“The heirloom wedding dress was torn.”
“Ah, shit……”
At the moment the curse was about to spill from his mouth, Min Woo closed his mouth abruptly. Because he had met Yul Li’s gaze. He couldn’t lose his temper in front of her. Instead, Min Woo harshly slapped away Je Ho’s hand that was wrapped around Yul Li’s waist, as if saying not to touch my woman, with blazing eyes.
“I’ll go change clothes.”
When Min Woo left with his cell phone, Yul Li went into the fitting room wearing Je Ho’s jacket. Perhaps because the space was narrow, the citrus scent flowing from the jacket was stronger than outside. It felt as if she was in Je Ho’s arms.
Am I crazy, what am I imagining right now?
Yul Li laughed as if she was flabbergasted, and quickly took off the torn dress.
((()))((()))((()))
“What is all this about?”
Lady Na, who received a call from Min Woo, hung up and rushed over.
“Nancy Song, how on earth did you manage this?”
With anger to the tips of her hair, Lady Na yelled loudly.
“I’m sorry, ma’am.”
“Do you think saying sorry will make it all right?”
“Really, I am truly sorry, ma’am.”
Even though she had done nothing wrong, Nancy Song bowed repeatedly to Lady Na. The lady, who was raging to calm her anger, now cast a cold glance at Yul Li.
“Yul Li, do you know what kind of dress this is?”
Yul Li kept her mouth shut and bowed her head.
“How little respect must you have for our family to behave this way? This dress, I clearly……”
Then, with a sudden noise, the fitting room door opened. Lady Na, who turned her head towards the noise without thinking, was surprised to see Je Ho coming out in a suit.
“Je Ho, why are you here?”
“It’s been a long time, aunt.”
A faint smile appeared on the lips of Je Ho who was looking at Lady Na.
Lady Na, who had no idea Je Ho was there, glanced at Min Woo as if to ask why he hadn’t told her. But in fact, it was all her fault. Without a chance to hear the full story about the torn dress, she had rushed over right away.
Due to Je Ho’s appearance, Lady Na had no choice but to retract her furious expression. Even if Min Woo pretended not to know, Je Ho wouldn’t play along with the lie.
“When did you come to Korea and only now am I seeing your face?”
“I’m sorry about that, aunt.”
Even though he said so, his expression didn’t look sorry at all. Although Je Ho’s attitude towards his elders was slightly annoying, now wasn’t the time to quibble about it. Lady Na quickly forced a smile towards Yul Li and Min Woo.
“It’s already torn, what can we do? Will you sew it up and wear it? That’s it. You two handle it however you want.”
Having said her piece, Lady Na glanced at Je Ho, turned around, and left the dress room. Min Woo signaled to Yul Li that he would go first and hurriedly followed Lady Na. When the two left, the noisy room became quiet for a moment.
“I’m sorry for the disturbance.”
Even though she hadn’t done anything wrong, Yul Li apologized on behalf of Lady Na to Nancy Song and the staff.
“Oh, not at all.”
Nancy Song dismissed it with a wave of her hand, but still felt uneasy. Who would’ve thought that the person causing a fuss and behaving poorly would be her future motherinlaw! Lady Na might be hypocritical, but she always acted carefully in all matters, aware of the public eye. They say a couple is one body, it seems it’s not only Executive Kwon who has a terrible temper.
Ha, if it’s like this before the wedding, what will it be like afterwards?
Yul Li cast a bitter smile and turned her gaze to the flashy wedding dresses hanging in the closet. The old dress that was causing a headache was gone, and all she had to do now was choose a dress she liked, but just looking at them made her feel drained because of the subdued atmosphere.
“I’ll choose the main dress next time. Let’s call it a day.”
“Okay, take your time.”
Nancy Song nodded as if to say she understood, and then she and the staff pulled away the portable clothes rack with the dresses.
“Darn it……”
Je Ho, who had been silently watching until now, got up from the wall he had been leaning against.
“I haven’t finished fitting yet……”
Only then did Yul Li realize that Je Ho hadn’t been able to fit properly due to the commotion caused by me. Flustered, Yul Li walked to the bell installed on the wall.
“Sorry, I’ll call again.”
“No.”
He gently caught Yul Li’s wrist as she was about to press the bell button. As Yul Li looked at him with a puzzled expression, he lightly shook his head.
“I think I’ll stop for today too. The effect of the medication is wearing off……”
Now that she looked, Je Ho looked paler than before. Did that mean he had been enduring the pain with painkillers all this time?
“Does it hurt a lot?”
“Well, it’s bearable.”
Je Ho unbuttoned his bow tie with his uninjured hand, grinning as if he was alright. Yul Li, unable to stand watching him struggle with one hand, reached out and untied the tie for him.
“Thank you.”
“No, I should be more grateful.”
“What are you talking about?”
Male lead is a Destined Young Husband (Female-dominant)
One-sentence summary: Wife-master, listen to my explanation!
Li Ruantang, a young lady from a prestigious family, stumbled and fell. When she woke up, she saw a noble and beautiful young man sitting by her bedside, wiping away tears.
The young master had slightly reddened eyes, and his every move exuded charm.
The sight made Li Ruantang’s eyes hot and her heart flutter. After all, she had made a bet with the young master Meng from the neighboring family. If she couldn’t marry a husband before the end of the year, she would have to admit defeat and give up the jade she had worked so hard to obtain.
Outside the window, the flowers were in full bloom.
Rather than losing the bet, the jade, and her face, Li Ruantang calculated that it would be better to seek marriage with the young master in front of her, killing three birds with one stone.
…
Meng Jun never thought that an accident during a spring outing would lead to them rolling down a cliff and into a river, yet still survive.
Now they were trapped in an unknown village, and Meng Jun had overheard that the family who had rescued them had their own intentions.
After all, it was Li Ruantang who had lost her mind and sought marriage first. He was only trying to protect himself!
Glancing at Li Ruantang, who was listing her own merits, the young husband’s voice softened, and he blushed as he lied, “W-wife-master, Wife-master, don’t you remember me?”
The young husband’s voice was clear and handsome, coaxing Li Ruantang’s heart to be soft and sweet, and she spared no effort to protect him.
It wasn’t until they returned to the capital that Li Ruantang suddenly remembered.
When they had fallen off the cliff, in order not to implicate Wei Yunruo, whom he secretly admired, the young husband had instead pulled her, who was slightly farther away, down the cliff with him…
Short summary by Yuushi L: Initially, the male lead (ML) liked another girl, while the female lead (FL) liked the ML. Both fell off a cliff. The FL temporarily lost her memory, and the ML, fearing others might take advantage of him, claimed FL was his wife while they were staying in a village. Later, when they returned home, the FL regained her memories and remembered that the ML liked someone else, so she kept her distance from him. However, during their time living together in the countryside, the ML’s view of the FL had completely changed. From this point, his pursuit of the FL begins.
