The Bad Husband (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 86
“Ahh… Mom. You said you’d get me out. Why is it taking so long? Why?!”
During the visit, Ji Hoon, with a haggard face, finally burst into tears. Seeing this, Ji Eun felt her world collapse—the tears of her precious, innocent child seemed like bloodstains to her eyes.
“Outside, Mom and Dad are doing everything we can. Don’t worry, my son. You’ll be out soon, so just hang in there a little longer, okay?”
“I really can’t stand even one more day in here! Did you go see Tae Eun? Did you meet Seo Woo Jin? Huh? Did you?!”
“Yes, of course I did. And they said they’ll get you out soon. But the procedures aren’t simple, you know—the law is damn complicated and difficult.”
In the end, Ji Eun had no choice but to lie. She sensed that if she didn’t, Ji Hoon would eventually break down completely.
She had to buy time—any way she could—until they somehow got Ji Hoon out. Ji Hoon had to endure this period without revealing anything, no matter what. To make that happen, she decided she had to offer him hope—even if it was false—for now.
“Really? Did they honestly say that? They’ll get me out? Forgive me?”
“Of course! She’s still your younger sister, after all—it’s only natural. All that civil lawsuit nonsense was just to scare you. Now they’ve calmed down rationally. Tae Eun came by the day before yesterday and explained everything. She said you’ll be released soon.”
“Ha… That’s such a relief.”
“So just keep your mouth shut and hang in there like you have been, okay?”
“Got it. I’ll try to endure a bit longer, then.”
Ji Eun’s hands, resting on her knees, trembled violently as she watched Ji Hoon flash a weak smile with his gaunt face. She hadn’t just turned her back on Tae Eun days earlier—she had severed all ties completely.
After that, Min Kyung Hoon collapsed in illness. While his son’s blood slowly dried up in that cold detention cell, his own daughter couldn’t even recognize her father—and he agonized, wondering what he had done to deserve this. He had screamed, he had wept, but nothing helped. Even now, Min Kyung Hoon lay bedridden, having entirely lost his appetite.
No one offered them any support. Those who used to call constantly when Tae Eun married into the Jangwon family had since cut off all contact—and even when Ji Eun tried calling for help, no one answered.
Male lead first thought she played hard to get, only to realize she
really disliked him
Short intro:
What she can’t stand the most is the streets full of effeminate men, especially that so-called top beauty whom she avoids at all costs.
Shen Yaoxing looks at Jiang Mingyue, who keeps approaching her with coy shyness.
Shen Yaoxing: Bro, don’t be like this, I’m really about to throw up!
She fears nothing in heaven or earth, except for him getting close to her.

At first he thought she was just using the trick of feigning indifference to attract his attention. Later, he learned that she truly despised him.
This dealt a heavy blow to Jiang Mingyue, and he vowed to make her, like everyone else, fall at his feet in worship!
