“Hehe, heheeeeeeek!”
[Dashing] Bang!Emily, who met eyes with Berl, dramatically closed the door, as if to shut it off with a force that would make sure it never opened again.
‘What!? What!? Why is Deputy Commander Berl here!? Is this a dream? Why, why in my dream? No, no! Even in a dream, it shouldn’t be like this! What, what should I do!? What should I do!?!’
In Emily’s despairing mind, there was truly a great chaos.
Although she had secretly hoped to meet again someday, it was by no means in such a ruined state, with this kind of sleepwear and a completely dilapidated house.
In front of the bewildered Emily, small figures cautiously emerged from the dilapidated entrance, like delicate creatures venturing into the rough field.
“…Professor Emily?”
“Huh? How did you guys…!”
The girl who appeared upon hearing Emily’s scream was about ten in number.
Among them, the biggest one who came to attend the class, with a visibly tense face, spoke.
“Well… You looked so tired that we waited inside the classroom…”
At that moment,
[Dashing] Ddengddeng.An old clock, not taken away for its worn-out state, chimed.
Looking at the clock, it was clear that the class time for teaching these children had long passed.
That’s right.
There was a reason why Emily, despite her young age, passed the qualification.
Her resume included several years of volunteering to teach children, and this fact was a significant point in her favor for being chosen at such a young age.
Therefore, Director Norzia had specially arranged monthly vacations for Emily for the free teaching sessions.
During those times, Emily was immersed in a deep sleep.
[Dashing] Knock knock.“Count Tungst, Lady Emily, excuse me. We are from the Imperial Black Knights. If it’s okay with you, could you please open the door?”
“…!!!”
The thunderous knocking and voice echoed.
Emily turned her head suddenly to the side and saw her reflection in the broken mirror of the entrance.
A face that had swelled so much due to the deep sleep that she couldn’t even open her eyes and marks on the face that would never be erased, even the pillow marks.
The appearance was so ghastly and suspicious that it was hard to believe how one could recognize it at a glance.
“Professor, it seems to be the Imperial Knights. You need to open the door…”
Emily’s desperate and lost pupils.
Those pupils soon fiercely focused on the child she had on her back.
“Um, can I borrow the little one for a moment!?”
“Yes? Y-yes…!”
The child had no choice but to offer their sibling to Emily with eyes filled with so much blood.
“Are these all the children?”
“Yes!”
“Then it’s true that you’re conducting classes here.”
“Yes, yes!”
Before Berl’s eyes, the soft baby’s dark hair bobbed up and down like a dandelion seed.
Although it was a baby wrapped in a thick diaper, there was a determined will in his serious investigation, intending to give proper answers.
Berl gradually became embarrassed.
“Ahem. Lady Emily. Your arm must be tired. You can put the baby down…”
“Ahbu [Dash]! Gyaaha [Dash]! Ahbububu [Dash]!!”
The baby, pressing its face against Emily’s, roared as if it had become one with her.
That’s right.
Emily’s desperate method was to shield her face with the baby as a shield.
Actually, Berl understood a little.
Her attire was pajamas, and she looked quite exhausted.
According to her sister Marien, visiting an unprepared woman’s house was a considerable breach of etiquette.
‘At a time like this, I feel so sorry. If it weren’t for the urgent mission, we would have recognized her and sent a messenger…’
Berl bowed apologetically.
“We apologize for unexpectedly intruding. Lady Emily. The questions are over. We will leave now.”
“Ahbu.”
“…….”
Thus, Emily, who saw off the knights with the baby, was truly indescribable.
This was the last mansion of the Tungst Viscount.
Broken mirrors, neglected stairs with broken furniture, and even dust that was not even managed due to lack of resources.
This was a place where the traces of loan sharks were rampant and also a place where her true state was exposed.
To have a conversation with a man who made her heart flutter for the first time in her life in such a place.
It was impossible.
The other children, excluding the three who continued to wait for Emily to receive lessons, took quite a long time.
The tears that burst behind the baby’s back didn’t stop.
However,
[Dashing] Knock knock.Someone knocked on the door again.
Regardless of who it was, Emily quickly moistened her parched throat.
As if she had already learned the fact that crying alone wouldn’t change anything.
“Uh, sorry, but next time…”
“It’s okay. Even if you don’t open it. Lady Emily, I heard that you are a wonderful teacher who teaches children for free. I really admire and respect you. We’ll meet again.”
Berl’s low voice resonated in Emily’s chest, holding the child tightly.
And as he finished speaking, the enthusiastic whistling sound of the members and cheers began to be heard.
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…?
