She must have been the one the man was talking to, but she couldn’t understand the point of the sentence, as if she had heard a language she didn’t know.
Confused, she showed her tonguetied gesture and quickly lowered her gaze to the plate.
He seemed too perfect. It looked like there might be something wrong with his personality.
While thinking, the man’s voice was heard again.
“I thought you wanted to eat it again.”
“……Yes?”
“No, because you keep licking it with your eyes.”
“Lick, what……?”
When she stared blankly at the incomprehensible words, the man’s gaze, which had been stuck to his cell phone, came up again. Discomfort was present in his slightly frowning eyes.
“Stop licking it. It’s going to make me feel bad.”
Back in her room, Dajung fanned her heated face repeatedly with her hand.
Judging from what the landlady called the ‘bachelor of room 206’, he seemed to be a new guest in room 206.
She could feel uncomfortable if she kept glancing at him. It’s true that she kept looking at him because he was so handsome.
But still.

“Who did the licking……”
She grumbled discontentedly and pinched the thick part of her eyes instead of her guilty eyeballs.
Although she was wondering how she could lick with her eyes, she was resentful that her innocent and pure eyes were treated like a coarse tongue.
In the end, she said ‘I’m sorry……’ and tailed off, but she didn’t understand why she felt bad even though she knew it was her fault.
Thanks to that, she couldn’t even eat properly, and she felt unjustly rushed.
In an attempt to soothe her upset feelings, she held her mobile phone amidst a flurry of thoughts.
The ringtone continued for a rather long time.
“…Does the girl want to show off that she’s abroad? Early morning calls.” The grumbling voice was a welcome sound.
“It’s time for you to wake up. Morning call.”
“Seriously, no consideration at all. Are you having fun on your pilgrimage?”
At Soli’s sarcastic comment, Da Jung couldn’t help but chuckle. The ‘pilgrimage’ was a teasing term for the Antoni Gaudí tour.
“Yeah, I’m having fun. Jealous?”
“Jealous, my ass. If you’ve gone as far as Spain, you should be meeting men. Obviously, you’re just wandering around taking pictures of buildings in the hot sun, why would I be jealous?”
Bae Soli. She and Da Jung have been inseparable best friends since the first year of middle school.
“I asked you to come with me.”
“Shut down my café for a month for your pleasure? Where should I go?”
“I see.”
Unlike Da Jung, who studied architecture in college, Soli bravely gave up on going to college.

Soli, the youngest daughter among two boys and two girls, had parents who didn’t care much about her going to college because they were busy looking after their older children.
Having started working at a young age, Soli, with her savings and a loan, opened a small café on the outskirts of Seoul a few months ago.
“By the way, when’s your first day at Daehyun Construction? You have time to travel?”
“Daehyun Construction? I turned them down. I’ve already signed a contract with senior Do Jun. I’ll be getting my salary from him, and I’ll take it slow and steady.”
The surprised gasp was unexpected.
“You’re crazy, girl! You turned down a big company? Who do you think you are?”
At the scolding words, Da Jung just grimaced and laughed.
“Let me have some fun too. I’ve been living without catching my breath for a long time.”
Indeed. She’d lived day by day as if being chased.
Due to difficult circumstances, Da Jung barely managed to graduate from university this year. She was a late graduate at the age of twentyseven.
During her leave of absence from school, she was too busy working onsite to gain practical experience and earn tuition fees. As a result, she hadn’t been able to go on the backpacking trip that everyone else goes on during their university days.
But as they say, there’s a silver lining after hardship. Just before graduation, Da Jung managed to win the grand prize in a competition she’d entered for experience.
It was an event organized by Daehyun Construction, and the cash prize was generous because the organizer was a large corporation.
Though she was offered a job at Daehyun Construction as a bonus, she turned it down immediately. The first thing she did with her prize money was fly to Spain, the country of her dreams.

Soli sighed as if it was all in vain.
“Anyway. Aren’t there any suave and handsome men in Spain?”
“Handsome men?”
The man who had disturbed Da Jung’s peace of mind at the dinner table came to mind again.
Although she was somewhat reluctant, she decided to acknowledge what she had to acknowledge.
“I don’t know about being suave…… but I did see an extremely handsome man.”
“Oh, is he alone? A Spanish man?”
“No, a Korean. But he’s a bit strange.”
“Great
“It’s strange. He seems to have a personality disorder.”
『He’s handsome, what does it matter? Charm him, charm him!』
The logic she was pushing forward was very much like Soli.
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.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
