“I won’t have blind dates or meetings again in my life!”
“How are you going to meet someone then?”
To Eun-su’s question, Saetbyeol smiled slyly.
“We saw each other first…”
“Right. I will only meet someone introduced by someone I know.”
Watching Saetbyeol’s sparkling eyes, Eun-su tilted her head in confusion.
It seemed similar to blind dates and meetings, wasn’t it?
However, Saetbyeol’s resolution did not last long. She might bring up a blind date story guaranteed by someone she knew a few weeks later. So, Eun-su felt itchy to say something but held back.
However…
“A matchmaker, a blind date, and a meeting are all the same thing, aren’t they?”
Hyukjoo said with a face showing he didn’t understand.
A moment of silence fell on the dining table.
It wasn’t that everyone kept quiet because they didn’t know. They just pretended not to know, being an extension of hearing Saetbyeol’s complaints about the awkward incident.
But, Hyukjoo had touched it without realizing it.
Not only that.
“Drawing such conclusions based on just a few cases is a hasty generalization error…!”
Eun-su desperately covered Hyukjoo’s mouth with her hand.
Mrs. Sangjoo suddenly moved busily around the kitchen, touching various things. Then, as if she thought there was a need to freshen up the atmosphere, she suddenly turned her head.
“Saetbyeol, do you want to stay overnight?”
“Tonight?”
“I’m bored sleeping alone. Are you embarrassed to go home?”
“You can go to a sauna.”
“Why bother? Besides, if you sleep with me, I’ll introduce you to a really good guy.”
“If he’s really good…”
As Saetbyeol hesitated, Sangjoo urgently added.
“He’s perfect in everything—looks, height, abilities, personality, not missing a single thing.”
“A guy who doesn’t lack in looks, height, abilities, and personality? Are you talking about a unicorn? Where in the world is such a man?”
Saetbyeol said, shaking her head in disbelief. Eun-su somehow felt like she knew who Sangjoo was talking about.
“I know him too. Let’s meet him.”
“Really?”
“Yes.”
“Since Mrs. Geumhwa and Eun-su both say that, I trust them, but…”
Saetbyeol pressed her lips, raising her index finger. Just a few minutes ago, she had declared that she wouldn’t go on any more blind dates, yet she changed her mind so quickly.
“Fine. I’ll meet him! But, I want to meet him after I move.”
Thinking it was too fast to reverse what she had just said, Hyukjoo stared at Saetbyeol with an awkward expression. Eun-su worried that he might say something different from what he said earlier and hurriedly dragged him to the room.
Hyukjoo finished showering and came out.
Buttoning his pajamas, he furrowed his brow and asked.
“Who on earth is the person Mrs. Yeosa mentioned?”
“What person?”
“The one who is perfect in everything—looks, height, abilities, personality, not missing a single thing.”
Ah, along with that sound, Eun-su, who had been leaning against the headboard of the bed, lifted her head.
“I really have no idea who it is.”
“None at all.”
With a face that showed he had no idea, Hyukjoo walked closer to the bed. Eun-su handed him the newspaper she had been looking at. Hyukjoo glanced at the front page and grinned.
The newspaper Eun-su was holding was a newsletter published by the hospital.
“Take a look at this.”
“Why?”
Asking the question, Hyukjoo flipped through the newspaper. It didn’t take long.
His eyes narrowed in an instant as he saw the man smiling at the camera in a white gown.
Leaning back on the bed, Eun-su raised her head.
“Is that man Hwang Inwoo?”
“Yeah.”
“Looks, height, abilities, personality, not missing a single thing, huh?”
Hyukjoo admitted it smoothly.
Though he had been somewhat cautious about Eun-su, thinking she might have different feelings, objectively, Hwang Inwoo was indeed a good guy.
To the extent that he’d want to introduce him to his little sister if he had one.
“I heard that Mrs. Sangjoo ran into him by chance when she went to the hospital today.”
“Oh, really?”
“Yeah, so she asked about him, got his number, and said she’d come to the hospital from tomorrow. She even bragged to me.”
“You’re a huge fan.”
Hyukjoo, sitting next to Eun-su, pounded his chest. Eun-su, upon seeing him, widened her eyes. Hyukjoo’s lips, always straight and firm, seemed to protrude forward for some reason.
Could it be jealousy?
Hyukjoo was gazing somewhere directly ahead. Eun-su leaned forward and pressed her face against his.
“Why are you so angry?”
“Angry? Why would I be angry about anything?”
Upon Hyukjoo’s words, Eun-su suppressed the laughter that seemed about to burst out.
His outright denial, despite the anger clearly written on his face, made his appearance surprisingly cute.
Eventually, Hyukjoo nodded and opened his mouth.
“I am angry, but should I call it anger towards myself?”
Looking at him admitting to being angry at himself, Eun-su blinked her eyes.
He laughed softly, lifting his lips slightly, then continued.
“Saetbyeol said that earlier. I should treat myself well while I’m here.”
“Oh, that saying…”
“I got angry trying to turn back the past when I treated you badly and also got jealous when the name Hwang Inwoo came up. They were close when they were young, so I envy the memories they have.”
Closing the distance with Eun-su, Hyukjoo covered her cheek with his hand.
Stroking Eun-su’s lips, adorned with a delicate smile, with his fingertip, he smiled.
“But now, I’m not going to think like that anymore.”
“Then…”
“Because this moment we’re sharing now will become a happy memory later. So, I’ll be faithful to the present.”
Moving the hand that was touching Eun-su’s cheek, Hyukjoo kissed her lips.
The warm breath pushing in gently penetrated Eun-su’s lips.
Juhwan checked the room number and bought a fruit basket in his hands. It was the most expensive one he could find at the department store.
“Should’ve bought something like red ginseng.”
He pushed up his fallen glasses with his index finger.
The moment he thought Hyukjoo, whom he considered the last lifeline, had completely drawn the line, he thought of Yeongran.
If it were Yeongran, she might not have known she was saving him.
Juhwan swallowed a deep breath and exhaled. He raised the hand with a clenched fist and slowly knocked on the door of the hospital room.
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.
