“I said there’s no need for you to come today. And for the foreseeable future…….”

Young Sun trailed off, her face a mix of complexities.

-Uh, mother, are you upset because I was late today? Then I’ll come right now. Do you want anything to eat? I’ll pick it up on the way, just tell me.

The immediate response sounded desperately urgent.

Though there was a strange dissonance in Soo Yeon’s tone, what mattered at the moment wasn’t that.

“I’m quite tired today. Need to rest. So, no need for you to come.”

-Are you very unwell? What’s wrong exactly?

Expecting relief at her refusal, Young Sun was instead met with unexpected worry.

She stared blankly into space, her eyes quivering slightly.

Her head was already aching with complexity, and now, it felt increasingly tangled.

After a brief pause, Young Sun hurriedly moved her lips.

“I’ll take care of myself. Don’t worry. I’ll contact you when I feel better.”

With that, she abruptly ended the call.

She thought she heard a response, but lacked the courage to listen.

Young Sun relaxed her rigid posture and lay down on the bed.

Perhaps due to a sleepless night, a headache had been lingering faintly for the past hour.

“Sigh…….”

She closed her eyes tightly, exhaling a heavy sigh.

A brief rest seemed beneficial, but the plethora of thoughts in her head made sleep elusive.

“Yes. Thanks to mother treating me like her own daughter, I’m doing really well.”

Soo Yeon’s voice from yesterday suddenly echoed in her ears.

It was the cause of Young Sun’s agonizingly long night.

Young Sun couldn’t easily forget Soo Yeon’s expression when she said those words.

Soo Yeon was smiling brightly.

As if trying to prove a falsehood as truth, her expression was excessively happy.

To an outsider, it would have seemed like she was genuinely happy about being treated as a daughter.

But then, the daughter-in-law, who was smiling so brightly, grabbed her arm desperately.

She couldn’t shake her off.

If Young Sun too coldly rejected Soo Yeon, she seemed like she would crumble entirely.

“Mother, sorry, but may I go to the bathroom for a moment?”

“……Yes. Go ahead.”

Not stopping Soo Yeon, who said she was going to the bathroom, was for the same reason.

Unable to express her feelings in words, Young Sun was engulfed in indescribable emotions as her daughter-in-law Su Jin and her in-law Hye Kyung, who was always smiling pleasantly, followed Soo Yeon out.

Unconcerned about her inner turmoil.

“Did you enjoy shopping, madam?”

Enjoy shopping?

When she first heard that from Hye Kyung, she was so dumbfounded she couldn’t speak.

It had been 3 years since Soo Yeon became her daughter-in-law, and it had been a year since the relationship soured upon learning Soo Yeon was adopted.
This meant that it had been three years since she was deceived by Taeshin Group, and a year had passed since she learned the truth, yet hadn’t heard an apology or even an explanation from the involved party.

Young Sun felt a surge of anger within her.

She wanted to vent all the accumulated resentment, but given the circumstance, it wasn’t easy for her to let go of her dignity as the hostess of TK Group.

Moreover, with the other party persistently feigning ignorance, expressing her anger might only make her look foolish.

“We just arrived. It seems madam has also just arrived. It looks like you haven’t chosen a gift for your daughter-in-law yet, perhaps you should look around more.”

Young Sun forced a smile and indirectly suggested parting ways once the children arrived.

But Hye Kyung, oblivious or pretending to be, shook her head.

“Oh, no. We finished shopping a while ago. We’ve already put the things in the car through the chauffeur. We were discussing where to go for dinner, thinking it would be nice to have a meal before going home.”

“Ah, I see.”

“Would you like to join us for dinner, if that’s alright with you?”

Young Sun felt her teeth grinding.

‘Dinner together? How can she have the audacity to invite me to dinner?’

Although it was infuriating to think about, Young Sun reluctantly agreed.

She wanted to see how long this shamelessness could last without a change in facial expression.

She also harbored a faint hope that the person might at least offer an apologetic word in passing.

However, such hopes were overly optimistic and merely wishful thinking on Young Sun’s part.

Throughout the dinner at the restaurant and until they parted ways, Hye Kyung did not once mention an apology or even reference the incident.

And that wasn’t all.

There was no sign of concern for Soo Yeon.

Hye Kyung’s attention was solely on her own biological daughter, treating Soo Yeon coldly, despite having raised her together.

It wouldn’t have been so uncomfortable if it had just been that.

But the looks Hye Kyung and Su Jin gave Soo Yeon at the same table were venomously hostile.

It was hard to believe that these people had lived as a family for a long time, as they seemed to be waiting for any opportunity to attack Soo Yeon.

After Being Cheated On, She Picked Up a Treasure (Female-dominant)

One-line summary: The husband I married on a whim had been secretly in love with me for a long time.

On the day when Jun Shao finally obtained the imperial decree for her marriage, Lan Qu, the person she had admired for six years, defied the decree and ran away.

Her gentleness and devotion, her promise of a lifetime together, were all disregarded by him. Instead, he dreamed of entering the palace to serve the Emperor’s sister as a sixth-rank attendant.

News of this incident spread throughout the capital, and the alleys in front of and behind the Lan mansion were crowded with people who came to watch the commotion.

Jun Shao should have been embarrassed and angry.

But someone stepped in to protect her dignity.

The figure was in a miserable state, yet still possessed an undeniable elegance and handsomeness.

The young lord struggled to climb the wall of the Lan mansion and shouted to her, “If he won’t marry you, I will!”

So, Jun Shao took advantage of the situation and married the person.

She thought the young lord did it to save the Lan family from the crime of defying the imperial decree, but never imagined that from beginning to end, what he coveted was her.

*

After the wedding, Jun Shao felt like she was living in a dream.

Her Wife-master was as beautiful as a fairy in a painting, skilled in the six arts, well-versed in poetry and literature, capable of being gentle and attentive, and also grand and dignified. Most importantly, she was the only one in his heart and eyes.

Jun Shao didn’t know how Lan Shiwu, as a illegitimate son without a father and blessed with beauty, had managed to preserve his purity, recklessly escape, and use his last ounce of strength to ruin his own reputation, all because of his love for her, just to stand before her.

She could only see him gazing at her with eyes full of love, and when she bestowed a name upon him, his eyes shone like stars.

“You have come to me like a weary bird perching on a branch. I shall call you A Qi.”
