Repeating those words to herself, acting didn’t feel as difficult as before.
At least the character ‘Yoon Ji Hyuk’, as In Ho had described, had many similarities to her.
She understood Ji Hyuk’s lines with the heart of Choi Su Yeon.
And then, it didn’t feel awkward to recite those lines anymore.
The reply from the veteran actor, seasoned with emotions that fit the situation, further fueled her own emotions.
Soo Yeon tried not to drift away from that feeling.
She never anticipated that the outcome of her efforts would be so gratifying.
“I must be causing him a lot of worry…”
Having successfully navigated through the difficult situation, In Ho came to her mind.
Hesitantly, yet determined, Soo Yeon reached for her phone.
As Soo Yeon was about to press the call icon to dial In Ho’s number, Myung Woo’s voice suddenly came through.
“Hyung! Why are you here? I’ve been looking for you for a while!”
Soo Yeon looked up in surprise, seeing Myung Woo standing with a staff member from the props team.
“Is the injured person okay?”
She immediately asked the staff member.
“Wow. Hyung, don’t you see me?”
“Oh, sorry. Was there a hospital nearby? It must have been inconvenient with my sudden request, thank you.”
Soo Yeon patted Myung Woo’s shoulder a couple of times.
Then Myung Woo, who had been pouting, suddenly widened his eyes.
“Ah, Hyung, you’re starting again. Why are you acting like this all of a sudden?”
“What? What do you mean?”
“Why are you suddenly imitating Sister-in-law again?”
“Ha, what?”
Soo Yeon couldn’t help but laugh out loud, unaware that Jun Seo, standing next to her, was nervously looking around.
If it weren’t for the voice that followed, she and Myung Woo would have continued their idle chat.
“Here, this.”
“Ah, did you get treated okay?”
The item Jun Seo handed over was a card in In Ho’s name.
Soo Yeon took the card and asked about the treatment.
“It’s a bruise. The wound is deep, but they said it will heal quickly with ointment and warm compresses.”
Myung Woo answered the question she had directed to Jun Seo.
Soo Yeon noticed Jun Seo nodding, seemingly unaccustomed to such help.
Soo Yeon felt concerned for Jun Seo but forced a smile, pretending not to notice.
“Did you buy the bag?”
“Yes. It was just a basic bag, but finding a similar one was so difficult. I just got back from buying it.”
Again, Myung Woo was the one who answered.
Relieved that the treatment went well and the bag was purchased, Soo Yeon nodded and picked up the script she had been carrying all day.
She wanted to rest in the van before the last shoot started.
As she looked around for the van, Jun Seo’s voice suddenly reached her.
“Um…!”
Soo Yeon looked at him with wide eyes. He seemed awkward and hesitant, as if he had something to say but was struggling to find the words.
Soo Yeon waited patiently.
“Thanks to you, I got through the tough situation and received treatment. Thank you so much.”
Soon, Jun Seo earnestly expressed his gratitude, bowing deeply before quickly running off.
“…….”
Soo Yeon watched Jun Seo’s retreating figure in a daze.
It had been a strange day.
She had stepped up, uncharacteristically, to argue and express anger to help someone.
In the midst of her concern, Soo Yeon had spent her own money on hospital bills and necessary items, and surprisingly, she even received praise for an acting performance she thought she couldn’t pull off.
And now, she was even being thanked.
Suddenly, her heart fluttered pleasantly, a feeling so unfamiliar that it seemed like a dream.
She realized she was wearing a proud smile on her lips.
In Ho, still reeling from shock, stared at Hye Kyung.
The threat of facing a harsh fate if he didn’t keep his mouth shut was unbelievable to his ears.
The situation was absurd, yet Hye Kyung appeared too composed.
Unable to speak, In Ho watched as Hye Kyung seemed to relish his speechlessness.
Until then, In Ho hadn’t realized that all that had happened was just the beginning of the shocks he had to endure.
“I don’t know why Seo Seobang suddenly started treating you well, but wake up, Soo Yeon.”
“…….”
“TK Group has found out that you’re an adoptee. How much longer do you think you can endure?”
“…….”
“You’re not the youngest daughter-in-law of TK Group, but just an orphan abandoned at birth. When you get divorced, the only place you can return to is my arms. So why are you being so arrogant?”
As soon as Hye Kyung finished speaking, her hand shot up in the air.
Unwillingly, In Ho crouched down and covered his head with his arms.
The incident occurred in an instant, without any of his volition.
The heavy blow to the back of his head rendered In Ho immobile.
“That’s right. This is how my daughter should be.”
Hye Kyung’s raised hand touched Soo Yeon’s head, which wasn’t entirely covered.
“Just endure a little longer. Dong Hoon has recently come to Korea. I plan to discuss marriage arrangements with Soo Jin soon, so just hang in there until then.”
“…….”
“The title of daughter-in-law to the TK Group might be a bit wasted, but what can we do? We’re sorry to the in-laws for deceiving them with a daughter-in-law without roots, so we have no choice but to take her back as an apology.”
Hye Kyung’s continuous words were shockingly unbelievable.
Yet, In Ho couldn’t respond or even move.
His body wouldn’t listen to him.
He couldn’t even twitch a finger, and his wildly fluctuating heartbeat made it difficult to breathe.
His emotions and body reacted violently, as if he had always feared such a situation.
His unfocused eyes aimlessly wandered the void.
Soo Yeon. You…
What kind of life have you lived?
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.
