As she opened the door and entered the house, Eun Soo sensed a subtle change in the air.
The sight of the employees was nowhere to be found, as if they had all left for a group vacation.
With each step, the noise from the friction between her slippers and the living room floor was loud. The sound seemed louder than usual due to the quietness of the house.
At the same time, the sound of a door opening rang out.
“Is that you, Eun Soo?”
“Yes, Aunt.”
Young Ran, who came out of the study, took a quick glance at Eun Soo standing in the living room and went up the secondfloor staircase.
“Follow me.”
“Yes.”
Silently, Eun Soo followed Young Ran upstairs. It was rare for Young Ran to go up to the second floor.
She had considered the second floor as the space for her niece and her husband, and she had not used it unless there was something special.
Seeing Young Ran boldly going up to the second floor, Eun Soo’s face hardened with tension.
“……”
Eun Soo, who was blankly watching Young Ran enter the bedroom, looked surprised.
“What are you doing, not coming in?”
At the chilly urging voice, Eun Soo entered the bedroom.
Young Ran was sitting on a chair right in front of the bedroom window. As Eun Soo walked towards her, she bit her lip at the sight of the suitcase placed in front of the dressing room.
The suitcase was wide open with the zipper undone, as if it was waiting to be filled with something.
Eun Soo couldn’t take another step and just stared at her own feet.
“Eun Soo.”
At Young Ran’s call, she tried to respond, but her lips moved with no sound. Her body involuntarily tensed up.
It was due to the ominous foreboding that something bad was about to happen.
“I thought you were a very good girl.”
“……”
“You wouldn’t have tried to deceive me first. I know very well that your father must have told you to.”
Eun Soo shuddered.
From the words, ‘father’ and ‘deceived,’ she seemed to understand why Young Ran was angry now.
Finally, she was caught.
Tears quickly welled up in Eun Soo’s eyes.
She bit her lip harder than ever, trying not to cry.
“Your father must have asked for it, invoking the late motherinlaw. That man should have been a bit more greedy. Right?”
“……I’m sorry.”
Eun Soo bowed her head.
“But still.”
Young Ran let out a deep sigh and continued.
“What if you had confessed everything to me honestly?”
“……”
“Then we wouldn’t have needed to come this far.”
“……I did wrong.”
“What did you do wrong?”
At Young Ran’s cold rebuttal, Eun Soo slowly raised her head.
“Let’s hear what you did wrong.”
It was an arrogant tone.
Like a prosecutor urging a confession, knowing everything, Young Ran laughed leisurely.
She didn’t want this kind of ending.
Eun Soo lamented quietly to herself.
She had intended to break up with Hyuk Joo when he returned from his business trip. He would not easily accept it, but it wasn’t sincere.
If she kept saying they should break up, Hyuk Joo would also pretend to give in.
She thought they could have a rather good parting, wishing each other happiness.
Their marriage had been unhappy from the start. Therefore, wishing for a happy ending might have been nonsense.
Since it began crumpled, it was natural that it ended in a mess.
“……I lied.”
“Yes, I never thought for a moment that you would deceive us.”
Anger seeped into her low voice.
“Do you know what happens when there is a sick person in the house?”
“……”
“You’ve been sick before, so you would know. A shadow forms instantly in a house where a family member is ill. You can’t even laugh when good things happen.”
Moon Young Ran sighed, propping her forehead with her hand.
She quietly watched Eun Soo standing pale, devoid of vitality.
The girl must not have intended to deceive them.
She must have come this far due to the coercion, not coercion, of her greedy father.
For some reason, she seemed to always treat Hyuk Joo sincerely, even knowing he had another woman in his heart.
It was to alleviate her guilt.
While angry at the fact that Eun Soo had deceived her, Young Ran thought that the girl must not have been at ease either.
“Being sick is not a mistake.”
Young Ran slightly closed her eyes and then opened them.
“My deceased Olke said so. He was a person with poor health from the start.”
It was a story Eun Soo had heard several times.
Hyuk Joo’s mother had been physically weak from birth. After a single childbirth, her health became extremely weaker, and she spent more than half the year in the hospital.
“Your fatherinlaw and Hyuk Joo never had peace of mind. Olke also suffered, knowing it was because of him.”
“……”
“You might be wondering why I’m bringing up old stories.”
“No, I understand why you’re saying this.”
Eun Soo slowly nodded her head.
She knew better than anyone else that when one family member is sick, a shadow falls over the house.
My mother, who always had a sheen of tears in her eyes, pretended to be okay, pretending to look at me just fine. And my father, who lived inebriated with alcohol.
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.]
