Here is the translation of the given passage:
Yeong-seon hastily sent Director Kim away due to Su-yeon’s unexpected visit.
Her heart pounded wildly every time she met Su-yeon’s gaze, still reeling from the shock of the stories she had just heard.
She wished she could postpone this meeting, but she couldn’t.
Su-yeon had just entered through the main door, hands full of groceries she had bought for Yeong-seon.
This only complicated Yeong-seon’s feelings further, as Su-yeon, instead of greeting her warmly, simply smiled faintly at her own lack of cordial words.
“Mother, I’m sorry for coming unannounced. I kept worrying because I heard you weren’t feeling well. I came by to make you some abalone porridge, which I know you like. I’ll just quickly prepare this and leave.”
“…….”
“If my being in the kitchen only makes you more uneasy, I’ll just leave these here and go. I’ll visit again when you’re feeling better.”
She hesitantly expressed her concern and offer to cook.
Yeong-seon heard her words but couldn’t just let Su-yeon leave.
Eventually, she had Su-yeon sit down at the tea table in her room.
That was ten minutes ago, and even now, Yeong-seon couldn’t find the right words to say.
The situation was equally awkward for Su-yeon.
She really intended to just make the porridge and leave.
She was even prepared to postpone her visit if Yeong-seon didn’t allow it.
She braced herself for any potentially hurtful situations, but Yeong-seon’s unexpected offer caught her off guard.
“I’m not up for a meal, but…….”
“…….”
“Have some tea before you go.”
It was unbelievable, almost inconceivable.
After the last meal with Hye-kyung and her daughter, even the words of gratitude seemed like a dream, and now, sitting face-to-face with Yeong-seon for tea was beyond her expectations.
She couldn’t remember the last time she was with Yeong-seon like this.
That’s why Su-yeon thought this way.
It seemed like a precious and rare opportunity had come to her.
She didn’t want to miss it.
If this was an opportunity Yeong-seon was giving her, she wanted to seize it by all means.
“Is your headache better, Mother?”
Su-yeon made an effort to speak congenially to Yeong-seon.
A forced smile was on her face.
It was her first time attempting this, and despite her efforts, the awkwardness didn’t diminish.
But she wanted to try.
If there was any chance to win back Yeong-seon’s heart, Su-yeon was willing to do anything.
“The abalones looked really fresh. The porridge should be delicious. Even if you don’t feel like eating, please make sure to have dinner. And…….”
Su-yeon trailed off, her face full of concern.
She hesitated for a long time, unsure of what to say, but then looked at Yeong-seon with a face full of certainty.
“Thank you for offering the tea…….”
“…….”
“Really, thank you, Mother.”
She debated several times whether saying this would make the already awkward atmosphere even more so, but in the end, she couldn’t hold back her feelings.
She was too grateful.
Whatever the reason for Yeong-seon’s sudden change of heart, Su-yeon was deeply thankful.
Here is the translation of the given passage:
Su-yeon wanted to convey her feelings earnestly.
But just as she finished expressing her gratitude, something unbelievable happened.
Yeong-seon’s eyes reddened fiercely.
And that was not all.
Her eyes, now much more tender than before, brimmed with tears.
Su-yeon, not knowing what to do, looked around frantically.
She instinctively searched for tissues, but couldn’t find any.
“Mother, what’s wrong?”
Her voice, filled with alarm and concern, worried for Yeong-seon.
Yet, Yeong-seon couldn’t easily respond.
It was impossible.
What had she done to deserve this?
She couldn’t bear to show tears in front of Su-yeon.
Even so, she had to muster all her strength to hold them back.
But contrary to her will, her tear ducts seemed to be broken, continuously letting tears flow.
Eventually, Yeong-seon hurriedly wiped away the tears that fell beneath her eyes.
“Mother, just a moment. I’ll get you some tissues.”
Su-yeon quickly rose from her seat, her face looking as if she would start crying any moment.
Yeong-seon stared blankly at the empty spot where Su-yeon had been.
The more she did, the more her heart ached.
The unbelievable stories she had heard from Director Kim kept echoing in her ears.
Just hearing those alone was enough to overwhelm her emotions, but seeing Su-yeon worrying about her made it impossible to contain her surging feelings.
In Su-yeon’s expression of gratitude for just a cup of tea, there was no hint of resentment towards her.
How could that be?
After how harshly she had treated her.
How terribly she had behaved.
She was nothing but a bad person who had added another scar to her already troubled heart.
But how could she treat her with such a pure and kind face?
Yeong-seon couldn’t fathom the depth of Su-yeon’s kind heart.
“Mother, I don’t know what’s troubling you, but please calm down first.”

The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
