After ending the call with Representative Chae, Je Ho looked at his mobile phone for a moment. He wanted to ask, ‘Is Yul Li okay?’ but he couldn’t. Maybe his question could put her in an awkward position.
That morning, Je Ho breathed a sigh of relief at the sight of Yul Li, who was no different from usual.
“Why.”
Looking at Yul Li leaving the office, Je Ho muttered to himself.
“Were you worried?”
((()))((()))((()))
“What are you talking about? Are you senile?”
“Lower your voice. What if others hear?”
As Min Woo shouted loudly, Vice President Kwon looked awkwardly towards the door. Although the room was soundproof and even if the conversation leaked out, only the secretary would hear, there was no harm in being cautious.
“So what if they hear? I’m sure they’ll react the same as I did.”
Min Woo just heard something unbelievable from Vice President Kwon. President Kwon had entrusted the construction of Min Woo and Yul Li’s newlywed home to Je Ho. The thought of living in a house designed by Je Ho gave him chills. However, Vice President Kwon seemed to think differently.
“It’s strange to have a worldclass architect as a cousin and give the job to someone else. It seems grandfather thought the same.”
“I still don’t like it. I said I don’t like it.”
As Min Woo vehemently objected, Lady Na, who had only been listening, suddenly intervened.
“Stop complaining and listen to your grandfather. When you broke off the match with the Tae Min Group, what did you say? That you’d do anything as long as you could marry Yul Li, right? So why are you going back on your word now?”
“Mom, this is different.”
“What’s so different? Who cares who designs it. Or just break off the wedding.”
Lady Na had not liked this marriage from the beginning. She had rarely seen anything good come from getting involved with politicians. Hand over all the money you have, and the moment the government changes, your company gets kicked to the curb!
Unlike the daughter of the Tae Min Group who always smiled and acted coyly, Yul Li’s indifferent attitude had always been displeasing.
“Representative Chae Hyeong Sik, there’s an election next year. If he doesn’t get elected, you’re grabbing a rotten rope. If you want to succeed smoothly, you should behave well from now on.”
Min Woo, who seemed dissatisfied as he glared at his parents, stormed out of the room.
Min Woo, having left the executive office, headed straight for the planning team to vent his anger. As soon as Min Woo entered the office, all the employees tensed up and stood from their desks.
“You’re all just, lounging around!”
The image of Manager Kwon Min Woo was that of a kind and understanding boss, but in reality, he was a crazy, to put it simply, a nutcase boss. Yelling all day, throwing things, cursing, notorious for his intermittent explosive disorder, he was no less than the infamous Vice President Kwon.
“How on earth do you handle work like this? I told you to take it easy, not to be reckless!”
Min Woo looked around at the employees and shouted, throwing a file of documents.
He had felt like he was flying when he heard he would soon inherit the business, but the situation had completely changed. After reviewing the progress of the Arcadia complex shopping mall project, they would make a final decision.
It was like a bolt from the blue. Vice President Kwon was supposed to become chairman first, and he had been preparing a slush fund for later use.
Bribes during the shopping mall construction, receiving kickbacks, embezzling construction costs, etc. Preparing for the wedding was important, but first, he had to sort out the mess he had made.
Moreover, out of nowhere, my cousin Je Ho appeared. There was no way to know the will of Chairman Kwon, who entrusted the construction of the honeymoon house to Je Ho.
What on earth is happening?
Min Woo frowned and roughly loosened his tie.
((()))((()))((()))
Regardless of it being the first day, Je Ho did not look away from the design drawing until well past the closing time. Although Director Kim advised him to take breaks, he seemed to be the type to finish all the work he had set out to do.
Yul Li also ended up working past closing time. She was cleaning up her place to leave, but then a call came from Min Woo.
[Yul Li, have you heard about the honeymoon house?] He skipped the greetings and went straight to the point.“Yes, I heard about it from my father last night.”
[…… Are you okay with it? Didn’t you object at all?]
Although it was not accurate, Min Woo’s voice seemed to be trembling softly, as if he was trying hard to hold back his anger. Why is he like this? It’s a matter of Chairman Kwon preparing the honeymoon house himself, why would he be angry about that?
“Is there any problem if I’m not okay……. why? Is there any problem?”
[Hu woo.]
Instead of answering Yul Li’s question, Min Woo let out a long sigh.
“What’s wrong?”
[No, it doesn’t matter who built the house…… that’s right, it won’t matter to you. Nevermind. Let’s talk about it later.]
Yul Li did not understand Min Woo’s last words.
Does it not matter who built the house?
The story she heard from Chae Eui Won was that Chairman Kwon would prepare the honeymoon house himself. Was there something else? She shook her head and got up from her place, then her gaze met with Je Ho’s.
Ah, this is why sitting next to him is uncomfortable.
“Why haven’t you left work yet?”
“I was about to now.”
Yul Li smiled forcibly and put her bag on her shoulder. Je Ho, who was now also leaving work, turned off his computer and got up from his seat.
“Let’s talk about important matters while having dinner.”
What important matters? Is he talking to someone else? Yul Li quickly looked around. But there was no one nearby. There was no doubt that she was the person Je Ho was talking to.
“Important matters? What do you mean?”
“I think you heard it from Chae Eui Wonnim yesterday…….”
As Yul Li stared with a completely clueless expression, Je Ho laughed shortly.
“Didn’t Chae Eui Wonnim tell you that I will design the honeymoon house?”
“Huh?”
Who’s going to design what?
Yul Li froze on the spot for a moment. After a while, her mind started to turn again.
Ah, so that’s why Min Woo…
Then Yul Li was able to understand the reaction Min Woo showed during the call. She couldn’t know why Chae Eui Won had left out the part about Je Ho planning to design the honeymoon house. But it seemed that what Chairman Kwon had said was correct.
Chairman Kwon must have thought that it was the best choice to entrust Je Ho with the construction of the honeymoon house.
It sounds fantastic just by hearing it! A worldrenowned architect is designing the honeymoon house, who could possibly refuse?
Of course, she wanted to refuse if she could. She was already having doubts about the political marriage itself because of someone, but to start married life in a house designed by Je Ho…….
“You might be very busy, so there’s no need to take out time for us.”
Yul Li smiled forcibly and circumspectly refused. But of course, she didn’t expect him to accept it easily.
“It’s true that I’m very busy.”
As expected, the refusal came back around.
“Because Chairman Kwon asked me to do it specially.”
As Je Ho’s eyes looking at her curved like a bow, Yul Li felt a sudden pain in her chest and hastily drew her breath.
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.
