The Grand Temptation (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 41
A warning light flashed in Yuli’s mind at the phrase “serious apology.”
“No, it’s fine. Really, I’m okay.”
She tried to pull away quickly, but it was already too late. Jae Ho wrapped his arm firmly around her waist and pulled her toward the bedroom. The moment they entered, he headed straight for the bed and even started undressing her—his actions completely contradicting his words.
Yet instead of resisting, she flushed and waited with a racing heart for what he’d do next. In truth, she was just as inconsistent as he was—her words and actions didn’t match either.
After seating Yuli on the bed, Jae Ho swiftly disappeared into the bathroom. He returned shortly after, holding a first-aid kit in his hand.
…Huh?
Was this what he meant by a “serious apology”?
Just as disappointment began to surface on her face, Yuli quickly lowered her head. Jae Ho set the first-aid kit on the table, then climbed onto the bed and naturally lifted her into his arms.
Again, Yuli’s heart fluttered. So it wasn’t about giving her medical treatment after all.
Or… maybe he’d kept it in the first-aid kit because it counted as medical equipment? But then, why had he brought it if he wasn’t planning to go all the way?
What should she do? Push him away or accept him? Her mind tangled in confusion, unable to reach a decision.
“Just lean back and relax.”
Expecting him to lay her down and kiss her passionately, Yuli was surprised when Jae Ho gently set her deeper onto the bed and helped her lean against the headboard.
Leaving her bewildered, he opened the first-aid kit, took out a medical ice pack, and firmly struck it with his fist. As the pack rapidly turned cold, he carefully applied it to her bruised arm.
“This should help ease the pain a bit.”
Male lead reborn without memories — but he still falls for her.
The person he finds displeasing in this life turns out to be his cherished wife-master in previous life…
Xie Zhi and Fang Xianxing who had known each other for less than three days through a blind date sat in the same car in front of the civil affairs bureau. They had a disagreement and failed to get married.
Xie Zhi immediately took out his phone, slid through his contacts, and randomly selected the next marriage candidate.
The woman snatched his phone and hung up. Looking at his phone wallpaper, she awkwardly changed the subject: “An ancient painting, eh? It looks pretty good, it’s just that the person in the painting looks a bit like me.”
When he heard this, he sarcastically mocked her for being so delusional, completely unaware that, the person in front of him was the reincarnation of Wen Ru, the famous prime minister of Yuan Shun whom he most admired…
