Suppressing her frustrating emotions, Bomi picked up her phone. She often lacked sleep because she worked until late at night. On days like this, even the phone became a substitute for an alarm and she was grateful.
“Hey, Sooyoung.”
-Were you sleeping? I knew it, so your oppa gave you a wake-up call.
Sooyoung, her business partner and college classmate, was on the line.
“Thanks. I was about to get up now. It’s an important day today, right?”
-Get ready and come out not too late. Ugh… I’m nervous.
The tension on Sooyoung’s side was palpable through the phone. Bomi, too, found herself unconsciously biting her lips.
I know you feel uncomfortable with Do Won Group…
“I appreciate the value of Narae Creative. I won’t feel uncomfortable.”
Bomi couldn’t let her personal affairs interfere with her public duties.
The startup company Narae Creative, though skilled, was in a mess in terms of management. Despite meeting a decent investor, ongoing projects were overturned, and they even fell victim to fraud. Accumulating debt and worrying about the company’s future, they received miraculous news at that difficult time. To reduce operating costs for facilities like outlets with high maintenance costs, DOWON Distribution turned to online shopping. They also announced a marketing strategy using augmented reality (AR) for entertainment even in offline spaces. Narae Creative was recruiting companies to implement this strategy.
Narae Creative had developed various metaverse spaces using augmented reality technology, ranging from games to building shopping malls, possessing the skills DOWON Distribution was looking for.
Thus, overcoming tough competitors, Narae Creative became the selected company, signing the collaboration agreement. It was a day of business recovery where their hard work until now paid off.
“Will Hwangdo Construction be involved? Is that okay?”
Sooyoung showed the recruitment notice to Bomi, asking with concern.
The hesitation in Bomi disappeared with the sight of the contract fee she had never touched and the welfare provided by DOWON Group. It was about the present more than the past and the future more than the present.
Bomi wasn’t foolish enough to reject a chance for Narae Creative to survive based on personal feelings.
Hastily preparing, Bomi boarded the bus.
Despite being jostled by the crowded people, anticipation for today’s events swelled her chest, causing a smile to form at the corners of her mouth.
It will work out. Everything will work out now.
Arriving with some time to spare, Bomi looked up at the twin-like towers symmetrically standing in DOWON Group’s building. The logo of Hwangdo, embedded in the left building used by Hwangdo Construction, caught her eye.
Let’s not worry about it.
“I can do it! Han Bomi.”
She couldn’t relax her tension until she signed the contract.
Bomi, as if trying to absorb positive energy, took a deep breath.
Vroom.
Startled by the revving sound of an approaching car, Bomi took a step back.
A sleek, upscale sedan passed closely in front of Bomi.
“Ah… surprised.”
Bomi swept her chest and shifted her gaze to the black sedan standing in front of DOWON Group’s right building. Two more cars followed behind, coming to a stop with well-dressed men who looked good waiting.
Are they executives of the company? The security is quite strict.
Bomi was curious about who this remarkable person might be. Among the lined-up people, she craned her neck to get a better view. Even if they were executives, she wouldn’t have any occasion to meet them as the representative of a small development company. Still, she felt it was necessary to remember their faces.
“Who could it be?”
Usually indifferent to others, Bomi seemed unusually curious today.
As the door of the sleek black car, which seemed to reflect the owner’s personality, gracefully opened, Bomi involuntarily swallowed hard. When the well-maintained shoes-clad man’s long legs came into view, Bomi’s gaze moved upward along the man’s legs.
Ah!
As the man, clad in a navy suit that emphasized his well-built body as if he had just finished exercising, stood up, somewhere, a sigh of admiration escaped. People passing by the building all stopped and directed their gaze towards the man.
His neatly combed hair didn’t allow a single strand to be out of place, and the man’s face was handsome enough to deserve praise as the best work of art created by God.
Thump.
The sound of Bomi’s heart sinking echoed in her ears.
Bomi bit her lip, holding back the sound that was about to escape her, her fingers slipping between her lips.
Unbelievable.
Seemingly oblivious to Bomi’s presence, the man confidently walked through the parted crowd on both sides.
Though there was a chilly impression as if the weather was cold, Bomi knew that face too well.
It was him, the one declared dead five years ago.
“Wonhee… sir.”
Bomi rushed towards the man, pushing people aside as if she were out of her mind.
So fast and desperate like a squirrel, even the security guards momentarily let their guard down.
“Who’s this woman?”
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.
[Note: This story will not specifically point out the male lead’s reincarnation time point; it’s all in the details. Whenever you feel that the male lead is acting strangely, he has most likely been reincarnated.]
