However, the one who responded to that criticism was not Taeun but Woojin.
How did everyone in this house corner him without understanding the meaning of reflection? After that day, the anger that had barely subsided surged back up.
“I guess my words were difficult to understand. Or maybe my eloquence is so poor that I can’t properly convey my intentions.”
“What…”
“That was blatant sexual harassment. It should not be done, even within a family.”
“Oh, this is absurd. Our Jihoon is definitely not that kind of person…”
While Min Kyunghoon spoke, embarrassed, he didn’t forget to defend his son. At this point, it became curious. Granted, Jihoon was her own son, so she might have such a stance. Still, why did Min Kyunghoon treat Taeun with such disdain?
I anticipated it, but her hell, faced directly, dug deep into Woojin’s heart. In reality, the anger toward Min Kyunghoon was even greater than the anger toward Jieun. Despite Jieun’s meddling to create discord between the couple, the incompetence that prevented her from seeing the truth within the skirt width was the real crime in his eyes.
“Anyway, since our Jihoon seems to have made a mistake on the first meeting, let’s consider this an apology. Jihoon, apologize quickly.”
“Sorry, I didn’t mean to. I’ll be more careful from now on.”
Jihoon apologized with a slightly trembling voice, unexpected by Woojin. However, Woojin’s expression, even after accepting the apology, was still not pleasant.

“Wrong. The apology should come from me.”
“…….”
“To my sister.”
In an icy tone that seemed to cut off their breath, Jihoon, swallowing dry saliva, was prompted by Jieun by his side.
“Right. Apologize to your sister.”
“Sorry. I made a mistake. I won’t do it again.”
Although he apologized, Jihoon’s face, turned pale, didn’t easily regain its color. It seemed like if he received a bit more of Woojin’s energy, he might suffer a cardiac arrest.
“Okay. Now that he apologized, Jihoon, you can leave now.”
Min Kyunghoon swiftly spoke up to get Jihoon out of Woojin’s sight. Jihoon, trying to rise and leave, found that even that wasn’t easily allowed by Woojin.
“Brother-in-law.”

As he turned around, that spine-chilling voice pierced through Jihoon’s back. Jihoon slowly turned to face Woojin.
“I’m going to marry your sister soon, so is it okay if I call you brother-in-law?”
“…Sure.”
Once Jihoon answered, Woojin looked down, fiercely spearing a piece of apple on the fruit plate in front of him. Then, lowering his gaze, he stared at the apple as if it were a piece of apple in his own grip, making it hard to breathe.
In that way, Woojin, without looking at Jihoon, slowly spoke.
“I have one request.”
“Yes.”
“Please refrain from such jokes with my sister, even when no one else is around. Don’t be shy about calling her ‘sister’ as usual.”
“……”
“Of course, there might be others watching, but most importantly, if anyone else treats my woman carelessly, it feels like I might lose my temper.”

“I u-understand.”
As Jihoon bowed deeply and left.
And for a while, a stormy silence blanketed the living room. The smile that Jieun had been forcing suddenly disappeared.
Each word uttered by Woojin, meticulously and evenly, was also a warning to Min Kyunghoon and Jieun rather than Jihoon. Min Taeun, it’s mine now, so don’t interfere.
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.
