That Night's Circumstance (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 87
In Ho stepped out of the lounge and hurried into the elevator, gripping his phone tightly in his hand.
He immediately dialed the number from his recent call history.
After just a few rings, the voice of his third eldest brother, Jin Hyuk, came through the phone.
—Yeah, alright.
“Hyung, thanks. I’ve finished everything, so you can resume lounge operations after 30 minutes.”
—What the hell have you been up to lately? Mom’s seemed awfully busy because of you—something about your wife, right? What’s actually going on?
“It’s too complicated to explain right now. Anyway, thanks to you, I handled everything smoothly.”
—You’re not… seeing that woman you met at the lounge today behind your wife’s back, are you?
“Don’t even joke about that. Besides Soo Yeon, what other woman do I have?”
—Good, then. You’ve always been a bit odd since you were little, after all. But let’s not make requests like this again. I agreed today only because you sounded so urgent—but if your wife ever finds out I arranged a meeting spot for you with another woman, no matter the reason, how could I possibly face her?
The voice on the other end of the line, which had started playfully, ended with serious advice.
Every word was spot-on, leaving In Ho unable to retort immediately.
“…Got it. Sorry for suddenly asking something like that. Thanks for listening.”
—You don’t owe me anything. Just treat your wife well. Let’s all have a meal together soon when we get the chance.
“Yeah. I’ll set a date and get back to you. And seriously, thanks for today. Also, I trust you’ll handle things properly—but please make sure your staff keep quiet.”
Male lead fell into her trap — and shattered when she walked away
This is also on my reread list!
This one is a slow burn, but when it burns, it burns hard.
Definitely worth a read, y’all!
The story follows a thousand-year-old seductive spirit who, on a bet, sets out to charm the male lead—a once-promising but unfortunate cultivator.
But just when she succeeds in making him fall for her, she heartlessly leaves, driving him to madness.
Determined to find her at all costs, he captures her, keeping her by his side no matter what, even if she hates him.
I love this kind of trope—I enjoy watching the male lead suffer in agony.
The ending drags a bit with unnecessary filler, but that’s fine.
As long as I enjoy the beginning, I’m good.
