomplish the task.
But I just harshly criticized Su Yeon for being hospitalized without consultation.
“Haa……”
In Ho could not hold back the rising sigh.
Belatedly, the thought that he had been reckless came to him.
Knowing that Myung Woo was waiting for his answer, he could not say a word.
He felt trapped in a flood of complex thoughts.
It was only after a long time that he managed to ask the question he had been too late to ask.
“…Was it very hard?”
“…Yes. I think it’s a bit better now, but it looked really serious on the set earlier. It surprised not only me but also the staff… That’s why we came to the hospital.”
In Ho clenched his teeth and closed his eyes tightly.
After hearing Myung Woo’s words, the guilt increased.
Su Yeon was not there, but he could not lift his head as if she was there.
“I don’t know why you’re so angry, brotherinlaw, but you must have had such circumstances. So please calm down and don’t be too hard on yourself.”
Despite Myung Woo’s continuing words, In Ho kept sighing deeply.
Whether or not that was an answer, Myung Woo left his seat after leaving a courtesy greeting.
He didn’t know how long he had been standing there.
It took In Ho a long time to take a step with a complicated heart.
He wanted to go to the hospital room, but he didn’t.
The last expression he saw on Su Yeon’s face made him hesitate to do so.
Perhaps now my wife, deep in disappointment, would not want to see a single hair of me.
It seemed that it would be a late favor to her to give her time to compose her heart rather than blindly going to apologize according to my character.
So I came home aimlessly, but Su Yeon’s thoughts never left my mind.
In Ho, filled with irritability, ran his fingers through his hair and opened the cap of the bottle of headache medicine in his hand.
As soon as he did, he had to let out a deep sigh again.
“Why this much medicine……”
There seemed to be less than ten pills left in the fairly large pill bottle.
In Ho stared at the pill bottle from afar.
No matter how much he thought about it, he didn’t have many memories of looking for headache medicine.
Then all of this is…
In Ho flopped down on the bed.
Then he stared at the mirror on the dresser across from him.
“How long have you been living with this headache?”
He asked, looking at Su Yeon’s face reflected on the mirror.
Surely, Su Yeon was asked, but there was no sign of her to answer anywhere.
It was frustrating.
And just like that, a long, unbearable night began for In Ho.
((())) ((())) ((()))
He felt heavy.
Even in his sleep, the fatigue was so intense that he couldn’t bear it.
In Ho raised his heavy eyelids with difficulty, unable to get used to the weighty condition.
Just trying to sit up was not easy.
Was it due to the persistent headache till the dawn, or the fact that he couldn’t fall asleep until twilight.
His condition was even worse than yesterday.
Because of that, he had entirely forgotten his expectation that he might feel normal again after a good sleep just before falling asleep.
In Ho checked his mobile phone while pressing his throbbing temples.
The first thing he saw on the screen were four digits pointing to the time that had passed noon.
It was not strange to wake up at this time since he finally fell asleep after 5 in the morning.
However, he wasn’t pleased about oversleeping as he tried to stick to a morning person’s routine except for shooting times.
“What a mess, really.”
In Ho mumbled with a sigh in his voice.
Everything was a mess from one to ten.
That thought seemed to pull his already heavy condition even lower, so he forced himself to get up.
What had happened had already happened.
There was nothing that could change by sighing and holding his head like this.
In Ho repeated that thought many times.
He had to hypnotize himself like that.
If he didn’t, he felt like he would be swallowed by difficult to escape lethargy.
In Ho shook his head and stretched his legs towards the bathroom.
He thought to hurry and wash up and go to the hospital first.
Today, he wanted to convey his apologies to Su Yeon, which he couldn’t do yesterday.
Thinking that, he hurriedly moved, but a loud bell sound grabbed In Ho’s ankle.
Looking at the unfamiliar music, it seemed to be a call on Su Yeon’s phone.
In Ho unplugged the charger that had been connected all night and looked at the screen.
His eyebrows knitted together at once.
“No, why do you call every day like this?”
The name written on the screen was the same as yesterday, “mother”.
The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)
Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.
After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.
Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”
He fell ill.
She came to see him, bringing breakfast.
As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”
She turned around upon hearing the noise.
He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”
“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.
He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”
Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.
After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.
Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.
A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”
What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.
What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.
