Director Im pulled into the back seat, and Sanha also sat in the back.
Secretary Oh took the front passenger seat, and Secretary Choi took the wheel.
The car started.
“Drink this.”
Despite the scolding, Sanha took out what he had brought and distributed it evenly to the three secretaries.
“Is this what Mr. Kimchi’s girlfriend drinks? Master Magpie?”
Watching the grateful Director Im and Secretary Oh, Sanha said,
“Look at this. They saw and heard everything. What did Secretary Choi say to make them come all the way here?”
“I didn’t say anything.”
“What did he say?”
“He just said that the master hugs and kisses his girlfriend every day, going crazy.”
“Crazy?”
Sanha felt a tingling sensation in his gaze, and Secretary Choi subtly lowered his head.
“I clearly said I’m not your girlfriend, right? Just a while ago, it wasn’t me hugging you, it was the magpie.”
Secretary Choi said.
“Director, you don’t have to feel embarrassed. Seeing the magpie kissing and hugging you, you’ll probably do it more when you’re not seen.”
“What more can I do?”
“Perhaps the magpie would call you a tiger. Hey, Director, you’re a beast. Hahaha!”
In the natural gaze of Secretary Choi, Sanha let out a short sigh.
“The coffee is really delicious?”
It was Director Im, who had been observing the situation.
“Is it?”
Secretary Oh also asked.
“Is yours delicious too, Director?”
Sanha pointed to the grapefruit ade in his hand.
Secretary Choi spoke again.
“Of course, it must be delicious. It will melt gently in your mouth. Your beloved girlfriend must have brewed it with all her heart. Right, Director? Hahaha!”
Responding tiredly, Sanha just sipped his drink through a straw, looking out of the car window.
The three secretaries quietly chuckled, watching Sanha like this.
The reserved Director Im listened to Secretary Choi’s words instead of responding, as he was the head of the group’s main office.
“I will park and go.”
“Okay.”
Guarding the lobby, the standing security guards noticed Sanha and immediately bowed their heads when he entered.
He responded and went inside.
The three people approached the executive elevator.
“Do you see your brother here?”
Leading a group of secretaries were Iseok and Idam.
“Right. Good morning.”
At that moment, the elevator arrived, and the doors opened.
Sanha, Iseok, and Idam stood side by side, and their secretaries entered first.
When Director Im and Secretary Oh tried to get on, Iseok said,
“Isn’t it too crowded now?”
“Indeed.”
Although Director Im nodded, he and Secretary Oh still entered the elevator with Iseok.
Ignoring the annoyed looks from Iseok and Idam, the two secretaries pretended not to notice.
The doors closed, and the elevator began to ascend.
Iseok said,
“The Management Support Team must have a lot of free time.”
“Free time?”
“Getting paid a full salary without doing anything? Isn’t the Management Support Team the most leisurely place in our company? Wow, really shameless.”
Idam and their secretaries chuckled.
Director Im said,
“Yes, we’re living off others. But isn’t that also a skill?”
As if finding it ridiculous, Iseok turned around.
Facing their stern gaze, Director Im smiled generously and said,
“Let’s eat and live off the company. It’s being skillful, isn’t it?”
Iseok and Idam made astonished expressions.
In the narrow elevator, a strange tension arose, but Sanha, looking only ahead, continued to sip his ade.
“Brother, does it taste good?”
Sanha looked at Iseok and smiled.
“Yeah.”
At that time, with a ding indicating the arrival at the 15th floor where the Management Support Team is located, the elevator doors opened.
Iseok quickly stepped on Sanha’s foot as he attempted to exit.
As a result, Sanha, who was pushed off balance, barely regained his footing, but the grapefruit ade in his hand fell to the floor in a disarray.
“Are you okay, Director?”
Shouting, Secretary Choi rushed over.
Exercising, he ran up the stairs, grabbed Sanha’s arm, and helped him up.
“Ah, sorry. My mistake.”
Iseok said.
Standing next to him, Idam and their secretaries suppressed their laughter.
Secretary Choi raised his voice all of a sudden.
“Are you saying you accidentally stepped on our Director’s foot on purpose!”
“Why are you like this, Secretary Choi? I made a mistake.”
“I clearly saw it. Vice President, you deliberately stepped on his foot! Apologize! Apologize to the Director right now!”
“Hey, if you’re good, I’ll give you a punch. Do you know who I am? How dare you glare at me?”
As the atmosphere turned hostile, Sanha intervened.
“Stop it. It was a mistake.”
“…Director!”
“Enough. Go upstairs.”
“Sorry, hyung. I really messed up.”
“Sure. I understand.”
“Indeed, our hyung has a big heart. Well then, see you later.”
Iseok pressed the elevator button.
And as soon as the doors closed, he burst into laughter.
“It would have been better if Gusansha had fallen properly. Oppa, aim better next time.”
“Got it.”
The twins laughed, holding their bellies.
“Stop it.”
Surprisingly, Sanha scolded Secretary Choi instead.
He walked down the corridor, his anger not subsiding.
“I definitely stepped on your foot. I saw it! Because Vice President keeps looking, they’re getting bolder!”
“Yeah. I got it. But it was a mistake. Otherwise, Iseok wouldn’t have let it go.”
“If he didn’t let it go?”
“I’d kill him.”
Secretary Choi laughed contemptuously.
“That’s harsh.”
“Really. So, relax. Got it?”
Rubbing Secretary Choi’s shoulders, Sanha walked to his office first.
“Director is threatening to kill Gwiseok. Does that make sense?”
Looking upset, Secretary Choi turned to Secretary Oh.
“Why wouldn’t it?”
“What?”
To the bewildered expression of Secretary Choi, Director Im, standing next to him, replied.
“It seems plausible.”
“Are you kidding?”
Facing Secretary Choi’s puzzled expression, Director Im smiled generously and said,
“Let’s eat and live off the company. Isn’t that fortunate?”
Iseok and Idam made astonished expressions.
In the narrow elevator, a strange tension arose, but Sanha, looking only ahead, continued to sip his ade.
“Brother, does it taste good?”
Sanha looked at Iseok and smiled.
“Yeah.”
They rushed in an instant, covering Summer’s mouth and forcing their struggling body into the black van.
The van started moving.
“Stay quiet.”
Something cold touched Summer’s neck.
It was a knife.
“…Who ordered this?”
“Go check for yourself.”
Even without asking, it seemed like they could figure it out.
The van turned into a narrow alley not far away.
The once spacious area, perhaps intended for construction, now looked dilapidated and had no match.
Pushed by them, Summer entered inside.
“Come in.”
Sitting on a shabby sofa were the three women: Jin Wo-jeong, as expected, and Jung Ran.
Around them were the big guys.
Ten men with rough appearances, each holding a baseball bat in their hands.
They surrounded Summer.
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
